Matters in District Court.

In the district court yesterday Judge
Wheeler filed a decree favorable to the In
tervenors in the case of ]. ]. Rauer-J. p.
Hess, trustee, substituted plaintiff-against
the heirs of the late Benjamin Douglas,
Louise Douglas, intervenor. In 1897 Ben
jamin Douglas, a wealthy citizen Of Cali
fornia, decided to his seven children each
an undivided equal interest in large tracts
of land in Pottawattamie, Shelby, Harri-
son and Mills counties, subject only to
his life estate in the property. After the
death OF Benjamin Douglas. ]. J. Rauer
brought suit in the district court here ask
ing for a partition Of the land among the
grantees under the deed of 1897. The sale
of the lands vas ordered for the purpose
of making the partition and the sum Of
S147. 404.3O realized. Before distribution of
the money took place, Louise Douglas, wife
of Charles Howard Douglas. one Of the
grantees, filed a petition in Intervention in
the partition proceedings, alleging that her
husband had disposed of the share left 10
him without her concurrence and claiming
a dover interest in the same.
The court found that Louise Douglas, the
intervenor, as the wife OF Charles Howard
Douglas, became vested with an inchoate
right of dover in the undivided one-seventh
of the lands conveyed by Benjamin Douglas
to Charles Howard Douglas and others on
the 18th day of September. 1897.
The court ordered that this dover inter-
est in the one-seventh interest of the pro-
ceeds of the sale of the lands be paid into
the hands of H. w. Binder OF this city, as
trustee, who stands appointed trustee for
that purpose, and that the amount thus
paid to him shall be by MIN safely KEEP
and invested under the orders of the court
during the joint lives of the intervenor,
Louise Douglas, and her husband, Charles
Howard Dougla8. The decree provides tina
in the event of the death of Charles How,
ard Douglas during the lifetime Of Louise
Douglas the money shall be paid to her b,
Trustee Binder, after he shall have re
ceived a specified order of the court to SC
pay IT over. In case Mrs. Douglas die
first the money is to be paid into the hand,
of ]. p. Hess, trustee for the Douglases.
The amount thus placed in the hand4 O.
Trustee Binder is a little over $1,000.
Emma Smith instituted suit in the dis
trict court yesterday against the Grea
Western railroad for 5000, alleging tina
her property in the southeastern part o
the city was damaged to that extent b,
the overflow of water caused by the con
struction of the new line OF the railroa,
company in that vicinity.

DIES MONIES, Ia, June 6.-(Special.)-
First reports on the 1908 assessment of real
and personal property in the state Of Iowa
are encouraging. A systematic effort has
been made by state and county officials to
have the assessments for this year brought
up to something like what the statutes
contemplate. 1t became evident last year
that the assessors were not working in
accordance with the law. but that all kinds
of assessments were too low. The state
executive council has been at work on
various plans to have the assessments in
creased to something near the actual values
as they are known to exist. The first re-
ports from counties on assessments for
his year were received by State Auditor
Carroll today. These abstracts Of assess
ments are what the Board of Review has
before 1t when making the equalization in
July at the time railroad, telegraph and
telephone property is directly assessed.
The four counties reporting today show
that the real estate assessments are much
better than those of two years ago, the
last real estate assessment. The total Of
real estate, not including town lots, for
the four counties is $50, 012, 1873. while two
years ago for the same counties 1t was
$40, 742, 1898, or an increase Of nearly 20 per
cent. The following shows the total in
each of the counties for the two years and
avara0a ner acre in each.

Testing Anti-CompaCt Law.

Before Judge Mcpherson In the federal
court there was commenced today the trial
of the case of the Greenwich Fire Insur-
ance company against b. F. Carroll, aud
itor OF state, to test the constitutionality
OF the Iowa law which forbids combine ;
and compacts among insurance men in the
matter of rates and commissions. When
the new state auditor went into office the
first of the year he that he
would enforce this and all other laws. The
law had never been applied in any effort
TO break up combines existing in Iowa.
The board companies prepared a case and
had It brought in the federal court by non
resident companies TO have the auditor re-
strained from enforcing the law or com
mencing prosecutions under 1t. The case
| follows closely the lines Of the suit under
which Judge Mcpherson declared the Ne
| braska anti-compact law TO be unconsti-
tutionaI and an Interference with the right
Of contract.

pes Moines Factories to Move.

The greatest damage done in Des Moines
the past two weeks was in what was
known as the factory district, which lies
along the railway tracks in West Des
Moines, and near the junction of the Coon
and Des Nome rivers. The large number
Of important factories there were flooded
completely twice within a year. 1t had
been represented to the owners of fac
tories and warehouses in this district that
the Ievees had been built sufficiently high
to prevent any possibility of flooding, but
the rivers broke over everything. Today
a movement was started to have all the
large factories move out OF the district and
establish themselves in a new factory dis
trict on the east side where there will be
no possibility of overflow Of the water.
About thirty of the owners have signed a
call for a meeting Monday evening to con-
slider this matter and there is no doubt that
| the district will be largely deserted by the
| factories as a result of the floods of the
past month. 1t will also result in a con-
siderable r"earrangement Of railroad ter
minals to meet the change in location of
the factories.
