COMPROMISE EFFECTED
OF GRADE-DAMAGE SUIT
Harrie F. Wheat Agrees to Accept
$1,000 for Injury to His
Property.

Chief Justice Clabaugh of the District
Supreme Court has. at the instance OF
A. Leftwich Sinclair, special counsel for
the District. signed an order ratifying
compromise of the grade damage suit
of Harrie +. Wheat against the District

LIB Massachusetts avenue northeast,
sued the District to recover damages
which resulted to his property from the
raising Of the grade Of Massa chusetts
avenue, in connection with the Union

case was heard by the Union Station
grade-damage commission, which award
ed Mr.. Wheat damages of $1,000. The
award was held to be excessive by the
District Commissioners, who filed objec-
tons to the grade-damage commissions
appraisement and asked for Jury trial.
BY the terms Of the compromise, the
District is to pay Mr.. Wheat $1,000 in
full settlement of the case, or $500 less
than the amount of damages awarded
him by the grade-damage commission.
The compromise was effected by At
torney Malcolm Hufty, representing Mr..
Wheat. and Special Counsel Sinclair, act
ing for the District Commissioners
The District Commissioners have filed
objections to the appraisement Of the
grade-damage commission In the case OF
Mary A. Thomas. the owners of
lots 1 and 2, in square $50. fronting on
D street between North Capitol street
and New Jersey avenue.
Mrs. Thomas was awarded 5000 by
the commission, as damages due to the
change made In the grade Of D street.
The District Commissioners assert that
this award is contrary to the evidence
submitted to the grade-damage commits
sion. excessive and unreasonable, and
they petition the court to grant the Dis
trict new trial.

SHELL OYSTERS SCARCE.
But Half a Dozen Vessels With SUP.
plies in Port.

oysters in the shell arc becoming scarce
al the oyster wharf due to the non-ar-
rival of ii number OF oyster-running craft
tllat are at river points after the bivalves
for this market This morning there were
but about half dozen boats at the
wharf with shcllfish aboard, and in all
they have less than 1850 bushels under
their matches. This supply will be ex-
hausted by tonight should no other yes
scls come in.
IN consequence OF the shortage in the
supply prices have taken an advance of
from ~ cents to Ii cents per bushel, and
today arc selling at 20 to IJ cents per
ushel for Potomac stock.
The delay in the return of the run boats
10 this market is due to the continuation
81 the northwest winds and also to the
last that the boats running for the Balti-
more packing houses are returning to the
otomac and are buying up the catch at
prices in advance of those offered BY the
, ashington boats
y tug will leave here today for the
lower river and she may return tomorrow
