Refused to Redeem Il.

Onawa, Ia, Jan. 22.--The ques-
tiOn whether or not railroads
must comply with the Iowa stat
utes in regard to the redemption
of railway tickets will be tried out,
during the March term at Onawa.
The statute says that tickets must.
be redeemed within ten days from
the time presented for redemption
and that the passenger need not
deliver his ticket before he gets
his money. In the present case
Attorney J. A. Prichard of Onawa
purchased a ticket for Turin, but
because of the lateness of the
train for which he purchased his
ticket. he made the trip in an au-
tomobile. When he presented his
ticket for redemption it was re-
fused. He has filed petition in
the district court against the Chi.
cago & Northwestern Railway Co.,
not only for the price of the tick
ct, but for the Statutory penalty of
500 besides.

Northwestern Acquires oroune
for New Updike Elevator.

The new Updike grain elevator,
with capacity of 4 100000 bush
els or more, which is to be erected
by the Northwestern railroad,
probably will be located some
where between Avenue G. and the
Wickham brickyards.
Property on both sides of the
Northwestern track between these
points has been bought up by
agents of the railroad recently. A
number of residence buildings on
the track will he torn down or
moved away.
The deal for the property was
made through local real estate
agents. General Purchasing
Agent Cleveland of the Northwest
tern has gone back to Chicago
after spending week in this city.
The main elevator building and
tanks probably will be erected at
Avenue j. The tract of ground
purchased is ample for trackage
for the elevator and other indus
tries that might come TO Council
Bluffs in the future.
