A PROBABLE VETO FROM THE PRESIDENT.
THE DEFICIENCY BILL TO BE RETURNED TO CON"
GREss BECAUSE OF THE OBJECTIONABLE
rider "-THE ARMY BILL TO BE APPROVED.
tBY TELEGRAPH TO THE TRIBUNF.l
WASHINGTON April 26.-There is excellent reason
for the prediction that the President will sign the
Army Appropriation bill. now in his hands, and
veto the Immediate Deficiency bill, which is yet to
be acted upon by Committee of Conference.
Tho "rider on tho Army bill is substantially the
same as that which the Democrats put upon tho
Army Appropriation bill for the current year, and
signed by the President. That provision forbds
the use of anv money appropriated by the bill Tor
the payment or transportation Of troops to be used
to keep the peace at the polls election day. To
it has been added another condition. known as the
Hurd amendment, which excludes from this prohlbi-
tiOn such Of troops is expressly authorized by
the Constitution of the United States. This pro-
yiso does not change the character of tho amond-
ment except by implication, the implication being
that the express permission given the President to
use tho troops in certain forblds him to use
them in all others provided for by laws now on
the statute book. This Interpretation many of the
leading Republicans in both houses OF Congress
do not accept and it is believed that the Presl-
dent understands the provision as they do.
The ground OH which the President will probably
veto the Immediate Deficiency bill will be substan-
italy the same that was stated in the veto message
of the extra SESSION. The Executive is required to
execute the election law we'll as all other stat
| utes of the United States and the rider" on the
Deficiency bill, although iD some respects different
from those which it was attempted to pass last ses'
| Sion will in effect prevent him from doing so.
IL is said among the Democrats Of the House that
! House will send him another bill containing the
| items which that measure embraces except the ap;
| preparation for United States MarshaIs, and wli
refuse to make any appropriation for the marShais
until the President IL willing to approve Dill Wltn
such conditions as they see tit to impose.
