ALBANY, March %. 1S93.-Tbe report
that the Greater New York bill was de-
feaued at a secret meeting Of the Senate
Committee last night is untrue.
The Senate Cities Committee had a
hearing on the Rochester Charter bill,
which lasted until after FIVE o'clock IN
the afternoon. The committee then went
into secret session, and what traDspired
in connection with the Greater New YORK
bill is thus told by Senator Brown, Chair
man OF the committee.
Senator Endres was absent and
moved that the greater New York bill be
reported. Senator Coggeshell (Rep. OF
Utical asked on behalf of Senator Nc cCarty
that the consideration of the bill be de-
ferred until he (McCarty) was present,
as he had some amendments to
offer. Whereupon the bill was laid over
till today. when I understand that Cor
poration Counsel jerks is to be here with
tiles desire to make. There was no action
and no vote taken on the bill"
Senator Coggeshell says: 'There was
no vote on the bill and no attempt made
to either defeat or rush it through the
COMMITTEES. For my part, am in favor
of knocking out that provision which re-
quires that whether the popular vote is
for or against the project that the Greater
New York Commission shall go ahead
and draw up bill for the consolidation.
II think If the popular vote of Brooklyn
or any other locality is against the bill
that che functions of the bill in reference
to that locality at least should cease. l
am, therefore, in favor OF the amendment
to compass this, which understand the
Brooklyn Senators will press both In the
Committee and on the floor OF the

this note with the Warden OF the CITY
Prison:-"Mr. Harris is very busy, but
will be very happy to meet all the re-
porters at four O'Clock"
EaThe meaning of the note was explained
BY Warden O'Rourke who said that
Harris was engaged in writing state
ment. He was presumably preparing IL

his mother when she visited him yester-
day.

that the effects of the ordeal of this week
could be seen today. Harrls presented
still the sembiance of complete uncon-

restless. So much so that Keepers Orr

He awoke with start at three O'CLOCK,
suffering from a nervous headache.
He did not close his eyes again, though

very light breakfast of eggs, bread and
coffee was listlessly eaten.

up the morning papers and read about
his case. He was thus engaged at fifteen
minutes to eight o'clock, when Prof. K.
Ogden Doremus, who was classmate of
Harris's grandfather, DR.. McCready,
called. The veneral Professor remained
until ten minutes to eight O'Clock. Among
other things, the Professor remarked that
it was q shame a new tY1al was not
granted.
Incidentally, Prof. Doremus remarked
that be understood that the trip. to Sing
Sing was fixed for tomorrow. He asked
Harris II he would like further delay.
"It makes no difference to me-" an

to go some time 1t might as well be to-
morrow as later. Perhaps it will be less
of strain on my mother after it is all
over"
At 9 O'Clock Harris took his daily exer-

corridors with one hand in his pocket.
He appeared to be thinking perhaps about
the paper he began writing an hour later.
He said little to the day watch. Timothy

his steady tramp throughout the entire

on his every motion.
