that the Atlantic Coas Lino would
bring HUit over the action of the city
officiate In removing thf twelve bar
rels of liquor from the A. C. L. de

When asked for an exprenaion of
opinion regarding this subject, one
of the prominent attorneys in the
city stated that the Coast Line had
not^oeflnltely announced any suit. I
same attorney admitted that
tflero might be grounds for suit, not
gainst the city, but against the of

removal of the liquor under the
protest of the railroad officials, he j
Mated that neither Mayor Kugler
nor Chief Roberts were enforcing a
oity ordinance by their actions, but
State law, and that this would j
eliminate the city as a corporation
from being sued.
