SUIT IS BROUGHT AGAINST THE CITY

lohn Evans Asks that Damages from North 14th Street Vacation be made $7,500.

FORFEITS CLAIM TO $4,500

PROPRIETOR OF QUAKER CITY MANUFACTURING COMPANY ALLEGES HE IS DAMAGED BY PAN HANDLE FENCE.

John. Evans, of tho Quaker City Manufacturing Co., through his attorneys, Jessup & Jessup, has brought unit against the City of Richmond for $7,r00 in reward to tho vacation of "North 14th street. Mr. Evans complains that the vacation of North 14th street was not nlons the lines which tho plat attached to the petition, for the vacation of that stroot. designated in the original. He holds that the award of damages y the Hoard of Public. Works to the jextent of $1.."00. is not sufficient, as the Pennsylvania railroad has fenced loff more territory than was understood from the plat, and thereby inconveniences him in the discharge of his Inisinossi. The suit carries a spceal signirb cance, as it will determine the liability It f the eiiy for the action of the railroad company in fencing off more land than was understood by the city. In bringing this suit Mr. Evans puts himpolf in the hands of the Court so fains damages am concerned. He forfeits all claim to the $!,:0o allowed by the Hoard and runs his chances of pelting the amount of his suit.

City Clerk Tapgart was instructed to advertise for bids for the improvement of North 12th street, from Main street to North E street, at the regular meeting of the Hoard of Public Works yesterday. The street will be improved by the construction of cement curbs, gutters and sidewalks, and the installation of storm sewers. The cost will be approximately $r.000, and will rival the improvement of North 11th street recently completed. Hids will also be asked by the city clerk on the order of the P.oavd for the construction of a sewer between South 20th and South 21st street between Main and A streets, for which a resolution was recently passed, the assessment roll approved, etc. Hids for the grading, graveling and bouldering of North V street from 1 fit h to 10th street, which has been delayed frequently, will be asked. Since the appearance of the Hagenbeck circus this thoroughfare is said to be in a sad condition.

I Publishers' Press! New York, Aug. S. It is reported tonight, that the New York county grand jury, which has been investigating the reason for the high pric? of ice in this city, and the alleged combination to maintain and force tip the price of

fthe commodity, has practically decided ;that there is no evidence of criminal

conspiracy along these lines and that it will, tomorrow or Fridav. pass up

to Supreme Court Justice Otto Rosnlsky. who instructed it to conduct the .inquiry, a presentment setting forth jits views to the effect that no crim? , has been committed. This action of the grand jury was (forecasted practically before it ever t began its inquiry, when District Attorney Jerome publicly announced (that he, himself, had investigated the matter, and believed that the laws of supply and demand were alone respoui sible for the increased price of ice. I It is reported that the prominent ice dealers of this city, who testified in the grand jury room, today agreed that the demand for ice within the (corporate limits of Greater New York (exceeds bv 1m;, 000 tons, the supply.

the latter being estimated on the consumption for the next four weeks as arrived at by a ten year average. The

dealers said that there were only about half a million tons in sight and i no prospect of being able to get more ! until next w inter's harvest. They dej clare, however, that the consumption

is bound to fall off from 50 to 07 12 per cent by the middle of September and this will relieve the situation.

President Adolph Hliekwedel, Cash Beall, Matt Von Pien and Anton Stolle representing the South Side Improvement Association were before the County Commissoners yesterday in order to solicit favorable action from them in regard to the new bridge over the Whitewater river. Owing to the fact that the bridge fund of the county Is not very large. President Wiley of the board did not give the committee much encouragement in regard to having the bridge built this year, although he stated that it might be built next year. As the city council expressed itself in favor of the improvement. Cash Peall seemed to think that the bridge should be built before the present city officials go out of office.
