Mr. .OULD moved for the appointment of
a sJ,ecal committee to consider the subject
CT establishing an insurance bureau, which
was agreed to. ,,.,., .,..s..5.. t.r.. -.
| Mir. HoLBRooK moved to reconsider the
vote by which the motion was agreed to,
| because the subj ,ct bad been thoroughly
considered and reported against at every
session since the war. .'..-
Judge OULD said it was important that
the reasons for the institution of the bureau
should be fully understood, and to relieve
| The Committee on Propositions and Griey-
| aIceS, be asked for a special committee. he
| thought the bureau would protect the pub
lie against wildcat institutions and cause
the return Of two millions Of capital now
on deposit 10 other States. s-.
Mr.. WILLIAMS opposed the bureau, because
it would supersede the deposit law, which
was the only protection of our people against
unsound insurance companies.
Mr.. WILLIAMS was interrupted by the ex'
ecution OF theJoint order, ~

sideration of The vote on the motion OF Mr..
GUILD for the appointment OF special com.

bureau was resumed. ..-- 49,
| MIR. NEELEY favored a reconsideration.
| This was a fight between the policy-hoders
and the insurance companies. The commit.
| tee had maturely deliberated upon the whole
subject, and were fully persuaded that the
deposit law was the safety of the people.
| Mr.. HoLBRooK said the solid home compa-
MES opposed The bureau, while home wild.
cat companies and foreign companies were
anxious to have it supersede the deposit-law.
Any company urging a repeal ofthe deposit
law have sinister motive. -, ....,....+ m
Mr.. OULD said the present bill was not the
same bill heretofore before the House, and
If 1t were, it surely ought not to be referred
| to committee known to be opposed to it.
The friends of this bill think there should
be an Insurance bureau as we'll as deposit
uw-or whether there be a dep0sit-laW or
not. . =.
