The owners OF ships bringing immigrants, as
Communication for their liability for bringing into
the country criminals lns.cs and helpless persons.
In 1876 the Supreme Court declared this charge IN
constitutional, and since then the commissioners
have had no fund with which to care for the mmi-
grants. except as contributed by the State Of New

The bill proposed was introduced after conference
between all the representatives OF the State and upon
the recommendation of the Legislature and State
thorites and provides for authority to the State TO

the accident the physicians favored amputatior of
the leg. but Governor Hampton strenuously opposed
it. and it was not resorted to until the last moment
When informed Of the absolute necessity of the ops
