Description
Application by the State of Wisconsin on the relation of Wisconsin Department of Agriculture for leave to commence an original action in this court for the purpose of obtaining an alternative writ of mandamus to compel the Honorable Chas. L. Aarons, circuit Judge, to appoint appraisers to award damages for property sought to be taken by the Wisconsin Department of Agriculture from the Chicago, Milwaukee, St. Paul & Pacific Railroad Co. for state park purposes in condemnation proceedings. Petition for the appointment of commissioners under ch. 32, Stats., was filed with the Honorable Chas. L. Aarons, circuit Judge, on July 10, 1945. After hearing thereon the petition was dismissed. The State of Wisconsin owns a parcel of land of approximately one hundred and thirty-five acres immediately south of lands owned by the Chicago, Milwaukee, St. Paul & Pacific Railroad Company, hereinafter referred to as 'railroad company,' which has been used for many years as the site of the annual Wisconsin State Fair, and in May, 1945, it acquired a tract of land consisting of about sixty-three acres immediately to the north of land owned by the said railroad company. All of the above land now owned by the state is under the control of the State Department of Agriculture, which now seeks to acquire, by condemnation, lands owned by the railroad company, comprising approximately eighteen and one-half acres lying between the two parcels now owned by the state, conditioned that the railroad company have an easement for its main track right of way across the north one hundred feet thereof. The tract sought to be acquired is two thousand six hundred and forty-five feet from east to west, four hundred and eleven feet wide at the westerly end, and two hundred and thirty-two feet at the easterly end. Henry A. Scandrett, Walter J. Cummings, and George I. Haight, trustees of the property of the railroad company, filed an answer in its behalf. After a hearing pursuant to sec. 32.05, Stats., where witnesses were sworn and testified, the circuit Judge made and filed findings of fact and Conclusions of law, and entered an order dismissing the petition.
