FIGHTING FOR The TITLE
Ten Thousand Square Feet Of
Ground in Southwest in Dispute.
Government Lays Claim to the Parcel,
Although Mr.. Luchs Has Had Pos
sess ion Many Years.

"A suit full of old documentary evidence.
and accompa MED with much research and
labor. is being argued before Chief Justice
Bingham by Assistant District Attorney
c. II. Armes. II was taken up yesterday
morning and sets up claim by the gen.
eral government 70 the ownership of 10000
square feet of ground at the corner of
First and n streets southwest.
The parcel is known as square west of
square $50. II is bounded on the west by
James Creek Canal, on the east by First
street west, and on the south by street.
Canal ST rect exte nded would run through it.
Many years ago the property was taken
possession of and passed into the hands
of Mr.. Leopold Luchs. II now has upon 1t
a frame building, occupied as a store and
a residence. Although in possession, Me.
other property in the District, does not ap-
pear TO be assessed for this at all.
Assessor Trimble, when asked about this
feature of the matter, said he supposed the
title stood in such shape that 1t would not
be assessed to MT. Luchs. 1t was prob
ably considered by the assessors as gov
ernment property.
Mr.. Armes has been employed upon the
evidence in the case at intervals for about
a year He thinks he has a perfect
chain of evidence establishing the govern
ment title, and has no doubt that he will
recover the ground for public use.
Decision was rendered late this after
noon in favor of the government.

Both sermons were brief. The oath was
then administered to the recruits and the

the kings coat. 1t is special honor to
serve in my guards, and be under my eyes
and for this you must be prepared TO sever
all family ties, and be prepared at every
moment 10 obey my call.
The recruits this year ought 10 be full
OF the memory Of the great year when, under
the eyes ofmy grandfather a nd noble ia her,
your brothers fulfilled their most ex-
treme duty.
LAS they fought for honor, so must YOU
lf teupters approach you resent their
advances. They are unworthy of you Be
confident that all that is done is for your
best, and show yourselves to be my true
and dutifu guards at home or abroad in
service or out of service
At the conclusion of the kaiser remarks
the Garde du Corps called for three cheers
for the emperor, which were given. The
band then played, Hell Dir Siegerkranz,"
and the emperor went back to the castle
