SHORT LINE ACQUIRES
DESERET NEWS BUILDING
Hartman People Will Occupy
All Floors in the Block by
June |.

The Oregon Short Line has acquired
for its own use the entire Deseret News
building. and after June it will occu-
py all the floors III the structure. All
tenants in the building, except those
occupying the stores on the ground
floor, have been notified to vacato
by May 81, so as TO make room for the
Hartman people.
Whether the building has been pur-
chased by the Short Line or only
leased is not known at this time. Some
months ago report gained currency
that Hartman had bought the News
block. but this was denied at the time
and last night no one in authority was
able to state whether or not the build
ing had peen purchased,
For long time tho Office accommo-
dation for the railroad force has heen
entirely inadequate, Several make
shifts have been made in an effort to
increase the room and facilities, bu'
these have not materially assisted in
lessening the overcrowding. but with
an additional two floors az their dis
posal, the Hartman people should be
amply provided for.

chine as $50, total which he wants
collected from the company Of $3.50. He
says that the accident was entirely the
fault of the motorman who. instead OF
attending to his business. was leaning
over the rail talking TO a lady. He
had n number of witnesses to this fact.
including Officer Burton of the police
c. ?. Nelson. driver OF the city ma
chine, was thrown and injured The
claim agents hsd laughed at Mr.. Raj
