COUNCIL
tlU'S TITLE IS PERFECT
Jaige Wheeler Fii Hit Opinioa in Case
InToWinj Bij Lit
ADVERSE TO PLAINTIFF ON ALL POINTS
Judge droit of Superior Court An
Bounce That Old Case Will Be
Wiped Off the
Docket.
According to the decision of Judge
Wheeler of the district court In the ult
brought by Oeorge B. VTrlght end George
H. Mayne to wreat a portion of Lakevlew
park from the city, the City of Council
Blurts ha an unassailable title to the
property In controversy not only by grant
of congress, bur also by adverse posses
sion for a period exceeding ten years. Three
weeks ago Judge Wheeler handed down his
decision dlsmlHslng the suit of Wright and
Mayne, but the decree In the case was not
glgned and entered for record until yes
terday.
In the decree the court finds thtit the
plaintiffs Wright and Mayne, as owners
of property abutting on the government
meandered lake, formally known aa Big
lake, did not give them title to any part
of the hind within the meandered lines of
aid 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 s.nd
Mayne contended that a portion of the pros
nt park was In fact accreted land and as
such Ix'longed to them as owners of tlio
property abutting.
The court further holds that the City of
Council I! luffs 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 Is adverse to the contention of
Mayne and Wright that congress granted
to tho City of Council Bluffs property 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 Bolt.
In the suit brought by Wright and Mayne
to restrain the city from levying taxes for
municipal 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 suit of Gertie Taylor
against John Taylor, 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 vlfe had from
shortly after their marriage treated him In
- a cruel and Inhuman manner; that she
had threatened to poison him and on one
occasion had hurled a lighted lamp at htm.
He asks that he be granted the divorce In
' place of her and that he also be given the
' custody of their minor son, for .'oa al

la the Superior Court.
With the opening of the September term
of the . superior court Judge Scott an
nounced that he would clean the docket of
'the cases which have been encumbering
It for one year or more. These cases will
be dismissed unless the parties Interested
file trial notices within a few days. Judge
Scott is growing weary of term after term
of court passing without a single case
being tried before him. Some of the cases
on the docket have been there so long that
they have becomo mildewed or fossilized.
Judge Scott yesterday went through the
formality of making an assignment, which
Is as follows:

Robert Stevens, a medical student living
at 1028 Fifth avenue, was the victim of a
peculiar accident while returning - from
Omaha about midnight Monday, He was
standing on the rear platform of one of
the new car and leaning slightly over the
ratling, when he was struck by a west
bound car and rendered unconscious. A
stiff hat which he was wearing evidently
saved him from a fractured skull. His
right arm was badly bruised. The accident
occurred at Thlsty-tlfth street and Stevens
waa brought up town, where he waa at
tended by Dr. V. L. Treynor.
The accident was mainly due to the fact
h widur than itin
' ' 1 ,u"
of the new car
ks there is very
that the new cars are roue
old onea and when two
meet on tne parallel tracks there is very
little space between them. On some of the
curves the new cars cannot pass each
other. The apace between the new car
when passing one another Is further
lessened by the fact that they all sag on
the left aide because of the motors' being
loaded on that side Instead of In the centor.
Stevens' Injuries, while painful, are not '
thought to be serious unless It should de
velop that when the swelling of the arm
goes down some of the bpnea are fractured.
The accident It la 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 on, the open cars.

Llndt Roes on Claim.
Attorney John Undt, 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
M-7S a cord, has discovered that the county
owes him K1.96 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 a mistake of
eleven and three-quarter cords In favor of
the county. At the recent session of the
board of supervisors Llndt 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 at the time
and not two years after the contract had
expired.

Governor Cummins Has Ills Speech

paign. (From a SafT Correspondent.)
DES MOINES. Sept. 22-(Speclal.)-The
first case of the kind ever brought to trial
In Iowa was opened this morning before
the state election board, consisting of At
torney General Mullan, Secretary of State
Martin and Auditor of Stat Carroll, being
a contest to decide which of two persons
Is to be regarded ns 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 rotary. B. T. Robinson of
Armstrong, the present Incumbent of the
office, appeared with his attorney, N. J.
Lee, who Is assisted by Judge Carr of this
city. Dr. Q. C. Fuller of Mllford appeared
with L. E. Francis as attorney and Is
assisted by Senator Cheshire of this city.
With Mr. Robinson are W. R. Ashford,
C. C. Galloway, F. C. Hennlngson, J. A.
Flnlayson and William Stewart, all dele
gates to the convention. F. P. Woods, who
was chairman of the delegation, and F. C.
Williams, who presided at the convention,
will pome tomorrow. Dr. Fuller was ac
companied by Dr. A. E. Rector, Fred
Jones. Kasson Myers and E. E. Holdreg
of the Dickinson delegation. C. A. Wil
liams, the Dickinson member of the com
mittee, also came.
The protests of the contestants were
read and the taking of testimony . com
menced. Carr and Cheshire stated the
positions of their respective sides In the
controversy, from which It became evident
that no serious 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 RoMnson
Is not entitled to a place on the ticket.
The Emmet county delegation contends
that Robinson waa properly nominated.
The Dickinson county contention Is that
only a part of the convention participated,
and that not a quorum, hence no nomina
tion 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 failed
to get to any kind of an agreement, and
there wtre two conventions held.

abutments for a bridge, and let the con
tract for the bridge to a local firm for
139,976. The firm did not build the bridge,

SHUTS OUT GREAT WESTERN
Northwestern Scores Heavily Through
Action of the ftloux City
Aldermen.
SIOUX CITT, Bept. 2!-(8peclal.)-By en
gineering a measure through the council In
one night the Northwestern railroad has
scored a coup by which It will be extremely
difficult and expensive for the Great West
ern road to get Into Bloux City. The situa
tion here Is similar to the one at Omaha
and will result In a fierce fight between the
roads. The Northwestern secured from the
council a free grant of stub street across
the right of way of the Northwestern which
effectually shuts out the entrance of the
Oreat Western road along the Floyd valley
and through the stock yards district.
This was the route approved by President
Ptlckney 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.

WASHINGTON, Sept. C The Weather
bureau's wcek!y crop bulletin bay:
Notwithstanding the occurrence of light
to heavy frosts generally throughout the
corn belt, the corn crop has escaped In
Jury, except In the western portions of
Kansas and Nebraska and In the Dakota,
Minnesota, find Wisconsin.
While low temperature have prevented
rapid ripening, especially over the western
districts, the crop as a whole has advanced
favorably, although tho late planted in the
Ohio valley and In Tennessee has suffered
from drouth. A large part of the crop la
now safe, but the bulk of the unmatured
will require from one to two week of fa
vorable weather.
The weather ha been favorable for the
completion of spring wheat harvest on tho
northern Pacific coast. In the Dakota 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 valley and In
Tennessee, where the soil has been too
dry, and In the northern portion of the
middle Atlantic states, where there lias
been too much rain.

Where
A man went Into a grocery store one day to
buy a pound of coffee. He wanted what he'd been
brought up to believe was the best, and asked
for "Mocha and Java, mixed." The groce
dived down into one dusty bin and then another, emerging each
time with a scoop-full of coffee. These he proceeded to mix, and
central, western and In some northern coun
ties corn was much damaged by the frosts.
Director Sage of the Iowa Crop Service
bureau Issued a crop bulletin for the week
ending September 1, says: The first half
of the past week was unseasonably cold,
wet and cloudy, and the last three days
were fair and much more favorable for the
matured crops. At the Des Moines station
the dally average temperature was 9
degree below normal. The deficiency was
greater In the west and north, and less In
the south and east districts. In all section
light to heavy frosts Were reported and at
a few stations the frosts were described
a "killing" on the 17th and 18. Later
reports, however, do not Justify this ex
treme designation, except as to effect on
tender vegetations and on very low ground.
The corn crop appears to have escaped
any very serious damage, even In Mocalltle
where the temperature was lowest. The
subsequent drying winds have been very
favorable to the most advanced portion of
the crop, and corn harvesters have begun
operation In all ectlons. With continued
ripening weather the bulk of the crop will
be safe from harm by frort by September
SO. But some bf the area planted will yield
nothing but poor fooder. Threshing was
delayed by wet weather, and jeport In-
dlcate considerable damage to rrnln In
stacks aa well as shock. Plowing Is well
advanced.

original strength and flavor. It's the only coffee
that goes to the consumer direct from the plan
tation on which it is grown.
