At tho time of last argument tho
railroad attorneys claimed that a city

powers to enter into contracts like tho

McCaulley.
Tho trial jury 'found In favoy of the
city and tho case was on appeal. Tha

Sweetwater as well as to other con
tracts with various roads.
Tho case wbb a peculiarly compli-
cated ono Tho railroad has been
known nt various times as tho Colora
do "Valley railway the Panhandle &.
Gulf railway and" the Kansas City
Mexico & Orient railway. Tho city of.
Sweetwater has .endeavored throughout
to bold the company to original con
tracts made with the first company.
The' railway company contended that
although tho name' of Sweetwater was
placed In the original charter as the
place for the shops and offices this
did .not neccBsariiy mean that they
should be permanently located at
Sweetwater as the law gives tho rail-
way company the powor to amend the
charter.
