OCEAN VIEW PROPERTY SOLD
A Philadelphia Syndicate is Now
the Owner.
TRANSFER MADE YESTERDAY
A Quarter of Million of Dollars to
Be Invested in improvements at
the View. Branch Lines of
Road to Be Operated For
the Trucking Business.

Some days ago The VIRaINIAS stated
TINT the Ocean View railroad and hotel
property had been sold to syndicate
OF Northern gentlemen. THE VIR-
GILMAN can say this morning that the
formal transfer of the property was
made yesterday and that the price paid
was $4,000.
The purchasersIgare the following
moneyed men of Philadelphia: Charles
ii. Barrett, VIM. Barrett. Jr., james
Goodwin and Il. II. Treat, who pro-
pose to spend $3.50, 600 on improve
ments. The hotel. other buildings and
the grounds will be improved and
beautiied upon plans and specifications
prepared by Mr.. Moser. the architect.
Work will be commenced next week
and as rapidly as possible the roads
VIII be changed to standard gauge
electric line.
The fower fplant will cost $50, 600
and VIII be located at Ocean View to
enable the company to have electric
lights for grounds and buildings. 1t
is understood that all of the improve
ments will be completed by June LIST,
when trips will be made by elegant
cars every fifteen minutes. 1t is thought
that the fare will be not moro than IF
teen cents for the round trip.
In addition to the main line fr ON
Norfolk to Ocean View the new IN an.
agement will build branches through
out the trucking section and connect
with the Norfolk aud Western railroad.
These branches will be for the purpose
OF bringing truck into the city.
Ocean View will be run as winter
and summer resort, and $780, 900 will
be spent ut once in improvements. 1t
is further said that this will be only q
beginning OF tho improvements to be
made. There is no doubt that real
estate along the line of the road will
receive great boom aud many subur-
ban houses will be erected by residents
OF the city.
