Feb. 6. The people of Illinois have been defrauded of land valued at from $250,000.000 to 1500,000,000. Of this 1.S1G acres lie aloiiB the lake shore from South Chicago to Waukegan and 1.0S7 are within the limits of the city of Chicago. The Illinois Central railroad alone has grabbed 400 acres in the city's front yard and he attorney general should sue to recover its value and perhaps revoke the company's cbRrter. The Chicago river has been camped on Illegally from end to end by great corporatlons and business houses These are a few of the conclusions reached by the Chlperfleld committee which was appointed by the Fortysixth general assembly to Investigate submersed lands in the state.

Strong recommendation is made that proceedings be started immediately. Discussion of the Illinois Central includes this: "It is a history which reads like a romance as to how the Illinois Central, starting in with a strip of 2 feet in width from the city limits northward, has continued to grasp and extend until now substantially 400 acres or the tcosl valuable land of the city of Chicago are in Us possession. "When the achievements In this direction of this company are considered it makvs the choicest depredations of Captain Kidd look like an amateur performance."
