CITY CLAIMS SEVENTH STREET
Will Resist the Rock Wand's ' Protectorategu
Over the Thoroughfare.
APPEALS' TO THE SUPREME COURT
CHr Attorney Wmlmrorth Complete !
Ill * Ilrlef In the Cnne oticl lias
It Itenilx to Kite at Once
In Uen Molnc * .
City Attorney Wadsworth has completed
the preparation for bis arguments In the
appeal taken by the city from the decision
of the district court In the Injunction suit
brought by the Chicago , Ilock Island & Pa
cific Hallway company to restrain the city
from Interfering with Its possession of
Seventh street. The papers will be flled
with the supreme court In the course of
the next few days for the October term.
The litigation between the Rock Island
and the city over the possession of Seventh
street , where the company's tracks cross at
Fourteenth avenue , commenced several
years ago and the present suit was handed
doun from the former administration. The
Ilock Island railway claims possession of
Seventh street , where Us numerous tracks
cross between Thirteenth and Fourteenth
avenues , and denies the right ot the city
to order It to lay planking between Its rails
or do anything else to make the thoroughfare -
faro passable to the public. The railway
claims possession of the street on three
grounds : First , that tbo street was never
dedicated to the city ; second , that It holds
a deed for the land comprising the street
from the late John T. Baldwin and others ;
third , that It has secured possession by
rescrlptlon , or In other words , that the
city has lost Its rights by abandonment.
In 1891 the city ordered the street brought
to grade and let the contract for the work.
_ .
The railroad company at once-brought In
junction proceedings against the city to re
strain It from doing any work on that
portion occupied by Its tracks. A com
promise was effected at the time nnd the
railroad company brought the portion occu
pied by its right of way up to grade as
ordered by the city and withdrew the In
junction suit. In 1S95 the residents of that
neighborhood made complaint to the city
council and requested that the Rock Island
company be compelled to plank between Its
tracks and make the street passable both
for teams and foot passengers. In view
of the agitation the company then com
menced Injunction proceedings against the
city to restrain It from Interfering with Its
possession of the street. The- case was
heard before Judge Green In the district
court and resulted In favor of the railroad
and the Injunction sought was granted.J
From this the city took an appeal but It la
only now that the papers In the appeal have
been completed.
City Attorney Wadsworth In his argument
Insists that It had never been necessary for
the city of Council Bluffs to take any ac
tion whatever for the opening of Sixth ,
Eighth or Ninth streets where crossed by
the Hock Island's right-of-way and contends -
tends that If the city has the right to oc
cupy and use said streets where the same
are crossed by the railroad's right-of-way
It has for'the same reason and with equal
logic the right to Seventh street where the
plaintiff's tracks cross the street. He con-
tends that it is shown beyond all dispute
that these streets are continuous through
the same addition and the citizens of Coun
ell Bluffs have a right to occupy them for
street purposes and , while It Is plainly seen
:
wherein the city has the right , it Is not
clear to see where the railroad In this case
.
gets its right or authority to occupy said
street under deeds which ho alleges the
Rock Island company itself does not recog-
nlzo and which were not Introduced In evl
dence by the railroad at the hearing In tuu
district court and which were made years |
after said streets were platted and dedicated
to the use ot the public. As another argu
ment in support ot his position City Attorney -
ney Wadsworth sets up that the Rock Island
recognized the fact that Seventh street was
continuous across Its right-of-way , as when
the company built Its freight house It built
the same up to but not beyond the line of
Seventh street.

exhibit promises to be an eyeopener to
the visitors at the exposition next week.
The exhibit next Friday and Saturday will

way Intended to conflict w\th \ "Grape day"
at the exposition , which has been set for
September 16 , and on which day the mem
bers of the Grape Grower * ' Shipping as
sociation at a meeting held a couple of
weeks ago decided to contribute a large
*
quantity of the fruit for free distribution.
The Interest displayed at the meeting yes
terday gives assurance that the exhibit

cess and a credit to the fruit growers of
this section of the county. The following
committee was selected to ollclt fruit for
the exhibit : Dan Smith , chairman ; James
Hcreld , J. P. Hesa , W. S. Ktellne and
Freeman Meneray. The committee was In
structed to Invite all the members of the

Mary Ratlin , the 7-year-old daughter of
David Rotllff of 620 North Ninth street , was
seriously and possibly fatally Injured In a
runaway accident yesterday afternoon on
Pearl street. The little girl and her 15-year-
old brother , Thomas , were driving In a
buggy , and on turning from Fifth avenue on
to Pearl street , going north , a collision occurred -
curred between their buggy and a phaeton
driven by Liveryman Mlnnlck going south.
The front wheel of the buggy In which the
children were was torn off and the horse ,
frightened by the collision , dashed off at a
frantic speed. The boy was thrown out at
the start , but the little girl , whoso frightened
shrieks could be heard for blocks , was
dragged as far as the corner of Willow ave
nue , where the horse swerved and the child
was thrown against the curb. The child on
being picked up was unconscious , with
blood pouring from a gash In her head. By
standers quickly carried her to Dr. Macrae's
office In the Merrlam block , where examina
tion showed that the forehead had been
dented In , although the skull had not been
fractured. She was terribly bruised about the
body , and the skin had been scraped In sev
eral places from her limbs and arms from
being dragged along the paved street. The
child was later removed to her home , and
the attending physicians expressed the optn
ion that the little one might recover If con
cusslon of the brain did not result. The boy
escaped with a sprained wrist and a few
bruises.
