Olnev md Corporaton Counsel Whitney, Of New
York In their report they state that, In
order to provide against omissions, they maoe
three separate and independent examinations OF
the Session Laws from 1913 to the present time, going
over them page by page, noting oil acts which related
in any way to the City OF Now-York. aim
liar examination was made OF the 'heVlseu
Statutes, while Mr. Bliss twice examined tne
laws passed prior to 1913. After a comparison
OF the results Of these examinations the Commissioners
caused all the acts thus noted to be arranged by SUD-
jeots and from them the draft Of the compilation was
prepared by Mr. Bliss. Mr. Olney then went over this
draft afterwhich the completed work was
prepared under the advice and cooperation OF MT
Whitney. Regarding the books, the Commissioners
say:
We have first given the Royal Charters, which are
now for first time; outside OF the CORPORATION
charter Of 1873 whole, incorporating nS IL, IN
boundaries and local divisions OF the city and nave
eminent in the order IN which they are EN-
brs ced in the charter, Inserting the charter, pro
visions as to each department In turn, and 1ol-
lowing them with the other existing provisions OF law
which relate to the Departments. We have thus
brought together all the laws which relate TO what
may be- called the framework of the City Gov
eminent III connection with these we have have
inserted tho "AnncXatIOn Act" and the laws
relating 10 elections, excise, and to various local
regulations. Succeeding those are the numerous
istIng streets, paris and public places thus bring
ing together I'm the first volume, most OF the laws
OF constant application In the city. In the second
volume We placed the laws relating to the real es
tate buildings and improvements OF the city, and to tue
ferries and after these the laws relating to the courts
and Judicial officers, the harbor, quarantine emigration
and piotage and relating to institutions, socl
eties aud corporations
With their report the Commissioners send draIt OF an
act to repeal the local laws OF NewYork which they
regard either repealed or superseded by later leRs
lation The list is very long one. extending
as It does from 1874 10 the present year.
The Commissioners close by recommending n
revision of all the laws force. They The
greater familiarity any has with the existing lava
the more thorough will I've his Appreciation OF tho mud

that a revision is oil pressing Importance"

RIVALRY AMONG THE "FAvOKITE soNs"-rHUR-
MAN TO BE RECOMMENDED FROM COURTESY.
COLUMBUS, Ohio, May 5.-A large number OF del
egates are here to attend the Democratic State Con-
yention Tomorrow. Very little interest is taken IN
the State officers to be nominated ana
the talk is mostly of the Presidential can
d,dates. There is general feeling that
while Senator Thurman deserves we'll of Ohio and
that he must be treated we'll in the Convention, he
has little chance of securing the nomination at
Cincinnati, and the fight hero is really between
Tilden or PAYNE and II. J. Jewett
Some very earnest work has been done for Payne
and the Payne men claim that he is really the prime
second choice Of the Ohio Democracy, and hence
they are jubllant tonight over their success. The
Jewett men assert that with Sherman out of the way
their man stands an excellent show as Oho's favor
lite son. $50, - 49,
Frank Hurd, strong Tilden man. has been
selected for temporary chairman of the Con-
yeption The indications are that the CONVENTION
will tomorrow, adopt resolutions lnstructlng the
delegates-at-arge and requesting district delegates
to use all honorable means to secure the nomination
of the Hon. Allen G.. Thurman for President, also
a resolution instructing the delegates to vote as
unit.
