PRECEDENT IN BICYCLE Law.
Purchasers Right TO Remove Wheel
Before Payment Is Completed.

A case is penuIng before United States
Commissioner ,sIlei.rs, in .,cM IorK, winch
the lnstdlllns'nJ pla n, " no 40 not read lnuir
contracts carefully and abide by their
icf,Iis. he cdSt Is perhaps the more IN
tereSting rs it is the first for legal ad-
IuuIcatIun under. the ordinary Contract
for the sale OF bicycle on The INSTALL
msnt plan. The compiainants in this suit
IS the uicScle astncS a. oixGn ana + sttee,s
tnIs city, OF wnicn AIR J. 4. koyston is
manager.
In may last Mr.. Boise Edeling-who came
here from New York and was working
agency Ior the purchase OF bicycle. The
prospective purciiaserpaidthe the consideration
and the Ills, niontlly payment ana then
disappeared with the bicycle.
7. There was another gentleman who also
bought bicycle on very much the same
terms and he, too, disappeared. This latter
purchaser Is supposeu 10 be guilty OF a
deliberate plot To ueifaud, ina asmucn as the
manager has been informed that the pur-
chaser made Inquiries soon alter his pre-
hnInary payments as TO now The rnaciine
Could best be gotten to Russia. II is be-
lleved tnat neither the purchaser nor the
machine ever got that far and that both
will be gathered in now very shortly be-
tween Baltimore ana Pnilauelphia.
In the Edeling case, Mr.. Royston heard
that This panicuar client had gone back
10 New York. The manager went there
and employing detective set out to find
him. 1hey discovered him at his place of
residence on Cherry street, where he had
the wheel.
Mr.. hoyston told the young man that he
wauteu the machine. Mr.. Edeiing said
he couldn't have it, whereupon the de-
tective took both Linn anu the wheel, Mr.
Edeing, however, said that he intended
to pay for the wheel, but the manager had
reason to believe that the circumstances
warranted him in be lie wing tnat Mr.
Edeling did not intend to do any such
thing, ana therefore, he took the prisoner
before United States Commissioner Shields
The points Tor the coDsiD Grafton OF the
commissioner were the nature OF the con-
tract, and the intent of the prisoner to
commit larceny. The contract is similar
to that of most contracts for similar Sales
consideration is paid and then monthly
installments, which are Specifically stated
to be construed as rentals until the last
payment shall have been made when the
property passes to the purchaser.
There is also another imperative clause
In the contract to the effecttnat the machine
shall not be moved out of the District with.
ou. tie consent of the renter, or Purchaser
on the rental plan. Mr.. RoystOn show ed to
the court that this latter clause had Teen
absolutely violated and lie holds that the
fac of removing tire machine under these
circumstances constituted larceny
The commissioner, " lille he holus he pris-
oner, has these matters under considera-
tion. His decision will settle tie point as
TO whether Edeling shall he tried in New
York or shall be cent here for investiga-
tion by the grand jury. In the latter event

Tennis Plnyer.

the opening of tie District champion
ship tennis tournament yesterday, on the
Bachelors courts, was dis tinctly dis
appointing in every way. The attendance
was painfully small, the weatI Ier was damp
and disagreeable, and worst of all, only
one match was played out of the four
scheduled.
IL Is not known why the other contestants
failed to show up, and in view of their
general absence, IL was ueciucd that the
scheduled games should not 20 by de
fault, but be postponed until Thursday. The
number Of entries being so small, such a
course was quite necessary, in order to
assure an even passably successful tourna-
ment
The only match played was between
Dnscoll aud T. Wilson. 1t was easy lor
Driscull, and he won the two successive
sets without eSerting himself. The first
Set went 10 the Georgetown man, 6 to l.
The second set was Won, 6 10 ..
Although Driscoll was not pushed At any
tine, IL was easy to see that he was in
great form Those who watched his game
closely were unanimously OF the opinion
that Champion Davidson will have a hard
Tight 10 successfully defend the title
against the fast young Westerner His net
work was superb, aud it seemed simply
impossible to get bali past him. His
bacE-court play was equally line. and his
returns of several difficult balls were
brilliant
The Srealest interest in today's matches
is centerel in the one between Goegbegan
aud Driscoll. Gocgbegan is very strong on
net play, and lie displays great nerve at
critical points OF the game. BE defeated
