the New York Salary bill ~ il had been amend
cd hy Senator pomcroy. When the bill was
called up. only Mr.. Gocbcl Of the New York dclc-
CATION WINS in his scat. and he has acted in har-
mony with Mr. Pomcroy from tho first
upon this measure. This may account
for tho fact that there were no votes
against tho bill. although any idea of
boing able to defeat II has boon abandoned since
the disposition manifested by n majority " tho
Senators when 1t has boon considered in Com
mittcc Of the Whole. OF tho bill MS It passed
the Assembly very little except tho title is lcit.
and It certainly will not hc acceptable
to many who voted for It In its orgi-
nal form. Don Hamilton Fish. Jr. will
have tho matter in charge when II again
reaches the lower House. and with him will
depend very much the question OF whether or
not II shall become n law.
1t will Inc remembered that whom Gov. Robin
son vetoed the Bonded Indebtedness hill for tho
city OF New York. he suggested how n law could
be drafted which would not be omen to any Of
the objections which he raised to that bill. and
which at the samo time would accomplish all
that WINS sought or that was claimed under the
vetoed bill Mr.. DAILY this morning introduced

of the Governor. 1t is M follows:
