Sale of Poor Farm Case Dominates Supreme Court Session

The Pittsburgh Poor Farm dispute Straub vs City of Pittsburgh dominates yesterday's Supreme Court docket with two main issues: whether the city can sell the grounds used as a poor farm and if the sale follows the 1887 act requiring court supervision. Major Moreland argued for the city while Knox & Reed and J. T. Watson represented Mr. Baird, the buyer.
