Simon Cohen Found Guilty.

Ia the case of the state VS.. Simon Cohen
charged with cheating and swindling, the de-
fendant was found guilty in the city court to-
day.
The charge was, that Cohen had sold to
Isador Gelders certain city lot, adjoining the
Chambles Grocery Company on Central Ave. to
which he had no legal title. Mr.. Gelders was
the prosecutor in the case. The court stated
that if the defendant would make restitution
and paw the cost in the case he would release
him from fine of $4,000 in default of which
twelve months in the chain-gang of the county,
was made the penalty. The case was appealed
to the Supreme court and the bond fixed at
100000.
In the case OF Sidney Clare vs. the A. B. & A.
r. r. Co., enjoining them against double track
ing West Ocmu1gee, and making other changes
preparatory for the large car shed and Office
building proposed, the court has made perma-
nent the restraining order and the Railroad
company is virtually estopped from making the
improvements contemplated, and which meant
so much for Fitzgerald.
We do not know what the effect will be II
the Supreme court, to which the case will be
taken, SuStaluS JuuRc w ulPPAC' IL may w n~~
essary for the business men of this city to take
hold of the matter and adjust it rather than
risk the abandonment of the Improvements Plan
ned by the railroad company.
While Mr. Clare would be infinitely better
off-his property many times more valuable
with the i'm provements than it would be with
out them, still, his objections to being bottled
up' are not without great merit.
He owns all of the land in the two quarter
squares across Johnston Street, and east of the
car.shed and depot site, except one lot in each
instance bordering on Johnston Street b y
deepening and broadening the railroad cut along
Ocmu1gee in front Of all of these lots, twelve in
number, and not having control of the lots on
Johnston street, the twelve lots owned by Clare
in the two quarter squares are so hemmed IN
that his property would be worth much less
than if it had the street frontage.
Mr.. Clare contends that be should have
some street advantage that would be denied him
if the improvements were made by the railroad
company, as contemplated. Mr.. Clare owns
also the quarter square north of the road 'front.'
ing Lee street and four of the lots in the quarter
square south CT the railroad, fronting L e.
These lots would have to be turned East and
West also, or suffer damage by the railroad
grade.
The Enterprise is exceedingly anxious to
see the matter settled and the improvements
made. 1t would be distinct loss to Fitzgerald
if the project is abandoned
