Quiet title suit over Turner hall property continues in circuit court
The case of Martin Farnam against the Social turnverein to quiet titles to the old Turner hall property was continued Thursday due to family illness of Attorney McCullough. The suit stems from the long dispute between the Indianapolis and Social turnverein groups over incorporation and property rights. The two societies once merged then split, with the Social turnverein asserting rights to all assets and the Indianapolis Social turnverein reorganizing as the Socialturnverein of Indianapolis. The court must decide the legality of the latter society and its claim to the property.

City seeks orders for street paving between railroad tracks
City engineer Jeup asks City Attorney Curtis for guidance on compelling the Citizens' street railroad to improve the space between its tracks. He plans to start with Massachusetts Avenue where bowlders are sunken and filled with debris, and may issue notices if the attorney's opinion is favorable. The Board of Works earlier sought such guidance, and the street car company has shown willingness to adjust tracks to match grade, delaying some work until asphalt work can proceed. The city contends the company’s franchise remains while lawsuits proceed, and can require improvements to the street between tracks.
