OWNER ExCEPTS TO AWARD
WANTS MORE MONEY FOR
AVENUE PROPERTY.
Decision of Commission in Apprais
ing Lands for Government Cues
toned by S. g. Cornwel.

Samuel 6. Cornwell, owner of 1412 to
141S Pennsylvania avenue, has filed ex-
ception to the award of the commission
which valued the land sought to be con-
demned on the five squares south of Penn
sylvania avenue between 14th and 18th
streets. The commission allowed Mr..
Bornwell about s24S,OOO for his holdings.
Through Attorneys r. Ross Perry & Son.
, Mr.. Cornwell complains to the court that
the award is contrary TO the evidence:
that the court erred in granting certain
instructions to the commission and in de-
chE-ng to grant others; that the commits
sion accepted improper evidence and
cec!ined TO admit evidence offered by him
II IS also claimed that the award is in
adequate.
Similar grounds of exception are made
by the same attorneys in behalf of the
parcels owned by Andrew B. Graham,
Christian Heurich, Central Dispensary
and Emergency Hospital and the Wash
ington Nailor estate.
The court has set October for the con-
sideration of the exceptions filed and to
be tiled by the property owners who are
dissatisfied with the awards OF the COM
m!ssloners.
