AN IHJBS0TI0N FOLLOWS OR AITIH0 OF VALUABLE FRANCHISE.

Stillwell Hand, Who Secure* the Injunction, Is 8aed by the Grantee

for S10.000 Damaeee.

A specie! meeting of City Council wae held oil Thursday evening of last week, at which time the trolley ordinance was

p*Mod on final reading by the following

Yea*—Me**r» Akins,

, Cress well.

Absent or not voting—Mosars. Church, flalpin and Henry. Tbe ordiuauou will be found iu another column. At the luatrnoe of Srilwell II. Hand, a retired merchant, aod an owner of rata, able Ocean street property, a writ of cer. tlorari was served upon officials of the Ocean Street Passenger Railway Co*, pany last Saturday morning, Issued by Vice Chancellor Grey, and returnable on June 4. Tbe company is cited to show cause why the ordinance passed by Council giving tbc company the right of Ocean street, should not- be set and enjoin the company from taking possession of the street. A number of property owners refused to sign the petition for the ordinance, on the ground that the placing of a railroad Upon the street would seriously injure tbelr cottage property and diminish their availability fh* renting. The proposed new road is intended to give the Readiitg a complete conneetiou * with Cape M 4 ? Point, by connecting their steam road and the beach trolley* now owned by it, apd Lf tbe purchase of which tbe Reading gained the only rail connection with tbe Point. Last toaaoa ’ the Pennsylvania surveyed a route to the Point, aod there la some prospect that it Will build a uew line from this city to give it direct connection with the Point in order to oftset tbe advantage {H«se*aod

by tbe Reading.

Tbe Ocean Street Passenger Railway Company baa sued Stllwel! Hand for •10,000 damage* for withdrawing bis signature to tbe consent to allow the road tube built oo Um street. -J Hand recently secured au injnncjicn . from the Court of Cbauoery .tupping ; tbe building of a trolley .railroad, claim- I ing to be the owner of proper!) oo lire ] street, which would be Injured by tbe '

proposed road.

Representatives of the railroad now a]. * legp that be signed the petition to Gam- .j cil to grant the right of way and ob- \ UWd a consnlaralion therefor, which* ' waa a M0 aeswr- ***-”- J > ^

ticket over tbe I>biladel- I

phis aod Reading Railroad. Tho claim

for damage* i» made oo tbe ground* that j thp delay in proceeding with the work of building the new road caused by Hand’s J action will cause them serious lasses and 1 that Hand is guilty of a broach of con- .1

tract.

Without Hand's coneonl tbe company Is short one fool of ground Ur hake legal authority.

Wreck os the Reading. Two persons were injured slightly in a railroad collision between a pass tratuou the Reading Railroad and a coal train at Tuckaboe laa^ Friday forenoon. They were Engineer Daniel Short and Fireman Edward Ross, of tbe pass

train.

Tbe-awcideot was caused by an open switch. Tbe coal train was standing on a siding near the Tnckabne station. The passenger train was nearing tbc station and was running slowly. Tbe engineer of tbe passenger train did not aee the open switch. Instead of his train niug iujn the station, it ran on thsUdlog, striking the last car of the coal train. Engineer Short and Fireman Rose thrown from thalr seats in the angina, and slightly bruised. * Tbe passenger train was from Sea Isle Citv and was wall filled with passenger*.

There was much <

passenger*, but none wsa hurt.
