A MISSING BILL FOUND.

The Pensacola Charter Measure
Found at n Boarding House.
Tallahassee. Fla, July 6-The stir
about the Pensacola charter bill seems
to have ended in smoke. Col. Appleyard
secretary of the Senate. to-day found the
original bill in the room occupied by Mr.
Amas, at Mrs. Coles, who had placed II
carefully away with other papers found
after the room was vacated. 1t is claimed
that the original bill, the engrossed copy,
and the enrolled bill, all agree, except
that the word Florida" does not APP
pear in the title of the enrolled bill, and
clearly there is no evidence of fraud. The
title of the bill in the Journal is said to
be simply that taken from the back of the
folded engrossed bill The title on the
face of the original, engrossed and en-
rolled copies all agree, AZ is said, hence
there can be no tenable ground for those
who were so hasty in charging that
fraud had been perpetrated in connection
with the measure.
