Smits.) BOTTES T. THE CIXT AND SCBUBBAN IRJUNENT JESETIT BUILDING SOCIETY. Thli was an appeal.froia decitioa of Mr. Jottieo Stirliog'x upon a question of the construction of rule of a appUcatiotfrelxted in fena to a inatter of lieadinj The action was brought by an investing member of ft building society who had girea. notice of withdrawal of his inretznents.

The notice became effective on February 20, 1891. The plaintiff sued on behalf of himself and all other mem ben who had given notices of withdrawal, which became effective on or before that date. He claimed jru'er alia, a declaration that the advancing' members were entitled to priority according to the dates at their respective notices of withdrawal became effect! The defendaQti took out a summons asking that the piainuu mignt oe oraerea to smena bis pleadings by iuiiu gut an passages wnrreiry ne was represented as suing otherwise than in his individual capacity. The material' rule of the society was as follows Upon giving 'one month's notice in writing to the secretary ot bis intention to do so, any member may withdraw his investments at an monthly mwrthig of the society, the amount to be repaid out of the moneys received from members in repayment of advances on the night fur witnurawai, out. snouid tne repayments not be sufficient, the balance shall be paid from the tame fund on the next or.

following monthly night. If several members shall give notice to withdraw within any one month they shall be paid pro rata." It was argued on the part of the defendants that, on the construction of this rule, in case theru was not sufficient money in hand at any monthly meeting to pay the members whose notices of witaarawai Eaiiinea matured, sucn members had no right to be paid at the next monthly meeting in priority to those members whose notice had in the meantime become effective. Mr. Justice Stirling refused to take that view, and consequently held that the form ot the action was right, and dismissed the summons. The defendants appealed.

Mr. and Mr. Monti cue Lush supported the appeal. Mr. Cecil E.

Bovill, tor the plaintiff, was not called upon. Their Lordships considered that the decision of Mr. Justice Stirling was correct, and dismissed the appeal. HIGH COURT OF JUSTICE. CHAXCERrDIVISIONV (Btfort Mb.

Justice Jhxttt.) MUSKY V. BAILEY. This was a case of residential nuisance. The plaintiff in the action was the occupier and lessee of a bouse and grounds called HighOeld, Buahey heath, Herts. The plaintiff held the property, which was of a residential kind, for a term of 21 years, commencing in 1SS9, at a rent of some 170, and had expended himself a considerable sum on the improvement of the property.

Some GO or 80 yards front the plaintiff's home were two cottages. In the year 1890 some land behind these cottages was purchased by the defendant, who was a builder and carpenter. Ibe defendant erected thereon a small villa residence and a workshop, the latter being a structure of corrugated iron, and glass, oa a brick In the spring of 1894 the defendant, who appeared to be an enterprising man and had increased hi business, placed in his workshop two circular saws. The larger and more powerful of these saws was Used lor cutting timber of some 11 in. in width and travelled to a length of 12ft.

The plaintiff alleged that the noise made by the working' of these saws constituted an intolerable nuisance, destructive of the health and comfort of himself and his wife and other residents in the house, and of such a nature that his house, if vacated, would be unlettable as a residence. The plaintiff claimed relief by injunction. The action was tried on viva voce evidence. Mr. Lerett, Q.C., and Mr.

K. 73. Yard ley appeared for the plaintiff aad Mr. Farwell, Q.C., and Mr. E.

Ford for the defendant. Ms, Justice Chittt said that the question was whether the alleged nuisance was of such a character as to materially interfere with the ordinary comfort of the plaintiff. This was the test' of nuisances alleged to arise from noise or the analogous classes of nuisances arising, for instance, from smell or smoke. It was true that persons who lived in towns and cities or manufacturing centres had to pot up with things, but it was alsa true that locality was a eircttmstanee which affected the legal decision of what was or was not a nuisance. Thus it bad been said that what would cco stitnte a nuisance in Belgrave square would dot neccs sarily be a nuisance in WhitechapeL The meaning of which was that the mode of' and standard of comfort were different ia different places.

In the present case the neighbeurhood was admittedly a residential one. The length of duration of the noise was another circumstance to be taken account. The noise here began at 0 in the morning and continued until 8 in the evening. As to the character and effect of the noise there was a conflict of evidence. The plaintiff and his wife said that they were wakened by it.

They described the noise as a continuous bussing, ending sometimes ia a discordant shriek and sometimes in a melancholy wail. This ending referred to the noise of saw.cn its quitting the timber.

Tne result of such an order would be the defendant could not use his aawa as he waa now using them, tfoch use was a nuisance at law.

Mr. T. B. Carson, ou behalf of the plaintiff, Mr. Richard Henry Oljn, moved ex parte for an interim injunction over Friday next, to restrain the defendants, the Associated Gold Mines of Western Australia (Limited), from allotting to the defendant G.

The plaintiff claims to be entitled, by virtue of an agreement between himself aad Doolette, to the 9,500 shares as his commission upon the sale of the It is understood that the Associated Company intend to proceed to an allotment of the 190,000 shares to morrow. Ms. Justice North granted aa injunction over Friday best, to restrain the Associated Company from dealing with or disposing of the 190.000 shares without reserving a sufficient number of shares to provide for the commits ion clsitricd by the plaintiff, and, ia the same way, to restrain Doolette from accepting any of the shares.

His Lordship also gave leave to serve notice of motion for Friday next, with the writ. (Before Mb. Justice Eeexwich.) The Practice as to Originating Summonses en the Chancery Division. Mr. Justice Keeewich has recently made some strong obserratioas upon the lax and inaccurate manner in which originating summonses for taking the opinion of the Court under Order LV; are not infrequently drawn, the questions submittedto the Court being framed either too generally, or else in sueh a vague and inaccurate form as to fail to state with any precision the real points required for the decision of the Court.

In a recent case hisJrushipmadetome observations upon the extreme inconvenience arising from originating summonses which asked for the opinion of the Court not being put into more precise form than they usually were, tans necessitating adjournments for amendment and further evidence, all leading to delay and additional expense, which would be avoided if the cases were presented in a proper manner, ta the first instance and he invited the attention of counsel to the great importance of theae summonses bemg carefully settled. For his part, added bis Lordship, he should like them in all cases to be signed by counsel, so as to insure, as far as possible, their being settled in a form properly adapted for obtaining the opinion of the Court, The question of practice or procedure thus raised by his Lordship has also led to similar observations by other Judges of the Chancery Division is one that seems to reouire the attention of the Rule Committee of Judge. It appears to be the common practice for these originating summonses to be settled by the plaintiffs solicitor, and not by counsel, although they often invohe questions of title to property of very large amount. It is understood that solicitors would gUdiv avail themselves of the assistance of counsel in sucn cases were it not for a rule prevailing, it is said, in the Taxing Master's office, not to allow on taxation any fee to eo'insel for settling an originating summons. This rule, if it does in fact exist, seems to require revision.

There annears to be no sufficient reason wiry a fee should not be allowed to counsel for settling the questions on aa originating summons involving, ss it' often does, large and important issues just as a fee is allowed for settling the endorsement of a writ, though dealing, it may be, with questions of less complexity and import ance tnaa tnose on an originating summons.

This was an action to recover damages for injuries sustaised by reason of the negligence of the company's servants. The defendants denied the negli gence, and also allejtd contributory negligence on the part of the plaintiff. Mr. Kemp, Q.C., Mr. Tindal Atkinsou, Q.C., and Mr.

P. Rose lanes were for the plaintiff and Sir Edward Clarke, Q.C., Mr. McCall, Q.C., and Mr. Arthur Powell were for the defendants. Mr.

Kemp, QIC, in opening the case to the jury. said this action was brought by the plaintiff to recover damages for very serious injuries which be. had sustained owing to an accident in which his phaeton had been run into by aa omnibus belonging to the defendant company. It appeared that on April 10, pi was being driven along the HacSney road at a slow pace r. nrin tv, WW.

tr.r 1 Ml. 1 WV WW UM west, and in the middle of it there is. a double line of tiam lines. The plaintiff 's phaeton was going towards the west, on the proper side of the road. 'Coming towards the plaintiff's phaeton, in the middle of the road, was a market cart.

Behind the cart, and going in the same direction, was aa omnibus, and the driver. desirous of parsing the cart on the outside, made a swerve, and In doing so the wheels of the omnibus caught in the train line, and this caused the r.Tnnit., t0 collide with the phaeton ia. which the plaintiff was driving. The omnibus, it was alleged, was op the wrong side of. the road, in a place where it ought not to be.

Both the plaintiff and bis eoaeh man were thrown out of the phaeton, and the former was very seriously iajuied. The plaintiff was picked up and conveyed home, and a doctor was called m. It was found that he was suffering Trom concussion of the spine. He was confined to his room for a considerable period, and at the present time he was in no way as strong a man as he had been before the accident. The result of the accident was very serious, as the plaintiff was not able to attend to his business properly.

That plaintiff had. been in three railway accidents, but at the time of the' accident in respect ot which be was claiming ia this action he had entirely recovered from any injuries be had sustained in the previous aceidents. In conclusion he asked the jury to award his client substantial damages for the injuries he had sm tamed. The plaintiff, Mr. H.

M. Newman, was then called, and said he was a cigar merchant carrying on business at 4 and 5, Long lace. Aldsrsgate street. On April 10 he was driving along llackney road towards Aidfz. gate street between 6 and 7 o'clock in the evening.

His phaeton was on the left side of the read going towards the west, about a yard from the kerb. He saw a market cart in the middle of the toad oa the tram line going towards tbe east. As the cart was an reaching he saw an omnibus come from behind it suddenly. Tbe wheels the omnibus caught in tie tram line, aad this caused to skid. The omnibus struck his phaeton with great violence, and he was i thrown out into the cutter.

He waa ttiirted up. As he could not set a esio, he got into a pasiixr tramcar aad went to cis office in Aldengate treat. He felt ery ill and trembled a good deal. He was Uken home aad was Terr ill all night. He vomited and felt great pain in his back aad ia his limbs.

At the present time he. felt depressed aad morbid and could not attend to his business. He had previously been ia three railway accidents, but had entirely recovered from all injuries that he had saw tained in them before this accident happened.

Abrahams for the defendants W. G. S. Moekford and W. C.

Mockf oid and Lord Coleridge, Q.C, and Mr. Percy Uye for the defendant Arthur Dent. Mr. McCaLL. is the course of his oprninj on Monday, referred to various companies which were known as the Moekford group, sad ia the first place asked the jury to dioniss anything they had heard regarding them from their minds.

This action had reference to only two of these companies, but in order to follow what took place it would be necessary to detail the circumstances attending tbe earlier companies. lo79, Mr. Moekford, who had been a chemist, carrying on business ia some part of London, somehow or another became pcssed of a large tract of land in the Transvaal, which for many years remained a white elephant on his hands. In however. She stir is the African gold fields arose, aod it then occurred to him to float the first of the companies with which his name has been connect ed.

The company waa called the Harmony Proprietary Company (Limited) and had a capital of a million pounds, and was registered on March 23, 18vd. The memorandum of association was signed at Mr. MocEfor i's hooe, probably, as one learned Judge had said, in the back parlour, and all the signatories were members ef Mr. Mock ford's family. A contract was entered into the same day by which the comtxny took over the lands in the? Transvaal, belonging to Mr.

Moekford, and all the shares, except' the seven subscribed for by the signatories to the memorandum, were allotted to Mr. Moekford. He (Mr. McCall) 'would pause here to remark that tha Legislature never intended that a man should make himself into a company and constitute himself both vendor and purchaser. Tee next step was to cut up the big tract ef land and form subsidiary companies to buy them.

The first company so formed was the Sutherland Reefs Company, and the method adopts 1 be lore was followed again, the wife, daughters, aad governess of Mr. Mockiord appearing aa signatories: Further, the share capital of this company was allotted to Mr. Moekford as the consideration for granting a lease, in perpetuity of the property. The shares actually, went to a premium of 10, although there was no reason for it. Then followed, oa October 4, ls9, the Excelsior Estates Company, the first One concerned in this action.

It was formed in the same way exactly as the other two, with 500,000: for capital, all toe shares, except the seven taken by the family of Mr. Mockiord.being allotted to Mr, Moekford. The company was thus formed pursuance of a seneme or plan by which Mr. Moekford bad thu whole of the capital in his hands to do with it what he liked and not to carry on any bena Jtde tnsineas or with any bona fide object, and in pursuance of this scheme a proe pectus was prepared and sent out on September .37, 1889, accompanied by the following: latter 18, Great Winchester street, London, E.C, Sep te nber 27, 1889. Dear Sir, Herewith you will receive prospectus, Ac, of the Excelsior Estates (Limited).
