New If unfortunately lannon's for my
friend from New York, that, while the SEN
ate undertook to pass bill in obedience to
this report from the Court of Claims, they
came TO the conclusion that a doatte salaey
was 1fdalrfW, and they accordingly agreed
to strike cut one of these salaries before they
passed the bill.
Mr. UNDERWOOD. The bill referred
10 by the gentleman does not meet with the
objection he states but the bill which pass
ed the Senate in 1874 does not provide for
double salary 1t is as follows;
