BIG FIGHT AT CAPE CHARLES.
The Town Votes to Extend Its Limits Against
Strong Opposition.
Especial Dispatch to The Times.
~ nnENIr Y A L 4

ONANCOCK, VA, Feb 2i-Cape
Charles city was the scene Saturday OF
an interesting hot fight between 4 ,corpo-
ration and the citizens Of the town. Cape
Charles is now completely shut in on all
sides by the Scott estate, which IS con-
trolled by the railroad, and the company's
station and pier where their line termi-
mates are situated on that estate. When
the railroad was built down the Peninsu-
Ia, Mr.. VIM. t. Scott president of the
New York, Philadelphia and Norfolk
Railroad Company, bought what is now
said to be the largest trucking farm in
the world, Hollywood The estate coll
tains a large number of acres and is
very valuable property. The inhabitants
Of Cape Charles, who now number 1900,
have always desired a public wharf, and
It has been advocated for some time to
extend the town limits SO as to incorpo-
rate part of the Scott estate and he rail-
load property. The railroad company has
always successfully fought the PROPOSE
ton until recently when some prominent
citizens went before the Town Council
and pleaded that the Virginia Legislature
might be asked to allow the town to ex-
tend its limits. The Council decided to
take UP the matter, but when the time
for voting came there was a tie, three
for and three against, and the Mayor was
called upon to decide the matter. That
worthy gentleman became alarmed and
finally decided to put it to q vote Of the
people. The election came off Saturday
and went by ten majority against the
railroad. The Scott estate and the rail-
road company are both fighting it on ac-
count Of the increase of taxes, and the
citizens wish to stop the railroad hand
ling through freight on Sunday. This
would be very Objectionable to the rail-
SC ole nf mo-
who live in novels near the freight depot
These often become unmanageable and
brutalities and vicious deeds Of all kinds
have been practiced until they have be,
come a public menace.
Cape Charles is a promising town and
no progress can be made, it being now
shut in as if by a stone wall. With any
favors from the Scott estate the popula-
sion would be trebled in a short time.
The next fight will be in the Legisla-
ture when the, town applies for permits
sion to extend it's limits. The railroad
nut up good fight, and we spare neither
money or anything else to win the fight.
