hood OF pollution OF their waters was
imminent and probable. since the land
had been overfowed by the polluted

employed as sandwich men and in this

Omaha, Neb., July 3.-Wrestling enthusiasts are displaying the liveli- est kind of interest in the match be- tween "Strangler" Lewis, the Wlscon- sin wrestler, and Joe Stecheri, the phenomenal young mat artist, of Dodge, Neb, which is to take place tomorrow at the fair grounds in this city. The match is advertised as for the championship of America, the title to which is now claimed by both grapplers. Stecher's claims are based on his victories over Cutler, Rogers; Hussane, Ordeman, Westergaard and other well-known wrestlers whom he has vanouished within the past year or two. Lewis claims the title on the grounds that he made complete cleanup of the array of talent in the Madison Square garden tournament last winter and later, at Evansville, kept Stecher from putting his shoulders to the mat. even once, in two hours and five minutes.

The report makes no inventory of

there is considerable. The most of the

be ascertained, as it had to be virtually
rebuilt.
Excellent motive power and other
equipment have been provided" the re.
port says, land while the property has
not recovered from the results of its
earlier management. it has come to be
one of the substantial and effective
railroads of the country"
The estimated cost of reproduction
of the railroad includes equipment, but
does not include an estimate of 81
100000 for land; s2,70O,0OO for materi-
ais and supplies and a comparatively
small sum for assessments and for
public improvements. The report says
that the records Of the Kansas City

ties. were issued against an actual
