IN STATE LEGISLATURE,
Both Bodies Passed Resolution to
Adjourn to April 5.
for Wild Foxes-Inland Fisheries.

Speaker Owen did not take possession
of his throne today and an ingenious
attempt was made to translate DIR.
Garvin to the seat OF honor. He
modestly declined, as did also the
veteran Parks of Richmond. Finally
Representative O'Sullivsn, the dispenser
of legislative literature, consented to
serve. The reading of the records was
dispensed with and Clerk Cushing was
delighted.
Representative Brown oil Providence
moved a reconsideration of the vote
whereby the act regulating the sale of
goods marked "sterling silver" was
passed. He said that persons interested
in the bill desired hearing, and hence
moved its recommitment TO tie commit
tee. That course was taken.
DIR. Garvin rose to personal explana-
tion in answer TO an editorial criticism in
the Woonsocket Reporter, under the
caption of "a Close Call, 4" in
which he claimed that that news
paper had made misleading state
inents in regard to the nine hour bill,
particularly taking the position that the
mesure was passed by the Republican and
Democratic members OF the
House with one exception. He
read the roli-call 10 show
that the vote was 80 10 II, only two Re-
publicaus joining with the majority
Messrs. Aldrich and Mowry. He said nc
wasn't often moved TO reply to sucn criti-
cisms, but as il was so manifestly untrue
and misleading he wanted to
explain the exact situation to
show that IL was not Republican measure
and that the Republican Senate had not
shown any disposition to pass upon the
bill although II had been in its possession
for several weeks.
From the committee on education. Bill.
