THE OMAHA DAILY BEE: WEDNESDAY, SEFTEMBER 23, NEWS O F INTEREST FROM IOWA. M COUNCIL (ITY'S TITLE IS PERFECT Judge Wheeler Files His Opinion in Case Involving Big Laks ADVERSE TO PLAINTIFF ON ALL POINTS Judge Scott of Saperior Court An- mounces That Old Cases Will Be Wiped Off the Doeket. According to the decision of Judge Wheeler of the district court in the suit brought by George 8. Wright and George H. Mayhe to wrest a portion of Lakeview park from the city, the City of Counecll Bluffs has an unassallable title to the property In controversy not only by grant ot congress, buf® also by adverse posses- slon for a perfod exceeding ten years. Three weeks ago Judge Wheeler handed down his decision dismissing the suit of Wright and Mayne, but the decree in the case was not signed and entered for record unul yes- terday. In the decree the court finds that the plaintifts Wright and Mayne, as owners of property abutting on the government meandered lake, formally known as Big lake, did not give them title to any part of the land within the meandered lines of sald lake. Further the court holds that there is no part of the lands within said original government meandered lines which had become or are accretions. Wright and Mayne contended that a portion of the pres ent park was in fact accreted land and as such nged to them as owners of tie property abutting The court further holds that the City of Council Bluffs is invested with the title to all of the tract within the government meandered lines of Big lake by grant of congress of the United States and by ad- verse possession for a period exceeding ten years. This fs adverse to the contention of Mayne and Wright that congress granted 1o the City of Council Bluffs propérty be- longing to private individuals and to which the government had no title. In conclusion Judge Wheeler finds that Wright and Mayne have no right, title or interest in or to any of the lands under or out of water within the original govern- ment meandered lines of Big lake. Win Tax Suit. In the suit brought by Wright and Mayno o restrain the city from levying taxcs for munigipal purposes on their property abut- ting Big lake, the court decided that the land was held for agricultural purposes only and as such was not subject to assess- ment for city taxes. In the divorce sult against John lor, the defendant yester- day filed his answer and cross petition. Taylor asserts that he has been all that a dutiful and loving husband should be, but that on the contrary, his wife had from shortly after their marriage treated him in ® cruel and inhuman manner; that she had threatened to poison him and on cne occasion had hurled a lighted lamp at him.

Robert Stevens, a medical student iiving at 1028 Fifth avenue, was the victim of a pecullar accident while returning from Omaha about midnight Monday. He was standing on the rear platform of one of | the new cars and leaning siightly over the | ralling, when he was struck by a west- bound car and rendered unconscious. A SUt hat which he was wearing evidently saved him from a fractured skull His right arm was badly brulsed. The accident | occurred at Thisty-fth street and Stevens was brought up town, where he was at- tended by Dr. V. L. Treynor. The accldent was mainly due to the fact | that the new cars are much wider than the old ones and when two of the new cars | meet on the parallel tracks there s very | little space between them. On some of the curves the new cars cannot pass each other. The space between the new cars | when passing one another is lurnmri lessened by the fact that they all sag on the left side becauss of the motors’ belng loaded on that side instead of n the centor. | Stevens' Injuries, while painful, are not thought to be serlous unless it should de- velop that when the swelling of the arm goes down some of the bones are fractured. The accident it fs expected will result in the motor company placing guard screens | on the left side of the rear platform of the | new cars similar to those op the open cars. Democrats Select Chal Attorney F. W. Miller of this city has been selected as chairman of the demo- cratic county central committee. It is the intention of the demoerats to have a big rally in this city some time during Oc- tober, at which Jerry Suilivan, the can- didate for governor, will be the principal speaker. Another meeting is also proposed at which an effort will be made to secure Willlam J. Bryan as the principal speaker. Tol, 3. Night, Feer. N. Y.

Attorney John Lindt, who two years ago had a contract with the board of super- visors to furnish cord wood for the county courthouse and poor of Kane township, at $4.75 a cord, has discovered that the county owes him $1.9 on the contract and yester- day brought suit to recover the amount in Justice Carson's court. Lindt claims that a mistake was made two years ago In measuring the wood supplied by him to the county and that there was & mistake of eleven and three-quarter cords in favor of the county. At the recent session of the board of supervisors Lindt presented a bill which was promptly turned down, the supervisors taking the stand that if any mistake had been made their attention ought to have been called to it ut the time and not two years after the contract had expired Plumbing and Hea Bixby & Son.

GENERAL WEAVER STRIKES OIL IN SOUTH Governor Cammins Has His Speech Prepared and is Ready for Open- ing of the State Cam- paign, (From a Staft Correspondent.) DES MOINES, Bept. 22.-(Special.)~The first case of the kind ever brought to trial in Towa was opened this morning before the state election board, consisting of At- torney General Mullan, Secretary of State Martin and Auditor of State Carroll, being a contest to decide which of two persons is t0 be regarded as the regular republican nominee for representative in the Emmet. | Dickinson district. The contest court is presided over by the attorney general and witnesses were sworn in by a notary. B, F. Robinson of Armstrong, the present incumbent of the office, appeared with his attorney, N. J Lee, who s assisted by Judge Carr of this city. Dr. Q. C. Fuller of Milford appeared with L. E. Francls as attorney and is assisted by Senator Cheshire of this city. With Mr. Robinson are W. R. Ashford, C. C. Galloway, F. C. Henningson, J. A Finlayson and Willlam BStewart, all dele- gates to the convention. F. P. Woods, who was chalrman of the delegation, and F. C.

Wil- liams, the Dickinson member of the com- mittee, also came. The protests of the contestants read and the taking of testimony menced. Carr and Cheshire stated the positions of their respective sides in the | controversy, from which it became evident | that no serfous effort would be made to | prove that Fuller was really nominated, | but the force of the contest would be directed to showing that at least Robinson is not entitled to a place on the ticket The Emmet county delegation contends that Robinson was properly nominated. | The Dickinson county contention is that| only a part of the convention participated, | and that not a quorum, hence no nomina- | tlon was legally made. From the way the matter started out the contest will last at least two days. A number of witnesses were examined today, the general tendency | being to indicate that the convention faled ! to get to any kind of an agreement, and | there were two conventions held. were com- atal Fall of Painter.

The sit: tion here is similar to the one at Omaha and will result in a flerce fight between the roads. The Northwestern secured from the council & free grant of stub streets across the right of way of the Northwestern which effectually shuts out the entrance of the Great Western road along the Floyd valley and through the stock yards district. This was the route approved by President Stickney and in fact the only feasible one. Now the Great Western will have to come in through the Perry creek valley or bore through the hills, both plans Involving great expense.

While low temperatures have prevented rapid ripening, especlally over the western districts, the crop as a whole has advanced tavorably, although the late planted in the Ohfo valley and in Tennessee has suffered trom drouth. A large part of the crop is now safe, but the bulk of the unmatured will require from one to two weeks of fa- vorable weather. The weather has been favorable for the completion of spring wheat harvest on the northern Pacific coast. In the Dakotas and Minnesota spring wheat in shock has been injured and threshing delayed by wet weather. Plowing and seeding have advanced satis- factorily except in the Ohio valiey and in Tennessee, where the soil has been too dry, and in the northern portion of the middle Atlantic states, where there has been too much rain.
