ALBANY, Feb. % 1910.
Navigation of the Erie Canai-Col. Stone NOT the
Historical Minister, &c. SC.
The House today adjourned few minutes after
twelve. The arduous labsrs Of few days past, had
predsposed the members for little relaxation and
a motion to adjourn at that early hour, adopted
with great alac rty.
In the Senate, the bill from the Assembly prov i'd
ing for the raising Of half million of dollars to pay
the contractors the Erie Canal and to put the Ca
nal In fit state for navigation, occupied the whole
day. The merits OF the question were discussed,
very mpropery,as think ,on motion Of reference.
Mr. Van Dy ck moved the ordinary reference in such
cases, to the Finance Committee. MIR. Mosely sta
ted that the laborers the Canal were in state of
suffering for the want Of their pay. and he asked that
the bill be directly ordered to third reading. The
proposition opened the whole matter, and the de-
bate protracted until nearly two o'clock. The
bill then passed in Committee Of the W hole and
ordered to third reading. Ii will become law on
Monday next.
arises from the fact that the Canal Fund has been
deposited in Banks where II cannot be called for I'M
Iii the next July. The Manhattan Bank has S720
900 Of this fund.- and many other banks have smaller
sums. Col. Young proposed that, instead Of empow-
ering the Commissioners OF the Canal Fund to issue
Stock they should be directed to make drafts the
Banks payable in July, and sell these drafts to the
| best adv antagc.
Mr.. verplanck very properly replied that drafts
OF this kind would be at large discount in the pre-
sent depressed state af the Money Market and the
credit ofthe State would necessarily be degraded
| The Governor is undetermined who to appoint to

it is perfectly idle for Col Stone to make any further

and all public the subject, exaggerating his
historical researches, and euogiing his literary

| the Governors mind Is made up. Neither has John
O'Sargeant any chance. The Governor has sagacity
enough to see that the influence Of the Courier and

ments all made with eye to the main chance.

1t is not yet settled who are TO compose the Wa

HARRISBURG Feb. ~, lSiO
Passage of the Resumption Bill in the Senate of
PennsyiUania-Sereyity gifts Prorisions-Pros-
pect of great excitement in the Keystone State
Squaiiy all round.
The bill to enforce speedy resumption of spe-
Gle payments by the banks of this state which hen
in the House, called forth the opinion of the Gov
ernsr concerning it, in his notorious Special Mes
sage, has been under consideration for some days
past in the Senate, and passed its third reading to-
day in that body, after very warm and protracted
discussion, by vote of l6 to Il-one Wing member
voting for it,
The bill provides for the resumption Immediately
upon its becoming law and npon the refusal of any
bank at any time after the passage Of the bill to pay
specie for their notes. the Governor is required to
issue his proclamation declaring its charter forfeit
ed and to appoint commits sioners to wind up its af-
fairs, unless il previously appoint trustees for that
purpose Ii is also made Penitentiary offence ac-
companied by fine of $500, for the officers of any
bank to continue doing business after refusing to
pay specie for their notes; and should any of the
trustees be guilty of fraud enbc element il wind
ing up the affairs of any bank, they made liable
upon indictment and conviction, 70 imprisonment in
the Penitentiary for period OF than FIVE
years and fine equal in amount to the monies so
embezzled.
The bill is very different in it's principal features
from the one which came from the House, and will
be sent back to the House for concurrence in
the amendments. 1t is somewhat uncertain as to
the course ofthe House but things stand, the
amendments will probably be accepted, and the bill
receive the signature ofthe Govern-r.
bill to create General Banking Law has been
under consideration in the House for time, but
no decisive action has vet been had upon it.
may well state that some persons intimate
that the Governor will veto the bill, should it pass
the House, under secret agreement with the banks
and the Wing party, to be run again for Governor.
With the Governors veto in view, the bill cannot
pass into law by two two-thirds-but whichever
course is followed, extraordinary sensation will
be produced in this commonw ealth, and a revolu :.
ton in our politics, of some kind will be the
