Curlee and the firm of Boyle Priest.

The heirs lost the suit. The trust fund is now administered by the city to travelers and ethers. In denying the taction for fees and expenses.

Judge Pearcy said: "I do not believe the attorneys for th plaintiffs are entitled to fees and expenses because, in the first place, they instigated the litigation; secondly, the litigation was opposed to the purpose of the trust and it is not simply a question of construction of some ambiguity in the trust; thirdly, even if it were simply a question ol construction of the terms of the trust, the plaintiffs are not the necessary parties to such construction; and. fourthly, it is not believed these principals are not out of harmony with the case relied on by the plaintiffs in this suit, to wit, St. Louis vs. McAllister." The last mentioned suit was brought by the city against the then attorney-general of Missouri for interpretation of the terms of the trust. ti A FAMILY GIFT!
