DISTU BED BY TRAINS.
So Mrs. Turner Claims in Her Suit
Against b. & p. Railroad.

Eva j. Turner today filed a suit for
SO, 700 damages against the Baltimore
and Potomac Railroad Company.
It is charged that the continual running
of trains through the navy yard tunnel has
greatly injured the home of the plaintiff,
which is located on lot 12, square SS1, 4,
adjacent to that portion of the tunnel open
ing on X street, between Sixth and Sew
enth streets southeast.
Mr. Turner says that large quantities OF
SCOT and smoke have been carried from the
mouth of the tunnel into her house through
the doors and windows, and thereby rem
dered the place unhealthy and uncomfort-
able. 1t is also alleged that the constant
vibration caused by moving trains has
cracked the walls of the dwelling, knocked
the plastering down and displaced the wood
work, all of which has been the cause Of
the plaintiffs property deteriorating in
value.
The petitioner is represented by L. Cabell
