which have been taken as part of the land
necessary for the Minnesota Il Northwest
ern yards, have filed an appeal in the dis
trict court against the award of damages
hXed by the commissioners to appraise the
condemned grounds. The commissioners
liked the sum of damages caused by the

inadequate and far below the lots actual
value. No objection is made to the regu-
larity OF the proceedings, but the appeal is
taken on questions of both law and fact.
