SUP EIY-For what purpose
Sup. HowARD--For the purpose of correction; there
are a great many errors IN H.
Sup. ELY would ike the Superintendent OF the
Sixth Ward (Ioward) 10 point out the errors. have
fetched this bill a sample and my remarks upon Il

sal wiz have they done II why have they allowed
tnis sc for The Interpreter
SUP. EIr-I saio we have allowed for interpreters
but pot for stage farce.
Sun. WAERMAN-Tbey set out with the principle
tiat ibey cannot allow anything but the per diem
TO the statute but they have allowed for the
inserurtiers | would like for the gentleman ON the
ard fElx1 n kIow that the

Interpreter think money for these services Is very

tbese Marehals have Just much right to allowance
for copysis for interpreters The charge IL not for
tLe Msnhas own services, but for the services of an
Interpreter The next item in this bill for stationery.
Here IL chargeof$2 so for stationery. The Committee
cut on 80 cents and have allowed 81. Now In this
they cannot screen Themselves under the statute for
this IL II be legal to allow s2 it is equally legal to
allow 81 so for stationery. suppose they do not
know anything about il but by guessing, and there
fore tbey put their guessing in opposition to the oath
Of the Marshal. We have the oath of the Marshal
that be expended s. So yet the Committee pare him
OF to s. This close cutting might do in Wall-st.,
but il IL altogether out of place here. The next item
is for incdobtals and there is note attached explain
ing thst it s for railway fares Now by Law they
have lust ~ much night TO be allowed for railway
fare as for employing interpreter or copyis and
vet this item ia cut of. They caunot s9elter them
selves the proposition that by law they have no
right to allow il. II they allow one thing beside the
ter diem surely man who has to ride five or six
mikes and back day ought 10 be allowed his ex-
Fences. Now | know that this bill belongs 10 as

example of all the Others
Sup. HEBRICK-Ihe allowance for stationery was
Fixed in this WAY In oTdertO get at what fair to al
low fOT aionoTy, my colleague Ely and myself have
consulted with The Marehas-some Of the most intel
hgentIas TO hsw much stationery by any possibility
could DC used. One gentleman, VINO is as intelligent
any of the Marshdls said he did not how uuder
Coos heaven man could spend more than 81 80. |
lie bought 40 account book for which he had paid rs
cents, BEETLE of lux and some pens aud THE all
he had needed. Yet some men had charged much !
SlO, and came to the conclusion that such men
tad charged too much. We therefore agreed to make
70 rule 10 allow - Tor stau0ntry wherever 30 much
vas charged. and wherever more was charged TO cut
Al down TO that AMOUNT. In the case referred to by
tile geuilemon from tie Twelfth Ward, (Wakeman,)
90 80 happened TO be charged, aud this how hap
pened thai 50 cents deducted from the account.
IL was in order to keep to the rule throughout and
not from any penurousness to 80 cents, or for any
invidious distinction. AS TO railroad and omnibus
fire we did not think il ought 10 be allowed
Sup NAKENAS-DO you not think that when q man
Las 10 90 or miles he ought TO be allo sc railroad
fare IL ought TO be allo scd them. an not going
to oe 60 refer this report but if the gentleman from
the Sixth Ward will allow me will move TO strike out
That portion Of the report which makes the amounts
which the Committee propose to give, the full amounts
which they can c.aim-whch requires them to sign
receipt in toll after receiving the amount agreed upon
by the Commiitee-the portion uclosed in brackets in
tue report
Sup. HowARD-I withdraw my motion in favor of
the one submitted by the gentleman from the Twelfth
Ward
Sup VooRHIs-Tho gentleman from the Twelfth
TO think 81 day paid to these men as nothing.
would ask the gentlemen Why he does not insist on
the Sixth-ay. Rsihoad Company paying their men
more than 12 sbilings day. Why should the City
Of New-lork pay - day when Company can get

settle rly own. give the Committee great credit
Tor the manner in which they have made this report.
Some Marshals have not sent in their bills nj all II we
allow for these large bills without investigation other
Marshas will lay back ami send IN great bills too.
am for the fifty men whose bills iepor'ed being
paid forthwith. | have no doubt every honest and
Intelligent Marshal will take the money.
Sup WAKEnAS-What with this clause in the re-
port.
Sup YooRHIs-Yes. with that clause in. If we do so
have no doubt those who hang behind now will want
to have the credit of sepdug in such bills require no
alteration Ia the judgment OF the Committee.
Sup. BKoNN-l do not suppose that there Is more
than SOS difference between the report OF the Commit
tee and the original amount OF the bills sent in. There
= no law authorizing the payment OF the incidentals,
and that Il why those were striker Off
Sup WAKEsAS-All am asking lie that these Mar
ehas have the opportunity Of asking for more compen
eation when the Legislature is In session. do not
want them TO be required 10 give receipt in full and
ufterward 10 apply to the Legislature for more.
Sup ELY--lt is not our wish that the Marshals
should have 10 approach Legislature like tina, OF last
year. The Legislature that will meet next Winter
