DECISION RENDERED.
Judge Forbes Reviews the Hartford VS..
Brown and Taylor Case.


Brown and Taylor Case.
Judge Forbes has given his decision
on the petition of Frederick A. Har-
ford, against William A. Brown and
r. C. Taylor. The case came up for
first hearing in July, with Burton w.
Potter, counsel for the petitioner. The
last hearing was last week Monday
Brown and Hartford were formerly
partners in a drug business at the cor
ner of Grafton and Winter streets. Up
to last June, Brown occupied the store
alone, and then sold out his interest to
the present tenant, Elkund, and Har-
ford brought a petition claiming that
he and Brown still were copartners,
and that without his consent the lease
was surrendered to r. c. Taylor.
The case viii; probably go to the SUI
perior court. Charles II. Tatman has
represented Mr.. Taylor as counsel.
The decision of Judge Forbes is as
follows: There seems to me no seri-
Gus doubt but that w. A. Brown has
surrendered to the reversioner all his
rights under the lease. The fact that
Hartford allowed his cotenant, W. a.
Brown, to have the sole occupancy of
the demised premises and depended up
on him to pay the rent up to the time
that the latter gave up the lease to the
landlord, did not, in my opinion. make
w. A. Brown his agent to surrender
the interest of Hartford in the premises
for the remainder of the term.
1T is probable that the petitioner has
lost all rights under the lease. The rent
long due has not yet been fully paid.
The water tax for several years is still
unpaid. The conditions of the lease
have been broken and with the assent
of the tenant in sole occupancy of the
/ demised premises) the landlord and a
tenant claiming under him have re-
gained and still retain actual possession
of the whole premises.
Either the petitioner, Fred A. Har-
ford, and the reversioner, Ransom G.
Taylor, are tenants in common for the
remainder of the term, which expires
Sept. l, 1901, or the lease has been sur
rendered by one tenant and forfeited
by both. 1t appears, therefore, that the
shares of the tenants are uncertain and
in dispute, and the case will be removed
to the superior court, unless the petit
toner prefers to have the petition
simply dismissed so that he may have
his legal rights determined in a law
court

situation is unchanged. The supporters
of Newlands say that if he is not cho-
sen Stewart cannot be. and a deadlock
will follow. Clarke is still in the fight
and will give Mason run for the dem

the railroad, but Stewart is making his
fight on his silver record. In the as
sembly several petitions were introduce

til Monday, which will practically
make them of no effect The friends
