Abstract of Titlo of the Three Blocks Now in Disputo, The City Has No Rights in Them Which Aro Worth Purchasing. Why the Illinols Central I8 Willing to Pay #800,000, Effoot of the Lake-Front Aot of 1800, To tha Editer of The Chieago Tribune: Crrorao, Nov. 30.—1 have hiad occasion to ex- amine an abstract of title that led me to tho legal hiatory of the Lako-Front, and at a lelsure liour I proparad the following paper, thinking it might be usoful to you 1n any editorial discus- sion of tho aubject n Tnx Trimose. I have no intorest in tho questiov, directly or indirectly, excapt that of any other citizon or taz-payer : It muy bo of use to tho Aldermon and Comp- troller who are now denling with thin question to have an abatract of tho title to tho abova tract of land, and the riparfan rights attached thersto. They seem 1o bo eithor ignorant, or to bavo a vast amount of mislaformation, npoa tho subjoct. It nppoara from tho cass of Wilcox vr. Jack- son, roported in 13 Petars, 498, o caso docided by | the Supreme Court of the United States, that fractional Hee. 10, ombrac tho terri- tory bounded by MadiaoR and Stato atreots, Chiengo avanne and the lnke, wau on the 1at of QOctober, 1824, resorved from salo for military purposos by order of John O. Cal- honn, thon Becrelsry of War. Thoso boundarios includo what s now known as Fort Dearborn, and Kinzio's Additions, and secretlona from tho Iake. Provious to this time, John Baptista Iiean- bien had entersd upon and at the time of the roservation occuplied & part of tho tract, on the south slde of the rivor. In 1831 Robort Kinzie was pormitiod to enter at private sulo the north fraction of fractional Bectlon 10, or 8o much of the . soction as lav notth of tho river. In 1834 Beaubien undertook to pre-ompt all that portion of thoreservation lying south of thoe river, - cluding Fore Dearborn, and Lnown a8 tho sonth- weoat fractional quarter, and {n 1836 he-ubtained & cortificats from tne Rogistor of the Land. Oftico at Chlc‘fl . Ho couveyed to Mnru{ McConnel, & well-knotwrn and eminent Iasyoer ol Illinote. who brought tho ojectmont auit of Jack~ #on va. Wilcox, who was an ofticer in command at Fort Deatboro, In that case, tho Hupremo Court of tho United Btates decided that tho Iand ‘wae not subjoct to eutry, and that Lho absolule titla was in the United Buates, Aftorwards, in 1810, tho Beorstary of War do- termined to gell & portion of the roservation, and sent a Mr. Birchard, then Bolicitor of tha Troas- ury, to Chicago to survey, plat, and sell, tno samo. Ho mado and recorded tho original plat of ‘‘Fort Doarborn Addition to Chicagte.” On this map, Michigan avonue was projected to tho nivor, through land thon occupied by the build- ingn of Fort Deatborn, butb tho tragt mo occn- 'Elad was roserved from sslo and surrounded y dotted lines loltered **lino of resorvation,'” Upon this map also tho sirip of ground between Randolph and Madison stiests, sost of aud fn- cluding Hickigan avonuo, nas designatod as * public ground, forever to romain vncant of buildings,” oud, by a momocanlum added to the map, it was declared that *the public ground between Randolph and Madison streots, and frouting upon Lako Miohigan, is not to be ocou- piad with buildings of suy dosc:iption.” In 1845, on motion of Ald. Besmmon, tho Btreot Commissioner of Chicago was directed (o remove * tho obstructious at tho nor:h end of Michigan avenuo.” Mr. Scammon's theory at that Lmo ovidently was that, by tho recording of the piat and by virtuo of the act of tho Leulnla- turo of lilinois of Feb. 27, 1833, tho fes in Sicu- igau avoous ‘vested in the City of Chicago i trust for the public and subject to the control of tho wunicipal authoritles. As this proposed actlon involved the destruc- tion of a part of the United Biates buildings, the Attorney Genoral Interponod and applied for au {njunction to reatrain the action of the Siroat Comuuissionor, The cnso went to tho Bupremo Court of the United States upon a certificato of division o opinion between the Judges of the District and Circuit Courls upou the question “ whether making and recordiog the map did not cnnvn;h!ha logal cutato In tho streety to the City of Chicago 80 0a to authoilze esid city to keep thom open." Tho 8u;remo Conrt deolded that the making and recording. of the map had uo such effect, aud that tho feo was 1o the Unitod Btates. The caso is reported in 7 Haward, 185. Judge Drum- mond took the same view of this quesuon in the caso _of the Unliod Statos va. Illinoe Con- tral Railrond Company, reported in 24 Bissetl, and applied the tule of tho Supreme Court to tho tract of land lying between Randolph mud Madison streets. Unlesa the foreguing faots can be controverted, or the decisions of the Supremo Court revetsed, it is apparent that tho City of Chicago has no intoreat, legal or equitabls, to that tract, The property-ownors abutting upon it, aud tho publia st Iargo, w0y have ao case- ment for alr, and light, and outlook, but no riparian right can attach theroto except for tho motumn of the essoment, Why is it, then, as the [llinols Central Raslroad” Compauy 8 roady to pay to tho City of Chicago & large sum for & deed, which can convey no title, and 'rhich in itsolf will mot be wzinh tho pnror it may be written oo? 1t ¥is probably becauso the mansgers of Company undor- stand that it vory valuable gerants from tho State of illinoin upon the condl- tlou that it shall pay or ba ever ready and will- ing to pay €800,000 to the city. And’ this leads us to a furthor investigstion of tho title to tho Lake-ront, . The tract of land betwesn 3fadison and ‘Twelfth streats, frcoting on the lake snd known s fraciional Hec, 16, was granted to tha Btato of lihols for conatructing the canal. ‘Lo thia fl’lllt undoubtedly all riparisn rights are at- ached, The Canal Comniissionors desigusted the opon spaca botween the liue of blocks aud tho lske aa * Miclugan avonue.” Thoy have nover parted with the title of the Btate oxcept as they bave dedicated this strip of land for a pub- lio stroot, In 1883, tho city by orainance au- thorizod the Illinois Uentral Rallway to con- atruct and operate its road along the ronte now occupled by 1t, and 400 foet east of tho weat lloo of the avenue, ‘Thus tho title stood when, in 1800, the Logislature passed the act kuown as the Lake-Front act.
