Sioux City. May 29.-The O'Brien
county land cases We're taken up in the
federal court here Tuesday.
large number of cases have been
filed in this court against claimants
who bought lads from the old Sioux
City & st. Paul, now the Omaha, by
those who received government patents
to the land. They dispute possession of
the land. The questions involved in all
of these suits We're brought TO issue by
the suit of Lottie Manley vs.. Andrew
Tow, ct al. Attorney Jewett bringing
demurrer for the defendant.
Upon the decision of Judge o. p.
Shiras in this case may depend the
payment of thousands of dollars by the
Omaha railroad to claimants who
bought land from them and whose title
would thereby be successfully contest
ed by others receiving their title from
the government. The tract of land iE
litigation for many years includes 21,000
acres, and most of this was sold by the
Omaha road, and 1t is also true that
previously taken out in homesteads by
parties receiving government patents.
If the court finds that the settlers who
bought land from the railroad have no
title the railroad expects that these
claimants will be able To recover from
1t a reasonable sum for the land The
decision OF this case may in this way
Cost the Omaha Railroad Company a
half million dollars
The tract of land In litigation is Sit
uated at the intersection of the Omaha
and Milwaukee railroads In O'Brien
county. The United States government
in 1873 granted a patent to the state of
Iowa for 407, 900 acres for its use and
benefit OF building of railroads. The
Sioux City g. ST. Paul, then building,
was to receive a certain amount of land
as each section of ten miles was COM
pleted in the construction of a line from
the southern line of Minnesota to Sioux
City. AT the intersection of these two
railroads long litigation was begun be-
tween the railroads over the land, with
the result that the Omaha did not re-
ceive its title to these 900 acres from
the state. When later the attorney
general recommended that the governor
of Iowa transfer this land to the Oma-
ha road, herefused to do so, remarking
II do not understand that a railroad
from Sioux City to the southern line of
Minnesota is completed when one is
built from the southern line of Minneso-
ia to LeMars.
Later an action to quiet title for the
United States against the railroad COM
pany was carried to the supreme court,
where the railroad company was found
to have no ti.le.
