WEIGH IS GOING
To THREE FORKS
BECOMES CHIEF DISPATCHER OF
ROCKY MOUNTAIN DIVISION
OF MILWAUKEE.

MI. (Mike) Welch, who has been
chief dispatcher of the Northern Mon
tana division of the Milwaukee for
three years, left Tuesday morning for
Three Forks where he will assume the
office OF chief dispatcher of the
Rocky Mountain division. The proba-
bility of this transfer has been known
at the local office for some days, but
1t was officially announced yesterday.
The transfer OF Chief Dispatcher
Welch. from this division will be loss
indeed, fact which is keenly apprec-
lated not only by his fellow employees,
but by business interests with which
he has come more or less directly
in contact. Many a grain and stock
shipper will miss his efficient hand
in the handling of their cars in trans
it. 1t speaks for itself that in the
three years of his service here there
has never been a complaint filed by
shippers OF grain or stock on account
of failure to secure sufficient box cars.
Mike" is possibly the most popular
Milwaukee employe in three divisions
and the Northern Montana end is 60
ing to have hard time getting used
to doing without him.
mike" has been in the Milwaukee
service for Is years, having served )
years on the Council Bluffs division
in Iowa before coming west. The
new. position as chief dispatcher Of
the Rocky Mountain division pays q
high compliment to his ability as this
il one OF the most difficult posts on
the Puget Sound lines. The recent
identification of that division has in
creased and complicated traffic to
such An extent that only very ef
ficient chief could be entrusted with
the charge.
e. B. Cornwall, new chief dispatch
er of the Northern Montana division
Of the Milwaukee, succeeding M. J
Welch, arrived here yesterday morn
ing to take charge Of his new duties
He went out to Grass Range yester
day and will visit Hilger, Roy, Wini
fred and Great Falls before becoming
actively engaged in the Lewistown Of

FLORIDA TROOPS
may RETURN
TO THEIR HOMES
IN MARCH

Writing to the Plant City Courier
from Laredo, Lieut.. L. E. Goodrich
writes that the Florida troops may
return about March list, which, of
course, is only hearsay, but there
may be something to it, and we re-
produce a portion of his very inter
,esting letter:
"Rumor has it that the New Hamp-
shire outfit will go out on patrol
duty in a week or SO, relieving one
of the Missouri regiments now out
there. The tour of patrol duty is
generally about six weeks, and the
same rumor has it that the Second
Florida will go out about the first OF
January to relieve the New Hamp.
shire regiment. With this program
Icarried out, it would mean the Sec
ond Florida would not get back to
camp until about the middle of Feb
ruary, and perhaps be around the
/ HlSC VI Midi CH ny Tic ClHic II 10 VI
ldered back home for muster-out. Al
least, this is what the men of the
regiment are figuring on and arr
mostly counting on being back home
by the first of March. OF course
however. this is only rumor anC
dope and has no real bearing OF
what will really happen. Withou
any change in conditions or poll
lcies" it would reasonably be expect
ed that this would be the obvious
program to be followed; but, whei
lit comes to actual orders, it ma,
just as reasonably be presumed tina
home by the first of January or b,
the first of June. The men, to
large extent, have come to the poin
where they think that which please
each one the best, and some ar
stout believers that the regimen
will be back home by the first Of tn
year, because they like to think tina
way and feel that way, and other
insist that it will be spring befor
they get back, because they do no
care, or else care so much that the
are afraid they will not get back be
fore then. Personally, your CORE
, spondent would guess" that it will
, more probably be around the first O
! March before we can expect to re
turn to Florida, although he ha
long since ceased to think" or "fie
ure" just when it will be, as Their
are too many higher up figuring on
. that very thing for him.
