and the Chamber Of Commerce Rapid
Transit bills were a special order for
this morning in the Senate. but Senator
LeNow asked that they be laid over until

privilege. One Of the New York evening
newspapers had charged the Judiciary
Committee, through him, It's chairman,
OF smothering the bill requiring cam
paisn committees to make sworn state
ments Of campaign expenses, In the In
~terests OF Platt. He wanted to say that
he did not know. that there wal such a
bill pending. and no M had ever ap-
peared before the Commute to argue
upon 1t or to nov 1t out Of the Com
mittee.
Senator Coggeswell also answered the
charges that la been made against
him for voting against the New York
Sheriff bill. He Justified his vote and
said he would never vote for a meas
ure that a v only sl5,o 600 for such 9 re.
sponsible position as that of Sheriff of
the great city Of New oYrk. He was
not driven into the caucus. He always
went into caucus and a whole regiment
