orally known as the Potomac flats case
and which involved questions relating to
the title of the land and water comprised
within the limits of the Improvement. The
decision virtually sustained the contention
of the United States as to title, declaring
the Kidwell and other claims on section
invalid and confirming the title of the
United States to the wharves on Water

the prosecution of the Improvement
Col. Allen says that the amount that can
be profitably expended on the Potomac

the amount required for the completion Of
