chairman OF the Committee on Corpora
tions, presented his report on the proceed
ings held last evening in relation to the rail
road question. The report was favorab Bile
to tie substitute Of Bedsoe to the resolu-
ton Introduced by Schlesinger
Mathews OF Tehama said that the Bledsoe
substitute should go on as a bill. Bledsoe
moved that the report be adopted. Mathews
combated him on that TOint, and BedSoe
contented himself for the time being with

The Commissioners were entitled to a fair
