MORE TROUBLE FOR THE CITY.
. A. Comstack, a Linden Street
Property Owner Discovers a New
Form of Action for Damages.
S. A. Comstock. who owua three
frame building ou tho southerly Bide
of Linden street, betweeu Peun uud
Prankllu avenues, askud the court yes
terday, through Attorney 1 11, Hums,
to appoint viewers to ascertain what
damages he sustained by reason of
changes of the grade of Linden -ti.-.t
iu froutof his pioparty.
Mr. Comstock erected tho bnildings
about twenty years ag , after obtain
ing the grade of the street iu front I f
them from Olty Engineer Amsden. He
erected the buildings eighteen inch, i
above tho level of the stret, and al
though he has since raised the found. -
lions under each two feet thev are new
oa a level with the street.
He says that nfur his buildinge were
erected tho street commissioners, with
out uny special authority from coun
cils, at different timos raised the grade
of tho street in front of his property.
When Linden street was paved about
five years ago the grade was established
by ordinance. It raised tbo street be
fore Mr. Comstock' house one foot.
For the damage be sustained by re son
of these changes of grade Mr Corn
stock wants tho city to reimburse him.
This is Qnlike the many other claims
that have been brought against the
city for damages caused by grading
It is a question in the first p! qs if the
claim is not birred by the statute of
limitations, and tSOOnty if it is potsible
to recover from tbo city where grading
was doae without being authorized by
ordinance.
In view of theSb (acts Judge Cunster
decided to hear argument iu the oats
before appointing viewers. If Mr
L'ostock ii successful there are many
other property owneis who will bring
similar actions igainst the city
