vent the execution Of any such threats.

The Only Injunction of Judge Stowe
Upon the Suburban.
GRADE CROSSING PRECAUTIONS.
Rapid Trials, Decisions and Sentences in

THE NEWS OF THE COUNTY COURTS

Judge Stowe yesterday handed down an
ginia and Charleston Railroad Company
against the Suburban Rapid Transit Com
pany. The suit was brought to restrain the
defendants from crossing, at grade, the
tracks of Pittsburg, Virginia and Charles
ton Railroad at South Eighteenth street.
Judge Stowe in his opinion on the motion
for an injunction said that, assuming, as he
does, that under the law the defendant
company has a right to cross the tracks of
the plaintiff at grade and at the
place it proposes, all that
the Court could do is to require the defend
ants to adopt such regulations as to the
structure of the road and the general man.
agement of the cars as may seem most likely
to afford the greatest protection to the pub
lie. As no objections were made as to the
manner OF construction OF the defendants
road, the only matter for consideration at
present wac as to what regulations should
be required on the defendants part in the
care and management of its cars at the
crossing; Continuing he said that if
BraGsSs to f0r fa oars sfop vbes ee

road, a few feet from the tracks O. the lat
ter, and compel the conductor to go forward
to the railroad tracks, before attempting to
cross, for the purpose of discovering
whether there were any approaching trains
which might endanger the safety of the car
it would seem the highest degree of safety
possible under the circumstances would be
arrived at. By the plaintiff company keep
ing watchman at the crossing and the de-
fendant company carefully regarding the
regulations the Court thought all would
have been done they had any right to re-
Quire. Until there was reason to believe the
defendant would not in good faith carry out
the provisions, no injunction would be
granted, and the motion was refused.
