in deprccatng the premature publication and trusted
the wishes of the committee would be attended to
and acted upon.

chase Of Southern drafts. Mr.. Desfeld said he
would discount the paper on those terms have men
toned.

field, sent in to the bank in the usual manner for dis
count
Ans~er.-It was presented directly to Nr. Della

usual manner
Answer-we made frequent offerings to the Board
about that time, which they declined doing. don't

Questien-why did you apply for draft on Savan-
nah was II under belief that II would AID you in
obtaining the discount, because you really wanted
funds on Savannah
Answer did net want funds on Savannah. I
had reason suppose l cesld not get IL otherwise,
having several times made offerings in the usual
way unsuccessfully for discounts which had not
been done by the Bank 10 the amount we wanted
When made one Of those applications, Mr.. Dela6eld
might have supposed that wanted TO remit TO Sava-
nah as I applied Immediately to him for draft on
Savannah. l made no explanation of the matter to
him Ii was not necessary that | should do so. I
had asccrtaned on what terms eould obtain IT, and
on what terms could dispose OF il. did not think
II worth my while TO communca,e with him on the
subject. l made an application for draft on Sava-
nah but once.

sed that you wanted draft on Savannah ts remit at
the time yos made application to him for such draft
Answer-We had made remttances through the
Phenx Bank TO New Orleans for considerable
amounts and Mr. Dela6cld might possibly have
supposed that wished to remit 10 Savannsh; but
presume ne had no other reason 10 supposcso.
The question was again put by Mr.. Foote By the
direction OF the Committee Of the Board of Trade IN
more explicit terms, and being objeci cd 10 by NJ.
Jay, II was overuled by the Commissioners.
After some further discussion the question was put
and M Bailey said, the weight OF my oeiei nss
Mr. Delafeld might have thought wanted the srsu
for remittance We had received large iaciIiucs ron
the bank. The paper disccunles by the BANK nae,
however, never been Offered. The same offerings
