The Mag on the establishment of a.
building line on Monroe street, held be-
fore the Board of Councilmendnet night,

Adam: and various members 11! the

‘ map was shown, to which Engi-
new Briggs replied that it was the some
one exhibited when the street was in (1
out.
Mr. Adams~".ls Lander-stand it the
blilldhtlt line in not to be straight."
Mr. Briggs—“Perfectly straight."
Mr. Adams—"Tho pmpoeition was to
make the street titty-live 1.1.11 wide. Per»
hope as a moody-owner I have no
business, at least the city attorney says
notto makeany objection on this mat—
ter. I never saw the map until after
the layout was adopted, and when lash-
edwhy theltx'eet was laid out so, the
engineer said I had no business to talk
tohim maturity, and Councilman Hal-
lock callodmedown at. the city meet-
ing." Mr. Adams then recited the fa-
miliar history of the layout; of Monroe
street, and wanted to know how it could
be aatraigbt line. A notice had been
given to make Monroe street sixty {in
wide. “And now," said Mr. Addhs,
"I would like to have that notice feud,
if it is my privilege.”
Clerk Taylor read the notice, and Mr.
Adams contined: ,
“We had a hearing on that notice, and
later on there was a resolution making
the street fifty feet 'widc, and tinni-
ly it. was made fifty-five feet. and I
would like that read."
Mr. Taylor read the resolution referred
to and also the report of the committee
of freeholders, and Mr. Adams said:
“Gentlemen, you see by the records
that the ptreet was laid out fiftyfive feet
wide, and the cmmnitsm appointed to
work on that layout." Mr. Adams re-
quested Mr. Golden to read page 111 of
the city charter. .
-At this point Councilman Golden i11-
termpted Mr. Adams and addressingthc
mayor, said he rose to a point of privi—
lege. He wanted to know what was
The layout was set-
tled some time ago, he said, and the
question now under discussion was the
building line on Monroe street. M 1'.
Golden read the sections Mr. Adams rc—
ferred to, and Mr. Adams continued:
"The point that I was making is that
the street is illegally 111111 out, and when
I attempted to learn its width from the
engineer and attorney I could gr 1 no
11 itisfaction Can the city come forward
and steal a man' s property from him:
The report of the committee was; thrust
.upon us; the committcc was appointed
in five minutes and they reported in 1111
minutes more. Is a man's property to ix
taken and he compelled to go to law t1
get it back? When I swim to the engi-
neer he said I had no right to talk to
him "
Engineer Briggs (interruptmg )—
did not. I would like to state one thing};
Mr. Adams—“And . when I go!
through you can state two. Council-1
man Bullock said the ()mncilhud set-
tled the matter I want pay for that
five foot Of property gougcd out trom
myfront. Ievpect 1t and shall receivv
it M
Attorney Light—‘ Anything else you
want?’ .
Mr. Adams—"Yes, I want a uniform
width of the street. I shall expect more
damages than the city can pay."
Mr. Light—“But when Railroad place"
is extended, which will bein» a very few
minutes, your front will be made all
right, and that gouge taken out"
Mr. Adams—"How do you, or how do
I know Railroad place‘ is to be extended.
That has nothing whatever to do with
Monroe street. ”
Mr. Light—"You’d be the most disap»
pointed man in the city if a street we»
not opened there. Isn' t it true there is
a thoroughfare there at present 1”
Mr. Adams-"No, sir; every person
Who goes through that property does so
at his own risk. I have a contract with
the Street Railway company, allowing
its care to go throng ."
‘Mr Light—“You object, then, toRail»
road place being open .
Mr. Adams——"You have no right to
ask that question. I want that street
made right. It has got m be made right,
and it will be made right.‘
Mp1. Light-"Undonbttdly it 1,11'1'11 be
when Railimrl place is cut through."
n.
Mr. Adams-"Yon can‘t beat me
domithat way. " '
Mr. pight—-“You arc the “one trying
to do the browbeating. Did you present
this matter to the freeholders?"
Mr. Adams—"311m. certainly I did.
and city officials. A map was]

Mr. Li_ght~—"V1’ouldv1m have punches»

city would not have wanted it?"
l Mr. altitude-«"Whv, my dear air that
property would have been 11'1n'tl1th11u~

Mr. Adams then sulpldrd 11nd Mr.
11am took his turn at talking. Tie
said that when the first meeting W118
;l1cld two 111111111 wewehowu. one of fifty
feet and one of lifty'dlvo. They were
111111111 to Mr. Adams, and tho 111.111.11.111:
cussed with him. He adored no serious
objections. Another thing the commit»
11.11 lillkt'il forward to was the opening
of Railroad p'ace. which wuuld take out
the objectionul gore. The width of
Monroe street wan fifty five feet.
Mr.l..11l1t-—"And Mr. 1.1111111111111111

Mr. Adnmaw'd don' t know why the!
responsibility is thrown on me. If tlu1
north line of Monroe street is
«weight, m11c111111rc1-t 11 block there, i
have no objecnon."
Mr. Light-“W‘onld you care if the
matter was referred back to the connnit-
11111111111 the line straightened?"
Mr.'A1l111n1’1-";\’hcm; l thought the
louncil had 111-tiled that. at 112.15: one of
the lllcnlle'l‘S told me so.“
Mr. Light—"Mr. Buggs will explain
how the stm-t will look that way."
Mr. 1\1l11n111——" 31111‘: My very well on
Briggs. I can't understand his explana»
tious." I must be too thick. Will the
clerk please read my testimony at the
heari11g.?"
Mr. Taylor did as requested, the prin-
cipal point being that Mr. Adams did
not object to a sixty foot layout. Mr.
Adams went on :
"Those are my sentiments exactly
it is the manner in which the street wm
left. that I object to. Tho engineer and
myself prcttyncnr wore Monroe 11111111:
out in gettinga survey. Why, the Rail-
road company had to put :1 new dressing
there after we got through.”
Mr. Light—"I understand Mr. Briggs
thinks you pretty ncur wore him out.‘
Councilman Golden said the Damn
the layout was reduced was because of
injury to property on the south side. ‘
As no one clscprcsent had anything
to say, the hearing was 111115911.

The 111.111.11.11 extending and widen—
ing Railroad place was then taken up.
Engineer Briggs exhibited two maps.
111111 of them making 1h.- strcct straight
from Washington street, and the other
showing an angle at (flay 111111111. The
1'1'1nncr took nearly all the from of Mr
Adams' property on Monroe street, Trav-
>ng only about 1'1 1113311111 foot.
Mr. Adams requested the privlh'ge of

thoycould carefully 1011110111111 over, and

William Warren thought the 132 0 he
was awarded by 11111 freeholdcrs on the

nearly cover rlns manages, and requested
an additional sum. The matter was re-
