THE PROVISO FOR RE-ENTRY.

ON Tuesday a conference of solicitors and representatives of various building societies throughout the country was held at the Westminster Palace Hotel, the subjects for consideration including the forfeiture clauses of leases and the registration of land. The conference also had before it the proposals contained in the Bills in regard to conveyancing and solicitors' remuneration. Mr. Torrens, M.P., presided, and there were also present Mr. Hopwood, M.P., Q.C., Mr. F. W. Buxton, M.P., Mr. Higham, Mr. Addison, and a number of gentlemen connected with provincial building societies.

The CHAIRMAN, referring to the proposals in Mr. Warton's Bill now before Parliament, said that the rightminded members of the House of Commons approved the principle embodied in that measure. Its object was to enable courts of law to give relief from the operation of forfeiture clauses in leases under which, at times, powers were exercised destructive of the leaseholders' interests. He could not see why the courts should not have this power, which would, no doubt, ease the relations between the leaseholder and the landowner. He was favourably inclined towards Mr. Warton's Bill, which he believed was calculated to meet the difficulties which now existed.

Mr. ADDISON (of the firm of Linklater, Hackwood, Addison, & Brown) moved the following resolution :-"That it is desirable to give power to the High Court of Justice to restrain the enforcement of provisoes of forfeiture which are contained in leases, and that the Bill introduced by Mr. Warton should pass into law during the present session, and should not be delayed during the period which must be required for the consideration of any comprehensive measure dealing with the laws of property."

Mr. J. H. MASON seconded the motion.

A discussion ensued regarding cases of hardship which had arisen through courts of equity refusing to restrain forfeiture of leases under clauses which had been regarded as merely formal. Mr. Stevens urged that the Bill should be referred to a Select Committee, in order that these cases of hardship might be made more generally known. The chairman said that such a course would destroy all chance of passing the Bill this session. A gentleman who described himself as the representative of Liverpool brewers said his clients thought that, the measure would interfere with their publichouse properties, which were held by tenants under forfeiture leases. When the tenants, by their manner of conducting the houses, brought the licences into jeopardy, the brewers would not be able to eject them in a summary manner so as to save the leases. He suggested that the Bill should be amended to meet these

-cases.

Mr. HIGHAM said the Bill would be considered by a committee of gentlemen, and might be amended to meet such cases. After some further conversation, the resolution was carried unanimously.

Mr. LEAROYD (Learoyd & Learovd, solicitors) moved, on the subject of land registration, "That this meeting cordially concurs in the recommendation of the committee of last session on land titles and transfer in favour of the establishment of 'registries of assurances' throughout England and Wales; and, having regard to the special and urgent necessity that exists for giving immediate effect to this recommendation, without waiting for more comprehensive legislation on the subject, expresses its earnest approval of the Bill now before Parliament to improve the constitution, and extend the district of the Middlesex Land Register, and hopes that the Bill may become law during the present session." The mover reminded the meeting that the Dimsdale and other great land frauds had been committed with ease through the absence of any compulsory registration of transactions in land.

Mr. GREEN seconded the motion. In reply to questions, Mr. Learoyd said that the cost of registration, it was thought, should be covered by half a guinea. The resolution was carried. Lord Cairns' Conveyancing Bill and the Solicitors' Remuneration Bill were also discussed, but no resolutions were presented with regard to then.

Solicitors' Cases.

COMMON PLEAS DIVISION. (Before Lord COLERIDGE, C.J., and GROVE, J.) June 23.-In the Matter of W. R. Philp, a Solicitor. This was a matter in which, upon complaint made against the respondent, a master of the court had been directed to hold an inquiry and make a report to the court. The charge against Mr. Philp was that he had misappropriated a cheque for £50, which he had received from one of his clients. The cheque was made payable to order and was indorsed "W. Philp," and the explanation given by him before the master was that he was ill at the time, that his clerk had the management of the office, and that he did not believe the indorsement was his, as he was in the habit of signing his name "William Philp." The master reported that the case was one of grave suspicion.

Murray appeared for the Law Society, and Fryer for the client who had drawn the cheque. On behalf of Mr. Philp no cause was shown.

Lord COLERIDGE, after observing that Mr. Philp or his clerk must certainly have received the proceeds of the cheque, pointed out that the latter had never been called before the master, nor had Mr. Philp taken any steps to prosecute him. Mr. Philp himself had not sworn positively that he never had the money, nor had he sworn that the endorsement was not in his writing. He came to the conclusion, therefore, that Mr. Philp was not a fit person to remain on the rolls of the court. The rule, therefore, would be made absolute that he be struck off.

GROVE, J., concurred.

subject.-His Honour said he did not care for the public, and (to Mr. Joliffe): You public nuisance, be quiet; you are a public nuisance.-Mr. Joliffe replied that he did not care about――. His Honour intimated he would not allow effect to be given to the verdict.-Mr. Joliffe: We will compel it by mandamus. His Honour said the jury were perversely obstinate, and was proceeding when Mr. Joliffe protested against this intimidation of the jury, adding: His Honour had not taken a single note of the case. Where were his Honour's notes ?-The Judge: Be quiet; be quiet!-Mr. Joliffe said he was adopting his present course in order that this matter might be properly ventilated; he intended to see that an improper course was not taken.His Honour: Go and finish your speech in the street; I say the jury have found a verdict contrary to law.-Mr. Joliffe: They have found a verdict not contrary to law.-His Honour : I say it is not according to law or the evidence. I direct the verdict to be entered the other way.-Mr. Joliffe: We will see about that, sir; that only shows the necessity- -That is why the defendant had the prudence to summon a jury. I have no doubt the public will be very much benefited by the jury being summoned here to-day.-The foreman of the jury, on being appealed to by his Honour, said he had given a verdict according to his conscience.-Mr. Joliffe again complained of his Honour's conduct.-The Judge: I wish you would exercise a little common sense.-Mr. Joliffe: I regret that some other persons are not governed by a little common sense.-Thus in great disorder the proceedings terminated, the jury firmly abiding by their verdict.

Legal News.

The Daily News reports the following scene between judge, jury, and advocate at the county court at Bridport. The judge was Mr. Lefroy, and in a case before him £10 was claimed for breach of warranty of a mare which, as his Honour said, could not be got into harness without people standing in danger of having their brains knocked out. The judge held that, the animal being vicious, the plaintiff was entitled to his claim, and directed the jury before whom the case was heard to find a verdict accordingly. But, on the ground that no warranty was given, the jury found for the defendant, whose solicitor, Mr. Joliffe, claimed the verdict, upon which the judge began to expostulate with the jury as to disbelieving respectable witnesses, and said their verdict was directly contrary to their oath.-Mr. Joliffe said this was the most extraordinary course of things he had ever heard in his life, but was told to hold his tongue or he would be removed from the court.-The jury, said his Honour, had no power to find such a verdict.-The jury said they could not alter their verdict; but his Honour said they could.-Mr. Joliffe said the jury thought with him and the public that the verdict was according to law. He dared say the Lord Chancellor would have something to say on the

NORTHERN CIRCUIT.
