THE MILITIA BILL IN TEE SENATE.
The State militia bill was amended in the Sen
ate, yesterday afternoon. by dividing the appro-
priaton of 20 000 with the provision that So 600
shall be for the specific purpose of defraying the
expenses of an annual State encampment, and
$4,000 to be used in providing armories and
equipment for the different companies. A dema-
gogical harangue by Smith OF Jennings in op-
position to the bill-evidentiy intended for the
benefit of the gallery-oceupied an hour more
of time. The absurdity of s!,e assertions which
were made by the speaker varyingly provoked
amusement and dis gust 1t had the effect to
draw out caustically sarcastic responses from
Senators Hillieass and Magee. while rather a
heated eelloquy of personal nature, occurred
during the discussion between Smith and Will
lard. The speech of Senator Hilligass, in sup
port of the bill, was credtable effort. The
vote on the engrossment stood--yeas o. nays Ii,

the Treasury His Overdraft.
The committee appointed to investigate the
statements in the Journal regarding the irregU-
larities of the officers of the Senate held it's
first meeting last evening. No testimony was
taken, but it was decided to leave the matter of
inquiring into the number of employees on the
pay roll to a subcommittee consisting of Sena-
tors May and Campbell, after which
the work Of examining witnesses will
begin. In the meantime, Mr. Fl. c.
Huffstetter, the assistant secretary of
the Senate, who drew within one month, as the
journal disclosed on last Monday, $75 more than
would be due him for the whole of the session,
has returned to the State Treasury the amount
| of his overdraft. However, as the account still
stands, he is paid in advance for the remainder
of the session. In explanation, Mr.. Huffstetter
says that he was not aware, until the statement
published in the Journal, that he had
drawn SAL, and he claims that the
overdraft was due to g mistake which oc-
Cured through John n. Anderson. the
journal clerk, posting the accounts in an old
from the ledger that has been used for the pres
ent session. In consequence he drew a warrant
for SO more than would be due him at the end
of the term However, Mr.. Huffstetter admits
that it is illegal TO draw salary in advance, al
though he says it is frequently done. He admits
that George Buskirk has been employed his
force without any authority, but claims that Max
Dembufsky was simply given temporary work as a
substitute during the absence from the city, last
week, of Chip" Newland. one of the regular
force. However Mr.. Newand was about the
Senate during part of the week while Dem
bufsky was drawing Day as his alleged subst-
tute Mr. Dembufsky drew his salary in his
| own name. and not as a substitute. He is rec
ported in the Evening Minute of yesterday as
| having stated that he is still the payroll.
The explanations suhstantiate all that the Jour.
| nal has stated, and. to say the least. show the
necessity for a thorough investigation.

cannot consistently oppose it openly. While it

probability that it will be enacted because action
upon it will be delayed in the House, and if it is

Discussion and Amendment of the Ditch
Law-Abolishing City Offices.
Prayer by Rev. S. F. Gillette. of indianapolis,
opened the proceedings in the House yesterday
morning
Mr.. Boyd's bin [H. R. 222l to abolish the Office
of ditch commissioner tapproved April s, 1881,
and amended on March 8, 1881 and to create the
office of drainage commissioners substitute for
the present ditch laws-came up as special or
der. The House went into committee of the
whole with Mr.. Gordon in the chair.
In section of the bill-'sWhenever two or
more owners of separate and distinct tracts of
land, which would be benefited by the same
drainage" etc.-Mr. Engle moved that the
words 1.-TWO or more" in the first be stricken
out, and the word zone" inserted. Mr.. Engle,
in support of his motion, said that often but two
persons are directly interested in ditch which
will be of public utility, and one man should
have power to move for ditch
MIR. Staley-I think that with a few amend
ments this law is what our people want Drain
age laws are too valuable to be neglected. One
man should have the power to move for a
ditch.
Mr.. Sayre-I think that the zone man power
is dangerous in cases where great many are af-
fected. 1t should read, two or more land own
ers," or fifty per cent of such land own
erS." hope the section will remain just AS it is,
unless some better amendment than the one pro
posed is offered.
Mr. Dunn-It makes no difference whether
one. two or more men start the machinery in
motion. Section of the bill provides that
majority Of the landowners shall go before the
court and that the same shall decide from them.
Mr.. McHenry-This bill will be an improve
ment on the old law. An amendment should be
made curtailing remonstrances after the ditch
has been ordered
The amendment was lost. Subsequently the.
section was amended. on motion of Mr.. Staley,
then one shall be sufficient to petition"
Mr.. Taylor moved to amend that part Of sec
ton which relates to notifying the owners of
land affected: that instead of notices being sent
to the postoffice address of such owners, they
shall be notified by summons.
The committee of the whole was dissolved at
noon, and was discharged by the House from
further consideration of the bill.
