City seeks to estop lode claimants from challenging streets
Butte city answers a suit by Maxime Lelande Samuel Ayotte and Cobban Casey Day Co. to possess streets and alleys in Noyes and Upton additions.

The case covers Third Street, Platinum Street, Maryland and Nevada Avenues plus related rights and a 1901 sewer project. Attorneys J B K Howell, Edwin M Lamb, and H A Bollinger for the city.
