CITIZENS BELIEVE
COUNCIL SKsULD 60 SLOW

Much interest is conferred in the
opinion City Solicitor Daniel o. Hast
ings will submit to City Council to-
night, on the question of ownership
of the land under water between the
low water mark and the proposed
bulkhead on the Delaware river front
in connection with the proposed agree
ment between the city and the Will
mington Terminal Company and it's
associates. whereby the city is TO ac-
quire two small pieces Of river front
property, for its assistance in induc-
ing the government to complete the
bulkhead
Mr. Hastings has the opinion ready
but would not discuss the matter until
City Council had received the opinion.
There was much speculation last
night among the members OF Council
as 10 what the opinion will contain.
Mr.. Hastings has not as yet passed
upon the question although some peo-
pie are giving the impression that he
has he having merely passed upon the
legal phraseologv of the proposed
agreement and not upon any question
OF ownership of the land in question.
The constitutionality of this act II
is claimed by many should first be de-
cided upon before Council makes any
move. Some Of the Councilmen en-
tertain this opinion and it is thought
that the Council will probably delay
any action it might have contempla L

riparian owners are beyond doubt en-
titled to the land they claim as theirs
