An animated discussion resulted or
the consideration of one recommends
ton of the law reform committee, that
providing for the examination Of pri-
waite banks the same as state and ma
tional banks. The committee report
which was presented by Senator Car
ney, at the forenoon session, started
the discussion but it was terminated
by the president for the time being to
allow George r. Peck, of Chicago. to

| March of the Constitution"
When Senator Carney was out OF
the general meeting, celebrating with
the executive committee as to the next
place of meeting, the discussion was re-
newed and vote on an amendment

was postponed. Those opposing the
recommendation claim they did so be-
cause 1t was outside the purpose of the
association, and those who spoke
against the association making this
recommendation to the general assem-
bly, claimed they were in favor Of such
a law.
When Senator Carney returned to the
general meeting the question was re-
opened and the matter referred to the
law reform committee to report at the
meeting next year.
Those favorable to the recommends
ton were former Attorney General
Mullan. Judge Plat and others, while
Judge Towner, j. H. McConlogue and
others spoke against it.
Other recommendations of this COM
mittee were adopted as follows: That
in criminal cases appeal be perfected
within six months after judgment; that
the court have the discretion to refuse
appointment Of a. non resident of the
state as executor, and If appointed he
may be required to give bonds, regard
less of the provisions of the will to the
contrary; that the expense of fees for
surety bonds for trustees, guardians.
etc, be allowed as part of the expense
of the estate or guardianship; that
in all trials of divorce cases where there
is no appearance of defendants. oral
testimony shall be taken by the official
reporter and made a part of the rec
ords, and the costs of same be part Of
