Mton Believed M and St L gains control of Des Moines line
The Des Moines and Fort Dodge road, operated by the Rock Island, is reportedly secured by Edwin S. Hawley and Edwin S. Hooley for the Minneapolis and St. Louis system. Pending this, the M. & St. L. could reach Des Moines and extend to Watertown, boosting Estherville’s importance as a division point and linking to central Iowa coal fields. The arrangement would create a near air-line route through hills, giving the M. & St. L. a direct Des Moines freight and passenger connection via Fort Dodge.
