1884 the city of Minneapolis issued
bonds to the amount of $748,O0O, which
bonds are still upnaid, and are a lien
on the parks of said city. The city
offers to take the necessary steps to
release this park from these liens and
to indemnify the state against any
claim or liability which might arise
therefrom, and their powers to do 50
is not questioned.
"From the examination Of the briefs
submitted, and from such further ex-
animation as your committee was
able to make, we are of the opinion
that the city of Minneapolis has no
authority to convey legal title Of
Loring Park to the state. That it
is beyond the power of the legislature
to confer such authority"
AS soon as it had been read Mr.. I'm
derleaK moved that the report be
adopted, and the motion was seconded
Mr.. Feig-I desire to offer an amend
ment to the report by having added
to Mr.. Underleak's motion the words
"and return the communication &C.
companying the same to the city Of
ficials of Minneapolis"
The motion, as amended, was adopt
ed without dissenting vote.
The Hennepin delegation met in the
morning and decided to drop the cap

that the best plan would be to abide
by the decision of the Judiciary com
mittee and allow the matter to rest.
