THE CHICAGO TRIBUNE: WEDNESDAY., JANUARY &, 1870—TWELVI PAGES. T “HAWAIL TR COURTH was contended. by the city that, even though the Tond was vokt, tho suretics ‘must be hold ble on the groundsof estoppel. ‘The principle 4 that, when one of two fnnocent parties suffer fn consequento of tho traudulent act of a third, that oue of the former must bear the loss, who by his megliganco had enabled the third um{ to commit the Iraud, and that the surcties by signing the blank ns thoy did, and permitting Gage to have rnncultm of it with thelr siznatures, enabled hiin o fil ¢ up and thus practice a fraud on the city h{(hclrnofllh:once. That Gagae dkl_pre- sont the band to the Common Councll, and the citv, without any notice of any antecedent fn- firmitles In 18 ‘exeention, scéeptod It, by rea- 200 of which tuo surcties were cstopped from ploadine that the bond waa vold. Tle question wau, therafore, ralsed as to whether tha city, at or beforo the time_of the scceptance of the bond, had notiec of tho facts connected with tho executlon of the bond. The city charter provided that all ofticial bonds should Ue filed with the City Clerk within tifteen days after the cleatlon of the parly giving the boud, and if the bond was not given n such time, the person so in default should be deemed to bave refuscd such offlee, and it should be filled by ap- pointment. The City Clerk, thercfore,” was made the only agent of the city to receive and hold all officlal bonds, and a delirery to him was adelivery to the ety He must then boan ngzens of the city to recelve notices of any fact affcctlog such bonds. Gago's bond was deliv- eredto Gen. Hotcklss tho 27th of November, seven days after tha canvass of the votes, signed in blank, end It #o romafncd until Dec. 11, five dsys after the expiration of the fiftecn days. Ha therefore knew that the bond was vold,” it being a mere blank, Notles of tha condition of the bond was also brought to the attcotion of Mr. Holden, presiding officer of the Commoo uncll, and to that of Mr. Clyde, Assistant Corporation Counsel, It was nat neceasary that notice should be brought to the Corporation Counsel, notice to the City Clerk waa suflicleut. But, more than that, thie condition of thic bond was such to put the Common Coundil on Inquiry. It must, therefore, be beld that the city took the bond with notlce, for what It might hiave learned by reasonable i uiry it must be held as knowing. ‘The simple daté of the bund, under the m‘:l start or maintain a sugar treacherously concealed thém, - Trace being gotten of the whereabouts of these murderers, the military authoritica demanded the sarrender of them that they might be tarned over Lo the clvil authority and tricd as common -murderers.

At first tHey peremntorily re- fused, but when two of thele Chiefs and one of thelr men wera seized as hostsges and earrled to confinement in Fort Walla Walla, tucy in s few days consented to give up the crimi- nols, saying, ‘‘.4e hyas tum-nm™ (mo very heart); but is I£ e01 These eriminaly, tour fo number, wore tried hy the civil law, and three wers found zuilty and sentenced to be hnn;lszv‘mllo the other was acquitted by proving an Al 3 A The executfons are to take place—two on the 10th mod one on the 17th of January. Ssrious threats and uomistakable signs are given that these Indfana shall not die, and thelr comendes are preparing to swoop down onh tho whites at thoday of executlon, and avenge their imag inary wronga and liberate the eriminals. ‘Toavoud the carrying out of this plan the Bherift of Umatflla County has Issucd a call for 200 whits men, well-armed, to be present at the time of execution, The murderers sheltered b Mosas—whoss reservation fs on the noril side of the Columbla, ln Waahington, while the Umat{llas are on the south In Orcgon—have ‘been more fortunate. Negotintions for the de- livery of thesc men have been golng on for at Teast thres months, and nothing accompilshed. Moses continually declarcs that he ts willing to give up the mon, but when tho time comcs for thelr delivery he aiways pleads some technl- callty in tho greement which ensbics him to hold tho men. Only a few dsya ago the Bheriff of Yakima County went to Moscs with sevouty- five whites ond fifteen Indians 88 a gusrd to de- mand the delivery of thess murderers. When Moses saw the Slierilf and possc coming he et them with his whole force In srms and paint making warlike demonstrations. Owing to the ereat pumber of Indians the whites were com- pelled to retreat and aak ald of the military. trustees, While many references inthe will indicated a gencrsl cherltable {ntention on the part of the testator, and & supponition that the tpustees wonid probanty foind & charitsble fnstitution, yet they did not contain theex- vression of an aflirmative wish, direction, or de- sire that such should be the result. After con- aldering them and giving proner weight to the language of the entire will, it must bhoheld that the testator gave expression to & clear and tanifest intentlon to_vest his trustees with 8 discretion ta devote the rostduary find to found- Ing nn_ {institntton, efther charitable or non- clinritable, secording to which might do ' the most Eml(tlve and enduring good and the least harm.” Any attempt to narrow or abridegs the discretion thus clearly and with manifest pur- poso given to the trustesa would only be sub- stituting the will of the Court for tlie wil of tho teatator, The bequest must stand or fail, A8 the testator had seen fit to make it. Selulously as the law strove to uphnld, whercver it ‘could, teatamentary dispositions of property, aml cspecially boquests to charita- blo uses, such retult could not _be attained con- trary to the clearly-expressed Intention of the testator. Insuch eass his intention must pre- vall even thongh a faflure of the bequeet might be the consequence. ‘Tne rules of coustruction could not bs strained to bring s devisa within the rules of law, Nor was the doctrino of E‘ pres apolicabls, for that only operated when the fund was once deflnitely devoted to charity, and no mode for Its application was prescrihed, or the mode failod which was sclected by the tostator. Then the courts, under the cy pres power, would subatituts some other mode of donating the property to charitahlo purposes to prevent a fallure of the charity. Tho residuary boqueat, therefore, at least as far e tho ‘Trustees wera concorned, was vold for un- certalnty. The noxt question was whother, on falure of the trust in the Trustees, the fund should go to the Home for the Friendless or to the heir at faw. But the conditlon on which the estato went to the lfome was not a mere failure of the former trust, but deponded on 'the dlscretlon or cholve of the Truatees as to whether 1t should 20 to 8 charitable or non-charitable Institution. The Home did not occupy the position of & tesiduary legatee, but was only named by way of additfon to the ranze of charitable institu- plantation required alarge outlay of mouey for machinery, irtigation, and labor, a8 well aa implementa, 'and a thou- sand other tncidentalr, long before a dollar could be returned. They had not tho money todo this, and could not get it froin abroad. num- ber of plantations had been starred in tha most favorable places even years ago, but their strug- gle for existence waa & desperate one. Many of them brought their promoters to bankruptcy, and were flnally abandoned, while others main- tained a precarfous existance, constantly threat- ening the same results. The reciprocity treatv, which admitted Hawallan auzar {nto the Btates free of duty, CHANGED ALL TRIS, Capital, without which the sugar interests thers mnat ever be a [allure, could now be obtatned in sufficient amounta to fnsore success whero faflure before was fnevitable, Then the 8716,- 782 of dutics which the Becretary says we have surrendeted on Hawallan sugara sioce the {reaty have not been surrendered at all, since but for the treaty there would have been no sugar there to import and collect duty from. But for the treaty the imports of sugar from the fsland would have been Inaignificant. and very Jittle revenue could have been derived from that source. It may Le lml{ sald that the treaty has created that ‘suzar the loss of the daty on which the Becretary g0 much laments. Yes, you may truly say that, without the treaty, the revenuc derived from Hawailan sugar would never havo been,and all this Increased demand for our products—our manufactures and our shio- ping and sbipbullding—would never have been created. Al this is duc to the influance of tho reciprocity treaty, True, this sugar came in competition with’other and duty-paying sugar, and to a certain extent han reduced the rovenue on sugar; but wa may safely assume that the tion to prevent the defendant from using the teade-mark of the word “Parabola' to denote 2 particular brand of sewing needier, or elso re- quiring him to filo & bond in the sum of $5,000 to pay all damsges srisiog from the use of such trado-mark.

The most Important opinjon by far of thoss anuounced yesterday waa thnt in tho case of The City of Cbleago ve. David A, Gage and his bondsmen. Tho facte, althouch tamiliar to many, may be bricly summarized as follows: (lawe was blected City Treasarer {n Novemnber, 1809, and rb:#lected In 1871, ‘At the expiration f his secoud term of oflice the balance In hls lanide, ns shown by his offcfal Looks, was $005,780.81, of which he pald over $453,077.23, leaving n deficlt of $507,700.08. To recover this sult was brought In the Clrcult Court ngalnat Gage and tho boudsmen on the second bond, and judgment wos recovered for the above smount. Au appeal was takon, and threo principal grounds of error were llezed: firat, the refusal of* Judge Rogers to allow tho defendants to show by parol cvidence that the balances on the bouks were flctitfous, and .that the defleit occrrod durlug Gage's first term; socond, that tha bond sued on was entircly and fatally defeetive and vofd; and, third, tat, Ly the fail uro to fle o good bond within the fitteen days ditlon Ercmdenl to Gage's obtaining ofice, and the public had such rights {u the performance of that conditfon as to make tho statute manda- tory and not dircctory merely. The fact that tha elty did not excrcisa {ta Fight of appolnt- ment mado no difference. 'That failuro of Gage's to file his bood relieved Lis boudsmen from all Tiability, even though tho bond was in other re- spacts perfect, The twenty-sccond instruction asked by tho defendauts in the count below, ‘which fnvolved the above principle, should haye been gven. For the above reasona the case would be reversed. TIRE TAYLOR WILL CASE. Anotherdecisionof greatinterest tothogoneral public was that In the case of, Hobart Chintfield Taylor ve. Albert Keepand others, lnvolving the yalldity of tho willof the late tenry Iobart Taylor, aud the disposition of an cstate worth $750,000, ‘Taylor dicd In November, 1875, leav- ing a widow and onc son his solo heirs, _ 1le de- wised tho fnterest on one-third his property to s wife, the principal to go ta his son after her death. If shie should survive him, the principal was to go to certaln chinritable uses, and, {f sho refused to take undor tho will, sbo wua to re- celvaat onco full control of one-third the estate. A tract of Jand was also given Lo tho son and $30,000 In casl, to Le inveated in Intereat- Bearlug socuritics, and the principal at his death to o to his children, i Lo hud sny, and if not, to certaln charitabls fastitutions, All tho rest of his estats was to bo given to saven trusteos to bo used In the founding and endowing in Chicago of such an tosiftution, charitable or otherwise, as thoy thought was most needed and would do the must positive and enauring good. If tho trustees declded not to found any new {ustitution, the property was togo to tho Homa for the Fricndless, ‘Tlie contest was over this last deviso to charl- table Institutions and over tho clause glving £50,000 to the son. Tt wascharzed thedevise was vold for indefinitences in tho benofctarics thereunder, and that tho property embraced In tho restuuary request and contingent charity bequest should go to the son. A cross-bill was flled by the Home of the Friendless to savo the ba sustained as such. . For the above reasons the decree of the Court helow would be reversed and a decrea entercd In favor of tho original complaivant.

Judee Willlams, however, dismissed the bill, and Alken appealed. Judge Pleasants held that the | case presented no Instance of property right threatened by the proposed action of the Stats Board.

An fa- junction only lay 1o & case where tha threatoned conduct diroctly affected soma proparty or choss 1o uction, real or personal, in possession or ex- pectancy, and which could be specifically de- scribed. The complainant’s profession was a meana of acquiring property, but It would not affcet any property which could bo described as his in posscssion or In action, vested or con- tingent, Tho Court could not know that he would ever havon patient.

The Tug Albatrots, Judge Blodgett yesterday entered an order va- eating the decrev and order spprovivg the Couie wilssloner’s report, and glviog tho defendant twenty days in which to fllo oxceptions to the Commisstoner's report. This wes a libel to re- cover salyaze for saving tho Albstross. It sccms that In December, 1878, the Albatross, then moored toa dock at Detroit, broke adrift aud out past the lighthouse fnto Milwsukee Bsy. Tha tug Orcen was hired to go and find her and bring hor back, which was dove, the work valy occupying about two hours and & balf. The owner of the tug Green subss- quently presentsd a bill for 8150 for salvage, nearly half the value of the vessel, and & part owner of the Albatross signed a due- blll for that amount, It was vot paid, how- t was begun for the swount. Proudfoot, to whom the case was referred, reported fhat the amount was reasouable, should be patil. Tbe defendant claimod 4 vago only mecrued for voluutary scrvice; that in the present cass tho tug Green was bired to get tus Albatrows Lavk, and was ouly entitled to a remsouable suia for such service, therw belug no danger of the Albatross beiug lost, Tha report wes filed without potice 1o the defenda 5 lohvodien u«&;fld llnymvnl! po cxceptions Yesterday morning Ms, W, H.

As to the second polnt, that the bond was vyold, It appeared that it was signed In blauk by the suretfes, and subséquently filled up by the officers of .the clly by {nserting the names of (b suroties {u the penal part of the bond: also the penalty there- af, and the date and oflles to which Uave was ¢locted, The clty authoritics Insieted that the strcties by siguing the bond in blauk snd feay- fog it with Gageto be by him used thereby nade hin their agent so as to glve hima rizht 10 i}l out the blanks and make the ument Uinding oun them.. But tho law was well wet- tled the other way, and 08 to s}l partivs who bad wotice of such wsigning, or were io possessfon of such facts as would put prudent person oun {nquiry, the bond ‘was absolutely void as -Tmu the surctics. That doctrine had been filly established by the Bupreme Court of Hlinols fo the case of P'auple vs, Orgun et al., 87 L, 20, Jt wag thery Leld that a deed to be bindivg must be' in writiug, signed, scaled, and detiVered bl’ the partles, sud o paper algued and sealcd fo blank, with .verbal authority to il the blank, which wasafterwards done, wes vold as to the parties signing and sealing unlees they altcrward doliverid, or as- knowiedged, or adopted it.
