The Subject of = Trust, Appeal Bonds, and & Question of Laches, Recorit of Business Done in the Chlcago Courts Saturday. Judgments and Now Suits—Bankruptoy Oases—Secking Divorace, Complaints Made in New York of o Snwilnlly of Judges, SUPREME COURT. WHAT MAY D2 THE BUDJECT OF A TRUST. In the case of C, 11, Taylor vs. Danfel W, Tur- ser, just decided by the Supreme Court, the question was ralsed aa to whether a trust could be enforeed o regard to personal property.. It spoearcd that in October, 1873, one R. 8. T'rot- ter bought ten car-loads of wheat of the appel- lee, D. 8, Turner, and shipped it to C. H. Tay- lor, a commission-merchant here. At thesame time two drafts were drawn on Toylor and given to Tarner, whoeent them on for collection, with tho bills of lading attached. .Taylor, how- cver, refuecd to accept the drafts or rurrender * the grain, excent two car-loads, The remainder he kept to dischargo a large indcbiedness due him from Trotter, the perron wio had bought the graln for him. Tarner then filed a bill to declare aud enforco o resultiug trust in Uls favor. ‘The Burrcma Court sald the two questions were whether sucha trust conld be sustained, and whether Taylor's rights wero to be enforc. ed at Iaw or in chancery, They held that all P rty of a valuable nnlure—enr{llllnu that might be lcgally transferred or disposed of; such s choses In_detion and possibilitics of every description—might be made the subject- matter of a trust. That waa tha caso with ro- spect to cxpress trusts, and it was difli- cult to sce why not as well ‘Fpl, to trists resulting by [mplleation of law, as resulling trusts, But £ appellant were rt‘{mnled as the agent of appellce, the rincipal had a rizht to follow the proceeds of ?lm grain, for the former was but o trustce of the graln or 1td procceds, and chancery had Jurisdiction. . . ‘There could be no question, morcover, that the transicr of the bills of Tadlnzr by Trofter to ‘Turner, when the wheat was shipped, vested the -title to the wheat in Turner, snd he alone therealter was entitled to the proceeds, The delivery of tho bills of lading was o _symbolical delivery of the wheat to Turner. The bitls of ladfng belng attached to the dralts when pre- sented to_appellant admonlshed him that the wheat belonged to Turner, and he must ne- count to him for the proceeds. Under such circumstances, ho had no right to appropriate the proceeds to the discharze of Trotter's indebted- uess to him, Taylor recelved the wheat uuder JDie conditions and limitations finposcd at the time of the shipment, and not otherwlse, The deerce of the Circult_Court fn Turner’s favor was therefore aflirmed. Justice Walker, dissenting, held that the romedy should be by actlon at law In trovery and that a court of cquity had no jurisdiction. l)lesm. Hiteheock & Dupes appeared for appel- ces. LIADILITY OF BURETIES ON APPEAL DOND3, Quite an {nteresting polnt was rafsed in the case of Willlam 1, Clapp ct al., appellants aguinat Geore W, Nable, appellee, just declded by the Bupreme Court, as to the Habllity of surctics'on appeal bonds. ~ In May, 1873, Noble lcased some pground for a mouth to James M. Nixon, to be used -as circus grounds, the rent_being $100 per week, When the thme was up Nixon refused to Ecl out, and Noble, after giving notlee to quit, brought suft in foreible ¢niry and detainer and recovered judgment. An ‘appeal was taken and houd wiven, During the progress of the sult in the Clreuit Court another bond wos given, and on appeal to the Bupreme Court a third bond was furnished. Nixon kept llmd.{rour.d &ll this time,- and did pot. quit untfl “October, 1873. The bonus were conditloned that Nixon should pay all rents due or becono dug fron the commence- ment of tho ault_to ite flunl determination, aud all damages or loss by the reason of the with- Yolding ot the premises, Willlam B. Clapo and Yilllan B. Laugley were suretivs on all these Tide. 4 When the orizinal sult was disposed of, sult ‘was at once brought on theae bonds to recover the rent accumleted n the meantfme, and . Judement was recovered for $4,.800. An appenl was takon,'aud_the principal question Involved wus whether Nizouwas llable to pav for the whole tiie per week the rent stipulated by the written lcuse, Noble clained he was, while Nixon coutended that the notice to quit at the end of ks term of four weeks terminated the relution of lundlord and tenant theretofore ex- isting, and that, for the subscquent oce cupancy, Noble could only recover the reasonable sental volue, without reganl 10 tho terma of tho Tease, Noblo inslsted that the lease was concluslve =8 to the measure of domages which ne ought to recover, on tho principle whore s tenant under a leuso forn stuted perfod held over it was upon an_finplicyd umdertaklug or Hability as to rent and thne of aynient similar to that contracted by the erms of tho lease. The Supreme Court sald that was the rule where tho tenait held aver with the lnplied ssacnt of hia landlord, and there wus no reason why the suno rule should not apply whero there was o bolding over In deflunce of -thu landlord, and after notice to quit. The presumption i cither case was that the tenant was satlstled with the terms of the lease, and was willlng to take tho rlsk by holdiug over, ‘The appelianis kind bound themselves to pay all renta duo at the thno tho bouds were executed, and all rentn to hecomo dus from the comaience- ment of tho sult to its fuul determination, and all damages and loss which tho lessor might sustaln vy the withbolding of the posacesion of tho premises, Tho rent must bo consldered to ha such as had been stipulated by the porties, Rental value was not numed, Lut rent, and the only rent nagreed on' was 8100 a week. There vould be mno qther o the contomplation of tho partles, Tho lease, although not signcd by the sorctles, \was the inducement for their undertaking, and was n roper instrunient of cvidenico to be lntroduced show the amount of reut tlmly hod oblizated themsclves to pay on o certuln contingenyy Which had happened. ‘The fudzment e? the Circuit Court was therefore aitrmed. A QUESTION OF LACHES, It the case of Annfs V, Johnsou, adminlstra. trix.\vs, Angetine Diversey, the Supreme Court cunsidered what wus to be considered Jaches in brueing suit. Fraucis Jobnson snd Michael Diverscy were purtucrs years ago in the llquor business; Joluson dicd i 1860, and {n tho followlng year his widow, as ml'mlulumlrlx.
