HYATTSVILLE, Md., July 27—Ver-| dicts favorable to the owners of prop- erty condemned for the rights of way for the extension of Rhode Island ave- nue were given in two cases heard by a sheriff’s jury yesterday. The jury awarded damages of $11,500 to Mr. and Mrs, Morris L. Weinstein and Mr. and Mrs. Max Leibold in one case, and $250 to the owners of property listed to Mrs. Annle H. Himmelfarb in the other. Both of these amounts were considerable in excess of the sums of- fered by the State Roads Commission, and the question of appealing them will be discussed with the attorney general | of Maryland. I Verdict at Midnight. The verdict in the Weinstein-Leibold | case was not returned until after mid- | night, the jury having deliberated near- ly an hour and a half before agreeing. It recommended that $9,000 of the 11,500 be paid the Weinsteins, tenants by the entirety,” and that the other $2,500 be paid the Leibolds, who operate a store In the building. The State had offered $5,000 for the entire property, and expert appraisers valued it at $6,000. County Assessor James Rogers sald it was assessed for tax purposes, which is supposed to be 100 per cent value, at $5,250. Another witness called by the State told of buy- ing the premises in 1917 for $2,000 and selling in two years later for $4,500 cash. Defense Attorney C. L. Aiello, who represefited the Weinsteins and Lei- bolds, and J. F. Lillard, who represented W. P. Magruder, mortgagee, called Mrs. Leibold to show that her business on the premises cleared yearly profit of | about $5,000. | Magruder was also called and told of | selling the property to Weinstein sub- | ject to a $9,000 mortgage. Weinstein declared he bought it for business pur- poses. The store stands on lot 1 of Melrose Park, In the triangle formed by the in- tersection of Melrose avenue and the W. R. & E. tracks. The entire plot of land is needed for the extension of the avenue, and the house and store will | have to be demolished. Former Owner Called. An unusual situation developed dur- ing the hearing of the Himmelfarb case when Hyman Terrish, described as a “former record ewner” and called by Defense Attorney J. F. Lillard, declared he would be damaged by the extension of Rhode Island avenue, but was not permitted to tell what his interest in the property involved was. Assistant State Attorney General Robert H. Archer, who with William Stanley conducted the prosecution, claimed it would be impossible to fairly weigh Terrish's testimony if the jury did not know what his interest in the property was, but Lillard insisted that the jury was merely considering the damages to a piece of property and the courts would decide to whom the dam- ages should be paid and all other ques- tions of ownership. Sheriff Charles . Early, who presided, ruled in favor of Lillard. The suit named Mrs. Annfe H. Him- | melfarb, the ‘“record owner,” and Paul| Himmelfarb. Marcus Himmelfarb, Min- | nie Himmelfarb, Hyman Terrish and Bessle Terrish, “former record owners,” as defendants. Court Held on Lawn. After being sworn in the jury was i conducted over the property by Leroy Kern, right of way inspector of the State Roads Commission. They were then taken to the residence of County Sur- veyor Latimer nearby, where the case was presented in an outdoor setting, the jurors occupying the front porch | and the lawyers addressing them from | the lawn. ‘The State called T. H. Welsh and | rge H. Lanhardt, officlals of the | Hyattsville Building Association, and valuation experts, both of whom ap- | praised the land at about 15 cents a | square foot. On this basis the property condemned would have been worth | $486.50. They estimated, however, that the extended roadway would increase the value of the land $2,000. For this reason Attorney Stanley told the jury the State believed the owner should | donate the right of way, but had offer- | ed the nominal sum of $25. Lillard’s chief argument was that the owners were not financially able to take | advantage of the improvement afforded by the extension of the avenue. He asked that the jury value the land at 20 cents a square foot. ‘There are no traffic rules in the Sultante of Oman, in Southeast Arabia.
