The work was stopped as soon as the
city officials became aware Of il first
By a squad Of policemen and later By
an injunction. hastily drawn up by city
attorney Martin s. Villas, and signed By
Judge r. L. Waterman.
This move By the Central Vermont
Is designed, evidently. 20 checkmate the
move made by the city some weeks ago,
when the street commissioners took pos
session 81 the foot Of College street 70

Early yesterday morning force Of
vorkmen about 40 IN number suddenly
appeared at the club house wharf and
began 70 extend the two tracks west 81

wharf. Reaching the southern boundary,
the workmen began the construction Of
a trestle across the foot Of College street
extension At the waters edge, 20 ac-
eommodnte the westermost tracks, the
intention being TO span this property and
reach the wharf south Of the street.
which is the property desired BY the city
for its public wharf and for the pos
sessiouship Of which sequestration pro-
eecdlnga have been started.
The tresfle work had been completed
nearly two thirds Of the way across

Barnes was the FIRST city official to learn
what was going on and he notified Alder
man C0wIes, who IN turn notified the
mayor and city attorney Villas.
Alderman Cowles said that when he
told the mayor. the latter exclaimed
II am glad Of IT, and brought his
fist down on the table vigorously
There seems 70 be a difference Of opin-
ion al this point who made the next
move City attorney Villas says be or.
dered ont two policemen TO stop the rail
road force from proceeding further and
be began work on the injunction. while
the mayor says be did. besides ordering
the city attorney TO get uu the iniune-

At any rate Mayor Burke and three
policeman went down to the foot 81
College street and stopped the work and
remalned in possession while Mr. Villas
drew up the prayer for the injunction.
which was granted. by Judge F. /. Wa
terman, who also signed the iniune
tiou, the same being signed by Deputy
Sheriff Todd yesterday afternoon.
The injunction prohibits the Central
