RAILROAD RIGHT-OF-wAY.
Northern Pacific Wins Its Appeal From
King County In the Coleman Case


OLYMPIA. Dec Especial. THE supreme
court today in the case of the Northern Pacific
& Puget Sound Railway Company, appellant,
VS.. Coleman ct al, respondents, Appealed from
King county, construed section 16, article /,
of the state constitution, which provides that
compensation in condemnation cases shall be
ascertained irrespective of any benefit from any
improvement proposed by the corporation con-
demning. The court holds that the basis for
the estimation of damages is the value of the
land as ii would be at the time OF the appropri-
ton If the road were not to be
built. The constitutional clause referred to
only provides, il contends, that the benefits, IL
any, of the proposed improvements, shall not be
allowed to offset or diminish the damages sus-
tanned. The court lays down the rule that the
measure OF damages would be the difference in
amount between the value of tract as a whole
not including the increased value, if any, &C.
casioned by the proposed improvements, and the
value of the land left, and not including therein
such increased value.
In the court below the basis adopted was the
value OF the land st the time of the appropria-
ton The supreme court also decides that it
also an error to admit proof of damage to
tract not referred to in the pleadings, but
which ed Joined the tract described. and was
also owned by the defendants, though they
might have been allowed damages for the ad-
joining land If they had asked in their
answer. The respondents moved to dismiss the
appeal because the judge who tried
the case settled the statement of facts
after he had gone out of Office
The court refused to dismiss, holding that the
proper practice would have been TO have moved
TO strike out the statement of facts.
The Judgment is reversed. Judge Dunbar dis
scnts from the refusal 10 dismiss, holding that
statement of facts may properly be stricken
when motion 20 dismiss is based on an invalid
settlement He concurs in the result on the
merits, because the defendant was allowed TO
prove damages TO a tract not described in the
pleadlngs, hur dissents from the majority inter
probation OF the constitutional provision passed
