Description

Messrs. I. Cook and B. R. Curtis, for the title under the Cedar Rapids Railroad Company; Mr. T. F. Withrow, contra, for that under the Des Moines Company. The foundations of the title on each side of this controversy rest on acts of Congress, and the decision of the cases requires their construction. The cases are identical, except that as the holder of each of the conflicting titles becomes plaintiff in turn, he is thrown upon the strength of his own title, rather than the weakness of the opposing one.
