NORFOLK RAILWAY FIGHT
A Bitter Campaign on Between the Two
Rival Companies.
Especial Dispatch to The Times.


NORFOLK, VA, June 7.-Mr. II. X
Wocott this morning strenuously asked
Judge Alan r. Hanckel, sitting in Chan
cellor Martins stead, to issue a manda-
tory Injunction compelling the Bay Shore
Electric Railway Company to stop oper-
ating and to pull up the track in the
night time laid along Church Street. upon
which the property of the Virginia Place
Company, Mr.. Wolcotts nominal prin-
cipal, abuts.
Mr. Wolcott told about what the news
pal ers called Mr.. Pages coup, and ex-
planned that this French word is pro-
nounced COO Mr.. Page sat in court
smiling as usual, but Mr.. Wolcott was
not doing any cooling himself. He was
throwing the hottest sort of hot shot into
the Bay Shore people All Norfolk be-
lieves Mr.. Wolcott is fighting in the armor
of the Norfolk Railway and Light COM
pany, but he did not raise his visor to-
day, and was entered under the Park
Place Company's colors.
The Bay Shore has the sympathy OF
the populace to a very large extent. The
Bay Shore people. it will be remembered,
laid some 1000 feet OF track In the night
time. paralleling that of their rival and
stunned the latter so that for day or
so they went about like rooster that
has had feathers burned under his nose.
or cat which has had its feet creased
and forgot where it lived.
The Railway and Light Company folks
have walked up and bitter battle is on.
They have reduced the fare from any
rart of Norfolk to Ocean View to 10 cents.
This move will make trouble for their
rival, as all may see.
Judge Hanclzel granted temporary
Injunction until the case may be heard
on its merits. restraining the Bay Shore
from operating its Church-Street tracks
ar building more. The tracks, however,
NAV remain.
