GREAT LAND SUIT At CIL{CIGO.

An important suit has lately been tried in the United
States circuit court for the northern district of Illinois, in
which was involved the title to the Lake Shore Depot
grounds Of the Illinois Central Railroad Company, valued
at two millions Of dollars Judge Mclean was the pre-
siding Judge, and Hon. Thomas Drummond associate
The point in controversy depended the situation of the
mouth of the Chicago river when the plaintiff obtained
his title to fractional section ten In preliminary de-
cson Judge Mclean says 'Ihe southern boundary of
fraction ten which is claimed by the plaintiff is admitted
to be the Chicago river but it is insisted by the plaintiff
that the mouth Of the Chicago river at the time his title
accrued, quarter or half mile further down
than it is and that the river separated the land
claimed from the south fraction, and that it
cd with other land than the south fraction of section
ten and consequently formed a part Of it,"
Judge nj. also says s'Where fraction s less than lG0
acres whatever its form may be, it passes fraction
under the law in force at the inception of the plaintiff
title. And the question is, whether the land in contro
vesy not part of the north fraction of
ton ten Now this fraction IS connected with other
land 1t divided from the main land and in such
thcnavigable river is the boundary 1t could not be
veyed claimed in any other connection.
.sA new outlet the lake has been made by the gov
for the Chicago river, and this cuts off the
nection of the tract in controversy from fraction ten.
Now If the government had sold this part of the fraction,
and it had become the property of an individual it could
only be in the mode provided for the appropriation Of
private property for public purposes and this it seems
has not boon done aa
sThe defendant shows meandering line what is
called the shore of the lake. but which, the plain
tiff alleges at the time the shore of the Chicago
river, and the mouth of that river is than
half mile from the place where it was, as alleged when
the entry under which the plaintiffs claim made "
After hearing large amount of evidence, being chiefly
the testimony of old residents as to the original locality
of the mouth of the river the argued at length
by the eminent counsel each slde and given to the
jury, who, after due debetion, rendered verdict in
favor OF the company. . Il .
