(Laws of 1879, p. 77.) After rendition of the judgment the legislature passed the act of May 10, 1901, repealing said act of 1879, and making it \u2019discretionary with the trustees whether or not to pass the ordinance making the disconnection, and providing that the new act \u201cshall apply to and affect all cases where property has not been disconnected by such city council or trustees of such village, whether application has been made for such disconnection or not.\u201d Said last named act is applicable to the case at bar, which is on all-fours with Vance v. Rankin, 194 Ill. 625, and subsequent cases following that decision. The rule laid down must control the decision of this case. By the very terms of the statute it is made applicable to cases of this character, where the disconnection had not taken place when the act became a law.\nThe judgments of the Appellate and circuit courts must be reversed. Each party will pay his own costs in this court.\nJudgment reversed.",
