CITIZENS DISCUSSING
RAILROAD INJUNCTION
The Right to Build Elevated
Structure Was Not Involved
in Chancellor's Opinion

There is a great deal Of discussion among
lawyers. and in fact, many business men
regarding the preliminary injunction
granted by Chancellor Nicholson on Tues
day I'm the case OF Daniel Bubenzer against
the P.. b. & W. Railroad Company. The
Injunction in substance was that the rail-
road is restrained from erecting any per-
manont construction upon lands running
southwardly OF the premises Of Bubenzer
which shall interfere with or 0bstruct his
right Of way for ingress or egress to and
from his premises.
The chancellor in his opinion stated that
this case does not involve the right Of the
railroad to cree, the elevated structure.
The case. however. does not necessarily
determine whether or not the railroad
company has the right. ono If the COM
tentions Of salisbury Ponder and Curtis
counsel for Bubenzer. was tina; the rail-
road had not the right to build the struc-
lture in this city. II Is this point that IS
being discussed.
The next move Is the taking Of test.
mony and % is expected that che case vii
be taken to tho Supreme Court 20 deter.
mine whether the injunction Nill be made
permanent.
