YESTERDAYS HOUSE PROCEEDINGS.
The Constellation Of The General Appropria-
ton Bill Is Finally Begun.

The House was in session yesterday until 8
o'clock in the afternoon The Senate resolution
authorizing the payment of w. H. DRAPER for
the Brewer Legislative Reports at the rate of two
thirds of a cent page for 1850 volumes was in
definitely postponed, by an overwhelming major
ity. Speaker Jewett took the floor aud made a
vigorous speech against the resolution
Tho general appropriation bin was called up
under the regular order of business, when Sulli-
van county was reached on the call, and the
House went into session as committee of the
whole, with Mr.. Adams in the chair, for its con-
sideration. Mr.. Gordon strongly opposed the
item appropriating 1914 coo to Purdue University,
and moved to strike it out of the bill. Mr..
French thought that it was strange that every
proposed appropriation for State educational
institutions should be opposed by the member
who lived in the shadow of DePauw University.
Nearly the whole of the committee session was
occupied in discussing the matter, without reach
ing any conclusion. The consideration Of the
bill will be resumed tomorrow morning.
Mr.. Kellison's resolution proposing an amend
ment to the Constitution providing for increas-
ing the number of Supreme Court judges from

THE BIG FOUR SHOPS.
President Ingalls, Explains the Cause of the
Company's Delay in Building Them.

In answer to an inquiry from Clerk Bruenig Of
President ingalls,, of the Big Four road, relative
to building shops in the southeastern part Of
the city, the following letter shows the status of
affairs: Mr.. Ingalls, says:
TAT the time the ordinance in question was
passed, we expected to commence the erection of
the shops at once, but our company at that time
was visited by great calamity in the way OF
successive floods, and before we had fairly recov-
cred from that the depression in business had be-
come SO severe that no railway manager was
justified in undertaking new work. If business
shall continue to improve this summer, and next
August shall show fair crops along our lines in
your State, we shall commence work on our new
shops during the coming fall. If the reverse
should be true, we shall have to postpone until
the times will justify / believe the dis
comforts of the citizens from the vacation
Of the streets referred to has been overrated and
that the chief complaint comes from spectators
in real estate who have not reaped the profits
they expected. However that may be, our inten-
tons are as above set forth. If your honorable
body, however, should conclude that the inter
ests of the city demand the opening of the
streets in question, we, of course, shall have to
submit and seek another location for our shops
/ cannot conceive, however, that this can hap
pen, for believe that the interests of the city
and OF our company are Identical"
