ure tuesday.


ALBANY. May l0.-The finest kind of
q row attended the consideration of the
Supplementary supply bill. which was
reported this morning.
1t calls for about $500. 900. and there are
some very interesting items in 1t that
should be closely scrutinized.
1t developed after the bill was report
ed to-day that ths'e was a deadlock over
tie bill for thirty days because of a $500
item increasing the allowance Of the
clerk to the Assembly Committee on
Cities.
The failure OF the Conference Commit
tee to decide upon that $500 will cost
the State about $4,000 more than II the
bill had been disposed of without delay
During the deadlock the Senators and
Assemblyrnen injected items that in
creased the total appropriation 1000
Two Of the items included in the bill
are $1,000 rebate to the Panama Canal
Company and $43.O00 rebate on Buffalo
improvements. neither Of which is con-
sidered a legitimate State obliga lion.
There will probably be fight over the
bill when 1t Is called up for passage.

MAYOR AGAINST IT.
Police Commissioners Individually
Osnouncs the Measure.
Declare u Would Prevent All Eff
forts Towards Reform.

The Mayor to-day gave a hearing on
the Ainsworth Police bill. which vir-
tually puts the power OF trying police
cases in the hands Of the Chief Of Po-
lice. and in effect puts the control OF
the force In that officiars hands.
Police Commissioners Roosevelt. An
drews. Grant and Parker were on hand
to speak against the bill. as was George
l.. Rives. of the Committee of LINK.
Mr. Roosevelt was the first speaker.
He made an tmpassioned appeal to the
Mayor to disapprove the bill. The
rover. he said, which the bill gave the
Chief Of Police to name the courts and
designate the man to be tried. would be
fatal to q pure administration of police
affairs.
This measure Is thoroughly vicious"
declared MIR. Roosevelt. 1T Is unwise
and calculated only to make the police
force worse than 1t Is now.
The bill has not one redeeming fea-
ture. 1t has been drawn in the interest
of discord and corruption. ! earnestly
beg Of you not to sign 1t. 1t Is drawn To
prevent a reorganization Of the force
Commissioner Parker sad:
1T Is calculated to make a master OF
the servant and the servant the master
Under this law, no matter how heinous
the offense committed by a policeman
the Chief Of Police can say: This man
cannot be tried
Thus the case against him Is crushed
in the star chamber OF the Chiefs room
BY this measure everything Is given &c
this measure everything is gwen to the
subordinate OF the Board OF Police.
The bill is unique specimen Of ar
official being given absolute power with
no responsibility"
Commissioner Grant and Andrew.
conquered in all that the other speakers
said, and Mr.. Rives pointed out fata
had been hastily prepared
OF the bill and Mayor Strong announced
that he would return II to Alban,
without his approval.
Commissioner Andrews in his argu
ment against the bill showed the prac
teal side of the matter.
Under the law, he said, the captains
who are the most important on the fore,
reXt to the Chief of Police. and VIII,
would be designated to try police cases
would be taken away from their pre-
cincts anG virtually put on special dut.
for long periods to the prejudice OF dis
cipiine In their commands.
THE BILL" continued Mr.. Andrews
lis weak imitation OF the court-mar
tial system which exists in the army.
I'm the army, however. the offcen
detailed for court-martial duty are Sc
lected with reference to their knowledge
Of the law, and are competent to pas
upon the evidence placed before them.

ANGORA CAT ESCAPES.
Caught as II Was Leaving the BiR
show Of Felines.

The Cat Show draws well. De-
spatches and letters have been received
by Secretary Hyde from Boston.
Minneapolis and Providence. asking his
assistance and advice on the organiza-
ton of cat shows. which. It Is said.
will be held in the near future. Steps
are already being taken towards the
formation of an association to be called
the National Cat Club. 1t will be along
the same lines as the dog clubs. and
The feature Of the show at Madison
Square Garden to-day was the presence
of many old ladies'. Many of them had
their grand children with them.
The only excitement Of the day was
furnished by an Angora cat, whose cage
was on the second iioot. I! escaped
about 10 o'clock and, scared by the
crowds. went scurrying around the
building. In some way 1t reached the
roof and after that began a downward
march. 1t was caught as It was about
to leave the building. Its owner re-
fused to allow It to remain in the show
and took il home.
The special awards will be announced
this evening.

ON GREATER NEW YORK.
Lexow Will Try to Get the Bill Up
Next Tuesday.

ALBANY, May 10.-A little old lady,
wearing gold spectacles and corkscrew
curls. edged her way modestly into the
Senate this morning and deposited big
china bowl Of fresh wood violets on the
desk OF Reformer Lexow.
He was nightly pleased at first and
bowed his Acknowledgements to the
doner. The Senator distributed his
flowers and was in most excellent humor
esend: FOR Defeating the Greater New
old lady looked panied. She hadn't put
the card in the bowl but some joker had
done 1t for her. She meant it for a
tors interest in educational matters.
Speaking Of the prospects of the Great
er New YORK bill; Lexow said he would
he hos get mt %oud rseeve mso anS
OF the votes.
In the Assembly this morning the
shape was reported by the Cities Com
mittee. and restored to its place on the
calendar. 1t is now on second reading,
and has been made special order for
Monday night. Chairman Grady, OF the
Cities Committee. says it will pass.
Lieut.-Gov. Saxton has made a propo-

passing the bill wi tn referendom clause
II they are sincere in their expressed
wishes 10 pass II.
He has confirmed with the Kings
County Assemblymen and the latter
have promised to support the bill with
the referendum amendment.
1t Is understood that the bill will be
passed by the Assembly Monday night
and go to the Senate on Tuesday.
As part Of this scheme the Lieuten-
ant-Governor will probably certify to the
Governor the necessity Of immediate
passage of the bill in order that the
constitutional rule requiring bill to lie
on the desks of members three days
may be waived. The waving OF this
rule would probably let the bill through
by Wednesday at latest.
