CURRENT TOPICS. IT IS ANTICIPATED that a transfer to Mr. Justice KEKEWICH of a hundred actions from the lists of Mr. Justice KAY, Mr. Justice CHITTY, and Mr. Justice NORTH will shortly take place. MR. PAUL JOHN KING, the senior registrar of the Chancery Division, has resigned his office after a term of forty-six years' public service. Mr. KING was appointed a clerk in the registrar's office by Lord Chancellor LYNDHURST in October, 1841; he succeeded to the post of registrar in the year 1856, and to that of senior registrar in 1885. THE RESIGNATION by Mr. C. M. ROUPELL of the post of official referee places at the disposal of the Lord Chancellor an office worth £1,500 a year. It is to be observed, however, that under section 83 of the Judicature Act, 1873, the number of the official referees to be appointed from time to time is to be determined by the Lord Chancellor with the concurrence of the presidents of the divisions of the High Court and with the sanction of the Treasury. The number of references to the official referees has, during the last three years, kept up to a fairly bigh average, the figures being 108 in 1883-4; 108 in 1884-5; and 94 in 1885-6; so that it does not seem likely that occasion will be taken to reduce the number of these officers to two. The highest number of cases referred to the official referees was in 1880-1, when there were 113. upon the future exercise of the practice in question. con IT WILL BE REMEMBERED that in Re Faulkner (ante, p. 661) Mr. Justice NORTH held that where an auctioneer was employed and paid by the client, a solicitor, although not entitled to the ducting fee," was entitled to be remunerated under Schedule II. for work preliminary to that done by the auctioneer. The rule was laid down by the learned judge in the following terms :"If there is anything done by the solicitor which is not auctioneer's work, and which is necessary towards conducting the sale, he ought to receive payment for it. According to the decisions in cases relating to the fee for deducing title when a solicitor has done part of the work, but not the whole, he is not allowed the scale fee, but he is allowed to charge for the work he has done. It seems to me that these cases are authorities for saying that the same rule must be applied to the fee for conducting a sale when the whole of the work has not been done by the solicitor-viz., when an auctioneer has been employed at the client's expense." Accordingly, in Re Faulkner, the solicitor was held to be entitled to proper charges according to Schedule II. for "attendto insert advertisements in newspapers, examining proofs of particuances on the auctioneer, preparing advertisements of sale, attending lars of sale, attending auction, &c." In Re Peace and Ellis, decided by Mr. Justice NORTH on Wednesday, and reported elsewhere, the solicitors claimed the "conducting fee," although the auctioneer had been paid by the client. This was, of course, disallowed; but the taxing master seems, in spite of Re Faulkner, to have held that the solicitors could only claim the scale fee for contract, deducing title, and completing. Mr. Justice NORTH held that, though they were not entitled to the "conducting fee," they were entitled to be remunerated under Schedule II. for such of the items of work properly done by them as were specified in their bill of costs, and which were not covered by the fee paid to the auctioneer. They could not, however, claim for any items not specified in their bill. The lesson of the case is that where the auctioneer is paid by the client, the solicitor should not claim the conducting fee, but should be careful to claim under Schedule II. for all of the matters specified in Re Faulkner which he has attended to. WE BELIEVE it has been hitherto supposed that an application for the postponement of the hearing of an appeal, not actually in the day's paper, would be granted almost as a matter of course, if made with the consent of all the parties. It appears, however, from the result of such an application to the Court of Appeal No. 2 on Monday that this is not a correct view of the practice. The parties to an appeal which stood third in the list of final appeals for the present sittings, and which was expected to come into the paper on Wednesday, agreed to a postponement of the hearing for three weeks, and applied to the officer of the court to mark the appeal as standing over accordingly. He, finding that the appeal had once been in the paper before the Long Vacation, said that the matter must be mentioned to the court. The application was accordingly made to the court on Monday by counsel, who stated that he had the consent of all the parties, and that the postpone-dealing ment was asked for because the attendance of some witnesses from a distance would probably be required, and also because the solicitor of one of the parties was at present abroad. The court refused the application, and Lord Justice CoTTON said that it was a great mistake to suppose that such an application was a matter of course The court could not allow the parties to settle the paper themselves. If it was desired that a case should not come on in its regular turn, an application must be made to the court, and sufficient reason for the postponement must be shewn. No good reason had been shewn on the present occasion. some SERIOUS QUESTIONS must sooner or later arise both as to whether an appeal lies against a conviction under the Margarine Act (50 & 51 Vict. c. 29) and as to the procedure under which an appeal, if it lies, is to be conducted. The opening sections of the Act impose certain penalties for improperly dealing in margarine, and the 12th section provides that "all proceedings under this Act shall, save as expressly varied by this Act, be the same as prescribed by sections twelve to Sections 12 to 28 of the Act of 1875 contain numerous provisions twenty-eight inclusive of the Sale of Food and Drugs Act, 1875." as to the effect of the certificate of an analyst and otherwise which are clearly applicable to summary proceedings, and also a provision (section 23) that any person convicted of any offence punishable under the Act may appeal to quarter sessions. Is this provision included in the incorporated sections? In strictness it is not one of the proceedings under the Margarine Act, so as to come within the 12th section, but the intention seems to be tolerably plain; and, the 23rd section of the Act of 1875 being numerically included WE VENTURE to think that if the proper construction to be placed on amongst the incorporated sections, we think, on the whole, that the above-mentioned dictum of the Court of Appeal is that it is the a court would be in favour of legally including it, though, on the right of the court to force appellants to come into court, whether they other hard, it must be borne in mind that an appeal never lies at are prepared for a hearing or not, the doctrine is altogether new. common law, so that the burden of proof lies on him who seeks "The court," Lord Justice COTTON said, "cannot allow the parties to establish a right to it. More difficult is the question to settle the paper themselves." But can it be called " settling what procedure is to be followed. The Summary Jurisdiction the paper" when the parties, by mutual agreement, simply Act, 1879, 1879, though it established an uniform procedure prevent an appeal from coming into the paper?
