move its wood working factory now
located at Chicago, Illinois, to this

this city a large wood working fac-
tory, furnishing employment to a
large number of men, and,
Whereas said factory is to be lo-
cated on land now owned by the said
Chicago Great Western Railroad
Company, and heretofore used by it

nals at Dubuque. said land being sit-
uated partly within and partly out-
side the present limits of the City of
