AN IMPORTANT INSURANCE CASE, Business of the Police Courts Yesterday. IMPORTANT MECHANICS’ LIEN CASE. James Tisdale, having furnished Matilda Moore with about $1,000 worth of lumber to repair three houses \m Astoria, fled a notice under the Mechanics’ Lien law ef 1862 One day, however, previous to bis doing to Mrs. Moore and her busband deeded the property fo Joseph G, Moore, and the latter executed at the same hime a mortgage thereon to Benjamin F. Moore. Mr. Tisdale brought suit to enforce his lien, making all these parties defendants, and alleging that these con- veyances were designed by them to defeat bis claim, and were fraudulent and void, Judge Dykman sus- tained a demurrer to the complaint on the ground tat two causes of action—ei on contract against Mrs. Moore, and to enforce a lien against her, and another sharging defendants with making fraudulent convey- ances of the property—were improperly united. The General Term of the Supreme Court have now reversed that decision, boldimg that ‘‘uuless the plainti® can maintain the complaint the lien law is nsciess, By giving @ fraudulent and void deed the owner may pre- vent must prove ownership at the date of filing b He cannot do that without proof to destroy To do that Mectually {ree the land from its operation he m: the grantees ef the void papers: " parties.” Mr. Frank E, Blackwell appeared for plaintiff and Justus Palger for deiendants, REFORMING WRITTEN CONTRACTS.

David Frince La- cetta F, France, his wife, to use of Samuel B. Selvage,— In error to the Circuit Court for the Eastern distriet of Pennsylvania —The action was assumpsit, te recover $10,000, amount ofa policy issued upon the life of Andrew J, Chew in July, 1865, The issuing of the pol- tey, the death of Chew, amd the service of the neces- sary proofs of his death are sot seriously pace The policy contained the following ciauso:—‘‘And it 16 also auderstood and agreed to be the true inteat and meaning hereof, that if the proposal, wers, and delaration mado by said Andrew J. Chew, aud bearing date the 12th day of July, 1865, aud which are hereby made part und parcel of tis policy as fully as if herein Tecitec, and upon the faith of which this agreement 1s mado, shall be fonnd in aay respect false or iraudu- lent, then and in sich case this policy shail be null’ and void.” The issuing of the policy was preceded by & proposal for insurance which contained a number of questions propounded to | Chew by the company, with the answers made by bam, Im relation to such questions and auswers the policy th It is hereby declared ( sig of the contract for instraoce, and aiso that auy true or fraudulent answers, qny suppression of facts in regard to the party’s health, or neglect to pay the pre- mium on or betere the day it becomes due shall render the policy pull and void and forfeit «ll payments made thereon.” Among others were the following questions and answers, Viz. :—‘Question 4—Place and date of birth ef the party whose life is to be insured?

None Evidence om both sides wi given, as to the age of Chew, tending to show that he was thirty-seven years old, or at lenst shirty tive years old, when he signed the application, and upon the question of his having suflered by a rupture lore the case was submitted to the jury, a number of requests to charge were made to the Judge, which will be reterred to presently. In its main features this cas bears a close resembiance to that of Jeffries va. The Keonomical Insurance Company, decided atthe last term of this court (22 Wall, 47). In tnat case, this, it Was insisted that ihe fal ity of a statement made in the application did not vitiate the pobicy issued upoa it, unless the statement so made was material to the risk assumed, The opinion then delivered con- tains the following language in answer to that claim :— “The proposition at the foundation of this point is this—that the statements and decaration made im the policy shall be true, ‘This stipulation is not expressed to be made a8 to important oF material statements only, oF to those suppesed Lo be material, as to all statements. Th tements need not come up to the degree of warranties. They may not be representa- tions eves, if this term conveys an id rmation having any technical character, Statements aud declarations 18 the expression—what tbe applicant states and what the appicant declares. Nothing can be more simple. If he makes any statement in tho application it must be true. Ifhe makes any decia- ration in (he application it must be true, A faithful formance of this agreement is made an express tion to the existence of a havility on the part of the company.’? This decision 18 reaflirmed, and the ruling made below on a request to charge that if the deceased, although ne had been ruptured, was really not suffering inconvenience from it at the time, It was no obstacle in the way of recovery is hela erroneous; and it is said this was a grave error and must have im- posed a great straim apon the powers of the jury. Ro- versed and new trial ordered. 31s. Justice Hunt de- hivered the opinion. BANKRUPTCY—JURIADICTION OF THE DISTRICT coURTS— CONSTRUCTION OF THE act oO 1867. No. 135, William W. Lathrop, assignee in bankraptey of James W. Adams, appellant, vs. Samuel Drak Appeal! from the Circuit Court for the Eastern eae of Pennsyivania.—The question in this casé is whether, under the Bankrupt aet, as passed in 1867, an assigneo in bankruptcy, without regard to the citizenship o! the partios, could maintain a suit for the recovery of assets in a Circuit Court of the United Stetes in any district other than that in which the decree of bankruptcy was made, If not, whether the amendatory act of 1574 (18 Stat, 178, sec. 3) validated such a suit already com- menced, The jurisdiction of the Circuit Courts in cases of bankruptcy, a8 conlerred by the act of 1867, Was twofold—original and appellate—the latter being exercised in two diflerent modes, by petition of review and by appeal or writel error. [at ibe enacting clauses which confer this jurisdiction make each direct reference to the jurisdiction 0! the dis- trict court that it is unneces examine the latter jurisdiction. Of th distinct classes; frst, jurisdiction as # court of bank- rupicy over the proceedings in bankruptey imitiated by the petition and ending in the distribution of as- sets among the creditors, and the discharge or retusal of a discharge of the bankrupt; secondly, jurisdiction a8 an ordinary court of suits at law or in equity brought by or against the assignee in reference to 7 | alleged property of the bankrupt or to ciaims alleged to be due fromorto him. The language conferring this jurisdiction of the district courts 1s very vroad and geveral, It is that they shall dave orignal ) diction in (heir respective districts tm ali matiers proceedings in bankruptcy. The various branches of this jurisdiction are atierward specified, resu ting, how. ever, in the two general classes belore mentioned. Were it not for the words “In their respective districts’? the jurisdiction would extend to matiers of bankruptcy arising any where without regard to locality, It is Couiended that these words confine it to cases arising in the district, but such is not the language, [heir Jurisdiction is ‘confined to their raspective 1s true; but it extends to all matters and proceedings bankruptey without limit, Whe: ail have Jurisdiction in th respective districts Each court wi tts own dis- trict. may exercise the powers coulerred; but those | powers extend to ail matiers of bankruptcy without Himitation, There are, it is true, limtiatioas elsewhere im the aet; but they aflect only the matters to which they reinta, Sach jurisdiction was conterred upon tne District, but not upun the Circuit courts. The amenda- id, removed any ambiguity that may wit id not thereby impress a more upen the language of the orginal act than was due to it by a fair judicial eonstraction, On the merits the case is said Lo be too plain for argu- ment in favor of the appelices, Reversed.

After a review Of the statute it is said that the government bas the right to prescribe the conditions on which it wil sub- ject itself to the judgment of the court in the collection ‘of Its revenues; otherwise the very existence of the government might be placed in the power of a hostile J Bat the rule prescribed in this case ts either arbitrary nor unreasonable.
