represented by the board of public works
and the Wheeling Railway Company
brought about early Sunday morning by
the attempt of the boards employees to
change the gradea at the corner Of Twelfth
and Market streets. The reply to the bill
filed by the railroad company when It
secured the temporary injunction will be
made by Messrs Caldwell & Caldwell,
representing the city, to-day probably,
and then there will he an argument on
the motion TO make the injunction per-
manent.
Yesterday. the employees Of the Wheel
ing & Elm Grove company were busily
engaged in laying rails on Twelfth street
on the old grade. This indicates conf
dence that the court will sustain the in
junction and prevent the proposed
change In grade. II the decision goes
against the railroad the Wheeling & Elm
Grove company will be put to consider
able expense in accommodating its
tracks on Twelfth street to the new
grade.
