To the Editor of The Chicago Tribune? 8 Asamember of the Committee appointed to revise tha rujoa of the Board of Irade, I have been in- terealed, amused, and emazed in reading the discus- salons and comments upon the report of the Commit. teas they have appeared in ‘fine Tntnuns, particue larly the comments upon the proposed rules affecting tho rights of buyers of property, Whilut certain Tiembere object to the liberality of the privileges al- lowed purchuscra, it aeema thero are others who thiuk purchasers ore not sutticiently protected, On refers ence to the report of the Committoe, It will be found that the proposed rules provide that, in cane property. bought Ja not delivercd aa coulracted, ho purchaser may exere so one of thro rights, Mo may (1) consider tho contract forfeited, (2) demand nectticment of tho contract, on the basis uf tho aver- age murket valuv of the property on the day of matu- of the contract, or (3) hu may purchase the prop- ty on the market for account of the aviloe batoro L o'clock of the next burloves day, what moro Now, ean tho purchaser desire? The common taw will not give him more than 13 provided above, but the pro- posed rulea yo further, and provide thatthe buyor inay call upon the sellor for nisrzins that will instre the falllinent of tho contract, or for the paywent of jurt damages for non-fulfillinent, The difference betwen the proposed rules and thove now ta forco 1s that Under tho latler the aellcr can manipulate and sell down tho market far below the legitimate worth of to praperty ou the dyy of tuaturity of contracts #0 aa to 1nuko a low average market aud thin avoud payment of duet deruages upou defaulted contracts; whereas the propowod rules iuske 11 ucumbent upou tho Comnilt- teu of Arbitration tn their calculations arriving at an avernge market to discard such farce of Qctiticus yalee, or in other words the Comuittes must construe tho rulce as intended to secure justics and equality in trade, and their deci. ‘sons must be iu conformity with the laws of the land, From thiw it would sevus that those who dud fault with the proposed rules, fur the allegod reason that ‘buyers are net protected, want the privilege of dictat~ Jug their own terme of settlement of contract, in leu of buying the property in for account of soller or uf accepting Just aud reusountl gos, as tho law of the land cutitle them to, It may however, that the fault-Audors sre those who wish the rules x0 changed that they, a8 buyers, will always be guaran. feed 4 profit on thelr purchases, and who thinks party selling for futuro delivery has uo rights that a buyer, or tha Gommuttce of Arbitration, or the Board of ‘Trade, ia bound to respect, Hut, really, Lda not bse Nuvu that even Warpale, Whoever he is, Uare advocate such a doctrine, ou, PROVISIONS.
