OFFICIAL
TO FACE AN
INJUNCTION

Senator Frank Gavit, the president
of the Gary & Interurban Railway
company, minated today that an in
junction would be asked restraining
the city officials of Gary from interfer-
ing with the construction of the lines
of the company eastward on Fifth ave-
nue..
The complaint will probably be filed
in the Lake superior court today The
action is the result of the traction war
that is now being carried on in this
region.
The complaint relates that the city
officials of Gary have ordered the po-
lice department to interfere with the
construction of the line, eastward on
Fifth avenue, and setting up the Gary
& Interurbans claim to rights on this
street
1t is also rumored that the city
would file an application for injunc-
ton restraining the Gary Interurbau
from proceedings with the construc-
ton of its line on this street.
