Receivers. ALLEGED ILLEGAL OCCUPANCY Space on Delaware Avenue in Northeast Washington PAPERS IN THE CASE District Attorney Davis late this after- noon instituted proceedings against the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad Company for alleged illegal occupancy of land on Dela- ware avenue northeast. The district attor- ney is acting under instructions from the Attorney General in taking the matter into court. The preparation of the case required several weeks of his time, a vast amount of searching among records, and a great deal of other character of detail work. The proceedings relate to the alleged un- lawful occupation by the railroad company of a triangular plat of ground, bounded by the south line of H street, the east line of Delaware avenue, the north line of G street northeast and the west line of Ist street northeast. The Attorney General was re- quested to act by the Secretary of the In- terior. The Northeast Washington Citizens’ Association was active in urging the last named official to take steps looking toward the ejectment of the railroad company from the plat described. ‘The suit just instituted is in the form of a bill in equity. The bill is of unusual inter- est, for the reason that it includes a sort of history of the legisiation covering the grants to railroads in the District So- dumbia. Sewers The district attorney fited the bill in the Dame of the United States of America and names as defendants the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad Company, John R. Cowen and Oscar G. Murray, receivers, and John G. Thomas. It is asked that the unlawful encroachments and obstructions upon, and occupations of the space in question, be declared by the court to be a nuisance: that the defendants be restrained from further maintaining and continuing the same, and that they be ordered and re- quired to remove the unlawful obstructions from the space. After explaining that tha Baltimoi Ohio Railroad Company ts a body cores rate under the laws of the state of Mary- land. having certain rights, privileges and Powers in thé District of Columbia, and that the United States of America are the owners in foe simple of the streets in the city of Washington; that among the strects in the space between the strects desig. nated on the plan of the city as H street north and G strest north, and between the Eee line oe Square 719 and the east © of square 677, the district Y; s a part of the bill, says: Sttormey, as Authority for Lateral Branch. “By the terms and provisions of an of the Congress of the said United Siates, entitled ‘An act to authorize the extension, cerstruction and use of a lateral branch of the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad Com- pany into and within the Dist t ict of Co- lumbia,” approved March 2, 1831, and a further act of Congress, supplementary thereto, zpproved March 3, 1835, the said ly corporate was authorized to continue the construction of a lateral branch road from its said main st2m or road in the te of Maryland into the said District nd into the said city of Washington, and to a point in said city at the intersection of said H street north and said Delaware avenue, and in pursuance of such author- ity did construct and extend such lateral brarch, which consisted of a single track, that is to say, of one roadbod only with Mas lines cf rails, into and within the gaid rict and to a point in the said city of ashingten, at the intersection of the street and avenue last aforesaid; and that by the terms of said supplementary act of said Congress, approved March 3, 1835, tha further extension and construction by the said body corporate of the said lateral branch road within the said city of Wash- ington was dependent upon the approval of the mayor, board cf aldermen and board of common council of the said city of Washington, of the rout> to be followed in such further extension and construction. “That the said body corporate proposed and submitted to t id mayor and boards of aldermen and common council, for approval, a plan for the location of such route of further extension and con- struction of said lateral branch in said city, which plan provided for a single track, that is to say, for on> roadbed only, with two lines of rails; and that the plan so proposed and submitted was approved by the said maycr, board of aldermen and Ecard of common council, and an ordinance was by them passed on’ April 9, 1835, ap- proving the same, entitled ‘An act declar- ing the assent of the corporation of th3 city of Washington to the route adopted by the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad Com- pany for the I:teral branch of said road within the lim'ts of said city.” “And that the said body corporate, pursuance of und according to such last mentioned plan, did further extend and censtruct in said city and in a southerly direction, the said lateral branch, with a single track of one road bed only and two lines of rails, from the said point at the intersection of said H street north and Delaware avenue, through the space afore- said, between said H and G streets and the said westerly line or boundary of satd square numbered seven hundred and nine- teen (719) and the said east line or boun- dary of said square numbered six hundred and seventy-seven (677), and upon a line distant eighty (80) feet from the said west- erly line or boundary of said square num- red seven hundred and nineteen (719), and that said lateral branch was called and hecame and is now known as the Washington branc’ of the Baltimore and Ohio railroad. Further Legislation. “That by a further act of said Congress, approved July 25, 1866, and entitled ‘An act to authoriz> the extension, construction and us? by the Baltimore and Ohio Rail- road Campany of a rairoad from between Knoxville and Monocacy Junction into and within the District of Columbia,” the said company was cuthorized to extend into and to construct within said District such rail- read, and dil so extend and construct the same to s0int at the intersection of the boundary of said city with New York ave- nue of said city, and that, by virtue of said last mentioned act of said Congress and of an agreement between the said company and the corperation of the city of Wash- in ington nt to the provisions thereof, the said company was authorized to extend into and to corstruct within, and did extend into and construct within the said city of Washingon, such last men- tioned reilroad with two tracks, that is to say, with two road beds and two lines of tracks on each, along and by a route which crossed said New York avenue, and passed through square seven hundred and ten (710) of said city to said Ist street east, and then passed along the center of sald Ist street to said H street, and thence upon an ex- tension of sald center line through said space betweer the said lines or boundaries of said squares numbered seven hundred and nineteen (719 and six hundred and seventy-seven (677) and said-H and G streets; that the said last mentioned agree- ment is evidenced by an ordinance of the said corporation of the city of Washington, passed Janvary 17, 1867, entitled ‘An act to encourage the extension of direct rail- road communication with the city of Wash- ington,’ and that safd last mentioned rail- road was called anf became and is now known as the Mairopolitan branch of the Baltimcre and Ohio railroad.

Cowen and Oscar G. Murray were also appointed recetvers of said supreme ccvrt, of all the properties, estates and franchises of the said company within the jurisdiction of said supreme court, and with the same powers and duties in respect of the same, set forth and prescribed in said first mentioned decree, and the offi- cers, agents and employes of said com- pany, and all persons whosoever were en- joined by said last mentioned decree from interfering in any way whatever with the pessession or management of the same and frem interfering in any way with the dis- ‘ge of the duties of said receivers.

PEREZ.” The Proposition Repelied. The answer to: such miserable proposi- tions was not as I desired, through wishing to see if he would have the boldness to Say it to m2 in person. I sent word to him that I was not thinking of such a thing, and regarding the appoiatment that Senor Ruiz asked me I answered that if of pri- vate character, there was no inconvenience in holding it. After a few days, or about the 3d of December, I received a letter from Senor Ruiz in the form which fol- lows: = “Otfice of the Canal of Albear. “HAVANA, December “Sonor Nestor de Aranguren: ‘Dear Friend: In this paper, the heading of which is w2ll krown to you, and with my name and signature, Which so many times you have seen, I address you for- mally, in accordance with my character, indulgent, but firm and frank.

Persistency of Ruiz. I answered this gentleman, showing him it was I who received and replied to his let- ter, and that under no conception could I admit an official interview; because such was prohibited by our laws. I went to the appointment on the day and hour fixed and at the place assigned, and with surpris? I saw that those who came were military persons, on which account I decided to withdraw. I ought to add here that I granted the interview asked by Rviz, depending ‘on the friendship which bevnd us in times of<peac>, since I knew .him as director ‘of the Canal of Albear, named by the city council while I was em- ployed in the company which was charged with verifying the works of the canal. The 11th of Degember I received a card m Ruiz in these terms: my waited for you Friday without result two hours. If you really wish the inter- view, cite me punctually the day you desig- nate, and for my part I will go without hat; you may say. care to the point thatiy ae Bic uspecting that: there was not good faith in tits interview threugh what happened previously, my answer to his card was similar to that of: thevletter, insisting that in no way should the-interview be admit- ted with official character, fixing again int and hour. tne. 18th of December Ruiz presented himself, after having been announced by a pair of my trusted men. Fs Aranguren then giveg the particulars o' the meeting as recounted in his letter al- ready published. He reiterates especially Ruiz’s offer to himself and his friends of money and employment if they would lay down their arms and accept autonomy. He also tells of the court-martialing of Ruiz and the two guides and their execu- tion in compliance with the laws of the Cu- ban republic, as previously described by him. To this statement Aranguren adds the following, which will be read with greater interest since his own death: Justification of Killing of Ruiz. I should have liked to save him, but the solemn obligation of my military position forbade it. Tne blow was-inevitable. His rashness has lost him and my conscience is not gnawed with remorse. I have felt sorry for {t in my private capacity as much or more than those persons who may criti- cise me. Ruiz was a gentleman and a good man, and these qualities always made him winning in my sight, but to have passed over without penalty his zeal would have been to make me his accomplice, and there- fore guilty of the crime of high treason. ‘The insensate world censures me unjust It matters not. I am conscious of not hav. ing committed assassination. Ruiz had be- fore himself the precipice of which I warned him. He chose to run the risk and he ran it. I admire his valor and commis- serate him. He is one victim more of Spanish Quixotism and of the little which Spain places on the lives of her sons. Now, can the conduct be censured which I observed toward the commissioned? Is perchance criminal the carrying out of an act brought to a head after the warnings of danger? Would the Spanish government have hesitated, or, better to say, has it ever hesitated, before the most shameful and criminal undertaking? For the slan- derers of my person I have only contempt, and for those ae saunas tian pity. he conséquence of pains. Le norociginals of' the letters directed to me by Perez and Ruiz remain in our pos- session, as also a note of this latter (Ruiz), in which he manifests to me his purpose of visiting several chiefs of the revolution with the same end in view.

Perhaps some of them had taken secret pride in the daring exploits which had brovght him the stars of a colonel im the insurgent army- After two or three hours’ public exnibitton, the doors of the morgue were closed.
