The Norfolk and Ocean View Rail-

Its Norfolk terminal nearer the center
of the city before next spring. Nego-

plans. it is said, are being considered.
The management has definitely deter
mined to move the depot from its pres
emit location, at the corner Of Henry
and Wide streets. even if only one
block citywards-that is to Church
street. It is likely however, that it
will be moved considerably nearer the
cftys center.
An official of this company said yes
terday to a Virginian-Pilot reporter
that a bonus had been offered the road
by several parties to have the extern
sion run through Certain sections OF the

A franchise will, of course, have to
be secured from the City Councils, II
the intention is TO build a new track
and not use the present tracks of the
Norfolk Street Railway Company. It
is understood that an application for
the franchise will be made shortly.
There Is some talk of extending the
road ua Princess Anne avenue and
thence to some central portion of the
city.
The 2resent location Of the depot,
while. accessible by the Church street
line, Is somewhat inconvenienNy locat-
ed. and the management in removing
the terminal will locate 1t further
dwon town and at the same time at q
more accessible place.
