Opinion
The ordinance of the city of Hannibal provides for wharfage, at rates to be determined by tonnage, for every landing of a steamboat, etc., and by the time the steamboat continues at the landing. The remarks made in the suit against the city of St. Louis cover this case. There is a doubtful provision in the ordinance, perhaps, concerning the anchoring at the landing for barges, etc., but no question in this case-arises under that provision.
