In important meeting of the property- , along the line of the tunnel over the , k of the Danhury and Nor- walk' railroad at Norwslh was held in the office of Horace E. Dana‘s livery stable on River street, Satur- day. Those present were Attorney Shelton, of the law firm of Stoddard Bishopa Shelton. representing the lbw Yothlew Haven and Hartford Bail- road company. which also controls the Danbury division; Attorney Joseph A. Gray. representing the estate of the late 'James Badden,withWillism is Donn and Horace E.Dann. It wss also expected that George E. Lockwood, owner of the Norwalh Hotel , would be represented, but for some reason he was not. The changes the Consolidated Railroad company contemplates making at the Norwalh end of the town include widen- ing the tunnel to accommodate double tracks. The company claims that the buildings along the line of the tunnel are on railroad property, and some time ago notices of removal were served upon the owners of such property. At Saturday’s meeting maps were exhibited end the coupsny’s position was shown by its et~ torney. Some of the Dean stable buiid~ log will probably have to be torn down. Several feet of the Norwaih Hotel, at the front, is on railroad property and will have to be out of! unless some agreement launched. The widening of the tunnel will encroach upon the basement of the building and take in considerable of it. The same state of affairs exists with the Hadden property. Attorney Gray has made an exhaus- tive search of the town records, going over thetitlee of the building and land all along the disputed line. The Dean property was at one time stables be- longing to the hotel. The land occu' pied by the stables and the Hudden build- ing was formerly owned by the late Charles Thomas, and the building was oocupied‘by him. He sold the prep- erly to David Stevenson, who deeded to the Danbury and Norwelh Railroad ‘eompany a strip of land two rods wide. , When the road was built, the present . Bsdden building stood much nearer the hotel than now, and an agreement was made with the owner of the structure by the railroad company tomcrs it back and build a new foundation when the tunnel was put through. The company did so, but left the building and maintaining wells five feet on the railroad land at the front of the building, running back at an angle to the property line. In doing this Attorney Gray claims that the company gave a tacit right for the building to stand where it is. As an 1 tier of settlement Mr. Gray proposed to Ifr. Shelton that "‘9" the tunnelis widened the Eedden interest will allow the company to undermine the building,tahiug sufficient land for the purpom, but the company must pro- vide eudlcisnt support for the wells of the building and allow it to remain standing over the tunnel. By this plan thobulldiag will remain intact and the railroad company could further its own interests as well. if the building was cut off it would ruin the store occupied by the Hadden saloon and force a change to be made to the entrance of the upper portion of the building. Attorney Shelton received Hr. Gray's ions and gave all present at the mg to understand that the railroad company was willing to meet the pro- perty owners and publlc half way in making these improvements. which would not only benefit the company but thseltyse well. Other meetings will be held in the use fotors is it is desired to have the matter 0! iitlssend rights clearly and thoroughly understood hefcrs the work is commenc- ed. which will probably be immediately after the completion of the changes in lentil Norwalh.
