LEGAL BARS TO SOO'S
ENTRANCE LET DOWN
Final Application for Injunction Is De-
MED by Judge Brill.

Further hindrance to the entrance
of the 500 road into ST Paul over it's
own tracks was removed yesterday,
when Judge Brill refused to grant an
injunction to John Mueller and Anna
Neiman restraining the company from
condemning part of their land.
With the dismissal of the injunction,
Judge Brill appointed a commission,
consisting of H. S. Fairchild, N. R.
Frost and John Townsend, to appraise
the land and report its value to the
court.
The new route means tunneling un-
der a number of streets, and applica-
ton to do so will shortly be made to
the council. An ordinance permitting
the tunnels and the crossing of several
streets with tracks has been in the
hands of the council for several weeks,
but it was held up pending the action
of the court.

DIR. OHAGE AND WAR
DEPARTMENT CLASH
Fireman at Army Building Arrested for
Violating Smoke Ordinance.

The war department and the city
clasned in police court before Judge
Hine yesterday when B. Converse, en-
gineer of the United States Army
building, appeared to answer a charge
against A. Arthur, fireman of the
building, for violating the smoke ordi-
nance.
Engineer Converse told Judge Hine
that he had been instructed to in
form the court that the United States
government had charge of the building
and that the government and not the
persons in charge of the engine room
would be responsible for a violation
of the ordinance. Col. Hyde, the quar-
termaster, suggested that If DR.. Ohage
would send a letter to Gen. Kobbe it
would be transmitted to Washington
and the matter attended to.
DR.. Ohage declared that the ordi-
nance must be enforced and that the
army building would not be excepted.
The case, with four other smoke VIOLA
tion cases, was continued until next
Friday
