Important Banhrupt Dec,.,on.

RICHMOND, VA, Oct. 31.-In the Uni
ted States Circuit Court to-day in the cases
OF Geo. W. Dilland and others, bankrupts,
Judge 81. l.. Bond rendered an important
decision. The creditors obtained DEGREES
in the State Court directing the sale of Dill.
lands property. Afterwards Dilland filed q
petition in bankruptcy and claimed the
homestead exemption Of 81 900, which ex-
emption was allowed in the United States
District Court by Judge Underwood. The
creditors then carried the case before Judge
Bond by petition, and be decided the fol-
lowing points, which entirely reverse the
ruling Of Judge Underwood:
/. When suits are pending in State courts
before the commencement of bankruptcy
proceedings, if there be no suggestion of
fraud and no interests of general credit will
be prejudiced, the bankruptcy court ought
not to interfere with the Jurisdiction of the
State court.
2. When bankrupt has made deed of
trust to secure creditors, he is not entitled
to any exemption out of the property con-
veyed until the deed is satisfied or sdudged
fraudulent as to creditors by State court.
j. When proceedings in bankruptcy were
commenced before the passage of the Act
of March 8, 1872, the bankrupt is entitled
to such exemption only as is allowed by
laws existing at the time the proceedings
commenced.
4. The smendatory act, so far as it is de-
claratory of the Act of 1857, is void.
5. The rights of bsnkrupts and creditors
are fixed according to laws in force when
the bankruptcy proceedings commenced,
and no subsequent legislation can affect
them.

motion was created yesterday by Sheriff
Liddy in serving notice on sixteen different
life insurance companies in this city, suits
being instituted against them for an amount
aggregating not less than $2l7,5OO. The

their condition, and procure of the Auditor
a certificate authorizing them to engage in
business, and for every days neglect to OBJ
tain such certificate while doing business,
they are liable to penalty of $lOO. 1t is
