TIE nANKnu1'r LAW, THE nEsuxrT1oN ACT,
AND THE NATIONAL CURRENCY.
.fptrtal Ds.pdirA 10 TIE Tribune.
MILWAUKEE. Aug. 2e.-Ths fifth proposition
waa the further consideration OF the Bankrupt
lar. This WAS submitted by tho Philadelphia
Board of Trade. and Mr.. Allen, Of that city,
rosu to speak, but was interrupted BY motiun
TO take huif an hours recess. This wns, bow
ever, Withdrawn.
Mr. Allen then said shat TIM existing Bank
supt law had proved failure, and that the tuel-
ness public were favorable to change In the
system. lie thought, however, that they should
not ask Congress to rcpcal the preseutlaw with
out suggesting what they wished embediel In
tho new one. Tho Supreme Court Of tAc United
States llad rendered u number Of decisions on
points In this law which he, as layman, could
not understand, He offered tho following rcso-
luton:
kfsolr<d, That the Natlona! Hoard 0! Trsde
!cspcefnlly ssk .he Congress- Of The United States
consideration ths BANKRUPT law Of ths Tnited
States, with d view Ut submitting such amend.
menta AZ they may deem best
Mr.. Miller, Of New York, seconded the rcso-
luton.
Mn. norris. or aosroN,
suggested that tho resolution should be mado
,norcdefiuitc In regard to tlc 4uestion Of repeal
lug thu e1ia,inE law.
Gu motion Of lii. Gauo the last clause was
omitted.
alr. Buchanan thought tho resolution should
be further modified by inserting tho words IA
commission representing the business interests
of the country"
Mn. ALLEN, or MILWAUKEE,
thought this WIS dodging the question. Con-
grcss contained sulilcacncy OF business men to
Judge on such subject, a.,l It was lot likely
that they would be willing to delegate their
powers to anv such commission az that pro-
posed. lie believed that the law waa fllcl With
evil, and he Ind hoped that the Boarl would
have taken some more delnitc actiou tn the
matter.
Nh. M'IAREN, or MILWAUKEE,
moved that the resolution be referred to q COM
mIttgc to consider and report tu the Board some
specific provision on the subject.
MI. n4RRox. or NEW YORK,
considered that tho subject was Que Of the most
Important brought before the Board, and hoped
that It would bu fully ventilated. lle lid not
think that they could get ths law repealed. but
thought notifications aul amendments could
be introduced.
Mr. Allen did not tLiuk reference To CON.
mIttee would do any good. a. the session was
to be shurt. An attempt had been made to re-
form ths old law, but 1t was found that 50
many different decisions had been made under
It, aul 30 suanY amendments wuse needed, that
1t was Judged bcst that tho law be repealed.
lie hoped tho matter would be EefeEred, II It
wcro referred at atl, not 10 = committee but to
the Executive Council Ut the Board.
