OIL COMPANY
SUES BOROUGH
$4,000 Asked in Action
Started by Mexican Oil Co.
in Supreme Court
Is FILED BY STRICkER
Comes as Result of War
Against Erection Of Oil
Tanks in Borough

NEW BRUNSWICK, May 81
The Mexican Petroleum Corpora
tim, through Joseph h. Stricken,
has brought suit against the Dor
ough of Roosevelt to recover dam
ages fixed at 100000. The case is
believed to be the windup of the
fight between the borough and the
company on the laying of railroad
tracks in Roosevelt. According to
the complaint filed by the plaintiffs
the company suffered damage on
each of three instances when mer
and teams acting under the orders
of the borough went on the company
property to open a street.
In the suit which has been filed
against the borough the corporation
Claims the possession of the streets
and demands $4,000 for damages
sustained when the borough on three
different occasions attempted TO
open up the streets which, 1t Is
claimed, are dedicated streets and
never been released.
The trouble started during the
latter part of February, when a peti-
tion was received by the borough
council from property owners, re-
uuesting the council to take some
0(tlOu " iCotioih th~ <s<S~N~>>~~ l.
troIeum Corporation from erecting
large oil storage tanks. on the prop
erty. An investigation was started
by the council, which resulted IN
finding of a map recorded in the
county clerks Office in New Bruns-
wick, which had been filed in 1897,
at which time the property was laiu
out and borough given three streets,
the rights of which have never been
released, it is alleged. For this rea-
son it was claimed that the oil COM
pany had no right to use the prop
arty dedicated as streets without the
consent of the borough.
The Petroleum corporation iaid
railroad track over the aiiegeu
streets and the borough took excep.
1ion to this move and demanded
. that the tracks be removed. this the
failed to do. SO the bor-
ough tore up a portion of the track
that was alleged to be across the
streets. This action on the part OF
the borough brought forth the fignt
in the court of chancery and inJunc-
tions and counter injunctions were
served. When the case was finally
Heard by Vice-Chancelor Backes, ne
ordered that the suit be started In
the lower court in order to decide
the ownership of the streets.
