clause giving any protection whatever lo the County any then he wording of lie clause was dictated by the City people It was provided in the Hill that the County should furnish particulars of its claim against the city within one monlh after the passing of the Act if not so made the rights of the County should cease Any claim however was lo be adjudicated upon and determined by the On tario Railway and Municipal Hoard The County presented its claim in detail hut the Ontario Hallway Hoard decided in favor of the City The County appealed against the decision The City objected to the right to appeal from lheneoision the Ontario Railway and Hoard The right lb appeal was then argued before Judges and he judgment of the Appellate Division was delivered on the of March last in favor of the County It is a significant fact that not one of the Toronto papers published the judgment evidently abashed that the County representatives had the effrontery lo oppose their pet scheme of confiscating the County rights when the Legislators were in fa vor of the City proposition Chief Justice sums up bis findings as follows In my opinion bylaw giv ing to the minor municipalities the duty and right of repairs to Yonge Street does riot in any way effect he countys claim lo dam ages if otherwise entitled This does not effect the county in Re spect of its agreement with Radial It is not necessary nor do I think it proper to express an opinion as to which or all of the clauses of its agreement with the Radial Railway the county has the right to make oath That is a question of law and fact and ought not I think to be preju diced before the evidence which the county may offer is submit ted The appeal should be allowed upon its order of the Hoard set aside and the city per mitted to offer such evidence as It may he advised in support of its claim The city should pay the posts of this appeal upon tax ation In this finding Chief Justice and Justice Sutherland agree Justice added I may say once lhat in my opinion counsel for the appellant placed the rights of his client quite too low This agreement is validated by a stat ute but it is itself a statute of the Act makes the privileges and franchises there to created existent and valid he same extent and in the some manner as if set out and enacted as pari of this act Whatever difficulties might have been encountered bad the agree ment been simply validated there can no when we remember thai privileges and franchises are given by statute The history Street built from what Queen to Holland by in the earliest days of the Provinces bo valid by the statute the lat ter being as made part of the statute The- Legislature by the Act Geo eh gave lo the City of Toronto the power of expropriating the railway and all its real and personal property within the city but authorized the County of York lo make such claim as it might be advised against the for damages by reason of the exercise by he City of its powers so given The county made a claim as set out in the Particulars of Claim annexed hereto The grounds upon which the Board disallowed the claim seem lo be 1 that the county- has parted with its ownership of part of Street and there is no agreement in gross Both may be considered to gether I have already pointed out that the rights of the coun ty are statutory under the Act of 1897 They do not depend upon any of the highway al though of course they would not have been given were it not that the county the highway They are in gross in the sense in which the expression j used in the reasons for Judgment of the Hoard far as any of them becomes valueless by County alienating the street and ceasing lo be the owner such an alienation Is of importance but only In view of quantum The bylaw No referred lo does not more than make certain por tions of Street the pro perly of and owned by other mu nicipal corporations It does not operate as a conveyance of any thing than the fee and the statute under which the was passed does not in any way affect other rights of the county I can nothing hero which divests the county of the rights given it by statute There being nothing to divest rights of he county Board should not have dismiss ed the claim without giving the county an opportunity of calling witnesses unless it appears that in no view could a claim for money damages bo sustained The contingent right of county to lako the real and per sonal property of the railway docs not depend on he ownership of the fee or of any less interest in the land The statute of the statutory right to he county and any difficulty which might arise under the gen eral law from the fact that property or some of it an other municipality is avoided by this special statutory provision city takes part of the real and personal property of the rail way which on a certain Contin gency the county is to have his may be a serious loss the and should he compensated for The fact lhat bis loss is contingent
