THROUGH BY MOONLIGHT.
The Union Street Railway steals II
March Down Twenty fifth
street

After many fruitless efforts TO get from
Seventh to Sixth avenue, the Union street
railway was granted the right of way
down Twenty fifth street by the council
| last evening Since the company OBJ
| tanned partial right of way through the
city, 1t has been battling injunction after
| injunction in its endeayors to connect its
track on Seventh avenue east of Twenty
fourth street with that ON Nineteenth
street and Sixth avenue. 1t was the
original intention of the company to
| come down Twenty fourth street, but the
property owners on that street obtained
an injunction through Judge Smith. and
work on that line was checked. The
company then tried Twenty third street,
when it was confronted with a similar
obstacle Track was laid west to Tween
ty-fourth street, and cars have been run
ming there for some time, but the compa>
ny was willing TO retraCe its steps block
in order to form the connecting link
which has delayed operations so long,
and Twenty third street was tried. The
residents along that street manifested the
same opposition that their reighoors had,
but the railway company was on the alert
and the right of way was granted by the
council last evening.
In order to prevent future Interrupt
| ton through Injunction proceedings.
Manager Hartzell with force of men
came down over the road about | | o'clock
last night, as soon after the right. OF way
had been granted as possible. and track
was laid through the block by moonlight.
A crowd of five hundred interested specs
sators witnessed the dirt fly but the hos
tile residents along the line seemed to
slumber through the operation. and were
no doubt surprised upon awakening this
morning to see the dreaded street car
track in front of their doors
Today Manager Harlzelrs force has
been engaged in completing the task. and
now that all difficulty is overcome, the
track will be laid west on Sixth avenue to
Nineteeth street as rapidly as possible
and then the line will be completed with
the exception of the iron, which is.ex>
pected daily. The track is laid south on
Nineteenth street to Third avenue and
west to Ninth street. the western termn
US and the road will be in operation in a
very short time.
Manager Hartzell is deserving of praise
for his pluck and perseverance, and as
this is the third successful adventure in
midnight track laying, he is quite up in
the business. He avoided two injunc-
lions at Moline in similar manner.
