HHXU HERE is contest on between

Company and the Seaboard

Company and the Seaboard
Air Line.
1t appears from surface indications
that the Belt Railroad is determined
to preempt and occupy entirely cer-
tain of the streets upon which the city
has granted the Seaboard Air Line
the privilege of laying tracks and the
outlying territory the Seaboard asked
of the county.
Yesterday great force of men was
at work on Thirty-second street, be-
tween Avenue E on the Southside and
Tenth avenue on the Nortnside, laying
two additional lines for the Belt Line.
This street is already occupied with
one track by the Belt Line. Yesterday
they put in two additional tracks, one
on each side of the. old track, in this way
practically occupying the entire street
Mr. George H. Clarke, general mantser
Of the Belt Line, when asked last night
about the matter, said he had no state
ment to make, and declined to be quoted.
One of the mon engaged in the work,
however, said that Thirty-second street
was outside of the city limits, and that
the Seabc ard had not yet obtained any
rights to occupy it. The intimation was
that there would be no room left on this
street for the Seaboerd when the pres
ent tracks were competed. 1t would seem
that the Belt people are up in arms and
determined t. shut the Seahoard Air Line
out If possible.
The Birmingham age-herald. [volume] (Birmingham, Ala.) 1902-1950, 1902-05-30
NONE IN THE CITY.

No tracks were laic by the Belt Line
yesterday within the city limits, although
1t was rumored that they were to ex-
tend their lires down Avenue A and oc-
cupy this street between Thirty y-eecond
and Twenty-seventh streets. In order to
ordered the chief OF police to put Of
ficers on guard and keep them there day
and night to prevent the Belt Line from
building additional tracks within the city
limits upon streets v hich the Mayor and
Board of Aldermen have granted to the
Seaboard Air Line.
No one connected with the Seaboard
Air Line with authority to speak was in
Birmingham yesterday, and no statement
could be gotten. II was learned however,
that probably Vice President and General
Manager Barr would return to Birming-
ham In few days to personally represent
the interests of the scabonrd here.
FAILED TO AGREE.
IT wah learned last night that President
wrliams of the Seaboard and Mr.. Atkin-
son. the principal owner of the Birming-
ham Belt Railway, were In conference to-
vether In New York several days ago.
It is very evident that they failed to
reach an agreement as to the Seaboard
Air Line either acquiring or making use
DALI Roi
Williams of the Seaboard and Mr.. Atkin-
son of the Belt have the reputation of
being hard fighters, and it would seem
from Yesterdays work on the part of
the Belt in laying quick tracks with
practically no grading, that a contest of
no mean proportions is on, and that the
Belt officials are determined to give the
seaboard as much trouble as possible.
II was said last night that the Belt
neople have several cars of rails and
cross ties on hand ready to continue work
this morning.
POLICE ORDERED OUT.
Several police officers were stationed at
the intersection of Avenue A and Thirty
second street at midnight last night, with
instructions to arrest any Workmen who
attem pied to lay any railroad track with
in the city limits.
The county officers, so far as could be
learned, have had no instructions, and
perhaps the matter will be brought before
the Board of Revenue by representatives

The Northwestern R'y ran an
excursions from nearly every di-

to the encampment. For some
reason the country west OF Huron
was utterly ignored. 1t could
not be said that we were not in

the state guard were from towns
west OF Huron. From Pierre and

HORRIBLE DOUBLE TRAGEDY

Grand Forks P%laindealer: CHASTITY!
Most horrible! might be the terms to
express, in a measure, the shocking
and double tragedy which occurred at
midnight Saturday last, when the
dead bodies Of Conductor and Mrs.
Charles Mccormick were found in the
bathroom of their house, 1921 Univer-
sity avenue 1t is the opinion of the
attending physician and others who
viewed the bodies, that Mr.. McCor-
mick was the first to succumb to a
poison which was found in a jug of
beer in the bathroom, all symptoms
harmonizing with the potency of the
drug. The body of Mr.. Mccormick
%was'found rigid at the time of the
examination, a further evidence of
death previous to that OF his wife,
who was in a state of comparative
relaxation. Mr.. Mccormick was
popular among railroad men and all
others who knew him, and was known
to be rational and evenly balanced in
every particular. He was one of the
most trustworthy employees of the
Great Northern system. Mrs. McCor-
mick was formerly Miss Buckly, of
this city, her mother being the pro-
prietress of the old Pioneer hotel.
The bodies were taken to Lakota for
interment.
