held by the city, bounded by One-hundred and-ffty
fourth and One.hundred- and fifty fifth sts Eighth
ave. and McComb's Dam Road Owing 10 the fact
that the title IS in litigation, the property being
claimed also by Nathaniel Jarvis, ir and the heirs
of James Connor the city can rent n only by the
month and therefore been getting about $500 or
500 year for it, Its nearness TO the new baseball
grounds hss made II valuable and Controller Myers
was visited yesterday by number of anxious ctzons
who we're willing 10 pay large advances upon the
present rentals Alderman Carn offered $50 month
for It John Madden who has been occupying part OF
It, bid up TO 800, anil George Breen and Edward

The Controller has come TO no decision about leasing

he thinks he could get s. 900 year for IT, but owing
to the pending litigation this cannot be DONE
