ALBANY, May .. 1878
Attorney General Scboonmakcr is evidently thor
ouenly in earnest about reforming AL abuses in tho
matter of receiyerships OF corporations. In
sation tonight he sad he could with those
who ind fault with the Hepburn Insurance bill.
Tho origin OF tho measure ana It's history
policy holders ana not in thu, OF receivers or ON
Gals In tho carly days OF the session several bills
were introduced tho provisions OF which wcro more
or less inconsistent and the Hepburn bin was
suit OF an effort 10 consolidate all these
ono which would be simple and enforceable. Tho
hepburn bill proposed to dchnc clearly the
manner OF legal proceedings taken behalf
OF tho State, either by tho Supcrint cndcpt OF
Insurance by receivers and secure speedy as.
ccrtainmcnt Of the vsuo of the OF companies
and distribution OF them at the proper tme in tho
interest OF the policy holders Tho eleventh section
OF tho act OF 1858 fatally ambiguous, and OF
purposes OF Hepburn's bil remove this am
bguty to g;vo the State tho right OF priority
suits In the character Of tho guardian representa-
tivs OF all investors.
DEFECTS OF PRESENT

OF tins character arc seriously embarrassed, and
penses greatly increased by multitude OF proceed
ings initiated by claimants with conflicting
Vows and representations matters OF law aud Of
TACT. The Hepburn bill, tho Attorney General SAID,
not propose 10 deprive any OF
the hight to sue. but simply to give
tho state priority In the courts
10 tho extent OF being first heard as tho common
representative Of all claimants In this respect the
provisions OF section Il Of the bill good
OF their dcGnitencss, which merit shared by
bill IN relation TO banks, which would probably be
considered MIR. Sehoonmsker said that hts reluctance
to speak In relation TO pending legislative proceedings
this casa overcome by the gravity OF the sub
jcct and by tho propricty Of his removing misapprc
tensions In the pubic regarding bills OF great
interest to all the people OF the State Al tho
time he sad that tDese expressions OF opinion were
thorny.
