So the bill was not sent bnck and the
House adjourned over to Monday for
the same reason lucidly given by AL.
Cahall on the result of the legislative
caucus of 1881: "Mispillion submitted.
She could do nothing else"
State Treasurer Burnite expects to 20
to Wilmington next Thursday to pay
off the special constables. He will sit
at Receiver Dickey's office, day and
evening.
The House accepted this afternoon,
largely out of courtesy to Senator Pyle,
who personally urged it, an invitation
to visit the Wilmington public schools
next Friday. Then Senator Pyle went
back into his own branch and renewed
the invitation there, but his fellow.sen-
ators incontinently refused to 90.
DOVER, March 27.-The House to-day
started OIL the thirteenth week of the
session with u quorum and soon disposed
of what little business there was ready,
which comprised only the first reading of
two Senate bills and the second reading of
several others. The rest of the day might
have been used to excellent advantage in
committee work, but for the continued
absence of several members, New Castle
respect. But three of the New Castle dele
CATION, namely, Speaker Whiteman and
Mcssrs. Conch and Day, were here on time
to take part in the days session. MIR.
Watkins came down by the noon train, in
season to take u hand in such committee
work as could be attended to by House
so short-handed.
About the only thing connected with the
session was the communication from the
(Hnltnl trranWa which liz q tho rpGnIi1tlnnS
Of the FELTON, meeting, reported in this
correspondence about six weeks ago
strikes straight from the shoulder. This
communication ran as follows;
That we are unanimously opposed to gam
bling In every shape and form. and that We wit
messed with shame and disgust the barefaced
milling upon the Fairyiew grounds Rt Dover
during the last exhibition, where men were
robbed in open day while the managers OF the
fair took no measures to prohibit it, but rather
connivel at it, We therefore ask the Legislature,
instead of granting them any further priv-
leges, to restrain or annul those they now have
and which they have 30 ilagrantly abused
That we are unanimously opposed to any
increase OF salaries, believing, as we do, that
our present officials are well paid and that
their places can readily he fillei with equally
good and competent men II tho present lncum-
bents desire 10 resign.
That we are or osed 10 any law that would
replace screens where liquors are sold If the
goods are for sale and are desirable, they
should be seen.
That we are in favor Of, and hereby endorse,
the bill now before the Legislature 10 prevent
and punish the shipping of diseased fruit and
II premature peaches are shipped at all they
should bo 80 labeled.
As for the Senate, it, did nothing. as
usual. The Senate always does nothing
ON Mondays. Speaker Houston arrived at
8 p. M, TO TO the great lone act which
sometimes devolves upon him and some
times upon Mr.. Pyle that of rapping to
order the imaginary occupants of the room
directing the clerk to call the roll noting
officially that the roll call shows the
absence of a quorum and thereupon ad-
jOurning to the leNt day.
