FIGHTING OVER RIGHT OF WAY

The Fruit and Vinegar Co. vs Ann Arbor Rail Road

The Case Has a Bearing Upon the Question of the Separation of Grades in Ann Arbor

The case of the Ann Arbor Fruit & Vinegar Co. against the Ann Arbor railroad, which has a bearing upon grade separation in this city, is being heard in the circuit court. Frank Jones, of this city, and J. A. Gates, of Detroit, appear for the complainant, while Alex Smith, of Toledo, appears for the defendant. The complainant is putting in testimony today to show ownership of a right of way across the Ann Arbor railroad's tracks, which they are seeking to show has been maintained for the past 20 or 30 years. It will take all day to get in their testimony. There is no fuss and feathers about the work of the lawyers, but the case is being closely contested, Manager Ashley is an interested spectator.
