LAW INTELLIGENCE.—(This Day )

COURT OF CHANCERY.
(Before the Lord Chancellor and Lords Justices.)
BANKRUPT PETITION-FOX V. HENDERSON.

Sir Richard Bethel', Q.C., appeared for the petitioner ;
and, in addressing the Court, said that be was happy to
state, for the information of their lordships, that thief
case was arranged. He hoped the arrangement wail
such as would meet their lordships' approbation. The
arrangement was—that the French company who
claimed to be ranked upon this estate for 160,0001., in
respect of shares alleged to be taken by Fox and Heir
derson in the French Railway Company, and which ' ,
was disputed in the French courts, was now reduced to
17,0001., and he now asked a decree, in the name of
Mr. Stokes, against the bankrupt estate for that sum.

The Solicitor-General (Sir Hugh M'Almont Cairns)
consented to thi-. arrangement.

The Lord Chancellor said he was gratified an arrange'
cent had been come to which was satisfactory to all
parties.

Lord Justice Turner assented.

Lord Justice Knight Bruce said that the question
Involved in this case was one of the most difficult that
could come before the Court.

Sir Richard Bathell-1 am. afraid your lordship dose
not wish that the point went oft'. (Laughter.)

ROLLS COURT.
JUDGMENT-WEBSTER V. BODDINGITON.

His Honour, the 19:ntcr of Cie Roils, in delivering
lodgment, said that the question raised in this cage
arose upon the cor,struction of the will of the late gr.
Boddington, and the question raised was whether the
limitations of the gifts bequeathed to the legatees, vie.,
to his sons and daughter, and their children, and bin
great grandchildren, were were not void from remote'
nes3. Lady Webster had the power of appointment
but declined to appoint. His Honour had no difficulty
with the first and second class of legatees—the children
and grandchildren—but the third class, the great grand'
children, were too remote, and could not be ascertained
in the lifetime of Lady Webster, and might not in den
time be properly ascertained after her death, so as to
make a proper distribution, therefore the gifts be'
queathed were void from remoteness.

_
His Honour declared Lady Webster executor under .:
the will, and costs to be paid ont of the estate.

This bankrupt was described as a merchant, doaler''
and chapman, of 29, Jewry-street, Aldgate, in the oitY

Mr. Lawrence supported, and put in several dee°.
meats proving that the peti(ioner hadibeen adjudicated
bankrupt at Constantinople, and that his estate there
bad been seized by the Court of Bankruptcy at that
place for the benefit of his creditors. A dividend b 4"
teen declared and paid there of about 3s. GI in the
pound.
Some questions arose upon Sampson's debt, and It
t
transpired that Levy bad acted in the capacity of glee..
in Constantinople for Sampson, and upon that person
becoming bankrupt Levy handed over to the creditoll
above 11,0001.
It was stated that some of the creditors who claimed
under this estate bad proved against the estate at COW
stantinople, and had received ss. 6d. dividend ; and 3
was a question now before the House of Lords whether
they coull prove against both estates.

His Honour said he did not see that the bankrupt WO
entided to petition that Court as he had nothing for th:
creditors, and not one farthing was handed over, an.,
the act said he must have 1501. This was not an OW
able estate.

Mr. Lawrence—lt is an available estate, and has been
distributed Cyan English tribunal.
(The case was proceeding when we went to press.)

POLICE INTELLltiraiswit.—(This Day.)

MARLBOROUGH-STREET.
THREATENING THE SECRETARY OF THE POLISH ASSO:
CIATION.—Joseph Kujazai, a Polish refugee, was charged.
before Mr. Beadon with using threatening language to
M. Szulzewski, the secretary of the Association for the
Relief of Distressed Pole-3.
The prosecutor said the prisoner came to him Wee
time ago and asked him to assist him with funds to 'eel
this country, the amount he required being 61. He tot
him he would lay the case bef,re the council, and he did
so. The answer of the council was that the funds leer",
extremely low, but that they would grant him 11. I,_°:
wards his travelling Expenses. Last Friday week 117,
brought him before the council, who said they could act
do more far him than for any other person. He said .
°
the time he was ill, and he was offered ss. more and -
ticket fur an ho-pital, but in a very sullen manner be
refused to take either, and every morning and evening
since the prisoner had c m3e to his place, calling hit° a
robber, and using threats towards him, saying be mast
A
have the 61., or he would see him (rosecntor) die ; 00'
as he was a man of determined and des rate character'
and he believed he was put up by others, he was afraid,
if he was not restrained, he would do him some serione
personal injury.
The prisoner, in defence, said he wanted to leave the
country ; he never asked for a ticket for the hospital, be
was not a beggar, and he wanted to know what he WO
to do.

The prisoner here produced a pamphlet, which the
prosecutor said was got up by the dis-atisfied Poles.
Mr. Beadon said the society had no funds left, and it
Was evident they could not do more for the prison!'
than they had done. Tne society hardly existed, 1"
funds being all expended. The prosecutor was only tba
secretary, and he must therefore be protected. If:
should therefore order the prisoner to find one surety
the sum of 101. to keep the peace.
