ALBANY, April 12.-The one hundredth
day OF the session was signalized by the triumph
In the Senate Of Comptroller Green over Tam
many Hall and the Custom House, which was
more not ceable because OF the complete back
ing down from the arrangement made to defeat
the Comptroller by the representatives. of the
Custom tIOuse, and the fact that OF all the New
York city Senators Gerard alone stood by Wick
ham and Tammany. II IL said that the combi-
nation with Tammany on this bill was made on
the part OF the Custom House by Little Johnny
Davenport. Police Commissioner Clint Wheeler.
Salem II. Wales, and other feather weights,
without the consent OF Arthur. Cornell, and
other leaders. and that II was by Cornells com
mand that the combination was broken. Little
Johnny, Wheeler and Wales are said TO be in
bad odor with the leaders for their attempt to
run the machine. They have not been seen In
Albany since the combination was broken.

sent that II be reforrcd to the Committee Of the
Whole instead Of to a standing committee. This
was also objected to, aud the bill went to the
Committee on Cities.
A bill precisely ike the one that passed the
Senate was reported IN the Assembly to-day
from the Committee on Cities, the object being
to have 1t ready to substitute for the Senate tll

through. ono reason for this haste Is said to be
a desire to get the bill before the Governor at
least ten days before the meeting of the Cdca
u offending ranmany Hall by signing II. or the
Comptroller and anti-rammany by refusing to
do so. Senator Morrissey IL not entirely salts
ned, however, that the extension bill Will get
through the Assembly. and even III II does, he
COMPTROLLER IN the end. N he should o ap-
pointed 10y the new Mayor. This Ia why he has
introduced the bill for an elective Comptroller.
