312 Market St. '
i
the question as to whether the streethad not been opened years ago as tho"Mlllerstown turnpike." Mr. Seltz de-clared the road had never beenopened.
Some of the property owners tookthe stand that they were not fairlydealt with in the method of distribu-tion of benefits and damages. Cityofficials pointed out that the samecondition exists in the Capitol ParkExtension condemnation proceedingswhere the business of a property own-er could not be considered.
The Schedule"Hardscrabble" benefits and dam-
ages and method of distribution as ex-hibited by the viewers'" schedule to-day, are as follows:
Total damages al-lowed $107,105 00
Total benefits assess-ed 42,970 30
Total proportionateshare to be borneby city 64,134 70
Total damages sus-tained 130,830 00
Total cost of boat-houses, landings,wharves ami otherbuildings erectedsince 1871 forwhich no damagescan be allowed .... 23,525 00Damages allowed on thirty-one
properties on west side of Frontstreet from Herr to ('alder ataverage of $77 per foot front.
,
Benefits assessed on twenty-seven properties on east side ofstreet from llerr to Calder ataverage of $14.25 per foot front.
The Big Boat PavilionThe decision of the viewers not to
allow damages for boathouses, etc.,erected since 1871 is of peculiar in-terest to l.undreds of the city's boat-men and canoeists because the rulingaffects the A. P. Dintaman and HarryJ. Berrier boat pavilions. More than500 canoes and other pleasure craft, it
is estimated, are housed there. By thedecision of the viewers these struc-tures will be condemned by the cityand removed without compensationfor the owners.
The viewers support their positionby the opinion of the Dauphin countycourt several years ago in the John C.Denny case. Denny, a South Camer-on street property owner, appealedfrom a viewers' award* when someproperty was affected by the opening
of Cameron street. The court over-ruled him under the provisions of theact of 1871. This act provided forthe appointment of a commission toopen certain streets including Front
and Cameron streeta. On the subject
of compensation for damages the actsays:
The LawThat no compensation shall be
made or allowed to any person orpersons for houses or other build-ings erected or built by any per-son or persons on any of the ave-nues, streets, lanes and alleysof said city from and after saidavenues, streets, lanes and alleysshall have been designated bysaid commissioners or a majorityof them. ?
The exhibition of the "Hardscrab-ble" schedule to-day is another realstep forward in Harrlsburg"s big Im-provement program. For many yearsthe "Hardscrabble" question has beenfought out in councils.
The Gap In the StepsLong before the present commission
Iform of government was inaugurated,,Ross A. Hlckok, member of the oldCommon Council offered an ordinanceto pave tho way for the opening ofFront street and ultimate eliminationof "Hardscrabble."
Harrisburg has Just completed theconstruction of a continuous line of
concrete steps and granolithic walkthroughout the three-mile length ofits water front. The "Hardscrabble"section is the only unsightly Interrup-tion in the magnificent lino of the"front steps of Harrisburg."
The Board of ViewersInitial steps in the proceedings
which led to the presentation of theschedule to-day, were taken by thecity less than a year ago when CitySolicitor D. S. Seitz was authorized toask the court to appoint viewers. Aboard consisting of Attorney Paul G.Smith, Karl Steward and James D.Saltsman were named and directed toreport at September Quarter Sessions.
The board made thorough inspec-tions and investigations of the groundin question, consulted experts, investi-gated sales of property in the neigh-borhood with a view to obtaining afair and equitable Idea of marketvalues and held Innumerable hear-ings when interested property own-ers and disinterested real estate ex-perts were examined under oath as totheir opinions of values. In order togive everybody who might be inter-ested ample opportunity to be heard,the board asked for an extension oftime in making its report to court andwas granted until January quarter ses-sions for the purpose.
The Home of Canoeists
The principal properties, of course,which are affected by the 1871 rulingare the Dlntaman and Berrier pavil-ions. Dintaman's boathouse at 1108North Front for which he will re-ceive no compensation is valued at$300; at No. 1112, a boathouse, valuedat $300; at Nos. 1120 to adwelling valued at $3,800 and a boat-house at $1,500; No. 1128, two framedwellings,at S3OO and a boathouse atSIOO.

"Major" Be trier's Award
"Mayor" Berrier's improvements forwhich he is allowed no compensationinclude the boathouse ut Nos. 1204-06valued at $2,000, and the ice cream pa-vilion at S3OO. Joseph Berrier's dwell-ing, No. 1210, is included in the ruling,too; it is valued at $4,000. "Mayor"Berrier is allowed $6,432 for his prop-erties, Nos. 1204-06, while Joseph Ber-rier is allowed $4,000 for the groundvalue of No. 1210.
