"Not to be officially published."

Proceeding by the Prairie Pipe Line Company against Benjamin Shipp and others to condemn land. Judgment for defendants, and plaintiff appeals. Case transferred to the Supreme Court.

T. J. Flannelly, of Independence, Kan., Major J. Lilly, of Moberly, and S. J. & G. C. Jones, of Carrollton, for appellant.

PER CURIAM.

This is a proceeding under section 1791, R. S. 1919, to condemn, for oil pipe line purposes, certain lands belonging to defendants. Under the ruling in Moberly v. Lotter, 266 Mo. 457, 464, 188 S. W. 991, it involves title to real estate and therefore jurisdiction to hear the appeal is in the Supreme Court.

The case is accordingly ordered transferred to that court.
