<p>SYLLABUS BY THE COURT.</p> <p>1. Appeal — From, Probate Court — Jurisdiction of District Court. In this proceeding, on appeal from the probate court the district court had no jurisdiction to determine the disputed rights of property, but had jurisdiction simply to find the fact of whether the appellees had concealed, embezzled or conveyed away any of the property or money belonging to the estate, and to make and enforce proper orders for the preservation thereof.</p> <p>2. —1-Effect of Judgment. A judgment in sueh action, general in form, finding in favor of the defendants therein is not a determination of rights of property, but simply amounts to a finding that such defendants are not guilty of doing the things complained of.</p>
