Step-by-step explanation:

A special committee worked out another compromise, Congress would have to ban the slave trade BUT not until 1800. The convention wanted to extend it to 1808, a final major issue confronted the delegates. Southern states wanted the other states to return escaped slaves.

I really hope this helped you:) and Its my fault if you get it wrong.
