inna. Illinois a Iowa railroad has IS
s,,ed a defiant challenge TO the city
OF south Bend and despite the fact
that the common council ana the
baard Of public works have refused TO
giant right.of way through the city
oyer the route selected by that rail-
road for its eastern extension 10 De-
troit. Mich. via Toledo, the railroad
people put big force OF men AT work
on the proposed Tine. The city re-
fused the right of way because the
route passed TOO near the heart OF the
city and residents made strenuous OBJ
iections. The contention of the COM
pany is that it is not absolutely nee
essary for them 10 secure the sane
tion of the city authorities TO their
proposed route. hut that such course
has been pursued TO avoid any legal
squa btlcs and consequent delays.
The city will uphold its end of the
fight.
