The city last week won a victory in a suit against Hopper S. Mott to recover possession of about 300 feet water frontage, at fche foot of 54fch street, Korth River. The defendant, Mr. Mott, based his claim to the land on an ancient Dutch grant, aud on twenty years undisturbed pos¬ session. The city maintained tbat they owned the land uuder the aucient charters, and produced evidence to show tbat Jordan Mott, the prede¬ cessor of the defeudaot, was of the same opinion inasmuch as he had made applicaliou to the Sinking Fund Commissioners for a grant of land under water. It was upou this point that Judge Van Brunt decided the suit io favor of the citv. The injunctions restraining the city from pro¬ ceeding with the improvements projected at this point will by this decision be removed. Eugene S. Ives, Jos, Ulman and Richard Deeves have been appointed Commissioners by Judge O'Brieu to condemn St. John's Cemetery, on the west side, for pubUc park purposes.
