THE CHICAGO DAILY TRIBUNE: THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 25, 1873. ——— 3 THE COURTS. The ¢ XKnickerbocker” troversy Resumed, Con« Avgumont Boforo Judge Drummond for a Roviow of the Caso. The Propristress of the Parker House After o Divorce, Yesterday’s Proceodings Defore the Supreme Court. Judgo Drummond yesterday was occupled with the argumont in tho case of tho Knfckerbooker Insurance Company. Yor the benefit of thoso who may not ro- call tho facts, o briof resume may bo of advantage, ‘Lo firat potition, and that on which the Gompauy wore adjudicated bankrupts, was filed Jao, 5, 1872, T'wo supplomental potitions wore filod,—ono by Bray. loy & Pattorson, and one by Allen & Mackoy, all alleg~ 4ng losses on polictes, oud also containing allegations of preferential payments to Goro & Sporry, The queation was declidod on tho first iwo potitfons, Allen & Mackey belug ollowed to filo thelrs aftorward, Tho orrors assignod are tho verdict of the Jury declding the Oompany baukrupt, cerlain oral intructions given to tho Jury which should Lavo bean in writing, tho ad- misslon of tho supplomental potition of Allen & Mackoy, and rofusal for s continuance, T'ho caso was Laken to tho Clroult Court, but refused o hoaring, on tho ground of wantof Surisdietion, It was thou taken to tho Unlted States Suprome Court, whioro a contrary doclslon was givon, and the cass i now brought back agalu for a review of the decision of tho District Court, which was rendorod over & yoar ago, ‘Mossrs, Grant & Swift and Storoy & King appear for tho Compsuy, Tho first ground of error relied on by thoma is, that tho Court wrongfully allowed tiio peti~ Hon of Allen & Mackoy to bo fled without proof first bolug mado of their claim aguinst tho Com- pany as croditors, Tho denial to thefr potition expresaly negatives tho fuct of thero belng any act of bankruptey committed, or of there belng anything dus 10 potitionors, and calls on thom to proveit, Nono- ticoof the flingof the supplementsl petition waa givon, and ‘the Company was refused » continnance, and was compoliod to go to trial immodistoly. This was orror, Tho last potition was fn tho naturoof s now petition, for 1t alloges new matter, Tho Com- pany, thorofore, woro entitled to the five days' notice, o8 required by law, and, therefors, » refusal wos & ground of urror, By tho Court—T think It would bo error if you wero obliged to go to trial befors tho timo allowod n the act. I dou't think this is & mattor of discrotion. By Mr, Swift—Again, thia supplomontal potition was not filed in accordauco- with Bection 43, of tho nct, which requires that o petiifon should be fllod ethor on the roturn day or on the adjourtiod day, of tho original petition, and this was filed on tho 18th of June, boing noither of those days, Tl next orror ls that tho Gourt taok from tho jury, triad, and declded the question whothor Allen & Mackoy wero creditors, By the Court—What {s the ssue made bofore the Jury 2 By Mr, Swift—The fssuo waa on tho indebtodness and ulno tho act of bankrup toy. The dental negatives tho assertion that suy act of bankruptoy has boon committed, or that it i fudo bied to tho petitionors in manuer and formos allegod. Allen & Mackoy must firat prove that thoy Liad a standing in Court. In thot tliing 1o bo prosumed 7 1t waa a queation on whialy o bad o right to go (o tho Jury, ss we had doniod their ollegation thereof, They wore also compollod to provo that petitionors Wero creditors, which is noga~ tived fn our dendal, A caso in point i3 in xo Skelloy § Bankruptey Regluter, 114, oy o Court=Tlsi wobld dopend on the for of leniul, b Br, Bwift—I think that {8 tho caso in the ordinary form’ of doutal, But even If it was not donied in the firat two petitions, it was oxpressly in tho donlal to tho petition of Allen and Story. Tho verdict and Jjudgment should Do aot asido be- caugo orul Instructions were given to tho jury con- trary to tho late practicoact to ssimilato tho practico in tho United States and Stato_Courts, in which Iattor written Inatructions aro obliged to bo given, ir, Black, on bobalf of the potitioning creditors, alleged in onswer to tho first point of M., Swiftyin reforouco fo a continuunco that the stipulation which proteuded to consent to a continuance, was drawn up by futruders, Mossrs, Fuller' & Smith who signed it haviug no right to represent Brayley & Putterson, whilo Dent & Black were really the attornoys, The act will not bear the construction that s potition must bo filed on roturn day, for a parly by collusion might moke tho roturn’ day after the six months in which it l4 nocessary to commence proceedings lid oxpired, and thon dlumiss Uio ot~ , and thereby throw out any other croditor, Maro- over, the dubtor was not ontitled to s continusice, if it adheres to the State practice, for it.had not filed an afllduvit on which to buso it The continuance is in tho discretfon of the Coust, ‘The petitions on which the caso waa triod were filed (hroe or five months before, and therefors the dobtor necded no fur~ ther ‘iime, and could not be surprised, s the pelition of Allen & Mackey made no figure in the case, The deblor walved ite right to fusisting on o five-day rule by Oling its plea aud demurrer, The Court also had a right to determine whether Al len & Mackoy should be allowed to prosccute. « The stetute allows o party on showing himself to the satis- faction of tho Courta creditor, 10 come in aud proses sute wheu the orighual creditor fuils o to do, It was not & question for the Jury, The Conrt was satisfied that they had a position whiere they could step in and tako the places of tho firat ereditors, and there was connequently no error, 0 Dankruptey Reglster, 200, [ answer to the objuction that thero was no proof of the potitiouers belug creditors, tho bill of oxceptions doca pot claim to Lo a complete lmnucmu of the evidence, aud it will boassumed that the yerdict was supported by ovidence, In the absence of proof to the contrary, Tho statute does not, in roply toanother objection that Gore & Bperry wero not charged os beiug creditors of tho Company, the statute does not require this, The form in Bump's Baukruptey hes been followed, and this waa sanctioned by the Supremo Court, In refercuce to the objection to oral instruetion, the coungel for the Insurance Company had asked an oral instruction, and it is fair to presume that tho instrac.- tions were given orally by consent, If the counsel for dobtor wishud an {nstruction givon they shouldfhave written It out and nsked the Court o to fustruct, and & refusal would have been good ground for error, The most importaut question is, Has substantial justicobeen done? It hasj but the delay the Com- iy lias obtatned Los beon very unjust. For nearly [wo yoara it s kept {ta polley-holdera from tholr duo, sud compelled them to sell thielr clalms, in many fne stancos, for s mere pittauce, whilo it hua done notbing but fight, The procecdings are for ull the croditors. Why, then, when ome lLiave potitioned for an adjudic sution, should others bo driven into court, at the risk 9f loaing all by the year-claune in the policy? The ad« judication should ataud without furthier delay. Tho casa was not coucluded seatorday, but continucd 1l this morning ; the main pointa of argument, how- pror, on both aidoa are given above, ‘DISCORD IN TME PARKEN TIOUSE, Mary A.
