SPRINGFIELD, May I5.-The senate re-
ceived messages from Governor Altgeld
vetoing bills requiring the consent CT q
majority Of property owners on a street
before gas pipe. street railways, etc. can
be laid and preventing elevated and street
railways crossing at grade, etc. Consid-
Grafton OF the Same was postponed. The
bill to give Mrs John II. Logan and others
$4,000 for work in collecting the direct
tar in 1851 was passed. A bill was in
PRODUCED to prevent gambling in wheat,
etc In the house the governors vetoes
were made special order for tomorrow.
The revenue bill was taken up, several
amendments adopted and the bill ordered
to third reading. The garnishinent bill
was defeated.
The governors veto message contained
about Z. 900 words and the pith of it was
that the three bills vetod would perpetuate
monopoly. Now q city council can grant
q franchise for only twenty years, but the
Crawford bill gives power to grant .
franchise for ninety-nine years, thus bind
ing generations yet unborn. One Of the
bills repeats the law providing that an
ordinance to build q street railway in .
street can only be granted on condition
that the company pay all damages which
the owner of abutting property on street
or public grounds may sustain by reason
Of the building Of the road.
The governor says that 'both the Craw-
ford bills provide that any property holder
can enjoin any new company from com.
mencing work by alleging that 1t did not
have q petition signed by the owners Of a
majority of che frontage before the coun-
Gil granted the ordinance" 1t is easy to
see how this could be worked to defeat a
new company. He mentions number of
other objections to the bills.
The bill introduced to prevent gambling
in wheat, etc, it is claimed, Is aimed at the
Chicago board of trade, Of which
w. T. Baker is president. Baker
is also president Of the Civic
Federation, which is responsible
for the raid Of the race tracks in Chicago.

party favored bimetallism. and that
was the party's record. She said the
Republicans of the west were more

than were the Republicans of Penn

She insisted that anything else than

At Midnight.
AT midnight the committee on reso-
buttons divided into sections. The
subcommittee retired to draft a re-
port, while the other thirty-seven
members remained to hear the argu-
ments for and against silver, with oc-
casional appeals sandwiched in for
tariff, woman suffrage and temper
ance.
1t is thought the subcommittee on
resolutions will remain in session all

idaho, are the only three men accorded
them on the subcommittee and they
are not pleased.

Cleveland, June 19.-William Tracey,
president of the Republican League
clubs, whose national convention will
be held here, has given out the fol-
lowing under his signature:
I'm my opinion this convention will
with regard to the money question,
follow the lines laid out by the con-
vention in Denver last year. The
declaration at that time was clear,
sharp and specific. 1t followed the
hne of the national platform of 1892,
and favored the eSta adjustment of
bimetallic standard of money through
an international agreement looking to
the enlarged use of silver. The reso-
lutions as adopted at Denver proved
highly satisfactory to the advocates
of silver at that time and 1 am salts
fed that they will be as pleased with
the action of this convention. / be-
lieve the great majority of the dele
gates in this convention will be posi-
lively opposed to any resolution de-
claring in favor of free silver. The
delegates from Illinois will oppose any
such action to a man. The conven-
ton will in no way anticipate the &C

been most careful in the past to not
overstep our prerogatives and am
satisfied that the present convention
will confine itself to outlining plans
for carrying on the work for which
this organization was formed. We
have all we can do if we perfect our
organization and put it in working
condition for the campaign of 1886. OF
course, national questions will be dis
cussed as is proper, but no action
will be taken which will not be in &C
cord with the conservative policy of
past conventions of this organization.

no differences OF opinion existed IN the

cept on the silver question. Nearly
all the members of the committee We're

will not be difficult to adopt re-
port. Still it is conceded that these in
structicns make It almost certain that
both majority and minority reports
will be presented to the convention,
and that the silver question will be
fought out on the floor tomorrow. The
silver men still have confidence in their
strength among the delegates, al
though a majority Of the committee
is against them.
