WANTS MANY THINGS

Bearing out the persistent sugges-
ton by City Attorney Pollard that
me southern Railway company would
yleld nothing to Richmond, that COM
pany yesterday through It's Richmond
lawyers, declined to accept the pro-
position made by the city through It's
/ city attorney, its city engineer and its
chairman Of the council committee on
utilities, and members of the street
committee, Captain Morgan r. Mills,
concerning the wideni0g Of Fourteenth
street, so that convenient and com
Portable approach might be had to
the north side Of Mayo bridge.
Heretofore, pending this determine
ton upon the part Of the railroad
company the impression has spread
broadcast that the negotiations would
prove satisfactory to all parties con-
cerned.
The result is Disappointing to the
city council and to the people of the
city of Richmond.
The story of the proposition In
nutshell Is this:
When the Mayo bridge was built,
through an oversight no arrange
ments were made for the widening OF
the approach. so that congestion
might he avoided. / was. later be-
4tpNFd hAtG NtulIitt IL IAGtttRNiAN Loilpdi
owning much property a that point,
would get into the public spirit OF
the occasion and help the city in its
efforts to give to the people of Rich
mond suitable passage way from
the north end of the bridge.
Recently the company removed its
passenger station to the Main street
station. and is now In the act of razing
the old passenger station. in the place
Of which 1t will erect a freight depot.
This freight depot, according to the
plans of the company Is to abut upon
Fourteenth street, directly into the
street car tracks.
The city willingly conceded the
company many rights II agreed that
certain privileges for additional track
age on Virginia street be granted, and
it assumed all costs Incidental to the
construction OF a concrete bridge over
the run" where a wooden bridge
now exists.
The city simply wishes few feet
along Fourteenth street for the pur-
pose of diening that thoroughfare.
The company declines TO accede to
the suggestion. unless the city grants
innumerable demands for crossings at
grade and other things.
The letter from the local counsel
the street committee az its next meet
ing, and from that body it will go TO
the council,
There is little chance that the city
will accept tfhe proposition of the
Southern, and every indication points
to the fact that the case may get into
the courts.
In the meantime there are many
business men along Fourteenth street
between Main and Cary ''up in the
air" II Is believed that the street
along that block will have to be wild
ened eventually The longer it is put
off the heavier the expense.
The regular meeting OF the street
committee is fixed for next Monday
The report of the subcommittee Will
be received at that time. and VIII
probably be reported to the special
meeting of the board of aldermen
that night.
Then the WOO will begin. to fly
