 is for fees for the lawyers on each side and | about $15 ,000 for the aggregate expenses, | divided about equally. He believes that the people who are called upon to pay
 these bills should have the items of their | charges, 80 as to know where the cash is to go and for what. Nobody even knows yet who is to receive the fees on each side.
 Senator Pierce advocated the bill which had passed the house appointing the pro- posed auditing committee as did Senator l Milner, while Senators Fox end Crandall ! favored Mr. Roots resolution.
