Il Hard to Travel Anything
Like Schedule Time With

no WORD AT 2:3O O'CLOCK
some of the Boys Received Passes
which Entitled Them to Travel
by Railroad and Arrive
Tonight.

Tn to 2:3O o'clock this afternoon
,othing had been heard from the sol
aiers on their way to Ottumwa In
.utos, and the committee had had nc
vprd from the Keokuk trucks sent
nm to Ottumwa. 1t is presumed that
Mad roads were struck by both par,
Hes. and that the men coming by
automobile will not get in before
midnight tonight.
The men whose passes allow them
IA come on the train include Frank
WoolIey, Roy Walsh, McManus, Yves
terhoff and several others, and if
their people wish to meet them they
viii find them on the Rock Island
train tonight. 1t is scheduled to ar
rlye at TAO this evening.
Mayor Lotion went to Ottumwa
this morning to be there when the
| aoldiers arrive from Des. Moines. He
will attend to the, transferring OF the
troops.to the Keokuk trucks, and Will
see that they are all comfortably
fred for the trip here.
The committee yesterday practical
" completed its canvass for funds.
The members were given able assist
ance by George S. Tucker and Frank
1. Griffey yesterday In the canvass
of the city. !.
Part of Keokuk's soldiers arrived
In town by train this morning from
Camp Dodge, and the. remainder Will
arrive by automobile tonight from OF
tumwa. The men who have been CIV
en- passes to travel by Train were
members of one battery, and some OF
the boys were able to get home this
morning. There r thirty-four Oh
the trucks bound for Keokuk. The
passes are good until midnight OF De
cember %, it is understood from the
men who arrived today.
A rumor was current at the canton
Iment last night that Secretary Baker
had given permission to send all the
men home by train. This was not
sredited by the officers at the canton
aent. The division officers, however,
Gnctioned the granting Of passes for
.ailroad travel to one Of the batteries.
The soldiers who travelled by auto
buses left Main and Depot streets at
Camp Dodge this morning at 1880
o'clock. Some idea of the slowness OF
travel may be gained from the fact
1t was $40 o'clock before the
buses crossed the river down town
for the drive through East Des MONIES
and thence on to the Ottumwa road.
It was figured that 1t might be con-
siderably after 2 o'clock before they
could reach Ottumwa, although the
chances were just as good that the
buses would make fast time in some
stretches and might make up all that
they lost in getting down from Camp
Dodge to the city.
