    Mayor and City Council of Baltimore v. Baltimore and Philadelphia Steamboat Company, 65 A. 353, 104 Md. 485 (Dec. 19, 1906) Russell K. George I. INTRODUCTION Mayor and City Council of Baltimore v. Baltimore and Philadelphia Steamboat Company1 concerns the condemnation by the City of Baltimore of properties owned by the Baltimore and Philadelphia Steamboat Company ("BPSC"). After the Great Fire of 1904, which destroyed most of the Baltimore business district, the City embarked on an effort to make various urban improvements. Among other things, the City endeavored to widen Pratt Street fifty feet to the south by condemning wharves at the corner of Light and Pratt Streets that were owned and leased by the Steamboat Company.2 The Burnt District Commission awarded the Company minimal damages for the property that was condemned, and instead assessed benefits against the Company for the widening of Pratt Street.3 The Company appealed to the Baltimore City Circuit Court, where Judge Henry Stockbridge essentially reversed the Commission awards, giving the Company much more compensation than it initially received. Both the City and the Company cross- appealed. The Maryland Court of Appeals rendered its decision on December 19, 1906, affirming Stockbridge's awards. The case represents a microcosm of the improvement efforts in Baltimore following the fire. The litigation pursued by the Steamboat Company shows how property owners posed an obstacle to urban improvements. Christine Rosen discusses this in The Limits of Power: Great Fires and the Process of City Growth in America, 1 65 A. 353 (1906). 2 See Diagram, attached. 1 concluding that the progressive nature of Baltimore, which had developed prior to the fire,4 helped the City to overcome various obstacles to change, including private property ownership and political deadlock.5 In addition, the case presents issues concerning the condemnation value of waterfront property, particularly the value of certain riparian rights and the question of whether they are to be included in the fair market value of the property.

    The Transnational Contexts of Early Twentieth-Century American Urban Segregation Carl Husemoller Nightingale Journal of Social History, Volume 39, Number 3, Spring 2006, pp. 667-702 (Article) Published by Oxford University Press DOI: https://doi.org/10.1353/jsh.2006.0008 For additional information about this article https://muse.jhu.edu/article/195869 Access provided by University of Washington @ Seattle (12 Sep 2017 23:54 GMT) THE TRANSNATIONAL CONTEXTS OF EARLY TWENTIETH-CENTURY AMERICAN URBAN SEGREGATION By Carl H. Nightingale State University of New York at Buffalo “Segregation is apparent everywhere,” warned Dr. Ernest Lyon to a standing- room only congregation at Baltimore’s largely black John Wesley Methodist Episcopal Church on December 4, 1910. Cities divided by race could be found “not only in the United States, but even in Africa, the natural habitat of the black man.” Lyon could speak from experience. He had just returned from Liberia, where he had been the U.S. Resident Minister and Consul General since 1903. In his sermon he reported that in the neighboring British colony of Sierra Leone “the whites have vacated the valleys, leaving them to the blacks, while they have escaped to the mountains. This method obtains throughout that vast continent, wherever the Anglo-Saxon and Teuton are found.”1 Lyon was speaking of “Hill Station,” an all-European residential zone that British authorities developed on a small mountaintop a few miles outside Free- town, Sierra Leone’s capital, on a plan borrowed from longstanding practices in India.2 He also may have been alluding to reports of intensifying segregation in South Africa.

  • The First Integration of the University of Maryland School of Law
    CORE Metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk Provided by Digital Commons @ UM Law The First Integration of the University of Maryland School of Law DAVID SKillEN BOGEN The 1935 court order requiring the University of Maryland School of Law to admit Donald Gaines Murray was the first success of the NAACP's campaign to end segregation in the public schools, but it was not the first time the law school had been integrated. 1 Nearly half a century earlier, in 1889, two black students had graduated from the school. Two other black students attended during the next academic year, but the law school then excluded them and all other blacks until Murray reopened the doors. The story of that first, brief integration of the univer­ sity law school began with the struggle of blacks to be admitted to the bar and ended with the tragedy of virulent racial prejudice. At the beginning of the nineteenth century each court in Maryland controlled the admission of lawyers to practice befure it. None admitted blacks. 2 In 1832 a state statute setting some urllform standards for bar admission limited eligibility to free, white males. This racial restriction may have been prompted by Nat Turner's 1831 rebellion in neighboring Virginia, an event that led the 1831-1832 session of the assembly to enact other laws designed to control both the slave and the free black populations. 3 The codification of racial discrimination made it more difficult to eliminate in later years when white society was more willing to accept the existence of black lawyers.

He was one of the first and most vigorous opponents of the prohibition amend­ ment to the u. s. Constitution. He attempted to develop trade with Russia during the early post-revolutionary years, and early recommended partial recognition of the new government.

  • A DUEL in ARLINGTON Ruth M. Ward
    A DUEL IN ARLINGTON By Ruth M. Ward In 1826, in what is now Arlington, a noted duel took place, not far from the Virginia end of Chain Bridge. The duelists were Secretary of State Henry Clay and United States Senator John Randolph of Roanoke. Interesting and varying written accounts tell of the event. Certain remarks on Executive Powers, made by Randolph before the Senate on March 30, 1826, were taken as an insult by Clay, and he called Ran­ dolph out in a duel. General Jessup, who was to be one of Clay's seconds, delivered the challenge to Randolph. Efforts by friends to smooth over the in­ nuendos of Randolph that so inflamed Clay were futile, and arrangements were made for the duel. Saturday, April 8, 1826, at half past four o'clock in the afternoon was fixed as the time for it; a spot in a dense forest on the Virginia side of the Potomac above the Little Falls Bridge (now Chain Bridge), as the place. Pistols were to be the weapons, the distance was to be ten paces, each party was to be attended by two seconds and a surgeon. There was to be no practis_­ ing. It was at the wish of Randolph that the duel would take place in Virginia. If he fell, he wished to fall on the soil "endeared to him by every tie of devoted loyalty and affection." General Jessup, and Senator Josiah S.
