IRISH LAND COMMISSIONS REPORTS

VIEWS AND RECOMMENDATIONS OF THE MA
JORITY AND MINORITY.
London. Aug. 3.-The report Of the Irish Land
Commission issued to-day. 1t Is big volume,
mostly filed with technical statistics. The Commits
sion say that the evidence before them showed that
the Irish rents, fixed by courts between 1881 and
1885, materially excessive The present
system. they continue appears to impede seriously
the administration of justice 70 the tenants OWING
the expense and delays. The courts generally
have denied the tenant share in the value OF his
improvements. although the judgment In the famous
case OF Adams agt. Dunseath declared him entitled
to the same. The Commission recommend that
the occupant be longer compelled 20 pay rent
on his improvements. all Of which ought to be re-
garded made by him unless the contrary be
proved. 1t Is urged that commission be appointed
al the session Of Parliament TO inquire further
into the subject.
The above matter is covered by the majority re-
port The minority report admits the GeslraDlllty
of lessening the expense Of litigation ana revising
rents in Ireland but contends that in the nNlng OF
the judicial rents the act has been construed In the
tenants favor.
