THE SAN FRANCISCO GALL,; TUESDAY, SEPTEMBER 6. 1910
TALCOTTS GRANT
A RIGHT OF WAY
Southern Pacific Must Pave
Street in Return for the
Privilege
OAKLAND. Sept. s.— After many
months of delay, the Southern Pacific
company has finally obtained a right
of way through the Talcott property,
north of East Fourteenth street in
Melrose along Bond street, for the ex
tension of the Seventh street local
line to .San Leandro. Owing to the
failure to obtain this right of way, the
railroad company stopped several
months ago the laying of tracks for
the extension.
In a deed filed at the coifnty hall of
records, J. R. and Cynthia R. Talcott
and the Talcott land company grant to
the Central Pacific railway, an auxil
iary of the Southern Pacific company,
the exclusive right of operating a dou
ble track road through the Talcott
property. But in exchange for this
privilege the railroad must pave Bond
6treet, on which the line is. to run.-
A provision of the deed compels the
railroad company to macadamize be
tween the tracks and to lay macadam
for 12 feet on either side of the tracks.
As the tracks occupy 24 feet,' this will
simply- leave a six foot strip for side
walks on either side unpaved, as Bond
street is 60 feet wide. It -is also pro
vided that the railroad must grade the
street at its own expense and must
deposit the excavated earth in blocks
17, 18, .19- and 21 of the Melrose Heights
tract, which are. at present below
grade.
It is understood -that work will be
rushed "now on the: extension of the
line, for which more than -a mile* of
track has already been laid, as far as
Central avenue. Thirty houses in the
path of the line^ have yet to be re
moved, but it is believed no difficulty
will be experienced in their removal.
Electric service is rto be provided by
the Southern Pacific on this extension,
which may form a loop with the Stone
hurst branch, or may continue to San
Leandro. Hay ward and on to form a
loop with .the San Ramon line, mak
ing a direct route from Contra Costa
county.

OAKLAND BOOSTERS
PREPARE FOR TRIP
Four Pullman Cars Have Been
Engaged for Journey to
OrovHle and Back
i OAKLAND. Sept. s.— Many requests
for reservations are being made for the
trip .that has been planned by the
progress and prosperity committee of
the chamber of commerce for Sacra
mento and Oroville Wednesday. Four
Pullman cars have been engaged on the
Western Pacific and it is expected that
there will be little room to spare when

ing stops at Hay ward. Niles, Pleas
anton, Livermore and Stockton. At
each of these places the party will be
received by a local committee. The
train will stay two hours at Stockton.

thing occurred, and he was compelled
to call In a veterinarian to have the
horse treated. He is not able to ex
plain the reason""fcr the peculiar van
dalism.
