WORK PROGRESSES
ON FREIGHT LINE
TWenty-third Street Route Be-
ing Constructed Unin-
terrupted.
INJUNCTION is ASSURED.
PROPERTY OWNERS WILL AP-
PEAL FOR ONE, BUT THERE is
MUCH DOUBT AS TO WHETHER
1T WILL BE UPHELD.

Work was resumed yesterday by the
Terre Haute, Indianapolis x Eastern
traction company on its cut through
Glen Miller park for freight line
tracks. The injunction proceedings
that have been threatened did not ma
terailize today. The excavations have
proceeded so that grade has been
reached where the cut is deepest
Even if the company be enjoined from
the proposed route on Twenty-third
street, an unsightly cut will remain
unless the company is required TO
make the fill The Commercial club
that has made an active fight to bring
about an adjustment of the matter is
not interested in the location Of the
line. 1t holds it immaterial where the
line is located, just so it is built.
When quo warranto proceedings
were instituted a number of property
owners and East End citizens who op-
an interurban freight line. raised a
fund with which to employ counsel
for the purpose of carrying the mat
ter into the courts. The prosecuting
attorney was required to enter quo
warranto proceedings as state of.
fetal and not as an attorney for in
dividuals- Since the court has held
against the quo warranto and has in.
timated the proper methoo of pro
cedure will be by an injunction, the
prosecutor has stated such an attempt
will be made. But in the meantime
the company goes on with the work.
Local attorneys claim there i:
strong doubt that injunction proceed
| ings could be upheld, owing to the fac
/ the park is public property. 1t would
be next to impossible to show the plae
| ing of a line of interurban track
would result in specific injury to AM
individual. The law requires injunc
ton proceedings be instituted by SONS
person who has suffered injury.
