WICHITA, Kan., J.-.n. 5.-Wlchlta fans
and tho stockholders in tho Wichita Baa-.
Ball association are wondering what they
will do for a ball park next summer if
the plans of curtain parties succeed.
They Wichita bull pari: Is located on an
island. The other day a party of land
seekers, backed by 11 lawyer, uwooped
down upon Wichita, stnknd four Islands
in the ArknnsHH river and proceeded itT
erect house?. They claim the lslandn hv
light of a ntnto law relating to the set
tlement of school landiN F. Dumont
Smith of Hutchinson Is tho lawyer in the
case. He recently won title to an island
near Hutchinson by means of similar til
ings. " "
Wonderland park, or Ackerman's Island,
him property valued at $209,000. The
Wtchlta downtown park la Included In
the property clamedl by the "squatters"
0,1 Ackerman island. Tho ball park la
b-.it aSiuarter of a mlio from the princi
pal corner of tho city und was completed
last year at a cost of about $15,000. Tho
"squatter" planned to build hts cabin in
tho center of the diamond, but was pro
vented from entering tho park by Ground
keeper Moss. He tried to gain an en
tranco to .the park with his lumber, but
Moss refused to open tho gates without
an order from Secretary McMullau. He
built his cabin Just outside tho parK
fence.
Wonnlerlond park Is owned by A. B.
Nuttle and a company of IrfO stockholders.
The records at the court house show that
a former ownen of tho land was given d
opulent to the land under a. homestead act
of 1880. Ho deeded the property to the
present owners. The '"squatters" will
mako their fight on tho grounds that tho
government survey did not go beyond the,
banks of the river, that recently when
the government surrendered islands in
the Arkansas river to the state that all
lands In tho river became subject to
settlement. The stale supreme' court, de
cided for the settler In a previous case
j and the "squatters" claim that tho United
mates patent -wm not count because the
government had no right to give It.
A temporary Injunction was granted tho
present owners preventing the "squatters"
from building and the case will come nip
later. Should tho "squatters" win It Is
doubtful just what they will expect from
the Wichita Base Ball company. as they
will claim the ball park and may ask a
prohibitive rent for Its use.
