CHANCELLOR DECIDES cHGswoLD CASE.
Would Not Interfere TO Prevent Trustee Prom
EvictlBg TeHsBt Who Had a Term Lease.

A decision was handed down by
Chancellor Nicholson, on the petition
of Messrs. Hope and CIough, trustees
of the estate of John l.. Boyd, an in
sane person, asking that two-years.
lease of farm belonging to lunatic,
which had been made by a former
trustee, be delivered up and cancelled.
The Chancellor, ill a lengthy opinion,
reviewed the English precedent and
commented on more modern decisions.
He showed that the trustee of luna
tic under the laws of Delaware, had
no power to make lease in question
was as void as would be patrole lease
for term of years, but like parole
lease for term of years, it operated
as a renting from year to year, the
tenant being in possession under the
terms of the lease, those terms beiI g
fair and reasonable. That the Chan
cellor would not interfere in such
case to prevent the trustees from evict-
ing the tenant at the end of the year
after due notice, as they were entitled
by law to do, it not appearing that
the tenant had made any expenditures
on the faith of the lease, so that it
would be unjust and inequltable to
evict him. 1t followed from the con-
clusions that he would not order the
lease to be delivered up and cancelled,
but merely declared it to be invalid
and of no avail as a defense to dis
possessry proceedings becoming neces-
sary. In the event of such proceed.
ings becoming necessary, the Chancel-
lor would take such steps that might
be necessary to render his decision
effective.

Over So, 100000 will be realized by
the tomato growers along this branch
of the Pennsy lvania Railroad this year,
notwithstanding the prediction that
the crop would be failure. 1t will
yield two tons to the acre above the
average of ten tons. Weather has been
warm aud favorable to such an extent
that it is estimated that a million
baskets of fine fruit will either be
thrown away or left on the vines to
rot, the capacity of the factories having
already become overtaxed. Numerous
factories and canning establishme nts,
although overtaxed with raw material
and orders, are legislating against
negro help. A majority of the factories
are employing Bohemian or foreign
labor, but the Rising Sun factories
have taken only white laborers and
ruled out the negro helpers.
