 "In view of the fact that sickness of an infectious nature typhoid fever) prevails in the First regiment, Connec- ticut Volunteer infantry at Camp Ha- ven, state military rendezvous, Mantle, Conn.,, it is the decision of the surgeon general of the state and of the surgeon of said regiment that it would be un- wise to have new troops go into said camp at this time; therefore the en- campment of the Connecticut National Guard as embodied in c.

A communication was received from
the House announcing the passage of
and transmitting House bill 80 relating
to tax appeals.
Substitute House bill > relating to
licenses was reported from the Print
ing Committee read by title and sent to
the Commerce Committee, Senate bill
"a relating to the submisson of differ
ences to the Supreme Court was receiv-
ed from the same committee, read by
title and sent to the Judiciary Commit
tee. The same course was pursued
with Senate bill %, amending the law
of appeals and bills of exception.
If the amendments returned from the
judiciary Committee to the House bill
regulating The release of dover are
accepted, it will be possible for mar
RCD women tc give their power of at
torney to persons other than their hus-
bands. 1t is calculated by the promo
tiers of the bill that this will greatly
facilitate real estate transactions.
Heretofore, Senator Brown explained,
titles have been refused on the ques-
tiOn of women releasing their rights Of
dover. Sometimes they have given
their power of attorney to their hus-
bands. Attorneys have believed that
this in Vesting the whole disposition of
property in the husband and might be
considered contrary to existing laws,
inasmuch as they were enacted to pre-
vent such result. Sometimes attor-
neys have hesitated when the power of
attorney has been given to a person
other than the husband. The present
bill provides for transferring the pow
er. The bill passed second reading and
went to the Revision Committee. Third
reading was set for Wednesday.
Senator Holstein introduced a bill to
amend the laws relating to bankruptcy, !
making regulations, among others, for
cases which shall be heard only in the !
circuit where the alleged bankrupt has !
had his headquarters.
Senator Rice was excused from at
tendance for the remainder OF the |
week.
The Public Lands Committee recon-
mended that the plat of ground at Aala |
be set apart for a public recreation
ground instead of a park. They also |
recommended that the old Makiki base
ball ground be made a public recrea-
ton ground as we'll. Their report to |
that end was received to be considered |
later with the bill.
In their report to the Senate, the
Finance Committee brought in an
to the tax law of 1896,
which alters Section 68 of the old law
instead of Section % as proposed in the
House bill which the committee was
The new clause proposed |
by the committee is that nothing in the
section shall be so construed as to au-
thorize the tax assessor to demand a
statment of the affairs of any person
or copartnership conducting a purely |
mercantile business. The new bill pass |
ed the first reading and went to the |
Printing Committee. Bill is was laid |
on the table.
