CITY WINS FIRST.
Controversies Over IIiird street Moves
ID Notch.

The city wins temporary possession
OF the disputed tract of ground on
Ihird street claimed by Mrs. ]. M.
Judge Dana this morning handed
down a decision in the Meade contro-
versy over a 12-foot strip of ground
running from Fillmore street to the al
ley between Fillmore and Clay streets
on Third street The city claimed that
Mrs ]. NJ. Meade had lost possession
of that tract of ground because it had
been used as thoroughfare by the pub
lie Tor the past 20 years. Mrs. Meade
recently fenced in the disputed tract,
closing it to the public. Mrs. Meade
wanted the city to pay her for the strip
of land but the city council thought its
case was good and ordered the city
attorney to fight the matter out in the
courts.
A strip of land on Fillmore street,
fronting several lots on Fillmore street
near Third street and the alley in the
rear OF those lots is still subject of
dispute. The ownership of these strips
OF land, however, was not made por-
ton the city council will take with ref
erence to these if any is a matter Of
conjecture.
THAT matter hasn't been settled by
the court as yet and is not touched in
the trial of this case said J. B. Lari-
r1er. attorney for Mrs. Meade. AS far
as that other is concerned We will pro-
badly appeal from the decision of
Judge Dana and take it to the supreme
court for trial. We will try to have a
motion entered for a new trial.
Il would like to see them try to do
something with that other ground on
Fillmore street." said F. G. Dreaming,
city attorney. "They have sold lots
there and they will have to keep that
street and alley Open"
