REMOVAL OF CAUSES—CITIZENSHIP.

Under the act of March 3, 1887, an action pending in a state court may be removed by defendant to the federal court, although neither party is a resident of the district. Following Kansas City & T. R. Co. v. Interstate Lumber Co., 37 Fed. Rep. 3.

At Law. On motion to remand.

The plaintiffs in both actions are aliens, and the defendants are residents of the state of Missouri. Both actions were commenced by the service of a summons in the supreme court of New York. Within the 20 days allowed by the law of New York for defendants to answer or plead, they removed the cases into this court. Plaintiffs move to remand.

Rep. 3, (by Judge BREWER,) and Burck v. Taylor, 39 Fed. Rep. 581, (by Judge MAXEY.) The motion to remand is denied. See, also, First Nat. Bank v. Merchants' Bank, 37 Fed. Rep. 657.
