H. Greenshields F.les a Olaim Under a Mortgage from John W. Paul, \llLLINOIS CENTRAL ROAD 1S INVOLVED City Flles Answer Denying Claims of Wright & Mayne and Pléading | i on for Adverse Poswes Ten Years. The controversy over the title to Big lake, one of the parks of the city of Coun- ¢l Blufts, has now assumed a triangular form. J. P. Greenshiclds, who claims to own a portion of the land abutting on the lake by virtue of a mortgage from John W. ! Paul, has brought suit of foreclosure against R C. Howell and the Chicago & North- western Rallroad company. While Howell and the Nofthwestern rallroad are named as the defendants in Greenshields' sult, it is generally understood that the action | §s against the Illinois Central rallroad, as its right of way passes through a portion of the, lake. The Illinols Central secured its right of way through a grant from the city park board and built a trestle through the lake. Its right to maintain this trestle is now attacked by the suits of Wright & Mayne and Greenshields. In the event of Wright & Mayne establishiLg their claim to the center of the lake, the Illinols Cen- tral would have no title to its present right of way. The same question of title is in- volved in the suit begun by Greenshields. The city of Council Bluffs yesterday filed its answer to the suit commenced by Wright & Mayne, In which it claims an absolute ownership of the lake and accreting land. pects to receive the opinion of the county attorney as to the interest the county has in Big and Carr lakes, which will deter- mine the action of the board in the con- troversy now pending over the title to the first named lake between the park com- missioners of Council Bluffs and Wright & Mayne. If the county attorney gives it as his opinion that the county has no claim in either lake the board, it is expected, will take no hand in the litigation. John H. Plumer Located.

Plumer's friends regarding his absence from home was re- lleved yesterday, when it was learned that he was in Arlington, Neb, in the interests of the South Omaha firm by which he was employed EVIDENCE IN MKAY CASE IN!
