preme Court.

The Electrical Railway and the Su-
preme Court.
President Collins of the Electrical rail-
way declined 70 talk when asked by q
MORNING NEWS reporter what steps the
company will take now that the supreme
court has sustained Judge Falligant's in
junction against crossing the Savannah,
Florida and Western track at Gwinnett
street at grade.
MIR, Collins said that the legal counsel Of
the railway, Mr.. Charlton, is out of the city
and he bad not been able to confer
with him since the decision was rendered !;
consequently he was not posted as to the
legal rights Of the company, and did not
care to talk,
Mr.. Collins was unable 10 say whether the
Electrical Railway Company will wait
until the case can be tried by jury and q
decision rendered, which would again have
TO be passed upon by the supreme court, or
whether tho company would be willing to
compromise the case.
Hon. +. G. du Bignon, counsel for the
Savannah, Florida and Western railroad,
said, when approached upon the subject,
that be had nothing to say about the
matter.
Work at the present is about at a stand
still upon the Electric railway. II the in
junction case has TO be tried by jury and
carried up before the supreme court again
before the matter is decided IL will be sew
eral months longer before the railway will
be in operation. People along the line OF

WILMINGTON ISLAND LOTS.

Twenty-six Sold at From S135 to
$35o--Scme of the Buyers.
The sale Of lots on Wilmington Island
on Thursday was about as good evidence of
the increasing value of suburban land as
one could want, The property is what hes
been known for century as Writings
Point, and is situated on bold bluff on the
east side OF Wilmington river, the rear
opening to the sea over q marsh intersected
by small creeks. II is about four miles be-
low Thunderbolt, with which it has COM
muuication by steamer, There are a
substantial wharf and house
for the accommodation OF visitors,
the Eureka club house, aud some other
buildings.
The island is many miles in extent, but
the property offered of course onIy en-
braced that at Whiting's Point, owned by
the Wilmington Island Land and I'm
provement Company. There was not as
large a crowd as was anticipated, but that
was doubtless due to the inclemency Of the
weather. After the party had had the ops
portunity to examine the plats and walk
over the ground Mr.. Dorsett, the auctioneer,
offered the property. Special lots were
first put up, and then the sale continued
from lot to los. The close Of
the afternoons business showed
that twenty-six lots had been sold at prices
ranging from $l35 to $3.50. Among the
buyers were K. J. Kietfer, Adam Kesssl,
David Douglass. j. Grimm. Charles Jemdal,
II. Logan, Capt. J. II. Johnston, Capt. II.
