Veto Of the Superintendent Of Public
Works Bill.
CANAL REFORM DELAYED.
The Governor 10 Send In Message on
Bank Superintendent Ellis.
[BY TELEGRAPH TO THE HERALD

ALBANY, March 20, 1877.
Tho sensation in to.night's session the Cover
nors veto OF the bill relating TO the superintendent OF
Public Works, for which position his nomination or
General Mcclellan was rejected II was not anticipated
that Governor Robinson would adopt such summary
measures to mark his ndIgn alton OF the treatment hts
appointments met by the Senate II was
rather expected that he would send In
another democratic name as unexceptionable as that
of Mcclellan, and then let the republicans bear tho
odium If they chose OF defeating the practical rcaza
ton of canal reform, much desired by the people.
The feeling among some republicans this evening Is
that the Governor has made mistake, and that he
will lose more by Il than they eau. Others say that
between the Senate and himself the blame will be
about equally divided The former kept tho bill for over
month after II passed by the Senate, thus giving
the Governor his present excuse for votoing 1t.
which chiefly that the time between tho sending III
and confirming OF another name and the opening OF
canal navigation would be Insufficient to allow the
new appointment to make the necessary arrangements
aud appointments. They blame tho Governor how
evrr, tor vetong bill which he prepared 10 sign
in case Mcclellan was confirmed. Democrats say he
did exactly right; some Of them think he ought
to have kept on sending in names, and
placing the onus on tho Senate. As the
bill cannot be passed over tho veto, and oven II it
could no force would be gwen in the absence OF
nomination.. the control OF the canals must remain
for another year in the hands OF the three democratic
Commissioners The veto laid the table aud
ordered TO be printed.
When the Governor finished hts veto no quit the
Executive Chamber and went home.
