LANDLORD AND TENANT.

leases, Warning. A tenants interest
ia property may be levied upon oy MS
creditors.
Away back In 1877, there was passed
by the English Parliament an act that
became known az the statute vi
Frauds. The purpose of the act was
TO preyent fraud in connection Win
contracts, making it necessary that
memoranda in writing be SHOWN
signed by the person who IL was
claimed had madea contract, IN oroer
that he be held on it. This was per :
hans one of the most imporbSnt acts
Of legislation ever passed by legis-
lative assembly. So important and so
excellently drawn was 1t, 1t has been
adopted often times In its original
form by nearly every state OF the
United States.
One provision Of the Statute OF
Frauds related to leases, 1t making
all verbal leases void, except where
the leases were for term not exceed
ing three years wnereon the rent
reserved amounted to two-thirds OF
the full value of the premises. This
today is the law In New jersey, Mary
land and South Carolina.
In Indiana, PennsylYania and North
Carolina, verbal leases for term not
exceeding three years, are valid, with
out,fegard to the rents reserved,
Verbal leases for one year are de-
clared valid 10 Alabama, Arkansas
California, Delaware, Illinois, Iowa,
Kentucky, Michigan, Mississippi,
Rhode Island, Tennessee, Texas,
Virginia aud Wisconsin. In the
States of Massachusetts,, Missouri,
Ohio, Maine,s Vermont and New
Hampshire, no verbal lease is valid,
other than lease at will.
In Connecticut, ne lease for term
oxceedinga year Is valid, except as
against the lesser, or unless 1T Is In
writing and signed by the lessor In
the presence Of two Witnesses ana
acknowledged.
Now, where a verbal lease 10 made
for 3 logger period than is permitted
by the statutes, the tenant cannot
sue the landlord for not letting him
into posse ssion, nor can the landlord
sue the tenant for rent, the tenant
not having taken possession, but II
the tenant passed into possession
under the lease and pays rent, 1t is
held in all the states, excepting Maine,
It's, Missouri, Ohio, Yer
mont and New Hampshire that the
tenancy becomes tenancy from year
to year.

In other words, the lease is not al

Of the property. Any one who takes
it by buying it, getting it on mort

A lessee's rights may be sold on

OF his creditors. Then, too, unless
there is a provision prohibiting it, the

 Conn was another judge of election.
 The trouble arose over the county election. Wellington insisted on being present at the count of the ballots. and in an argument Wellington is said to have drawn revolver and began shooting. According to the story told to tie police, Conn rushed out of the polling place, secured shotgun and began firing. The first shot fairly rid dled Wellington with buckshot.
 Wellington kept on firing until he dropped. and when the smoke of the battle cleared away Cooke was found on the floor desperately wounded, bullet from Wellington's revolver hay ing pierced his side.

Oyster Bay Commissioners Tear Down
 Piers and Stone Walls.

Oyster Bay Commissioners Tear Down
 Piers and Stone Walls.
 OYSTER BAY, N. Y, Aug. 3.-The Oyster Bay board of highway commits sioners, commanding force of twenty five Italian laborers technically de moiished peirs and stone walls ob- structing what is known as the shore road, which skirts Sagamore Hill and Is favorite equestrian path of Presi- dent Roosevelt.
 The stone walls were on the estate of Lewis c. Tiffany of New York and the peirs on the estates of J. West Roosevelt, George F. Maxwell and Frederick L. Coudert Sections of the piers only were removed in each in- stance to afford ground for legal ac- ton. The Tiffany walls the commis- sioners found had been removed when they arrived, but they took the neces- sary steps to make themselves re- sponsible for the action. The residents of Laurelton had accomplished the demolition during the night.
 The movement to restore the water front of Oyster Bay to the town is backed by decided public sentiment. In the year 1G77 what is known as the Andros patent conveyed in fee simple to the town of Oyster Bay all land between high and low tidewater. One hundred years ago the shore road was declared highway by the Oyster Bay board of highway commissioners.
 The road was surveyed sixty-six feet wide and followed the high tide mark along the shore. Gradually it has been encroached on. The piers which were destroyed crossed the road, as did the stone walls.

 In Cronstadt the population is mo mentarily expecting the appearance of the rebel fleet.
 This morning there was glow in the heavens in the direction of Cronstadt. but it was later found out that it came from fire on the mainland.
 Three other fires were raging at the same time, one on Vasilli Ostrov and two in the direction of the Narva gate, near the Baltic railroad station. All are believed to be the work of revolu- tionists.
 A late dispatch says that military disorders have broken out at Revel.
 General Markgraffsky, chief of the gendarmerie, was shot and killed by revolutionists at 0twock, a summer re- sort situated about twenty miles from Warsaw.
 An unsuccessful attempt was made to blow up the headquarters building of the police at Warsaw. It was frustrated by the discovery of the in- fcrnal machine. which had been hidden in a laundry basket. because of the clicking sound of it's mechanism.
 Martial law has been proclaimed at Cronstadt and in the Donets basin, the center of the mining and smelting fn- dustry.
 Although the mutinies at Sveaborg have been ended and the one at Cron- stadt has been practically put down. the outlook is still very black. The revolutionists. whose hands were sud denly forced by the premature rising at Sveaborg. are apparently undaunt- ed at these initial reverses and intend to persist in their programme of call ing a general strike tomorrow or Mon day.
 The crew of the Russian cruiser Asia, which was sent to Abo. has hoisted the red flag. The vessel has left in the direction of Sveaborg.
 Grand Duke Nicholas received message shortly after midnight saying that the loyal portion of the crew of the cruiser Pamyat Azova had made prisoners of the mutineers and turned them over to soldiers on shore.
 One of the leaders of the resolutiou- ists with whom a representative spoke last night boasted that the word had gone forth and that fire and revolt would spread to the corners of the empire. His closing words to the cor respondent were. Now watch Revel. Riga and Libau-
 The news of the mutiny on board the armed cruiser Pamyat Azova of the Esthcnlan coast Is fraught with enor- mous possibilities.
