HIGHWAY -- THE ACT Written for The E In ing Star. e plan of the city of ion 1 the streets were run two tracts of land which had pre- i »divided into lots and nfiar to the sub- suburbs of the city. ms were known streets, in @ivisions now Those manner the subdivi twe as Carrolisburg and Hamburgh. Carrollsburg was located at and near the present site of the Washington Barracks, and Hamburgh was near Georgetown, in the vicinity of the old observatory site. Their streets did not conform to the plan of streets of the proposed federal city, and the surveyor in charge of the street plan was directed by the Commissioners to run through these subdivisions. In doing so many of the lots were absorb- ed by the new streets. ef the lots so the streets Some of the owners bsorbed by the new streets lot only, while other lot ufficient holdings to warrant making an agreement to donate 2 for stree and to divide the remainder nment, similar to the agree- th the proprietors of the un- i lands. Agreement With Lot Owners. It m be remembered that the agree- with the unsubdividea original proprietors of the lands expre provided that the above two sub- Carrollsbu¥; and Hamburgh ffected thereby, and it was enly by a separate and subsequent agre ment that some of the owners in these two ns subjected their holdings to the agreed upon by the proprietors ands; that is to say, substan- nd necessary for streets was and needed for government . Was to be paid for by the vernment, and of the remainder, alter- nate lots, or one-half, was to be reconveyed the iginal proprictors—the United States to have the other half or the avails divisions of were not to be The government acquired lot No. § and other lots of even number in square 5U8 of th> city of Washington from one Young. It fs thus demonstrated that the United States, in the original laying out of the city of Washington, distinguished be- tween the single lots in the subdivisions. the owners of which could not be expect>d to donate them, and the holdings of the larger proprietors and the owners of farm lands, an for the lots so absorbed by the streets. e United States did not then @sk that the District pay the cost nor even one-half the cost of those lots, but the United States paid the whole by giving one of its lots nearest to th lot taken. The Carrolisburg Sybdivision. The land which was subdivided Into Car- rolisburg was in 1770 the property of Charles Carroll. the father of Daniel Car- roll of Duddington. In that year the sub- division was made, and a record of the plot will be found in the land records of Marl- boro’, Md., the county seat at that time. A plat of the subdivision is now in the Li- brary of Congress, in the Peter Force col- lection, and the history of the acquisition of the above lot No. 102 and other lots in Carrolisburg and Hamburg, with maps of the extersion of the stre:ts of Washington through them, will be found in the office of the superintendent of public buildings and grounds, in the War Department. In connection with the subject of >xpense for improving the streets which it 1s pro- posed to extend under the highway act, it may be worthy of mention that some of the Streets through Carrollsburg, the land for which was acquired in 1791-2, hav> not yet been paved. The cost of acquiring land for streets for future use does not necessarily irvolve expense for improvements of such streats. An Erroneous Impression. The history of the early days of the city is referred to for the purpose of correcting the erroneous impression that many have that none of the land acquired for the streets of Washington was paid for by the government. erroneously now made That position has often been taken in opposing the claim 'y the District that the govern- ment should pay half the cost of lots taken for streets in the subdivisions in line of the present street extension plan. A recent development tn the highway sit- uation is the filing of a motion to dismiss one of the condemnation cases for want of Prosecuticn. The case was called up for argument last Monday, and the court was informed by the special attorney for the District that the Commissioners had given instructions to go no further with the pros- ecutlon of the cases until an effort is made to obtain an amendment of the highway act. One of the grounds of the motion to dismiss is that the Commissioners have loned the prosecution under the law in suen cases made and provided, and that the pendency of the proceedings on the records of the court is a damage to the property in question and a cloud upon the title. Unless Congress Acts. The fact that the prosecution under ex- isting law has been abandoned seems to be beyond dispute, and to keep the cases in court awaiting the uncertainty of Con- gressiona! legislation cannot be reasonably expected. Judge Cox intimated during the argument of the motion that unless Con- gress: makes some provision before the coming summer for carrying on these cases they ought to be disposed of. Such action by the court would have the effect of final- ly ending the proceedings, as the District could not begin a new proceeding to con- demn under the present law. If, therefore, Congress does not act during this session, the property owners will seek relief from the court by insisting upon the dismissal of the proceedings. C. H.
