Liability of Mortgages.

A decision rendered by Judge
Carey, of the City Court of Balti
more, on Friday last, affirms the
principle that mortgage is respon-
sible for the payment of all ground
rents and taxes that may accrue on
mortgaged property, not only during
the existence of the mortgage, but
also for whatever amount may be in
default at the time the mortgage was
released. In the two cases before the
court the mortgagor sold the property
and the mortgages released the mort
gage to the purchasers. AS neither
the ground rent nor taxes falling due
between the date of the mortgage
and the day of sale had been paid,
the owner of the ground rent, to pro-
tect himself against a sale of the
property for taxes in default, paid
the tax bills and then sued the mort
gage for the amount of back gronnd-
rent and of the taxes SO paid. The
court held that the mortgage was
bound for both, and judgment was
rendered accordingly. 1t necessarily
follows that the same rule is appli>
cable to fee-simple property also, so
far as taxes are concerned, and that
even where clause in the mortgage
obligates the mortgagor to pay the
taxes. it does not release the mort-
gagor from seeing that the taxes are
paid, or from liability if the mort
gagor violates his contract. Taken
in connection with the movement
now on foot to tax mortgages. mort
cages may become very undesirable
species of investment. Careful per-
sons in taking mortgages doubtless
generally see to it that they cover
property of such character or as held
by such persons as make it moral
surety that the taxes and other prior
liens thereon will be kept duly paid
up; but under Judge Garey's decision
all parties are now plainly admon-
ished in the premises. Not only will
the mortgage have to exercis con-
slant supervision over the payment of
ground rent and taxes by the mort
gagor, but in the next place, if the
mortgage is to be made subject to
tax to the extent of the mortgages
claim on the property mortgaged,
apart from the fact of the double
taxation it might involve the mort
gage would find the interest on his
Investment so reduced that it would
lead him to put his money out to
other and more profitable uses. The
consequences would be that a multi
tude of mortgages, now outstanding
and overdue, would be called in or
foreclosed, and if money were put
into mortgages hereafter, it would
probably be by purchase in open
market for what they would bring.

rate Gov. Hamilton will be powerless
to effect the reforms he confidently
