GRIMES TELLS HIS STORY.
II Shows the Inclined Plane Company Fight
From n Different Angle.

From n Different Angle.
The controversy between the Pittaburg
and Mt. Oliver Inclined Plane Company
and the Pittsburg Inclined Plane Company
was aired again yesterday by the master, D.
f. Patterson. The secretary of the latter
company, j. F. Grimes, took the stand, and
was on it at the close of the hearing. Mr..
Grimes testified regarding the minutes of
the meetings Of his company. He said it
was organized on the 29th OF April, 1889,
when an engineer was elected and directed
to stake out q QUITE, and he did so. A week
later the Pittsburg and Mt. Oliver Company
gave notice of its intentions. Mr.. Grimes
said the engineer OF his company went on
the ground again, but was unable to find
the pins indicating the route as claimed by
the plaintiff company. He alsU offered
the record of its charter to prove
that it had no existence at the
time il claimed to have laid out its route
He said also that President Schultz had
been questioned as to what engineer had
been working for the plaintiff company and
he replied that they had plenty of engineers
at the bridge works. Grimes also deposed
that affidavits had been gotten from people
on the route that they knew nothing of any
work being done in the way of a survey by
plaintiff.
1t is hard to say when the testimony will
all be taken by the master, but, as each
party processes to want preliminary proceed
ings concluded as quickly as possible, the
end will likely be reached soon.
