AS forecasted in the Graphic Ol
! last Tuesday City Attorney w. F.
Coleman has filed suit, under instruc
tons OF the city council, against the
st. Louis, Iron Mountain and South
efn Railway company, for ejectment
on the property known as South Com
men, On East Fourth ayelue The
iron Mountain has been using this
ground for depot purposes, and the
real purpose of the suit is to make
the railway company build a new de-
pot or vacate its present property

Eeatedly to erect new depot. and

building to the city council for ap
proval. These were approved by the
council several months ago, but that
has been the last CT the new depot.
