RAILWAT SPECULATIoNi4.—IN RE A. LANIELLB.—This
bankrupt was described as a merchant, having form, sly been
in busineva as a perfumer, receiving about 1,0001. a year, and
living like a gentleman He disposed his business for
about 1,5001., and then entered very largely into railway
speculatiew, being at one period,worth about 12,0001., but his
speculations ri suited in a very heavy lot. Tnis case was
before the court a short time since, urea aiplication for
certificate, and it was adjourned till this day, for the pur-
port of investigation, and more particularly ri sleeting the
proof of Mr. More for 6141. odd, being a bailee° of account
resulting out of railway speculation. The bankrupt's debts
and liabilities amount to about 10 0001., running over a Pe-
riod of about 3 ye®, and the assets appear en the balance-
sheet to be "property, 1621. 9.. Bd." He commenced
' with a capitol of 3,184. 14. Ild., and the loose, and ex-
p, nses amount to aboat 10.0001., the profits bring stated at
2851. 6s. 6J. Mr. More, who opposed, had hem, in business
as a spirit merchant in Liverpool, and in 1839 became bank-
rupt, but owing to some negligence on his own part he did
not obtain his certificate until July, 1845, at which period
he entered the Liverpool market as a sharebreker; and he
did not know what was the amount of his debut, or the divi-
dend, if any, paid under that bankruptcy. 110 was net a
sworn broker. He had not offered to withdraw his opposi-
tion upon payment of 3001.—Mr. Lawraisee, ou behalf of the
bankrupt, stated that the last item in the account between
the bankrupt and Mr. More, upon which the proof of
6411. odd, was now sought tube ma,* bore date the 11th of
Augutt. The certificate was dated the '2oth of July, and 21
'days was required for the certificate to remain at the Court
of Review. Therefore the *hole of these transactions upon
which the proof was made, took place at a time when
Mr. More was an uwertificated bankrupt. Under
thew circumstances he (Mr. Lowrance) must submit that
Mr. More was not entitled to prove.—After some further
discussion the proof was admitted for the full ;mount
claimed.—Mr. Snulte, a stock.broker, stated that he bad had
transac lons to the extent rf thousands of pound. with various
person., and that the bankrupt was the matt punctual of
any.-IJpon the part of Mr. Ripley, a stock-broker, an ad-
journment of the ease was prayed for. Mr. Ripley was a
creditor fur 5,0001., being the result of a love upon Birming-
ham and Oxfordshire share., occasioned by Emanuel Danielle,
who, it was stated, had represented his employer to be a man
of fortune, but had always reused to disclose hies name.
Upon going, however, to the of of the official assignee
(Mr. Edwards), a bond of Lord -entry's for 7,000!. being
mentioned In the bankrupt's proceedings, and the .ame
having been shown to Mr. Ripley, it was concluded that the
bankrupt, being the brother of Emanuel Danielle, was his
employer, and hence the attempt to prove against this
agate. The bankrupt denied having employed his brother in
any such transaction.—Mr. Lawrence object, d to an adjourn-
ment under such circumstances, and the court concurred.—
Mr. Bagley and Mr. lAwrance having been heard pro and
con, his Honour said that he did not con.ider that More
stood in the position of a creditor entitled to much (+your.
The bankrupt had stated upon a ffirmer occasion that More
would be unable to prove himself a creditor against this
estate, but it appeared to him (the commissioher) that he
was. creditor. Upon the last occasion, al.o, the bankrupt
stated that he had nothing to do with West Riding sisres,
hut it appeared that he had, and he now sought to excuse
himself by stating that he was merely an agent. The objection
appeared to be, that the baakrupt had been trading out of
his avocetien as a trader ; and it also appeared that ho hid
been speculating in that which a trader ought not. In order
to show traders that they were not to enter into illegitimate
speculation, incurring Irwes, and then enter into one or two
legitimate speculations, for the purpose of coming to this
court and being made tree of all the debts, the judgment of
the court was that the certificate be suspended for twelve
months, with protection from month to mouth.
