Judge Smith decided yesterday In the protracted litigation of Charles Colby against the Village of Riverside and William Lange over ninny acres on the Desplalnes River, known as the "Publle Park," and the waterworks plant in block 43, that the title to the Public Park belonged absolutely to Colby, By virtue of a quit-claim deed executed by-Colby to the Village of Riverside, Feb. 8, 1893. he declared the title to the water-works pronerty to be in the name of the village, Colby by this decree recovers real estate worth $225,000. The ault grew out of the seizure of the lands by the village of Riverside several years ago for public purposes. Tbe Publio Park tract had been foreclosed In the chancery proceedings of Ell S.

Prescott against Emery E. Chllds and the Riverside Improvement Company, the land having been deeded to David H. Hills, as trustee, to secure a $30,000 note given by -Child, and default' in the payment of interest having been made. At a public sale March 1. 1880, Walter L.

Peck purchased the land for Peck deeded ft to Edward H. Abbott, of Milwaukee, who In turn deeded it to Colby. Tbe waterworks property was foreclosed on what was known as the "Jewett trust deed." given by the Chicago Great Western Railroad Company to secure an issue of bonds for the construction of the water-Works. The foreclosure was ordered July 16, 1883. and Cbarles L.

Billings having bought the property conveyed it to Colby on April 9, 1892. Colby filed his original petition for possession of the lands on Oct. 28. 181x3, under the burnt record act. An attempt at compromise was made.

Colby agreeing to quit claim the waterworks property if tbe village would give him the park. A change in the village board defeated this at that time, but lately tbe attorney for the village consented to this proposition and the settlement by the court was materially aided. The assignment of tbe E. T. Harris Company in the County Court was followed yesterday by the assignment 01 its president, tnjan t.

Harris, to Mark T. Leonard. Mr. Harris had in dorsed the company's paper and the Home Na tional BanK, noiaing tw.uuu. was inreateuing to sue him personally.

The personal estate of E. T. Harris Is worth $125,000 and Is Incumbered for about $40,000. Judge Scales yesterday au thorized Walter Hill, the assignee, to continue the business. Judge Dunne yesterday heard argument on the petition asking that Moy Ah Kee be natural- lied, irst papers were issuea to nim ny juage Duero.

of the Superior Court of New York. Aug. 31. 1880. Tbe attorney set forth that the nrsl papers 01 ciiizensntp naving oeen issuea to Moy Ah Kee in 1880, two years before the Chinese restriction law went into effect, that law had no effect upon him.

Judge Dunne took the matter under advisement. Judge Sears has issued an Injunction at tbe re- auest of John M. Van Nest to restrain the Chi cago branch of the Michigan Buggy Company from prosecuting attachment suits against the complainant, who also wants an accounting. He as formerly manager of the company, which wants to recover $1,500 from him on promissory notes. He says under nis direction tne sales ot the company for 1890 were $150,000 and that they had a contract with him for 1891, but discharged him in March witbout cause.

J. McGregor Adams, president of the Adams tt Westlake Company, has brought suit against Adolph Freinberg and Gustav R. Relman for $12,000 damages. In 18D1 and 1893 Adams owned maiority of the stock of the Chicago Nickel Works, and frequently Indorsed their peier. Weinberg and Reimsn, who were his financial agents, presented the paper when his indorsement was needed.

7.0241 Klba Aug. Sept. 7.45 7.45 7. 324 7.124 Jan There was not much headway made in the wheat market in either, direction. There was little effort to make a bull market, and although the pressure waa chiefly on the selling side there was little break In prices.

With lower cables, with enormous local receipts, with corn dull and lower, and Partridge selling freely, there was a loss in price up to 1 o'clock of but 40 from the closing the day previous. This indi cated anything but demoralized trade, or natural weakness in the market. Perhaps the most Important change in favor of buyers was in the cutting down of the primary receipts by about 200,000 bu for the day. The total at all Western markets was 746,000 bu. At Toledo there was a marked change In the movement, with receipts down to 91.000 bu.

while shipments were much larger at over 200.000 do. The local receipts were 614 cars. This was so much over tbe large estimate ot the day before that it caused considerable selling pressure Just at the opening. English cables at the same hour were Hd lower. Three steamers arrived from Toledo with 20,000 bu wheat.

This and the heavy run of cars revived the talk of an increase of probably Z.000.000 bu in stocks here for the week. Northwestern markets had 159 cars, which was over the receipts of last year. Export clearances of wheat and hour reached only 320.000 bu. New York was weak early, but turned strong and became a buyer In this market. Uifford covered a line of wheat for either New York or St, Louis people.

Tbe trade thought it had dis covered that 266 cars out of the posted were simply transferred from one set ot elevators to another, and that legitimate reoeipts for the day were but 666 cars, or 194 cars under the esti mate, mis created a nrmer leeting ana improved buying for time Later it was found that "special" on tbe inspection sheet included the Eastern and Southeastern roads that do not regularly bring in wheat. Each day brings reports from- fresh territories East and West where wheat la being substituted extensively for corn in stock feeding. It is lelieved that the short Interest in the market will cover oa the first sign of strength, and this prevent, further short selling. September started with a down turn to 644c rallied to and on a second decline went to 649.C. 4c under Thursday.

December sold at holding at 67- a New York failed to report any export business beyond 12 boat loada at Baltimore. Tbe estimated receipts for today were very heavy at cars, and In sympathy with a sharp drop in the price ot corn Just at tbe close, wheat sold off to 54c September and 67c December, closing at September and 674c December, or He loss for the day. Local traders are puzzled over tbe action of the corn market. The local sentiment Is quite bearish, the routine news for the Friday ses sion was bearish, and yet it took persistent hammering for the entire day to get prices off from to 14c The chief trouble appears to be that the local people cannot find out what the country Is going to do about it. It is conceded that the condition of the crop has been little if any improved cf late.

It is also believed that there is a serious shortage which no amount of economizing or wheat feeding can make good. About a week ago houses advised their country customers who had not taken roots at tne top to bold on and buy more corn on a break to 60c for May. The country appears to be following advice. very generally. There are few outside orders of any kind, and it la believed good buying will not be renewed until the market gets to about the price named.

In the meantime the local houses are working prices lower, but fearing all the time to get caught short by the country. Tbe market started weak on a drop to 644c September, and May, with a sharp rally to 64 and 62 From these prices there was a slow decline most of the session, with a little slump just before the close, which put prices down to 63Hc September, and 6S0 May. The September rallied to at the close, with no rally for May. Liverpool waa firm and Hd op on corn. Chicago shipments were 100,000 bu over receipts; export clearances were better at 60.000 bu: ves sel room was taken for 125.000 bu here.

and Prime was out with a very bullish estimate on Ne braska. On tbe other hand tbe cars for the day reached 194, and the estimate for today was 270 ears. This corn comes principally from Indiana and Illinois, where there Is a fair prospect for the new crop. Regardless of everything else the trade must depend on tbe action of the country in masing prices in we near luiure. Oats weakened He to 4c and closed at the Dottom alter a lair business.

September sold between 30c and SOfic. and closed at 30c May at USe to 354c. and closed at 34c The good re ceipts. 290 cars, with 312 cars today and the weakness in other grains, combined with the fair realizing, caused the decline. There wa.

The Minneapolis Market Rtennl estimates the winter wbeat crop at 826,090,000 bu and tbe spring wheat at 170,000,000 bu. William Dunn had a cable by way of Montreal which contradicts Abel Key's cable of Thursday. It read: "Crop prospects have been changed by rains, and tbe crop will be short." A grain dealer at Centralia, writes that between that point and Atchison, which is sixty-five miles, there will not be over 25 per cent of a corn crop, where a good rain ten days ago would have made half a crop. The steamer Majestic has unloaded her cargo of 86,914 bu No. red from Toledo, and the steamer.

J. W. Moore and Livingston are here with 20,000 bu each from Toledo and were unloading at Armour's elevators on the North Side. Puff, Slaughter A Co. is the style of an Incorporated firm, with S5O.00O capital, that is to move its grain commission business from St.

Louis to Chicago. The firm is composed of Frederick Puff, H. B. Slaughter, and Conrad Falh. They are well known in the trade, having been closely identified with it for years.

There were numerous reports about aales of cash wheat here. Harper sold 65.009 bu No. spring. It is said, and Armour K0.000 bu. but Armour's men denied that they had made sales of round low st the close.

The only sale ot a round lot actually reported was 6,000 buNo. 2 hard spring at 1c over September. The government report for August gives the condition ot pastures at 66, against 83 1 on July 1 and 92 on June 1. The condition on Aug. in the territory tributary to the Chicago market, shows the poorest, the lowest being reported in Iowa, where tbe condition was estimated at 26 per cent, next is South Dakota at 38.

then Nebraska at 43. and Wisconsin and Minnesota, both of which are reported at 44, followed by Illinois with a condition ot 65. In the East. New Jersey shows the lowest condition, which is estimated at 63, next comes Connecticut at 62, and then Pennsylvan'a with 69. New York averages rather light at 90.

Wheat bulls derived considerable encouragement from the fancied discovery that 244 cars eutot the (KM cars of No. 2 red wheat received were on "through and special track." They thought that this wbeat came from private elevators This, however, is not the case, as it arrived on the Eastern and Southeastern roads, the Baltimore and Ohio, Fort Wayne, Lake Shore, Erie. Monon, and the Panhandle, that run through Ohio and Indiana, and which bring comparatively little grain except at this season. The inspection department have no regular sheet to specify the business of these roads, and they were all put on as "through and special billed." Tbe Panhandle haa 174 cars on Thursday, and on yesterday 115 cars, while the Monon had 126 cars.

UUU Total. 1,892.000.000 1,942,400.000 The later returns concerning wheat confirm previous indications of large yields, and this condition is not confined to winter grain, but is reported from many districts In the Northwest. Tbe States of Minnesota, North Dakota, and South Dakota are made to promise about 70,000.000 bu by tbe government figures, com- Kred with 77.000.000 bu last year, the latter ing manifestly fully 30.000.000 bu less than tbe actual production. A like difference this season would imply 100,000.000 bu for these States, which is accepted as probable by well-informed persons, and estimates go as high as 126.000.000 bu.

If these States should Justify expectations of 100.000.000 bu the total spring wbest crop may be counted at not less than 140.000.000 bu. while tbe winter wbeat is likely to equal or exceed 340.000.- 000 bu. Current advices refer with frequency to tbe increasing disposition to use wbeat in feeding operations, and to restrict the marketing of this grain. It is naturally to be expected that the alarm concerning the shortness of tbe corn crop ana tne severe aenciency wnern sunpues are ordinarily large will lead to unusual economies in reference to feeding material Cincinnati met urrtnl.
