THE BLoDGET CLAIM.
The Hearing OF the Case Set Dow N
for Next MOnday


The first hearing in the celebrated case
of tho heirs of Lorin Blodgcs against
Ulysses s. Grant and others was to-day set
down by Judge Hagner, in the Equity
Court, for Monday next This suit in
wolves the title to vast tract of land in
the northern part of tho city and county.
The hearing comes on on a petition of tho
defendants to dismiss the amended bill of
the plaintiffs. The plaintiffs recently dis
missed their bill against nearly all the de-
PENDANTS and filed new bill. The new
bill did not include tho dismissed defend
ants, but some of their property Is involved
in the new bill. They now say that II
they are not practically defendants, their
property is involved and the suit casts a
cloud on their title, and in view of tho dis
missal Of the first bill against thom, they
claim absolute exemption from the suit.
