DISPUTE OVER A
 STRIP OF LAND
Leads to Injunction Proceedings
 in ChanCery Court
GILREATH MINING COMPANY
Against The Sloss Iron and Steel Com pany-Latter Claims Former is Operating Narrow Guage
 Road on Their Land

A temporary injunction was yesterday issued in the ehancery court on the petition of the Gilreath Mining company restrain ing the Sloss Iron and Steel company from interfering with a certain narrowgauge railroad connecting the mines of the first named company with the Birmingham Min eral railroad, near Irondale.
 The injunction was directly the result of the arrest of James Speak and II. C. Gore, employees of the Gilreath company, which was made at the instance of the Sloss company growing out of certain alleged wrongful acts on the part of the defendants, who were charged with tres pass.
 While the petition on which the injunc- ton was issued was withheld from publi- cation, it is understood that the milk in the coconut' is narrow strip of land over which the narrow-gauge runs.
 Dispute Over the Track
 It seems that the track was originally built by the Gilreath company and was used until the suspension of the mines some months since. A short time thereafter the Sloss company opened a small mine in the

 A short time since the Gilreath company reopened it's mine and yesterday the Sloss company track was cut loose from the mar row-gauge road, leaving the Sloss com pany without means to get it's product to the Birmingham Mineral tracks.
 As soon as this was made known to the officers of the Soss company, warrants were sworn out for Speak and Gore charg- ing them with trespass which in turn led to the injunction proceedings.
 It is stated the Sloss company claims that the Gilreath company has no right to operate its track over the narrow strip of land, while the latter company contends that the right of way over the strip was acquired when the narrow-gauge road was first constructed.
 Messrs. Speak and Gore were released on $100 bond each, which was quickly made

There has been no further outbreak among the striking miners at Ishkoodl since Saturday night, put that disturbance has played havoc with the working of the mines. The output al that time was abont ninety cars day, almost the full capac- ity, but the miners, especially the new ones took fright after the shooting, and neaSly all of them have quit Only fifteen or twenty cars were gotten out yesterday
 Te Robinson Mining company received another carload of imported miners yes terday from Columbus, Ga, and they were taken at once to the mines. Nothing has been heard as to their reception.
 The company has adopted a plan of bringing the new men into the city every night to sleep, and taking them out again in the morning. That is, as many of them as want to work.
 The coroner's jury, which has been inves- tigating the cowardly shooting of last Sat urday, will meet again today at noon, and it is supposed that they will render their verdict some time today.

---------- FURNISHED APARTMENTS
Scored a Hit at East Lake-"Why
 Smith Game Back" Tonight

There was another big house at East Lake last night to see the Chapman-War- ren company, and if applause is any cri- terion of appreciation of artistic efforts, then the audience was "ticlded to death." There was almost one continual laugh dur ing the entire performance, and Furnished Apartments" made an excellent hit. It was staged and acted better than on Monday night, and in-fact last nights performance was equal to that of a regular dollar show.
 This company is certainly meritorious and the class of entertainment is clean, wholesome and far from the trashy variety common at summer theaters. The bill an- nounced for tonight is Why Smith Came quest.
