CLASH BETWEEN RAILROADS
Omaha Bridge & Terminal Company Gets
After Union Padific.
SWEARS OUT A TEMPORARY INJUNCTION
Trouble Arlnc * Over Hurt's nonil'fi
Urnlrc In I'ut In n HrlilKe nt
Fifth Avenue nn l Four
teenth Street ,
The Omnha Bridge & Terminal Hallway
company secured from Judge Green of the
district court Into yontorday afternoon a
temporary Injunction restraining the Union
Pacific Itallroad company from Interfering
with Its tracks at Fourteenth street and
Union avenue. This action on the part of
the Terminal Hallway company IB one re
sult of the determination of the Union Pa
cific to put in ita now brldgo at Fifth avenue -
nuo and Fourteenth street over Indian creek
despite the Injunction proceedings brought
against It by the city.
For two days past the Union Pacific rail
way has had several largo gangs of work
men making tbo necessary preparations for
the erection of the new bridge. In order to
comply with the location of the new struc
ture a readjustment of the tracks on Union
avenue was necosoary and the Union Pa
cific is placing Its old track further to the
northwest. It has also nearly completed the
laying of n second track along the avenue
from Ninth street to the transfer depot.
The readjustment of the tracks make It
necessary for the Union Pacific to put In
fresh crossings across the track of the Ter
minal Railway company at the bridge over
Fifth avenue. To forestall this the Terminal
railway people yesterday afternoon placed
a big switch engtno on lln track at the point
that the Union Pacific desired to make the
crossing and In addition secured the tem
porary restraining order from Judge Green
just before court adjourned for the day.
The order Issued by Judge Green restrains
the Union Pacific "from tearing up or re
moving the tracks of the plaintiff from the
Intersection of Fourteenth street with Union
avenue , or along any portion of Its right
of way upon and near Fourteenth street , or at
any point where Its said right of way
crosses Union avenue , nnd that the defend
ant be enjoined and restrained from crossing
Dlalntlff's railway tracks with any track of
Its own ' or in any manner removing or
changing from the present position the
rails of plaintiff , and that the defendant
bo enjoined and restrained from Interfering
with plaintiff In the repairs of its track
along Fourteenth street , or near Fourteenth
street and Its Intersection -with Union avenue
In eald city of Council Bluffs. "
The Injunction was served shortly after
5 o'clock last evening by Deputy Sheriff
Slead on the foreman in charge of the men
at work on the brldgo.
I'oIii < nt Innne.
Early last spring the question whether
the Union Pacific had not forfeited Its rights
on Union avenue by alleged failure to com
ply with the provisions of. the ordinance |
granting It a franchise on the thoroughfare
was brought up before the city council. Tlu j
matter was brought up through a dispute
between the city and the Union Pacific aa
to the bridge which the city had ordered
built over Indian creek at Fifth and Union
avenues. The railway company wanted It
built one way nnd the city ordered It erected
In another manner. In order to try to
bring the railway to the city's side of the
controversy the question of the company's
rights on Union avenue was brought up and
after the matter had been pending some time
the city solicitor was Instructed to have
the question taken Into the courts nnd set
tled there. About thlo time the Union Pa
cific decided to build a second track along
Union avenue and in order to do so asked
that it bo given permission to build its
new bridge as ordered by the council. The
aldermen became fearful that by granting
this permission the city would waive Its
claim to Union avenue and refused to grant
It and injunction proceedings against the
Union Pacific were Instituted In the district
court. Ths suit was recently transferred
to the federal court , where It Is now pend
ing.
Clt-y Solicitor' ! ) Opinion.
City Solicitor Wadaworth stated yester
day that he was personally glad to see the
Union Pacific putting In Its new bridge , as
the old one Is unsafe nnd a new structure
badly needed. He said he could not see how
the railway company could hope to gain any
thing for KB rights on the avenue by reason
of going ahead with the work , as the In
junction suit is pending and this will save
the city from a waiver of any of Its claims
In the premises. The company is doing the
work at its own peril and If the outcome of
the Injunction suit should bo adverse to the
Union Pacific It Is doubtful whether the rail
way company would have the right to re
move the now brldgo or tracks and whether
the same would not become the property of
the city ,
The preparations for the erection of the
new brldgo show that it will cross Fifth
avenue at a greater slant than the old one
and that the south corner of the new struc
ture will cut Into the north side of Fifth
avenue about fourteen feet , extending out
pretty close to the street car tracks. This
will throw the crossing with the street car
tracks a few feet west of the bridge ,
whereas the crossing Is now very nearly In
the center of the old bridge.

The Sunday working barbers gained a
signal victory in the district court yester
day , the jury In the case of the State of
Iowa against Fritz Bernhardl , proprietor of
the Giond hotel barber shop , bringing In , a
verdict of acquittal. Ilernhardl , along with
a number of other barbers , had been ar
rested at the Instance of the Barbers' Pro
tective association , charged with violating
the Sabbath by keeping his shop open and
plying his trade on a certain Sunday. At
the hearing before Judge Aylesworth in the
superior court Bernbardt was found guilty
and fined $1 and costs. An appeal was
promptly taken to the district court. Hern-
harill'a defense yesterday was that sharing
on Sunday was a necessity to many men
and the Jury evidently was of this opinion ,
as It brought In a verdict of not guilty after
being out a little over a quarter of an hour.
A similar case against F. B. Silvers , the
proprietor of a barber shop on Pearl street ,
is set for Saturday of next week.

Aldermen Tnkc n Trip Over tlic Itoulc
to the Lnltc.
The aldermen met ns n committee of the
whole yesterday morning and took a trip
over the proposed route of the
Lake Mnnawa & Manhattan Beach Hallway
company , which has been organized to PX-
teud the line of the old motor company
from Its terminus on Main street to the
lake. The now corporation expects to build
Its line on a right of way acquired cither
by purchase or condemnation , but In order
to make this private right of way available
It will bo necessary to cross a number of
streets , avenues and alleys and permission
to do this has been nskexl of the city coun
cil.
After making an inspection of the pro
posed route the committee of the whole held
a short session at which it decided to refer
the matter to a special committee consist
ing of Aldermen Sayles , Cnsper and At
kins , with Instructions to prepare nn ordi
nance nnd submit the same when drafted to
the committee of the whole for its further
consideration.
To this committee was nlro relegated the
task of Investigating the right and author
ity of the city council to grant a corpo
ration such ns the Lake JInnawa & Man
hattan Bench Hallway company permission
to cross the streets contained la Its re
quest.
There is considerable doubt in the minds
of the city fathers whether the Lake Man- '
awa & Manhattan Beach Hallway company's ,
proposed road can be properly construed to ;
bo a "commercial railroad" and for this I
reason the aldermen have serious misgivings !
as to their power to give the corporation ;
any rights to cross the streets of the city.
The general opinion among the aldermen Is
that the now corporation is practically on
the same level ns any street railway com
pany and that in order to secure the right
to cross the streets along Its right of way
It must go before the voters nnd obtain
the necessary franchise. This , H Is claimed ,
Is especially true If the now corporation In
tends to operate Its trains by electricity and
not with steam power. In the former case
It would bo necessary for the company to
erect poles nnd string wires and the law
strictly provides that no corporation shall
be given authority to erect poles or string
wires without first securing a franchise by
the vote of the people.
The streets over which the Lake Manawa
& Manhattan Beach hallway company asks
permission to cross are ns follows : Across
and along Sixteenth avenue from the foot of
Main street to a point seventy feet from the
northwest corner of the Kansas City , St
Joseph & Council Bluffs Hallway company's
depot grounds and also over nnd across
Eighteenth , Nineteenth , Twentieth , Twenty-
first. Twenty-second , Twenty-third , Twenty-
fourth Twenty-fifth and Twenty-ninth ave
nues , between the east line of Sixth street
and the west line of Main street or Fourth
street and over and across all the eaet am :
west' alleys In blocks 7 , 8 , 13 , 11 and 10 In
Hughes & Dontphan's addition.
The matter Is to come up for notion at
-he meeting of the city council next Monday
night.

ore not purely an agricultural college. They
ntlraato that the terra as applied to the col-
cgu was the result of a mistaken notion
hat the farmers of the state would be
pleased to have the word "agricultural"
used and e&y that the Iowa farmers have no
such fancies.
