CITY PARK NO MORE.
End of Long L tigation Over Vaiua-
bic La Crosse Land.

La Crosse, Wis, Dec. 49, Special. i
The case of Daniel Cameron VS.. the city
OF La Crosse involving the possession of a
valuable tract of land near the center of
the city, popularity known as the Fourth
Street park, has been decided at Madison
in favor of Cameron. The city has been
used as public square for forty years and
more, though Cameron denies that he ever
donated the land to the city. He has
made repeated efforts 20 recover the prop
erty, and the case has been pending III the
federal courts since 1890 In October,
1889, Cameron and crew of men under
took to fence up the park and thus estab-
hsh his claim to ownership. He started
IL with the work one morning at > O'Clock,
but before he had made much progress
John Dengler, then mayor, and the police
arrested Cameron and his men. and they
Cameron in February, 1890 began an
action of ejectment. This was heard by
Judge Bum in Madison the following
year, and the result was Il verdict for the
plaintiff. There was 4 new trial the fol-
lowing year with the same result. In
to the federal court of appeals in Chicago.
The case was not decided until 1897,
when Judge Jenkins of Milwaukee read
the opinion, giving the city Il new trial
on error The third trial has just been
had before Judge Bum il Madison and
the plalntlH again Won. The case Is OF
considerable Importance locally, and this
third decision will probably end the case.
1t means that quite valuable tract of
land and perhaps other tracts not held by
the city must revert back to the original
owner, Daniel Cameron. Cameron came
TO La Crosse in 1916. and for years was
an Indian trader known all along the up
per river. The case has cost the city over
$4,000 in court costs. attorneys fees, etc
Col. w. T. Villas of Madison and George
H. Gordon of this city were the attorneys
for the plaintiff, and City Attorney Mar
tin Bergh and Losey & Woodward APP
