Tho Illinois Legislatures worId's Fair
Work aIny BE All Undone by Veto.
CHICAGO, August A dispatch from
Springfield, ILL.,, asserts that there is
danger the Worlds Fair bill may be ve-
toed by Governor F!fer, BY an amend
nent adopted almost in the last mo-
yneuta Of The special session, the Legis.
lature is said to have possibly exceeded
the powers conferred by the special call
issued by Governor Filer. The amend
ment in question is in relation to sub
merged lands on the lake front, the
ownership OF which it is proposed to
vest in the city Of Chicago for park pur.
poses after the Worlds Fair is ended.
This directly creates new park, and
legislates away the title to such sub.
merged land as may be reclaimed, the
same being the property Of the State.
It is declared that the call contem.
plated legislation giving to the Worid's
Fair only the use Of public grounds oil
either State, city or park for purposes OF
the lair. The amendment passes title
with certain restrictions, and creates a
new park, proposition apparently not
involved by the call and not included in
the title to the bill, and the Courts OF
the State have held time and again that
"but one subject shall be included in ali
act and that shall be expressed in the
title"
II Governor Fiter is forced to veto the
bill, it is understood that ho will not
reconvene the Legislature, but will allow
the matter to be reintroduced in the
Thirty.sevcnth General Assembly. ~,
