Hudson-Earley Aftermath.
The Hudson Farley contest in VIII.
mington led to the passage OF two bills
In the General Assembly yesterday. One
brought into the assessors district that
part OF ths Twelfth ward which had
never been incorporated in 1t, and
which led to the defeat OF Hudson. This
was passed by the Senate. The House
passed the bill which compeIs the election
inspectors of Wilmington to mset at
noon on the day following the general
election and canvass the votes for
assessors. The old Law specified that
they should meet. but did not state
when.
For the Judiciary.
EIrly In the session some friend OF the
judiciary introduced a bill allowing q
judge So day when sitting ia his own
county. It passed the House yesterday.
Mr.. Walker before the vote on the bill
was taken, stated that under the old law
tbs chief justice received lass than any
Of the associate judges except the ons
from New Castle county. Ia his opinion
tho bill before the House would almost
sqt slizs the matter.
de was supported by Mr. Moore who
stated that the chief justics received less
thsn,any Judge except one In his opinion
the bill was just, and the House should
pass 1t. Msssrs, Syphsrd and Jolls also
expressed themselves fAvorably. Mr..
Burton saw no reason for raising the
salaries when they we're allowed to
remain at homs.
The Senator in Washington.
Senator Moore was not present yes
tsrdAy He was In Washington TO look
after the interests OF the schooner ]
Dallas Marvil, against which a libel has
been hled. The senator Is one Of the
owners Of the schooner.
The state Detectives.
Now that there is a Democratic
governor the Democratic members Of
the Senate are sorry that they did not
pass the House bill curing the defect In
the Law authorizing the appointment Of
two state detectives. The old law made
provision for the appointment of two
men for four years, but failed to provide
for SUGGESTING appointments
The House bill of the present session
continued the appointing power The
Democratic senators believing that they
| could secure at least one OF the dateo
tives, and not anticipating the death Of
the governor at so early date, killed the
House bill and Senator Pyle introduced
one allowing the governor to appoint one,
/ but compelling him 10 select the other
/ from list of names offered by the
attorney general, Democrat This bill
is now in the hands Of the Senate Com
mittee On Judiciary, consisting Of Msssrs
Alrlchs, Moore aud Harrington-t two
Dar I4aa l.
lican members wanted to report It unfav-
oraoly but Mr.. Harrington requested that
the report be without recommend alton. .
IL ID passes the Senate by reason Of one
Republican voting for 1t, the Republicans
Of the House will be very careful that 1t
/ does not pass there without an amend
ment providing that one shall be . Demo
crRt and the other Republican In fact
they are already anticipating It's arrival
ON their side OF the State House.
