MUST MAINTAIN STRAIGHT LINES.
Judge Minor SO Decides with Reference
TO Franklin Streets Extension.


TO Franklin Streets Extension.
Judge Minor, Of the Henrico County
Court, decided yesterday, after hearing
Of several hours. that the lines for the ex-
tension of Franklin street out in the coun-
ty from the Boulevard TO the Roseneath
road must be strai"ht as in the city.
Major Robert Silles and Major A. II.
Venable on behalf Of themselves and
others petitiOned the Court not to allow
the course of the street 10 be DETECTED be-
tween these points as was proposed by
syndicate represented by Messrs. Catlln,
Gates, and others as trustees. Mr.. Catlln
had as counsel for his side Messrs. q. V.
Meredith and II. II. Pollard and their wit
surveyOr), Alonzo Phillips. Mr.. Redd, Jr.,
and DR.. II. A. Patterson. Messrs. Hill
Carter and 10. Lane Stern represented the
opposing side as counsel and their wit
nesses were Colonel W. f. Cutshaw, n. W.
Bowe, ESQ.,, DIR. n. @. Shepherd, Messrs.
James Il. Crenshaw, and John II. Mon
tague.
CLAIMS OF THE SYNDICATE.
The syndicate referred to owns forty-six
acres of land between the Boulevard and
Roseneath road adjoining the Soldiers
Home property on the north and through
which Park avenue. Leonard and kensIng-
ton streets will pass. Franklin street, II
extended by straight lines, would only
cross the corner of their property, on
which they are spending considerable
money grading streets, draining. &c: In
fact, some streets are already open. They
desire to lay off the streets In almost exact
accordance with the old Sidney plan,
which would make Franklin run nearly
parallel with the Grove road instead OF
Broad and Grace streets. They insist tnat
as they are spending money TO place In
habitants on their property the divergence
of Franklin street should be made so as to
give egress both east and west TO thar sec
ton, and that the sharp angles that must
necessarily result in course OF time WITHIN
the territory between Broad and Main
should as well be made anywhere where
the land is unimproyed as on their pro-
perty.
THE OTHER SIDE.
The other side claim that all of the
streets should be laid off in the suburbs
with a view to the extension OF the city
limits and in conformity with the city
plan; that TO do otherwise would retard
Progress and make now desirable property
less valuable They make the fight on the
ground of public expediency and insist
that proper street lines should be estao-
lished now and not wait for future years,
when to do so would involve the tearing
down of improvements and entail great
cost as is now being experienced around
Washington and other cities.
Judge Minor promptly decided that
straight lines must be observed, and VIII
appoint commissioners 20 assess the dam
ages on the syndicate's property, which
will be crossed about the distance OF an
acre on the south side of Franklin. On the
opposite side, next TO the corner OF their
land, the distance will be less. The street
is to be eighty feet wide as in the city. An
appeal will probably be taken.

have devoted our time and best endeayors
by honorable methods 20 the establish
ment OF the business Of the company
upon paying basis We have made
such progress IN this direction that
for many months the company has
been earning and paying monthly
dividends Of one half Of per cent. equal
10 per cent. per annum, on lie stock and
has Ia addition put aside a surplus each
month. Our business is showing con-
tinuously large increase in the output OF
every month over the output OF the cor
responding month in preceding years
Outside competition has never been felt as
little a. during the past six months. In
the midst Of such unexampled prosperity
that one interested in the company should
imperil tho immense interests of It's stock
holders by such a scheme as is charged we
think no sane man will believe. In regard
20 Mr.. Gibson we have TO say that no is
gentleman of character and high standing;
that he has been faithful and an efficient
secretary 70 this company, and that we do
not credit in the least that he is guilty Of
the crime charged against him. The in
