 RAILROADs MUST PAY ALL. The House Disposed of the Grade Crossing Bill The Committees Report Materially Amended.
 HARTFORD, Conn.,, May 10. TSpeciat Correspondence of the JOURNAL AND
 CoURIERl
 The house voted this morning to table the resolution to adjourn June and then strug- gled with the grade crossing bill. The amendment to the bill reported by the com mittee of MT. Hammer providing that the railroads pay all the expense of removing grade crossings was favored by Messrs. Brown, Futile, McCrove, Wolfe and Speaker Perry. MT. Glover thought the amendment would work to the detriment of the poor roads. The amendment was passed as were amendments making 1t apply to cases al ready in court, and that property holders in the vicinity of the work may receive dam- pay for the work was rejected. It will be seen that the railroad companies must now bear the entire expense of removing grade crossings which will amount to millions of dollars.
 The Consolidated road has informed the General Assembly that it should not object to this measure, and was willing to pay as it had paid under the old law, on an average of nearly 90 per cent. of the cost of abolishing grade crossings that have been already ex- terminated, and the additional ten per cent. w0uId not make much difference.
 The senate to-day rejected the bill provid- ing for elections by the people Of the county commissioners, and the committee on labor reported favorably on raising the labor con- missioner's salary from $2,O00 to $3,0OO.
