the approval of the correspondents,

reason that we often suppress similar

reason is. that while the publication

would incite feelings OF revenge ane

Wharfage PurnnseN

A Railway Asks Land Grant for
Wharfage Purposes.
ALBANY. y. Y, Jan. 23.-The State
Railroad Commission recently granted an
application Of the Lehigh and Lake Erie
Company for permission TO build a short
steam railroad from the Tiff Farm ter
minal Of the Lehigh Valley Railroad 10
Buffalo. The company's application was
only granted after a big fight with the New
York Central Road, which sought to pre-
vent competition with the terminal rail-
way OF Buffalo, the Vanderbilt connection
which traverses practically the same route
The Lehigh Valley Railroad Company has
followed up its victory by filing with the
State Commissioner Of the Land Office
an application for a grant OF land of 226
acres under the waters Of Buffalo Harbor
for the purpose Of erecting thereon bulk
heads, piers. and warehouses. The land is
situated south and north OF Tiff Street
and extends from 100 to 1,200 feet from
the shore line.
A remOnstrance to the granting Of the
application was fled by Octavius o. Cot
tie. OF Buffalo. He alleges that he owns
property having a frontage Of 1920 feet
along the shore line where the land under
water which the application requests is
situated and that being the owner of the
uplands, the land board has no right to
grant the land under water in front of his
premises. At one time the railroad com
pany owned a strip Of land lying between
the lake and Mr.. COttle's property. Mr.
Cottle alleges that this has been washed
away by the action OF the waters of the
lake and that the water front now extends
to his prODertV
