Decision I'm bankrupt
cV.

8. Judge Nelson of the United States
Circuit Court, has lately made an im.
portant decision, involving the question
as 10 the effect Of proceedings in bank
ruptcy upon previous arrangements aud
transfers for the benefit of creditors
The case arose out Of the bankruptcy Of
James X. Place l. Co, Of New York
city. who having failed in November
last, made an assignment for the benefit
Of all their creditors, in accordance with
the provisions Of the laws Of the state
Subsequently they applied under the
bankrupt act to be discharged from
their debts, and an assignee IN bank.
bankruptcy was appointed. This assign
ce filed a bill before the Circuit Court Of
the United States. to compel the transfer
to himself of all the property which was
held by the other assignees, in order
that he aud not they, might divide it
among the creditors of the bankrupts.-
Judge Nelson, however, decided that.
the previous assignment being entirely
untainted with fraud, there was no pow.
er given by the bankrupt Law to take the
property Of the bankrupts out Of the
hands Of the assigness, in whose hands
the bankrupts had involuntarily placed
it for the benefit Of all their creditors.-
