Why Work on the New Building Has Not
Been Started.
Some surprise has been expressed on
account OF the delay in starting the
erection OF tho new passenger station OF
the Pewiky ut the foot OF Eleventh
street. Chief Engineer Becker, of tho
road, is authority for tho statement that
none OF tho contracts have yet been let.
The reason for the delay is said to be
the unwillingneas OF the railroad com.
pany to purchase the property OF Mrs.
Elizabeth Weisart, fronting on tho rail-
road, above the present STATION build.
ing. Mrs. Wcisartis willing TO sell, but
the attorneys OF the road are not greatly
impressed by the validity OF her title 10

"squatted" on this ground a number Of
years ago when she was forced 10 vacate
other ground above hcr present loca-
ton. 1t mad previously been occupied
by blacksmith, ami belonged TO the
city, but there was no opposition to Mrs.
Wcisart occupying it, and by long occu-
pancy she now claims squatters' title.
While Alfred Caldwell was city solicitor
she paid rent to the city. but since he
lett the Office she has not been paying
rent. 1t is the general opinion that the
city still owns the property.
