represented him.
Il did not intend nor assume he said. to
make any especial criticism Of the New York

method Of procedure II secure necessary re-

granted the charter.
"The charter was granted by the Legisa-
ture Of the state of New York. and not by Con-
Eress. and it should he amended. if it be
amended at ALL by the power that granted it.
Congress usually in such rnses. simply grants
