the debt becomes due. — Salmon v.
Clagett, 180.
An injunction to stay waste, there being
no then depending suit to try the right,
dissolved on the coming in of an an-
swer which denied the trespass and
alleged that the acts complained of
were done on his the defendant's own
land.— Stewart v. Chew, 441.
WHARF.
The city collector of wharfage may be
directed to keep a separate account of
the wharfage for the use of certain
wharves until the right to them can be
determined.— The Wharf case, 361,
367.
In all public ports there are rights affect-
ing commerce, internal government,
and private properly, by which the title
to and use of a wharf therein must be
controlled, 371.
No wharfage can be allowed which con-
travenes any congressional regulation
of commerce, or the free intercourse
and equal rights secured by the federal
constitution, 371, 374.
Wharfage or anchorage may be charged
|
for the use of any place held as mere
private property to which a vessel may
come, 375.
A wharf in a public port is a kind of
highway, for the use of which, after it
has been once dedicated to the use of
the public, no toll can be charged, un-
less allowed by the Legislature, 375.
Wharfage where allowed must be reason-
able, and when fixed cannot be en-
hanced, 374.
Where each of the litigating parties
claims a right to wharfage for the use
of a public wharf, for the use of which
no toll can be demanded, they must
both of them be perpetually enjoined
from collecting whariage, 380, 384.

sonal estate, when proved and lodged

der special circumstances. — Randall v,
Hodges, 477.
A probate cannot be granted here upon
a copy of a will from another state,
481.
