man.

This was a motion on behalf of the plaintiff, Mr. Daniel Bailey, of 18, Grove-road, Eastbourne, that the defendants, Mr. J. A. Skinner and Messrs. Fleming, Reid, & Co., of Eastbourne, and each of them might be restrained until the trial of the action or further order from using or permitting or suffering to be used certain premises, 22, Grove-road, Eastbourne, for the trade or business of a general draper in breach of covenants by the defendant J. A. Skinner contained in certain indentures of lease dated respectively the 30th of November, 1894, and the 23rd of September, 1896. It was said that the plaintiff was the lessee of and occupied the shops and premises known as 16, 18, and 20, Grove-road, Eastbourne, under leases from the defendant James Skinner, dated the 30th of November, 1894, and the 23rd of September, 1896. Such leases were both made between the defendant Skinner and one Albert G. SharThe lease of the 30th of November, 1894, contained the following covenant: "And the lessor doth hereby further covenant with the lessee that he, the lessor, will not during the term hereby granted demise or lease any of the shops and premises 16 to 36, Grove-road aforesaid, or permit or suffer the same to be used as or for the trade or business of a general draper." The lease of the 23rd of September, 1896, contained the following covenant : "And the lessor doth hereby further covenant with the lessee that he, the lessor, will not during the term hereby granted demise or lease any of the shops and premises Nos. 22 to 36, Grove-road aforesaid, or permit or suffer the same to be used as or for the trade or business of a general draper. indenture dated the 28th of September, 1896, and made between Albert George Sharman and the plaintiff, the leases (including the benefit of the covenants) were assigned to the plaintiff, and for the leases and good will and stock-in-trade of the business carried on by Sharman the plaintiff gave £8,000 or thereabouts. About the 25th of May, 1898, the plaintiff heard a rumour that Messrs. Baddeley & Hewer (who were tenants under the defendant Skinner of the premises 22, Grove-road) proposed subletting the premises to the defendants Fleming, Reid, & Co., and the plaintiff instructed his solicitor to give notice to Mr Skinner and to Messrs. Baddeley & Hewer that such demise would be a breach of the covenants. Notwithstanding this, the defendant Skinner let the shop and

CHANNELL, J., in giving judgment, said: I am of opinion that, after the decision in Stuart v. Diplock, I ought not to grant an interlocutory injunction and thereby stop the defendants' business. Speaking, for myself, I entertain no doubt that the plaintiff is entitled to make this complaint and that the defendants are bound by the covenants. I was somewhat surprised to find that a question of this nature was treated with doubt in Stuart v. Diplock. I do not say that one party could sue the other at common law, but I think the plaintiff is entitled to have the covenant enforced by injunction in analogy to the cases in which injunctions have been granted where there is a building scheme. But it is not necessary to decide that question in the present case. I think that the for the purpose of carrying on the business of a general draper. It is defendant Skinner covenanted not to grant leases of the other premises quite clear that the defendant company is carrying on a busiuess almost all of which can be carried on by a general draper. But that is because the business of a general draper is of a general nature. There may be some things in the defendant company's catalogue which one would not expect to find in that of a general draper. The present case is distinguishable from Stuart V. Diplock. That case was one of overlapping. The defendant that case sold things that the plaintiff did not sell. In the present case nearly all the things sold by the defendant company are sold by the plaintiff. But I do not think that the defendant company can be said to carry on the business of a general draper. They carry on part of the business. Stuart v. Diplock seems to shew that to carry on a part is not to carry on the business. The only point that has caused a difficulty in my mind is that on p. 67 of the defendant company's catalogue I find such articles mentioned as flannelettes, flannels, skirtings, dress materials, and serges; and sateens, velveteens, and blouse materials are priced at so much a yard. It seems to me that selling those materials by the yard comes very near to carrying on the business of a draper. A hosier sells articles ready for wear, a draper the materials from which the articles are made. The fact that the defendant company has included on p. 67 of their catalogue articles sold by the yard gave me some doubt, but on the whole I do not think it right to put an end to their business now by interlocutory injunction. I do not think the case is absolutely clear, and I do not think such a breach is made out as justifies me in granting an interlocutory injunction. There will be no order except that the costs be costs in the action.-COUNSEL, Alexander, Q.C. (J. L. Whitaker with him); Douglas; G. Cave. SOLICITORS, F. D. W. Hatton, for F.

Liverpool. In Bankruptcy. 28th Sept.

EFFECT OF DISSOLUTION OF LIMITED COMPANY-BONA VACANTIA. Messrs. Higginson & Deane became bankrupt in 1847, and among the creditors whose proofs were admitted were Littledale & Co. for £69 000 and the Royal Bank of Liverpool for about £550,000. The Royal Bank was established under certain deeds of settlement, and was subsequently registered under the Companies Acts; it was in and after 1867 wound up, Various dividends first voluntarily and subsequently under supervision. were paid in the bankruptcy. An order of dissolution was applied for in the winding-up of the banking company and was made by North, J., on the 29th of October, 1887, dissolving the company as from the 26th of December, 1887. In the present year fresh assets of the bankrupts appeared in the shape of some North-Eastern Railway Consolidated Stock, which had been originally, in its then form of shares in the Leeds and Thirsk Railway, regarded as worthless, but in 1898 were with interest worth £5,500. Littledale & Co. then applied to the court to expunge the proof of the Royal Bank without prejudice to dividends already declared, on the ground that the bank had ceased to exist. The Treasury gave notice of opposition on the ground that upon the dissolution of the Royal Bank the right to all further dividends which would have been payable to the bank or the liquidator thereof vested in and belonged to the Crown as bona An affidavit was filed in support of the Crown's claim by the late liquidator of the Royal Bank, stating the above contention and that the Crown made the claim at the instance of the contributories or other persons interested or claiming to be interested in the assets of the bank. Counsel for the applicants cited Re London and Caledonian Co. (Limited) (11 C. D. 140) and Coxon v. Gorst (1891, 2 Ch. 73) in support of the contention that the Royal Bank was extinguished for all purposes; the debt from the bankrupts was extinguished on

TRUSTEE-VESTING ORDER-STOCK--TRUSTEE NOT ABLE TO BE FOUND-
EVIDENCE-TRUSTEE ACT, 1893 (56 & 57 VICT. c. 53), s. 35.

Counsel for the Treasury opposed the application, on the ground that where an individual died intestate without next-of-kin the Crown was entitled to his property, and that there was no difference between a corporation and an individual. He cited Grant on Corporations at p. 304 as laying it down that "all the personal estate of a dissolved corporation seems to vest in the Crown as bona vacantia." This debt was part of the personal estate of the bank. Further, there was no jurisdiction to expunge a proof, unless it was bad ab initio. The asset which had recently come in was the property of the corporation at the time of its dissolution. He cited Cunnack v. Edwards (1896, 2 Ch. 679).

HIS HONOUR JUDGE COLLIER held that the bank, having absolutely ceased to exist for all purposes, could no longer be held to be entitled in any form tɔ a share in the assets of the bankrupts; and that on the dissolution of the company the debt due to it was extinguished so as to be incapable of subsequent ownership, and that, therefore, there was no moment of time when it was without an owner.

This was a petition by Frederick Varey and Joshua Perkin praying that the right to call for a transfer of, and to transfer, forty shares in Rylands & Sons (Limited), numbered respectively 57,133-57,134, and from 83,314 to 83,351, both inclusive, and now standing in the names of William Varey and the petitioners in the books of the company as executors and trustees of the will of William Henry Varey, deceased, and to receive any dividends now due, might vest in the petitioners as trustees of the will, and that the right to call for a transfer of, and to transfer, £912 North-Eastern Railway Consols now standing in the names of the said William Varey and the petitioners, and to receive any dividends due and to accrue due on the consols might vest in the petitioners, and that the petitioners might transfer the consols into their own names to be held by them upon the trusts of the will. In support of the motion it was said that the application was made under section 35 of the Trustee Act, 1893 (56 & 57 Vict. c. 53). The ground of the application was that of the three executors and trustees one could not be found. The facts were as fol-estate.--CoOUNSEL, Leslie Scott; Horace Avory; Stewart Brown; Oulton. lows: The testator, William Henry Varey, duly made and executed his last will and testament, dated the 29th of April, 1896, by which he appointed his sons, William Varey and Frederick Varey, and his son-inlaw, Joshua Perkin, to be executors and trustees of his will. The testator died on the 7th of July, 1896, without having revoked or altered his will, which was proved in the District Registry at Wakefield of the Probate Division of the High Court of Justice on the 14th of September, 1896, by all three executors named therein. William Varey, one of the sons of the testator and one of the executors and trustees named in the will, and by whom the will was duly proved, towards the end of the month of September, 1897, or about the beginning of the month of October in the same year, left the city of Leeds, where he had been residing, having previously sold his business of a draper which he carried on there, and all his household furniture and effects in his residence in Leeds. He never communicated to his co-trustees his intention of leaving the city of Leeds. Since the month of October he had not been seen nor had any communication been received from him whatever, nor did any knowledge as to his whereabouts exist. Various letters had been written and sent to and inquiries made by prepaid post at his residence and place of business, Roundhay-road, Leeds, and elsewhere, but it had not been possible to ascertain where he had gone. On the 23rd of August, 1897, the following advertisement was inserted in the London Daily Telegraph newspaper and also in the two principal Leeds newspapers-namely, the Yorkshire Post and Leeds Mercury: "Re William Henry Varey, deceased. Will William Varey be good enough to communicate with Messrs. Emsley, Son, & Smith, solicitors, 17, East-parade, Leeds "; but no communication had been received from him. By the Trustee Act, 1893, s. 35: “(1) In any of the following cases, namely: (ii.) When a trustee entitled alone or jointly with another person to stock or to a chose in action (c) cannot be found the High Court may make an order vesting the right to transfer or call for a transfer of stock, or to receive the dividends or income thereof in any such person as the court may appoint.' CHANNELL, J.-I think that the evidence that the third executor and trustee cannot now be found is sufficient. There will be a vesting order in the terms of the prayer, and the costs will be payable out of the estate. -COUNSEL, S. G. Lushington. SOLICITORS, Pitman & Sons, for Emsley, Son, & Smith, Leeds.

At the conclusion of the recent sittings at the Central Criminal Court, Mr. Justice Darling said the last case tried, though small in itself, was somewhat historic, because it was the last case tried at the Old Bailey in which the prisoner who might desire it would not have the opportunity of going into the witness-box and saying what really were the circumstances of the case. The next time the sessions were held at the Old Bailey there would be in operation the Act of Parliament which was recently passed by which any prisoner could go into the witness-box. This case therefore marked a period in the evolution of the law.

He was about sixty-two years of age, and was one of the few ushers left who were employed in the old Law Courts at Westminster.

When the juror comes to the aid of justice, says the Globe, men hear strange things sometimes. In a case of a man who had been accidentally drowned, a witness had expressed his wonder "that they didn't use a pump to him." This did not satisfy the scientific mind of a juror, who opined that "they ought to have given him an epidemic." Here another "You means a hemmetic," he said. And the court juror interposed. left it at a 66 hemmetic." So now doctors know what to do when a man is apparently drowned. Messrs. Blunt & Co., of 95, Gresham-street, London, writing to the Times with regard to the Employers' Liability Act, 1898, say: "The Act says 'Payment shall in case of death be made to the legal personal representative of the workman'-i.e., his executor or, in the absence of a will, his administrator. It adds, Or if he has no legal personal representative, to or for the benefit of his dependants.' But employers can hardly be expected to embark on the inquiries and risks which this loosely-expressed alternative involves, and we as solicitors have felt bound to advise that in all cases of fatal accident administration should be required to be taken out. It can be done by personal application to the local Inland Revenue officer at a cost of only 15s. for fees and expenses.

The Select Committee on Election Petitions (whose report is just issued) recommend, according to the Westminster Gazette, that instead of three judges being placed on the rota to try election petitions each year six judges should be placed on the rota for three years, two retiring each year. In this way greater continuity of practice would be secured. subordinate procedure in elections should also, it is suggested, be conducted before some prescribed officer to whom the work should be permanently allotted. The committee consider the position of the Public Prosecutor at present unsatisfactory. He should be entitled to intervene as a party whenever the petition is likely to be affected or endangered and should have power to continue a petition which would otherwise fail should he deem it requisite in the interests of justice. The committee considers that the relief now obtainable in cases of trifling illegality should be extended to all cases where illegal practices are committed without the cognizance of the candidate or his election agent. In conclusion the advantage is pointed out of a codification of the various statutes relating to Parliamentary elections and corrupt practices and election petitions.
