Mr.. LYONS called up resolution relative TO money

Court House He said il had been suggested that the

and be moved 10 40 amend
Mr.. BUcKliAS moved a substitute as follows;
That aeommi,ee Of ve be appointed who shall De en-
ryi.ors OF the City Of on matters pertaining he
building the Court House in the said City OF NewYoTk
and the said to have fall power TO examine al the

and take testimony the proceedings OF sald boad
in all matters pertaining 10 the erection, OF finishing and
furnishing the Hon,e and that ssid committee
port . this House without delay.
Mr.. j. l.. PARKER wanted some reasons Tor ASKING
the New York Supervisors 10 report 10 the House, he
did not know that had the power 10 compel them 10
do and If such was the case be wanted more reasons
for the proposition.
authorizing the erection of Court House in New
York CITY and that e. OOO0 600 had been appropriated
since the appropriations had been made, swelling the
sum TO So 100 900 lie said he could prove that so coo
in commission had been paid to secure those appropra-
tons IL time that the cause for these enormous
expenditures explained and he satisfied that
could only be done by appointment Of a special COM
mittee authorized to send for persons and papers.
Mr.. GOODRICH moved to refer the resolution TO the
Committee on Cities.
Mr. BUCKAAS vas opposed TO such reference he
doubted whether fhe Committee on Cities was com
posed Of that kind of talent that would dive down into
the contracts and ferret out the rasces connected
with this matter There were TOO many things TO in
yestgeie for u standing committee TO attend to. A
special committee should be appointed to thoroughly
investigate and yentate the whole subject.
AR WEED thought that sufficient facts had not been
brought TO the attention Of this House TO warrant the
appointment OF a special committee. The Committee
on Cities the proper reference at present.
Mr.. CURTIS said that the Supervisors Of New York
were non partisan Board composed equally of Demo.
Gratis and Republicans. This Legislature should not
act upon hearsay He referred 10 the recent srragn
ment Of other New.York officials and said that il had
resulted In perfect farce. The charges against the
New York officials had thus far resulted in nothing and
IL useless for this House ~ spend time and money
u similar crusade against the Superyors of the City
OF Nev-York. Until something definite and specific
was established the Legislature should not take the
action proposed He moved to lay the subject the
table.
