TRENTON, June 8. 1S95.-The Senate
Investigating Committee will meet at
the Capitol today to consider finally the
report to be made tomorrow afternoon
10 the Legislature. 1t was finished last
night and, after being signed by the
members of, the committee, it will be
printed and attached to the book of
pg.a1tedo testimony. The testimony covers
about 1000 large pages
The, most Important bill to be recon-
mended by the COMMITTEE has been
drawn 1t treats the subject of specific
appropriations for the yearly expenses
of the departments. 1t requires the pay
ment of the salaries of all employees of
the State by the Treasurer and provides
FORA more economical administration
of public affairs. All the other bills to
be Recommended VIII be ready by Tues
day.
It is thought that the Legislature will
sit at least three weeks. although there
is a movement to have the member adj
journ at once until October. to allow the
Investigating Committee time to close
its work and then secure all the needed
legislation at one time. Those active m
the movement say, the weather is too
hot for work and 1an the business could
be considered next fall and passed on in
about the same time that would be con-
sumed now over the partial report of the
committees! s2l"
THE NEWSPAPERS AGAIN.
One of the committees bills will seek
ITO repeal the existing law providing for
the advertising of the laws in ninety
newspaper of the State. and to substi-
tutel the plan of having the State print
the laws in newspaper sheets and pay
the publishers a small sum for circulat-
ing them. There will be a hot fight
against this. and the editors and pub
fishers who lave been favored have
started a movement to defeat the scheme.
Under the resolution providing for the
June session. no business may be trans
acted beyond receiving the Investigat-
Committees report, acting upon its rec
concentrations. and considering the pend
a., ing vetoes of the Governor. Neyerthe-
less. there is a disposition on the part
of some Republicans to promote parti-
san schemes.
One scheme is fathered by the machine
or anti-Murphy faction in Essex county.
II Is to secure the repeal of the amend
lment to the election law. whose pas
age was procured by members of the
ular session. The machine men find that
the new law displaces about 1870 party
workers on election day in Essex coun-
/, 1000 for services. The movement for
repeal is headed by Mayor Lentz, the
chairman of the Essex County Commit
Franklin Murphy's G~ubernatoria aspira-
tons. The State Committee will oppose

1ourning reseiution there viii be no

fourteen weeks. the Hous took a recess
from April 16 to June L, while the SEN

Governor, but particularly to hear the
report of the Senate Investigation Com

accompanied by a number of bills which
will change many phases of the State
Government. 1t will probably take two
all this business, and the Legislature
will not be allowed to take up any other
legislation but that which will be sug-
gested to them by, the Governors mes
There is likely to be quite considerable
discussion over the bills that are to be
presented by the committee, for this is
Indicated by the expressions of many
have notions of their W as to corrected
legislation. e
There will be considerable discussion
on every one of the bills, and since this
has become manifest, it is probable that
a Joint caucus of the Republicans will be
held tomorrow morning. when the report
will be gone over and a line of action
agreed upon privately. so as NOT to en-
barrass the workrin the House by con-
fict of opinion
