When Frederick Krolie, who camo to

awn, 111., died In ISSt. ho loft the couth
half of the block on the west side of Thir
teenth street, between l'arnam nnd Har
ney street s, to five heirs.
Mrs. Itoslna T. Kchneldcr, daughter of
Mr. Krolie, and one of tho original heirs,
has been compelled to conic Into district
court to defend hor tltlo to one Inch of
her twenty-flvc-foot lot. Judge Ken
nedy decided for her, the defendant. Mrs.
'Schneider's title was fortified by a hilck
wall resting on the Inch of ground In
dispute, which had stood there since. 18S5.
Had tho Judge decided differently It
might have been necessary to have sold
the tiny estate, as tho proceeding was a
partition suit.
Sirs. Schneider was bioiight as si de
fhdant Into a suit In which Loiilr
Upohmo Is prosecuting against Otto A.
ndfhmc and Klva O. Hoohnic to
Straighten up their titles to the lots south
of Mrs. Schneider's property. Tho
Boehmcs are grandchildren of Frederick
Krone.
The bulldlns, whoso wall was alleged
to overlay one Inch of tho plaintiff's
lot, was erected b'y Mrs. Schneider In
JUST.. It Is directly south of tho lot whero
the Dewey hotel formerly stood. Tho
lower part now Is occupied by tlw Ohio
restaurant.
Thij "Judge, the lawyers nnd the wit
nesses devoted hours of grave considera
tion to the question as to whom belonged
th Inch of ground. Judge Kennedy's de
cision quiets tltlo to It In Mrs. Hchnelder
nnd the brick wall will be allowed to
stand undisturbed.
