BILL THAT VANISHED.
Nevada Soions Hunting a Lost
Measure.
A Statute Reducing the Salaries of
Deputy State Officers Found
to Be Missing.
Special TO THE MORNING CALL.

CARSON, New, March THE sixteenth
session of the Nevada Legislature adjourned
last night In coed order. II was q silver
Legislature throughout the entire session,
and the Lawmakers kept their promises to
the people. The Board of Equalization.
which had become very obnoxious to the
taxpayers, was Knocked out, and the pepi-
Tertiary still remains IN Ormsby County,
although the Washoe delegation did every
thing to effect change.
The only incident Of Importance after the
adjournment was the loss of Senate oil II,
providing for reduction of the salaries of
State officers deputies from $1,000 year to
$1,000, the reduction to commence January
l, 1894. 1t appears that the bill was never
even enrolled, as the clerks diselaim any
knowledge of it. and the Governor states
that the bill never reached his Office.
The State Controller says: Il will draw
my warrants GU the State Treasurer the rest
of this year at the rate of S166 6635 per
month, ard at the beginning of the follow
ing year for S133 1913. The law passed both
houses, as the journal shows, aud | pro-
pose that the purpose of the law shall be
carried ont. 1t seems TO be a mystery all
round. but as other eases similar to this are
on record where the loss of bill would do
no one a particle of good. 1 do not feel justi-
fed in accusing any one OF ehicanery in the
matter. 1t may be taken into the courts.

Moore Trial OneIied

FRESNO, March Z. - Tho jury In the
Blume case remained out all night. At $50
this morning they appeared in court to have
their memories refreshed as to the testi-
mony bearing on Blume's alibi and the
death-bed statement of Haskins. After the
court reporter had read the same the jury
retired once more. They finally returned
at 80 this afternoon and announced that
they could not agree. They firmly believed
Haskins was murdered, but could not de-
eide whether Bume was his slayer The
jury STOOD for acquittal and 4 for
conviction. The Judge dismissed the jury.
a motion was made that Blume be admitted
to bail. 1t was granted and the bond fixed
at $4,000.
The trial Of Clark Moore, charged with
being accessory after the fact to murder,
in hGrbnTing and assisting Sontag and
Evans. the train robbers, was called before
Judge Holmes this afternoon. The people
were TepTes ented by Assistant District At
torney and Reel B. Terry, and the defend
ant by n. c. Coldwell and Sam Kinds. The
entire afternoon was spent In getting a
jury, six having been secured at the time of
adjournment. The examination of Jurors
was very simple, bearing on their knowl-
edge of the case from newspapers and per-
sons. their relations witl-the railroad and
express company, if any, and their senti-
ments toward those corporations.

MILAN dollars. II you want the railroad
company to keep this money two years
longer just vote against this bill"
Shanahan said that altogether he was in
favor of the bill as it went back to 1882, If
further amendment was made making the
rate the rate of the year for which the
assessment was taken.
Ex-Controler Dunn then gave statement
Of the amount that would be raised by the
Carpenter substitute. He figured ont the
total loss on the face OF the taxes as S1.522-
600, and declared that the bill would yield
but about 81, 100000, instead of s.. $4,000 as
claimed by Cross.
Colonel Barry said that if the railroad
| should contest this Carpenter subs titute IL
would be declared unconstitutional, because
it violated that fundamental rule of taxa
tiou that burdens should rest equally on all
taxpayers
If the rate is less in 1898 it will be an in
justice to the State; if it is greater it would
be unjust TO the railroad company.
The committee adjourned until tomorrow
morning al 9 O'clock to take a vote OIL this
bill.
The Assembly Judiciary Committee met
tonight to consider the Carpenter reassess-
ment bill, which has passed the Senate and
which was referred to the committee by the
Assembly this morning. Ex-senator Chprles
Cross, attorney for the Southern Pacific
Company, appeared. He rehesrsed the
whole matter before the committee. and
argued that the Carpenter bill is the only
bill that is constitutional.
Colonel Barry, attorney for the Traffic
Association. argued against its passage.
John p. Dunn, ex-State Controller, pro-
duced figures taken from books of the Con-
troller's Office, showing that the amount of
taxes due and unpaid by the Southern Pa
cific since 1883 is $685. 534 90. while Car
penter's bill proposes to raise S319.272 49, a
difference Of S5S9, 262 ~.
Besides this is the loss on county taxes
which amounts to S933,66 Sc, which makes
total less under the Carpenter substi-
tute of S1,552 924 IS. After listening to a
great deal of argument pro and con the
committee adjourned at IL O'Clock until
