Attempt to Have the Instrument Declared Void SOME INTERESTING ARGUMENTS AS TO WHETHER THE TESTATOR HAD THE RIGHT TO TIE UP HIS ESTATE AS HE DID A case involving a larger amount than any ever before brought in the courts of Wayne County if not in the State of Michigan and one hinging upon the most difficult points of law all attorneys admit was partially argued before Judge Jennison in the Circuit Court yesterday It amounts practically as was fully demon strated by the arguments to a contest of the will of rancis Palms who died last November leaving an estate of as it is now esti mated The matter was brought into court on a petition to have a judicial construction of Certain clauses and this is what the court is asked to do But by the decision the will must stand or fall wholly or in part As one of the eminent counsel admitted yesterday: is a practical contest of the Palms will That is just what it was brought for and what it amounts The suit was brought by rancis and Miss Clotilda Palms children of the testator and O'Brien the three acting as trustees and ex i ecutors of the will of rancis Palms against I the seven minor children of rancis Palms It is claimed that a provision in the will which retains the property of the minor children of rancis Palms in the hands of the trustees after the death of rancis and Miss Clotilda Palms is against the statute of perpetuities and renders the will void It is also claimed that a codicil providing for the accumulation of min ing royalties is equally objectionable under a similar statute On the other hand It isclaimed on behalf of rancis Palms and his children that the will is valid throughout There Is an array of learned counsel repre senting the parties in interest and the court room yesterday was

that he was one of the trustees and executors under the will of the late rancis Palms who died November 24 Inst He left a son rancis and a daughter Clo tilde ths latter unmarried He was familiar with the general character of the assets of the deceased which consisted of bank insurance and other corporation stock and real estate in Detroit the Upper Peninsula and in Texas i the amount of net revenue derived from the estate asked Mr Kirchner "it will exceed js your knowledge of the property is this revenue likely to "It is bis will be by the conversion of non revenue paying lands into

table and other seats inside the bar rapidly filled up with members of the legal profession desirous of hearing the cause argued Mr Kirchner onened the caae The bill he explained way filed by the three trustees against the grandchildren of rancis Palms to obtain a judicial declaration as to the validity of the trusts explained iu the will Their claim was that the tru did not suspend the powers et alienation for more than two lives The will was not at all complicated As no doubt many readers of The kee Press have forgotten the provisions of the will they are given as summed up by Mr Kirchner Ail the property was left to the com plainants in the action in trust they to sell lease or repair the property and to invest and reinvest the proceeds to pay certain legacies not involved in the contro versy to pay one half of the income to rancis and the other half to Miss Clotilde semi an nually upon the death of either child without issue surviving it to pay the entire net income to the survivor for life to pay one half the prin cipal of the estate to the children of son and to the issue ot any deceased children by right of representation in equal proportions upon his deal the same provision regarding the daughter children if she has issue The tenth clause of the will upon which nearly all rests is: he share of any grandchild who maybe a min upon the death of his father he being my son or of his mother she being mv daughter shall remain in a part of said trust estate and under the management ot said trustees until such child shall he of age In that case said trustees shall make allowance as to them may seem proper for the support and education of such grandchild" The second clause of the codicil by which it is also sought to break the will reai "I hereby direct that the royalties and all other moneys received from leases from mineral lands whether such leases bo made by me dur ing my lite or my executors and trustees after my death shall be considered a portion of the capital of tnv estate and shall be invested as such bv my executors and trustees the income from such capital to be paid to my children as my will provides the accumulation from these sources not to continue longer than the minority of my grandchildren now living after which thuToyaltics as incomefrom mineral lands shall be paid to my The trustees under the will Mr Kirchner argued were given power to sell Hie property and to invest and reinvest at their discretion This power was not contingent on Its being ex ercised in connection with any other powers Io start with the trustees were given this unre strained power The common law rule against alienation had been modified by the statutes of IMO so tar as relates to real estate Section 5530 of Howell" annotated statutes providestliat

by the Democratic County Committee A reeling however is manifested in favor of nominating Councilman William Look for the position The Third and ifth Wards are solid for him Ever since the arrest of Robert A West the alleged smuggler of opium the officers of the customs service in this city and in San rancis co have been studiously endeavoring to com plete the list of the members of the extensive conspiracy through whose hands the contraband drug passed on its way from British Columbia to St Thomas Ont Detroit and San rancisco The arrest of West in this city was the first in terruption in the working of the system which lias no doubt cost Uncle Sam some thousands of dollars in the way of defrauded revenue The identity of the parties operating on British ter ritory is comparatively immaterial as they are not amenable to law and a knowledge of their personality might or might not be of service in tracing the members ot the conspiracy in the United States Intelligence from San rancisco receive in this citj last night throws con idefable light on the persons who were the recipients of tbe drug in that city and leaves little doubt that by to day all the guilty parties iii lie known and under arrest it is ascertained that shipments from Detroit were received in San rancisco by a drayman named Edward Bohannan residing at 223 'arrell street and delivered by him to a prominent Chinese merchant named Wah Mee who was arrested some days ago with a trunk tul of the drug removed from a Sixth street stable Wah Mee simply closes up like a clam and refuses to say a word 1 iohannnu on the contrary loudly protests his innocence and claims that if he has delivered any of the prohibited drug he lias done so without a knowledge of what it was The United States Commissioner fixed bail at the sum of $50g0 It was procured and he was released The United States authorities in San rancisco feel assured that they have the right nian in custody As a consequence Collector Campau and

personality if it should hold it void as to realty The authorities Kircbner contend ed answered this question affirmatively and he cited a number ot cases iniludiug Tom Vs William 41 Mich Mr Kirchner's second proposition was: The trustees are given full power to sell and dispose of property real and personal in their discre tion There cannot therefore ever tie a time when there are "no persons being Uy whom an absolute fee possession cannot be con This was a Droposition which Mr Kirchner considered settled in the case of Thatcher vs St Andrew's Church 37 Michigan t7 and widen was otten referred to in the arguments This decision laid down a rule of property which bad ever since its enunciation been regarded by the profession and under which he had drawn hundreds of wills When such a rule was established all criticism was forever si lenced It was not necessary to go to New York or Wisconsin after our Supreme Court bad sjioken on the subject If the decision in the Thatcher case was not sound then thousands of will were not worth the pnpet on which they were written The gentlemen of the other side had been kind enough to furnish with their briefs It was claimed tn that the New 5 ork decisions differed from those ot tbe Michigan supreme Court 1 be only case New ork where the decision held that the bare power of alienation vested not take the ease out or the against lerpcr held for a period prohiu: nrewer vs nrewer i cede that this which In in New ors "Unless 1 little profit should enn th: raises it beyoti statutory prim case Lnueror willing to Ion' Supreme Court desi nail Better itself ing not onli the intere sustained and so much as away In opening this to submit We contend is valid If the court flint the trust does not extend of the two in being then we the court to treat it as a mere power of sale conferred on the trustees: if not thiit if the trust is void beyond the two lives in being it is a void encumbrance We ask you to hold the will in full force aud effect as to personality" Mr Kirchner occupied over two hours with his argument and was not once interrupted The clock was on the stroke of 12 when A Kent began his argument on behalf of Miss Clotilde Balms In considering a will or a trusthe said the possibilities were to be consid ered If by any possibility an estate conflicted with the rules of law that estate was void He claimed that if Miss Clotilde alms died then and there her estate would go to her brother and when he died would have extended through two lives and still be vested in trustees Clear ness was a first essential and he went into the common law independent of the statute and then considered the latter the realty was concerned the th nt thi will rintf'TYY'innrt hv hft statute This the time during which estates could become in alienable in the New York cases quoted by Mr Kirchner Prof Kent held that the question ot vesting of trusts had nothing to do with it it was whether an estate was alienable or Inalien able Vested he argued meant property held bv a person so that it descended to his children Vested was all wrong in the sense used by Mr Kirchner Whether the estate vested or not so long as it remained in the hands of the trus tees it was inalienable As Mr Kirchner pre dicted Prof Kent wanted the whole will set aside but bad only fairly warmed up to his ar gument when at 12:30 a recess was taken At the opening ot the afternoon session Prof Kent immediately resumed his argument come he said "to the question whether the power of sale convened in the will makes the estate alienable within the power of the statute" The policy of the common law for 300 years was to arrange it so that property might be sold given anything so as not to keep it tied up It there were a pile of derisions fill ing all the books he would still say that the tuudamental principles of common law could not be overthrown by the casual decision or remark ot any judge The power of sale under the will could only be exercised to increase the property and make a better investment A man who held property in trust could sell it only tor the benefit ot the trust In commonnw' there was no such thing as a vested trust es tale inalienable There was no possibility at common law that the power of sale could be ex ercised beyond the limits as to perjietuity Kent then took up several New Y'orK eases cited by Mr Kirchner There was no di rection to hold property in the will Had there been a direction to sell real estate and invest in personal property it would all be considered as personal property but that question did not arise It was customary in all the New Y'ork cases to hold the power of sale void Upon anything outside of the State it was perfectly settled that no power of sale could extend beyond he limits of perpetuity If it did the rich men ot the coun try might ti up their estates forever and uye Prof Kent here referred to the ease ot Thatcher vs St Church 37 Mich on which Mr Kirchner said he was willing to rest the en tire case and a good humored little tilt between Prof Kent and ex Judge Marston ensued Prof Kent remarked finally that no citations were given in the decision at all is the fault ot the said Mr Marson It would seem that the Jndge looked at no authorities Himself" retorted Prof Kent and a smile went round among the attorneys for Mr Marston himself wrote the opinion ollowing the words of the statute conttnuea Prof Kent the whole trust was void 1 he Palms estate was within the lull meaning ot a future estate as provided in the statute iquoteu above) Then the question came up was it one estate or several The trustees were given the whole estate When the last grandciild be came of age the trust would cense But bad they several estates? No" said Prof Kent "In my opinion there is but one estate Money is to be paid to sever al different persons but still it is but one As soon as a court began separating the autes of a will lie argued it began making a will In trying to save what was valid a entirely dlirerent from rue one luieuuou two lives in being at the time of the testator's death This proposition is self evident Noth ing stands between the right of actual posses sion ot the testator's grandchildren and such of their issue as would take by right of representa tion save the lives of tbe testator's son and daughter The question therefore is whether the will violates the rule against perpetuities because the tenth clause of it extends the trust during the minority of the several grandchil dren and beyond tire two lives in being at the time of the Mr Kirchner submitted that notwithstanding the tenth clause the interests of the grand children in the remainder vested as in interest nt the time of the testator's death and would vest in possession immediately upon the death of either rancis! or Clotilde On this point a score of cases were cited Also that in any event the interest of the beneficiaries was indis tinguishable from the trusts They are so far as they extend beyond the lives of the son and daughter to be treated as powers anil if illegal to that extent as void encumbrances upon the oKini pte tfnit Prof Kent would claim that if the estate vested in the trustees it would not be vested in the grandchildren Tills was wrong The title vested in tbe trustees tor the purposes "of a trust only The property Was given to the trustees for this purpose or all other pur poses the title was in the beneficiaries If the court held that the effect of tbe tenth clause of the will was simply a mere power over Hie estate conferred on the just such power as a guardian might exercise or a person appointed by ttie court to sell the real estate of then it was a mere power of disposition loinvest and reinvest Apart from this the title vested in the minors "it seems to said the counsel citing a number of cases this ends any contro versy Prof Kent will ask you to overrule these cases and throw the will overboard on account of the clause vesting the estate iu trustees dur ing the lite of the two children and that the whole will is void But I contend that wherever a trust is created that extends beyond the time of the statute so much as is good should be WJ1AL L111UY all 1 have that the will of opinion beyond the lives Xiecl At 254 Beaubien st i rid ay March 25 at 8:45 Henry Look aged year 6

other The will bhouiu be sustained Mr Kirchner re iterated so far as it related to personal proper ty That section ot it was valid It the estate consisted alone of personal property there could be no possible controversy It the court found that the tiust expressed in the will violated the statutory rule against perpetuity the court should sustain it only as to pi rsohal property and consider it as to realty i lien Mr Kirchner made another point and it was this: The beneficiaries under the will take in sever alty Tie will therefore creates not one entire trust but ns many separate trusts as there are separate interests disposed of ny it the death of rancis Balms argued the counsel the trust would eease and the children come into possession ot the undivided one half As uming that the title remained in the trustees I until tbeebiidren reached the age ot 21 on the death of rancis Balms the trust with respect to each child would begin As soon as eacn at tuined majority he would lie paid his share so several trusts were to be dealt first two life estates then separate and distinct trusts as to the children their trusts in a possible interest which the children ot rancis would have in one hall so there were twenty three distinct trusts each independent of tbe other The will so far as the grandchildren are con cerned was the same as it separate trusts had been created for

conclusion I would say that 1 do not think that tbe majority left their em ployment of their own free will" The understanding ot the unionists was that Mr Morton invited them to come back uncon ditionally and that if they took no active meas ures to support the boycott against John Wagner co they would be permitted to retain their fealty to the union It has not yet been decided upon by tbe strikers formerly in Mr Morton's employ wheth er they will accept bis last proposition or not for in accepting it they renounce all allegiance to the Bakers' International Union until after the strike
