WORK STOPPED ON
FREIGHT DEPOT

An injunction has been applied for
by T. b. Hendrix and others to pre-
vent the Atlantic Coast Line from
building its proposed freight station
on the site where work has been COM
menced. The objections urged are
that the erection of the station on
the site proposed would be injurious
to the value OF property in the vicin-
ity and would necessitate additional
tracks across Florida avenue. Work
on the railroad Improvements has
been stopped as consequence, and
the matter may be indefinitely held
up.
Asked as to the status of the mat
ter. Superintendent j. F. Council
stated that the railroad had started
to make improvements to the value
of 100000, besides greatly beauti-
flying the grounds contiguous, por-
tion of which was to be turned over
to the city as a park. He also stat
ed that when the work was complet-
ed there would be only two addition
al tracks crossing Florida avenue, 1t
had been the ORIGINAL intention to
place the freight station on site
lust west of Florda avenue, but own
ers of property desired for the pur-
pose, held it at too high a price ana
that site was therefore abandoned.
Mr.. Council intimated that the OPP
position to the railroads plans
might result in an indefinite post
ponement of any change IN the
freight terminals, or removal OF
these terminals to a point removed
some distance from the present ioca'
tion.
The turn affairs have taken Is
viewed with regret by many cltlzens'
and it is not improbable that some
action will be undertaken to recon-
cile the conflicting interests and
bring about satisfactory and amic-
able adjustment.
