ALBANY, March 90 1870
The bill to empower the Canal Board take up the
thread of investigation dropped by the Canal Commits
sion finally passed the Senate to-day The republican
side appeared bent overlooking the bill with
amendments as to make practically useless, for
better than deprving Governor Tilden of any
share in tho prospective glory the Board may in
its campaign against canal corruption Mr. Cole
offered amendment that wisely failed Of adoption, TO
make the taking of testimony tedious and cumbrous
that the investigation OF fraud would be like hunting
for needle in bundle of hay The bill passed. with
the fourth section enabling committee Of the board
to conduct the investigation stricken out The purpose
OF this amendment to prevent the possibility of Two
members of the board who the late investi-
eating commission from being u majority OF the sub
committee of three to whom it supposed the work
OF investigation would be conhded.
vIRruoUs INDIGNATION.
There several very gentlemen In the AS
semby this year. of whom think that is out
rage for any newspaper crcise the doings of any
member matter what he docs says Ono of these
members, apparently, is Mr.. Hanson, democrat, from
Fulton and Hamilton counties. am informed by
OF the members of the Railroad Committee that
"a certain member came TO him and urged him to
introduce resolution depriving the HERALD corrc-
spondent of the privileges of the floor of
the of the HERALD toward the committee since
it reported adversely upon the mo Seat No Fare''
bill The member of the committee allude to states
that this indignant democrat himself had bill before tho
committee which was reported adversely, the same
night that the "No Seat No Fare" bill reported
Now, the committee that night reported adversely
upon four bills two of which had been introduced by
Mr. Killian, one by Mr.. Falon and another by Mr..
Hanson and as Mr.. Killian and Mr.. Falon deny that
thoy suggested the resolution OF expulsion, Mr. Han
be the party who urged the introduction Of
tho tha or ba
of the Railroad Committee is true Mr.. Hanson it will
be remembered, is the individual who introduced
resolution making certain charges against the Della
ware and Hudson Canal Company, which was handed
to him by lobbyist He is the individual who
made great row about railroad company charging
81 for transporting coal ten twelve miles in
his district, which statement was shown TO BIO un
founded by tho testimony given before tho
Railroad Committee by Mr. Heacock, the Presi-
dent OF the road, and the gentleman
who had charge OF the coal transportation. 1t might
be OF benefit to Mr.. Hanson, in view of the apology
he gave for having introduced the Delaware and Hud-
Canal Company resoution-namely that the gen.
teman who handed it TO him said he was a stock
holder Of the road-if resolution passed
placing special guardian him during
the session, that he may not again mistake
lobbyist for railroad stockholder HIS anxiety to
protect his fellow members, particularly those who
are tho Railroad Committee, from newspaper crt-
might then be ty expressed in the resolution he
desired of tic committee to INTRODUCED for then no
would DO left in doubt to whether the resolution
had not been suggested to him by another railroad
stakeholder"
GREEN BEATEN AT ALL POINTS
The disposition OF the Assembly 10 put their foot
every bill which Comptroller Green is anxious to have
passed and to pass every bill he is known to be OPP
posed to is becoming more and more manifest |
every day. To-day he got ripped up in several |
measures. The Parade Ground bill recon-
united, and the bill which placed Fifth avenue |
under control of the Department of Parks reported
against and the Strahan BILL in relation to arrears of
taxes in the city of New York, despite the Comptro
lers memorial was passed by vote of so ayes, there
being not vote cast against it. In the opinion of many
OF the members the Filth avenue bill emncntly
proper one and should have been reported favoraby.
BE this it may, mention the adverse report
It to show that even to support that the
Comptroller, through his agents here unable to
secure majority OF the Committee on Cities Tho
Srahan bill passed TODAY exactly the same as
the Morrssey bill passed yesterday. 1t provides that
at any time within one year after the passage
of the act any person in arrears in
his payments for taxos-real or personal
in New York may pay the amount of tax he owes to
the Comptroller, with interest at per cent be
calculated from the time that the tax imposed to
the time of the payment. The Comptroller, on pay
ment being made, must give receipt IN full and cancel
the record OF the tax, which shall then cease to
DO lien upon tho taxpayers property. 1t IS
the opinion Of some OF the members that this bill
1cts with the Morrssey bill, which relates TO the pay

II does, doubt the Senate will straghten the
difficulty when the bill goes there for concurrence But
the Morrssey bill deals with assessments exclu-
