was a report, apparently authentic,
to the effect that the owners were
considering the propriety of placing
the Plein dredge, now idle on Otter
creek, on this piopertv. The Plein
dredge lias been idle for several
years, in fact since the company
went practically on the rocks, due
to the high costs of operation of

by the apparent desire to maintain

The case of Mueller versus C>oggin
is still being heard in the District
Court and the defense is now putt
ing in its testimony. Expert esti
mony from Dan Jones and Irving
J. Heed was placed before the jury
yesterday. The cace is one diffi
cult to follow for a layman owing
to the highly technical survey
questions which are involved and
which are by no means simplified
by the fact that the original monu
ment to which the city plat, was tied,
according fo testimony, mineral mo
nument No. 1 having been washed
out in the storm of 1913. It is
presumed that this case will not last
very much longer before reaching
the jury.
