ALBANY March 4-The most important ac-
on Of the Of the Assembly tonight was its Ia
yorab!e votes In Committee OF the Whole, on the thira
Reform BILL which was ordered to third reading with
out opposition and without amendment III was pusueo
forward in the order OF bills on motion OF MT
Hammond, and will probably be passed to-mor-
row. Mr.. Kennaday OF Kings moved for the
purpose Of getting an explanation, 10 aiheho
the title, and asked whether, In the Sesung
In the people, the beginning OF SUITS OF ali the soe
money property provided for in the b the rgn's VI

Senator Johnson's specie payment BILL which provloes
that a contracts made after Jan l. 1873 shall be paya

There was stir Of genuine sensation throughout the
Chamber when Mr. Daily to question OF privilege
and charged that garbled of the Ffth-ave. pave
ment bill had been placed the files Of all the men,
bers and proceeded to show that the original printed
copy provided that the Company shoud keep the pave
men In perfect repair for ten at cost for clean
Ji,o, q pantn hp q
while the altered bill provided that the cost OF re-
pairs should not exceed AZ per cent per an-
num- and the cost OF cleaning q per cent.
Mr. DAILY said that ne should Ike to characterize TINS
transaction in the language deserved, and demanded
an explanation OF the alteration. Mr. Seward WHO IN
trodueed the b said that the whole thing was as new
to him AS Mr.. DAILY and had no doubt it could be ex-
pained from the fact that the original BILL it came
from the printers full Of and this may have
been an attempt them after tho adjournment
Mr Seward showed to some OF the members manu-
script draft of the bill made before its introduction, IN
which five per cent named the limit OF the cost OF
repairs the fact that the clause specifying rate OF
compensation for is entirely omitted from the
original printed bill to strengthen the theory that
this is clerical But there several curious
circumstances which may furnish clews to the Special
Committee for which Mr. Day asked. When the
bills had been placed upon membsrS hles only the
Committee of the Whole could amend them, and TINS
method of making corrections II they were corrections
suspicious to say the least Besides the pages had
not only added the bills to the files, but had re-
moved and mp the DID, Mr.. DAILY disclaimed In his
remarks the slightest intention of abiding to Mr. Sew
ard The Committee appointed by the Speaker
TO investigate the matter consists OF Messers
DAILY, 7. G. Campbell, and Hammond, Democrats, and
Messrs. Seward Alvord, and Hess. Republicans, WHO
will 10 doubt report speedily While 1t is not unlikely
that the whole affair will be shown to have been blum
der and trick, the Assembly is evidently in no
mood to tolerate any caIelessness which might make
amperng with legislation possible in the future Such
buuders may amount TO crimes
