CURRENT TOPICS. ....... 812 THE EVENT OF THE WEEK, in a legal point of view, has been the reversal by the Court of Appeal of the doctrine of Sykes v. Beadon (27 W. R. 464), that "trusts formed for the purpose of obtaining subscriptions from the public, investing such subscriptions in certain stocks, applying the interest on the investments in payment of coupons, and ultimately dividing the stocks among the subscribers, are illegal under section 4 of the Companies Act, 1862. The Master of the Rolls in the last-mentioned case assumed that the "trust" was a company, association, or partnership within the words of the Act. "The only point," he said, "I have to consider is whether this association or company was formed for the purpose of gain, either by the association or by the individual members thereof." And he further assumed that the "trust" was formed "for the purpose of carrying on any business" within the Act. The ground of these assumptions is to be found in his judgment in the case of Re The Arthur Average Association (23 W. R. 939), where he laid it down that the Act "broadly means this: all commercial undertakings shall be registered. That is the meaning of it as I understand it. It distinguishes in so many words, and intends to distinguish, between commercial undertakings on the one hand, and what one may call literary or charitable associations on the other hand." The Court of Appeal take issue with the learned judge as to both these assumptions. They deny that the trust is an association"; for persons do not constitute an association when there are no mutual rights or obligations, merely because they have a common interest in a fund which is to be divided among them. They also deny that the trust was for the purpose of carrying on any business. If there was any business at all it was to be carried on by the trustees, but the trustees no more carried on business than do the trustees of a large property under a marriage settlement or will, having very extensive powers of changing investments. The grounds taken by the Court of Appeal are precisely those which, when discussing the legality of these trusts six years ago, long before any question had been raised, we stated as the reasons for contending that they did not require registration under the Companies Act. But we pointed out then what we still think constitutes a clear distinction between the trust under a marriage settlement or will and these "trusts"-viz., that in the one case the funds are placed in the hands of the trustees for safe custody only, and in the other "for the acquisition of gain." 66 FOR THE FIRST TIME, as far as we remember, a solicitor was last week punished by the Master of the Rolls for not acting upon a telegraphic notice of an ex parte order restraining a sale under a distress for rent. Telegrams stating that the sale had been restrained were received two hours before the time of sale by the auctioneer and the solicitor acting for the landlady. The auctioneer consulted the landlady and her solicitor, and, as they be THE VACATION REGISTRAR for the first half of the Long lieved that the telegram was fictitious, he proceeded with Vacation will be Mr. Registrar Cobby. WE ARE REQUESTED to call attention to the notice as to affidavits, which will be found in another column. Solicitors will greatly assist the officials by paying attention to the directions therein contained. A GOOD DEAL has been said of the small legislative results of the present session. It may be well to state that up to Monday last, out of 151 public Bills which had been introduced in the House of Commons, 38 had been passed, and of these 13 had received the Royal assent. Thirty-three Bills had been dropped or withdrawn, and of the remaining Bills, over 30 were at or beyond the stage of committee. the sale. The solicitor was ordered to pay the costs of the motion to commit for contempt, on the ground that "it was his plain duty, if he had any doubt as to the authenticity of the telegram, to have telegraphed to the plaintiff's solicitors and asked them whether it was genuine or not." The learned judge, in making this order, appears to have had in his mind the observations of Lord Justice James in Ex parte Langley (L. R. 13 Ch. D. 110), but he seems to have supposed that they applied only to the case of auctioneers and sheriffs' officers. We are at a loss to understand why the remarks should be thus restricted. What the Lord Justice said was that, "when parties who obtain an injunction wish to communicate it by telegram, there is a very obvious mode by which they can prevent difficulties. If the solicitor, instead of telegraphing to the sheriff's officer, were to telegraph to some solicitor as his agent at the place, and |
