Gross in a Dilemma.

About year ago Peter j. Gala CHER
leased a lot on Penn avenue to Alex
ander Gross. a junk dealer for Il period
of five years. Under the terms of the
lease Gross was to erect certain build
ings on the lot, paint them, connect
them with the city water and keep
them insured. and at the end of the
five years the buildings were to revert
to Gallagher
1t was also provided in the lease that
if Gross failed to observe any of the
conditions. the lease was to terminate
and the buildings become the property
of Gallagher.
Last week Gallagher began a suit in
ejectment to oust Gross, alleging he
had failed to comply with the terms of
the lease. One of the provisions which
it Is alleged he failed TO observe is that
requiring the insuring of the buildings.
Gross went into court yesterday by his
attorney, Ralph l.. Levy, and in answer
to Mr.. Gallagher's suit, set forth,
among other things. that it was abso-
lutely impossible for him to secure in
surance.
