The present occupants OF railroad
ground between Railroad and Coal
avenues, mentioned In the Nudge an
swer printed above and upon which
the contemplated improvements will be
built, are as follows; Gross, Blackwell
& Co., wholesale grocers, occupying
ground between Railroad and Gold
avenues; NJ. Z. Stamm. commission
merchant; ID. II. Bittner, grain dealer;
l.. Trauer, wool merchant; John A.
Lee, lumber; l.. B. Putney's ware
house; j. s. Beaven, coal, j. c. Bald
ridge, lumber, and w. II. Hahn q Co.
coal, between Gold and Coal avenues.
All these gentlemen were seen this
morning and they stated that they
have not as yet been notified TO move.
Some however, said that they expect
ed to receive the mandate to vacate
sometime next week, but thought that
the railroad company would give them
a reasonable time to move and would
also provide them with ground room
elsewhere.
on the north side OF Railroad avenue,
as far as Tijeras avenue, the railroad
ground is at present occupied by the
uAHFg NHolFsdlt klpAfIJ HApIt anu
warehouse, and by the J. Korber & Co.
warehouse. Neither OF these concerns
have been notified to vacate the
ground, and il Is understood that only
a short time ago Mr.. Putney had as
surance, provided he erected a new and
modern business building, that he
would not be disturbed.
But" said a railroader to-day. "the
railroad company has materially
changed its plans from those contem-
plated some time ago and may make
clean sweep from Tijeras to Coal
avenues. This change, really think,
was brought about by certain people OF
Albuquerque who have been writing
letters to officials by the wholesale, Of
fering certain suggestions and asking
for concessions and leases to the
great annoyance OF all concerned, until
finally a clean sweep may be resorted
to-"
| At the wholesale grocery store OF
Gross, Blackwell & Co., 1t was learned
this morning that the Arm will surely
erect a new business building regard
