But the duties of a bankrupt are laid down by the statute, and so are his privileges. Section 9 (Comp. St. Sec. 9593). The order complained of exceeded the statute. If the bankrupt removes into another district, ancillary proceedings are open to his creditors. Babbitt v. Dutcher, 216 U.S. 102, 30 Sup.Ct. 372, 54 L.Ed. 402, 17 Ann.Cas. [255 F. 483.]
