" , ; FIRST MEETING YESTERDAY. Arbiters Selected by Each Party to A p. praise Increased Valuations by Rei son ol Recent Vitrified Brick , Pavlnj Meet Iralffl Today. Arbiters appointed both by the city and by certain of the property owners alone Market street, from Second to Fourth, who refused to pay their pro rata share of the cost of the recent pavlnjr of that thoroughfare with vitrified brick, met yesterday after noon i at 3 o'clock at the office of MlMJLBprlorJ. ayhejKty HaJJ and proceeded at once with evidence as to an appraisement and assessment at preicrloed in the Acts of 1855, the provisions of which are now pretty well known to the' public. After consultation of more than an hour, during which both sides made a very clear presentation of their respective contentions, the Board adjourned to announce Its award at another meet ing to be held to-day at noon at the City Hall. ; The delinquents In the controversy are Mr. W. H. Chadbourn, Pearsall & Co., owners of the Colonial Inn; Mr. Oicar Pearsall, of the DeBosset prop erty at northwest corner of Third and Market streets, and Mr. Cuthbert Mar tin, owner or the Market street resi dence occupied by Mr. 8. J. Davis and an Office adjoining. Each of the de linquents set up the' claim that his property had not been Increased in value by reason I of the paving ' and, therefore, payment of any assessment was declined. j , Mayor Springer sent notices several days ago to the delinquent owners and named as appraisers for the city, Col. Walker lay lor, Messrs. M.V. Divine and D. O. Love. Thf property owners pooled their Issues yesterday and ap pointed to represent them Messrs. M. J. Corbett, W. A. Dick and a a Chadbourn. Thev were &lan rnnrn. I Sented by their counsel, John D. Bel lamy, Jr., Kiq. The city was repre sented by City Attorney William J. Bellamy and ex-Judge E. K. Bryan, special counsel. Berore proceeding with their delib erations, counsel for the city made the point that Mr. O. O. Chadbourn was a relative to one of the parties at inter est.and wai.therofore.ineliglble. Ex Mayor John J. Fowler wasTappointed in his stead. By mutual agreement, the appraisers or commissioners then signed a written agreement drawn up by the city attorney to abide the de cision of the Board selected without carrying the matter Into court. The agreement having.been signed the ex animation was gone into . ' at length. The aggregate amount claimed by the city is less than $900 but an Important principle is Involved, therefore, the Is sues were strongly presented. Mr. W. H. Chadbourn said that his property as a residence, had really been damaged, as the noise along a paved street was very undesirable to a residence section. He wis asked If he had not agreed to pay bis pro rata nare of paving NorthFourth street when that matter was presented sever al months ago. I He said that he had signed but he did not. regard that as a residential section. The Mayor im terrupted to say that by actual count there were eight residences to one bus iness house on that street. All the delinquents took the common ground that macadam would I have sufficed on Market street. , The Mayor and others told of the fact that the street had been ma cadamized with shell at one time, but owing to the grade, macadam would not stand. Besides an expensive sys tem of underground ' drainage had been laid and it was thought best to protect that with the best pavement It was shown' that previous to the' present administration members of the Board of Aldermen were personally' Indicted in the Superior Court because of the ! dangerous condition of that street The present administration had not only been prompted by a spirit of enterprise and progresslvenesr, but the improvement was Imperative to escape actual Indictment In the Superior Court.:!"":.;. Mr. Martlnlcontended that the rent ing value of his property on the afreet wss not more.than.lt was!25 years ago and manifestly hebaa not: been bene fitted. The t close proximity of the livery stable was suggested as a reason for the status of the renting value. Many other points, were brought out and after, argument the. appraisers ad journed until noon to'day. ajor's Mendsy Reception.
