Section 5
SEC. 5. In case it shall appear from the pleadings or trom the report of the commissioners, or the court shall otherwise be satisfied of the fact, that the true ownership of the lands sought to be condemned is uncertain and that there are conflicting claims to, and diverse interests in, any parcel of land sought to be condemned, the court, if satisfied that the real owners of the land have been notified and are before the court, shall, upon rendering judgment for condemnation and for payment of the sum or sums fixed by the court as just compensation for the land taken, order such sum or sums to be paid to the clerk of the court for the benefit of the persons who shall ultimately be adjudged entitled thereto. In fixing the sum or sums to be awarded the court shall be governed by the rules laid down in section two hundred and forty-four of Act Numbered One hundred and ninety. Upon the payment by the plaintiff to the defendants of compensation as fixed by the judgment, or after tender to the defendants of the amounts so fixed and payment of the costs, or in case the court shall order the compensation paid into court, the plaintiff shall have the right to appropriate to the public use defined in the judgment the land so condemned. If such payment is made into the court, the clerk of the court shall be responsible upon his bond for the sum so paid and shall be compelled to receive it.
