AROUND THEIR end
Employing Bakers Work a Football
49,. .. Ruse on Strikers.
LATTER WATCHED THE DEPoTs
But the Train stopped in the Sub
urbs and rs st. Louis Bakers
Alighted Unobserved.

It was a cruel bit Of deception which
the big boss bakers of Minneapolis prac-
ticed on their striking employees. - r..
Expecting that the employers would I'M
dertake to import bakers from other cit
les to take the place. of the strikers,
word having already reached here Of at
tempts to employ help in Baltimore and
toned pickets at the different depots to
head off any prospective substitutes aud
induce them not to go to work. d. ISL
When the strikers succeeded yesterday
in persuading three outsiders-two from
Milwaukee and one from Chicago-Who
came in at the union station, to turn and
go the other way, the former believed
their protective measures were succeed
ing admiral bly,. = .-5>5-
But they reckoned without their host.
While the pickets were zealously guard
ing the down town stations of the differ
ent roads, a delegation of twenty-five ST.
Louis bakers stole a march on them.
These bakers left a train at a point in
Southeast Minneapolis, where they were
met by an enthusiastic committee on re-
ception from the boss bakers. Two big
covered carryalls were awaiting the dis
tinguished visitors. Into the vehicles
they were loaded with much pomp and
circumstance and were driven lelsurely
| across town to one of the large bakeries,
where most of them Immediately went to
| work. A few more were apportioned tc
other large bakeries which have managed
to muster an emergency force, and they
are now contentedly taking: the place OF
| the strikers. "'%~@Et g.
| The employers, while they deny al
| knowledge of the ruse resorted to, are
| confident that by continued importations
| on the quiet they will be able to win out
| without additional trouble.

| Brothers, which has declined to recognize

benefits of chapter ll3, g. l.. 1891, dispensing

First-The quo amino a possession of real
property is taken or held furnishes the true
test OF its character. The possession to be
adverse must be shown to have been hostile
IN its inception, or that, having been begun
IN consistency with the rightful title. it's
character has changed; but there must be ad-
equate cause for the change or for inputing
it. When it commenced under acknowledg-
ment Of the right owners estate, the posses
sion will retain Its original quality and will
be- presumed to- be In subservience to the
rightful interest. =. q. -l..~.,.-. :zs,..5sga
Second-Where the relationship Of father
and son exists between the parties it is held,
following O'Boyle Vs., McHugh; So Mimi, 800,
that the possession of the land of the one by
the other is presumed to be permis sive and
not adverse. To make such possession adj
verse there must Re some open assertion .o4
hostile title other than mere possession and
knowledge thereof must be brought home t1
the one who owns the land. This doctrine is
not affected by the fact that the occupant has
paid all taxes for a number of years. has
made valuable inlprov ements and apparently
is exercising complete dominion over the
property.
Third-That the conveyance of the property
by the one to the other was fraudulent as to
a certain creditor OF the granter and wholly
without consideration. has no bearing upon
a claim of title by adv erse possession. Such
a conveyance is valid as between the parties
| thereto, and the heirs of the granter are in
no better position to take advantage of the
want of actual consideration or the fraud
than was their ancestor when living. 81
Fourth-The granter Of real property who
has conveyed the legal title thereto in fraud
of his creditors, remaining in possession him
self, cannot again become the owner and as
sert an adverse and hostile title against lids
grantee based wholly upon a, lapse Of time
In such case the presumption must be that
the granter intends that his possession should
be in subordination to the grantees title
and this presumption remains until there is
brought hcme to the grantee notice OF q
change of this intent by express disclaimer
of the presumed subordinate possession.

that some OF the logs cut and banked each
year would fail to arrive in time for the
annual official scaling, and would come in
during subsequent drives, but also that some
Of them might be lost, stolen or detained and
never reach their destination.
Held: The annual official scale established
prima facie the number Of feet cut per an
mum, and was the proper basis upon which
to estimate compensation. Held: That the
contract provided for annual settlements and
interest upon unpaid balances to be COM
puted from the date fixed in each year for
