NOVEL POINTS OF THE LAW.

An important decision by the Court OF
Appeals as to the right of foreign Con
suls to administer the estates of aliens
when they have next of kin in this
country who would be entitled to letters
OF adm nistration under the laws OF New
York has been handed down In the mat
ter Of the estate Of Cdrmine d'Addmo
III which the court rcvcrscs a decision
OF the Appellate Division, Fourth De-
partment. The deccdcuts heirs were a
wife and child in Italy. but he had Il
brother in New York state. The Ital-
ian Consul got letters of administration.
and the brother in New York applied
to have tn" letters set aside and granted
to him. The decision In the case de-
pended on the Interpretation Of a treaty
between the United states and sweden
In 1911. under which the consular ofli-
Ger Of Sweden is to be appointed adj
mnistrator of the estate of native
of that country dying here. Since the
Italian Government is entitled under q
treaty of 1873 to the same rights as
Sweden the court considered the treaty
with the latter country and held that
foreign Cunsuls are only eligible as adj
ministrators when there is no one with
PRIOR right under the local law who
Is competent or willing to act The court
\ holds that the treaty does not supcrscdc
the local law aud confer upon the for
egn Consul paramount and exclusive
right of administration. The tiers In
/ the dAdamo case are accordingly re-
voked.
