Tlio Ju < li ; Makes Known Ills Inter est In Jones' Property. In the district court yc'sicrday ' Judge Walceley delivered decisions fn the following cases : Kobinson vs Jones , and did important case for the adjustment of llgurea of'ii fund held jointly by plaintiff and defendant. This was relative to certain lands as previously held by the court , Jones held in ' .rust for Kobiu- Hon. One eighty-aero tract was sold for $1,000 , of which an entire failure had been to trace to a productive source ; another eighty- acre tract was sold for $ ,000 , and still an other for $12,000 , the receipts for which were deposited in the Omaha National bank. Out of this fund Jones drew $5,000 , with which he purchased two lots , and , as was formerly held , that the Hobinsom money mingled with Jones , a trust would fol low , ami amount draun there from would stand. If that money belonged to Kobinson , it followed that he should take the lots. Whatever tlio expenses and receipts were while Jones hold them , they we.ro to bo figured in. "Thero is much difllculty at this late day in ascertaining just what these were , " said the court , "but the referee's re port is based on Jones' report on the account ing , and so far as wo find thcss facts as to the disposition of the -J 1,000 , is based on the testimony of Jones. I think the report is Justified by this testimony. Wo find that in the summer of 'OS , $ ' , ( ,83" were expended in putting up six houses on the lot , r > , block His , which came from this joint bank fund. The testimony also shows that in 'S3 ' most of this 2-1,000 was checked out Tlio referee also finds that the remainder of the money , $11,000 , for luborand improvements , was furnished by Jones. The latter received 529,000 lor rent , and ex pended for improvements , etc. , f 13SIM ) . Ono ofj thcso buildings was subsequently re moved , which wo ilcem equitable to charge to Jones. Another matter upon which the rofcrco was somewhat limited , based upon the necessity of the case as it stood then , was including all receipts and expenditures , beyond which the referee was noUauthor- izcd to go. This property was controlled fern n period of twenty years by Jones , and it is cquitahlo and right ns a trustee that ho should bo' allowed what is proncr for the care and management of the property. Wo have concluded to allow him at the rate of $230 a year for twenty years , aggregating In all $5,000 , and the report of the referee is confirmed. Then , iiQ3l.fi-l ! is to bo charged to Jones , with in terest from the commencement of the nctlon. For the balance of the fund not traced inter est is to bo charged ; for the $ ! JUOO , which went to a lot , plaintiff is adjudged alien with interest. Mr. Hoblson's long delay in attend ing to his own interests , while it does not de prive him of tils rights , is taken into con sideration. Ha has no equitable right to charge interest on money not traced to some productive disposition. The $11,000 must bo paid within thirty days or the property sold , and lot 5 is to bu conveyed to defendant by u commission , Tlio Ain1)ler CIIKO Dismissed.
