The East San Mateo Land Company has commenced an action against the Southern Pacific Railway Company to recover the sum of $77,800, for nearly four acres of land at San Mateo used as a right-of-way for its tracks.

The franchise expired in August 1910, and now the successors in ownership, the East San Mateo Land Co. make a demand for $77,800, the alleged value of the property at this time.
