Charged With Selling Real Estate
Without q License.

A. A. Satterwhite, the colored real estate
dealer who has been handling Belmont sub
division, on the Rockville Road, IN Mont
gomery county, adjoining the District line,
with the purpose OF establishing there resi-
dence suburb for colored people, was arrest
ed yesterday, charged with engaging in the
real estate business without license.
The arrest is interesting, especially be.
cause 1t follows close upon the determined
movement Of the white residents and prop.
erty owners in that section to prevent the
introduction of colored colony. II Is de-
MED by several of those interested that the
proceedings against Satterwhite grew out of
tn Q movement against his enterprise.
The arrest was made by Town Marshal
Richmond on O warrant sworn out before
Justice of the Peace Loughborough at SOM
erset, by Richmond.
When he was arrested Satterwhite was
taken before Justice Loughborough and
gave 5000 for appearance on Saturday,
when, 1t is stated, his case will be sent to
the Circuit Court at Rockville. The exam
ination before the justice will be held about
3 O'Clock at the home OF Justice Lough-
The justice this afternoon went out to Rock
vile and held conference with r. B. Peter,
States Attorney for Montgomery county,
concerning the management of the case,
which already gives promise of becoming
case celebre. James l., Neill Is named as
surety on Satterwhite's bond.
The penalty for acting as q real estate
broker without license in Maryland is
fine oil $500 for each offense. Satterwhite
said to day that he expected by the end Of
to-day's roundup of his agents he would
have sold sixty.fve lots. A simple mathe-
NAUTICAL calculation indicates that II the
Maryland Court sees At to impose the maxi
mum penalty for each offense, Satterwhste
will .stand liable for something over $50 600
In fines.
II don't think have anything to say al
al, said Satterwhite, at his office on G street
this morning. II haven't any feelings to.
ward anybody, II any body has any against
me. OF course, I'm sorry. But don't see
how they're going to prevent my doing
business"
"How many lots do you figure you have
sold In the subdivision"
"About thirty OF them, so far. When the
agents report on the work to-day, expect
1t will be about sixty-five. No, the opposl.
ton hasn't seemed TO hurt the business"
"Are you selling TO colored people alone ~
"Oh, no, selling to anybody that wants to
buy.
your buyers
"Well, now," replied Satterwhite, "You
know, donrt ask folks whether they're
white or colored, and don't notice much
If they have the money. Some of them
that have bought seemed to be just as white
as you; you know how many shades Of
color there are among people,"
"Do you assume that your arrest has
something to do with the opposition to your
opening colored colony out there ?"
Satterwhlte looked out the window for
some time and then said he didn't know.
The real estate man positively would NOT
say anything about the proceedings against
himself; he wouldn't tell whether he had
license, or even admit that he had been
arrested = Washington Times of Monday.
