Julian Hoskins Compromises His
Suit for $4,000 and a
Position.

Four thousand and five hundred dollars
and a lifetime job is what Julian Hos
KIns, OF Boswell, this State has received
from the hands of the Richmond Fred
ericksburg and Potomac Railroad for the
loss of a leg. This settlement was reach
ed without the case ever having gone
into court. and is regarded as one Of the
largest recompenses ever given in Vir-
Sinia for a similar accident.
A short time ago Hoskins, who was a
brakeman in the service of the company
received injuries which necessitated the
amputation of one of his legs. AT the
time he was in the northern part Of the
State and the railroad people had him
removed TO his home in boswell, where
he was given the very best Of medical at
tention.
Itoskins is now able to be out, and it
is said he intended filing suit against
the Richmond Fredericksburg and Poto-
mas when he received from them a re-
guest 10 hold the suit, pending COM
promise. He did so.
Aad last Friday afternoon attorneys
Tor the company made the proposition
above recorded. 1t was accepted at once
by hoskins. and as soon as he is able
he will assume the duties of the life
time position. II is stated that the duties
which Hoskins will be asked to perform
Will consist of acting as fagman at a
remote crossing near his home.

TELEPHONE AFTER
WAS NOT DECIDED
Street Committee Heard Opinion
Of City Attorney Read and
Postponed Action.

At a called meeting of the Street Com
mittee, held last night in the City Hall
for the purpose Of considering the amend
ments to the franchise of the Richmond
Telephone Company, granting them five
years from date in which to place their
wires under ground, and the privilege
OF increasing their present rates for
phone service in the city, it was decided
to postpone action until the next regu-
lar meeting OF the committee, at which
time definite date will be set for TAX
ing the matter up for final disposal
Immediately after the reading OF the
minutes Of the previous meeting, the
telephone matter was taken up, the
clerk reading the opinion of City Attor-
ney Pollard regarding the functions of
the Council under the new Constitution
in relation to franchises. The opinion
was printed in The Times yesterday
morning.
According to Mr.. Pollard the City Coun-
Gil has a right to grant the amendments
asked by the Richmond Telephone Com
pany without violating the provisions of
the new Constitution relating to fran
chises he taking the stand that in grant
ing the amendments the city would be
giving away nothing additional. the
company already having d franchise for
the use of certain streets.
Mr.. Minor was the only member OF
the committee to commit himself en- the
matter. He differed with the opinion of
the City Attorney.
On motion of Mr.. Peters the entire
matter took the above course. and as a
result the meeting was devoid of interest
After the disposition of the telephone
matter Mr.. Adams moved for a suspen-
sion of the rules Sc as to permit of the
consideration of a number of slight i'm
provements of sidewalks and streets in
different parts of the city. The motion
was carried.
The committee then passed favorably
upon the following matters: New curo-
ing around First Market, so as to allow
the pavement of the place with grano-
lithic.
Mr.. r. f. Rupert was given Permission
to connect with the sewer ON Main
Street, between Twenty-sevcnth and
Twenty-eighth Streets, and TO pay for
same himself. taking chances of having
the money refunded to him by the city.
That Reservoir Street, between Ran
dolph and Wallace. be graded and side
walks paved.
That walk on Meadow. between ivy
and Grove Streets. be laid.
That walk en- Hanover between LON
hardy and Vine. be paved.
That Passenger and Power Street
Railway Company be requested to main
tain the agreed schedule on all Of their
lines.
That walk on right side of Grove Ave
nue.. between Robinson and Mulberry. be
paved with gravel.
On molten Of Mr.. Peters the committee
adjourned. having been in session not
over an hour.
