The day book. [volume] (Chicago, Ill.) 1911-1917, 1915-06-23


In 1852 the Illinois Central was
given the right to run to the river
from 51st. on piles in the lake. The
legislature offered it right of way
200 feet wide through the state, but
could give it none of the lake front
because of a decision or the U. S. SUI
preme court which held that the state
could not take away the riparian
rights of the people to naVigable
body of water.
The 1. c., however, gradually filled
in the land between the lake shore
and it's piles. It took possession of
this and by building a wall along the
front shut off the people from their
beach.
Knowing that it had no right to the
lake front the road, w1en John Bar
ton Payne, attorney for the packers,
and the late Edward Tilden, a stock
yards power, bossed the South Park
board, made a contract to give up
it's riparian rights. Which rights
it did not have.
The Chicago Junction Railroad,
known as the Belt Line, runs over
the Illinois Central tracks and is as
ISOLATED in business with the l. C.
Payne is attorney for this road and
it is owned by the Chicago Union
Stock Yards Co.
The South Park board agreed to
give the l. G.. a strip of land 600 feet
wide and six miles long, for the rights
which it claimed to have 70 the lake
front. This, if legal, would not only
give the railroad it's present holdings,
but 100 acres submerged land as well.
The data of the Chiperfield report
to the legislature, which called the
l. c. holdings steal and directed the
attorney general to push a suit in the
supreme court, is now before the
commission. This suit was started,
ran along for three years, and was
quietly dropped.
