LEGAL BATTLE MAY
FOLLOW PIER LEASE
Hubert Lets Former Ham

Luekenbach Co.
HIS RIGHT CHALLENGED
Alien Property Custodian
Claims Right to Dispose
of the Property.

The report that the Luckenbach Steam
ship Company had acquired the former
neutrality-suspicious. pier at the foot OF
Thirty-third street, South Brooklyn, was
received yesterday as indicating the ap-
proach of a strenuous legal battle. The
| steamship company has obtained the
piers from Dock Commissioner Murray
Hubert. It was announced. at a yearly
rental of s32S.50O; whereas the Ham,
/ burg-American paid only $4,000 an
nually under the terms Of ten year
| lease containing provision for two re-
newala
The Alien Property Custodian has
claimed the pier under the terms of the
| Hamburg American lease, and It was
| stated yesterday that he will takr legal
| steps to challenge the city's right to
dispose of tho property. Until recently
the pier has been used by the Nav
Department.
In announcing the issuance of the
permit to the Luckcnbach company Com
missioner Hubert made public a letter
which he sent to the Mayor on August
4 calling his attention to the fact that
| charges of favoritsm in the disposition
of water front property we're widely cir
culated.
This letter stated that Mr. Lilly OF
Norton, Lilly & Co, steamship agents,
had Informed the Commissioner that he
mad been approached" by person who
had assured him that his concern could
have one or more of the piers to be built
on Staten Island "for a consideration"

tention," the letter continued, that a
real estate broker with an Office at l4s
Broadway is offering for sale the lease

have tried to make It clear to the steam
ship companies and to other responsible
concerns who desire to rent waterfront
property from this department that they
should deal direct through me and not
through an intermediary. In no other
way can 1 prevent 'fixers' from plying
their trade promiscuously or otherwise.
At the time of writing this letter the
Dock Commissioner suggested to the
Mayor that the Commissioner of Ac-
counts be requested to investigate the
reports of "favoritism" and fixing"
The Luckenbach Steamship Company
formerly occupied the pier at the foot
CT Thirty-fifth street, which adjoins the
ons that 1t has now acquired. Their
lease was cancelled by Dock Commits
sioner r. A. C. Smith because OF ale
cations to the effect that the company
was subletting at profit of 500 per
cent. The permit under which they
have obtained the sister pier. accord
ing to Commissioner Hubert, provides
that no more than the legal wharfage
rate of ga cents ton shall be charged
by the company for docking ships OF
other concerns.
