COUNTY VS.. CITY.
An important Conference Held
Yesterday Afternoon.
Held

A conference of the Board of Mayor and
Aldermen, the County Commissioners and
the committee ON Public Buildings, was
heid at the Mayors office yesterday after
noon. Inc conference related to the origi-
nal terms under which the present city
building was constructed, and occupied by
the county and city officers. The county
mas always claimed that under the contract
the city Is forced to furnish such rooms in
the building as the county may demand for
tne use OF Its officers. The Entertainments
on the city side have begun and the city sees
no reason why, II such demands are to be
CONTINUOUS, the whole building cannot be
demanded In time by the county. The coun-
" gave the land to put the building on and
the city spent several hundred thousand dol
lars on the building. AS we understand the
matter' IL there is disagreement between
the county and city the matter may be left
to the arbitration of three persons, one to be
a Judge Oh the Supreme Court of Massachu-
setts, one to be selected by the county and
one by the city. If the city and county can
not agree on their two men, then the Massa-
chusetts judge will appoint them. The re-
suits OF the conference will be made known
at the regular monthly meeting on Monday
next

SUPERIOR COURT,
BEFORE JUDGE noNNEY.

FRIDAY-Charles P. Iugraham VS.. George
w. Pye. The plaintiff in May, 1888, leas ed
70 the defendant an individual half of Big
Wood Island in Phippsburg near Small Point
for $40 per year. The defendant occupi it
two years, and has made but one payment of
two dollars. This suit is for $3S, the balance
of the rent.
The defendant claims that the island be-
longed at the time sued for to the State of
Maine and not to the plaintiff The plain
by paying him rent. under the we'll known
principle of law, the defendant Is estopped to
deny the title OF his landlord. The defend
ant, however. claims that this principle /, not
applicable where the title was in the State.
Since this suit was commenced the defendant
has procured deed from the land agent of
Maine of the whole island. Decision re.
served.

SUPREME JUDICIAL COURT

The clerk of courts received the following
decision and rescript yesterday in Use be-
fore the law court for the Middle District:
H. Q. Blake, appellant, VS.. c. H. Clary
ct al.
ReScript by Judge Walton-An insolyent
debtors discharge. II fraudulently obtained,
may be annulled on petition of a creditor
who, at the time the discharge was granted,
had no knowledge of the fraud. But such a
petition cannot be maintained by creditor
who had such knowledge. His remedy is to
resist the granting Of the discharge. R. S. C.
20, sect 40. And the knowledge of an at
torney is the knowledge of his client
Rogers VS.. Palmer, 102 Z. S. 263. Sartwell
vs.. North, IA Mass, 1888; and see Bank VS..
Chase, ~ Maine, 226, where the authorities
are collated and the doctrine Of imputed
notices fully discussed.
1t is claimed t1Bt in this case the insolvent
DEBTOR settled with several of his credtor rs
and thereby induced them rot to prosecute
appeals which had been taken from a decree
granting him discharge aud that by these
means he obtained discharge in the APP
pellate court which he otherwise would not
have obtained and it is claimed that these
settlements were fraud upon the petit
tloners and entitle them to have tue die
charge annulled. There is 70 direct evidence
that these petitioners had personal knowl-
edge of these settlements before the debtor
obtained his discharge. But the evidence
leaves no doubt that their attorneys bad
such knowledge some nine or ten months be
fore the discharge was finally obtained in
the appellate court And this knowledge
was not obtained by confidential communi-
cations or other means which would justify
them in Withholding it from their clients. 1t
was obtained in open court. The insolvent
debtors counsel moved to have the appeals
dismissed on the ground that the appellants.
and others who had become parties to the
appeals, had been settled with; and they
produced and placed on file the written eyi-
dence of such settlements; and the petit
TONERS counsel were present and had knowl-
edge Of the proceedings, and took part IN
the discussions which followed. This
knowledge on their part, thus obtained, is
imputable to their clients, and bars the lat
ters' right to maintain their petition to have
the discharge subsequently obtained by the
debtor annnlled on account Of these settle
ments; and on this ground the verdict of the
| jury sustaining the discharge was clearly
right, and the motion 10 have the verdict sci
aside and new trial granted must be over
| ruled.
