100 CITY BILLS At ALBANY.
City Club Prouounccs Them All MeddIesomo
and had,

anu bhus
Tho City Clubs Legislation Committee issued
yesterday n statement reviewing the bills affect.
ing New York city which were introduced in
tho Legislature In January. or SOC bills intro
duced that month $50 provided for matters per-
tanning to the city, and among them there is not
one which the City Club approves. The Legisla-
ton Committees statement begins with aquota-
ton from the Charter Commissions report to the
Legislature of 1897, showing that the commits
sion intended to grant a liberal measure OF homo
rule to New York. The says that the
Introduction of SO many bills shows that the
Albany law makers still consider tho local con-
ccrns Of the city proper matter for legislative
action. The City Club wants New York city
people to resist encroachment upon their priv.
lcGe OF home rule and to protest against 1t.
In its resume of tho legislation the committee
cites six bills providing for the construction of
bridges. n power which. 1t adds, is vested in
the city by the charter. One of tho bills pro-
vides that the city shall appropriate $50. 900 for
the construction of a bridge across the mill pond
in the Thirty-hrst and Thirty.sccond wards in
Brooklyn. Seven bills affecting tho Park Do
partment are protested against. as infringing
on the homo rule Idea. as arc four which pro.
vide for matters in the Jurisdiction of other city
departments. There are eleven bills providing
for the remission or rcfunding of assessments,
which the club opposes on general principles,
an nnd ib because t the. passage as $ Nv would wnna put a burden
The bills to change tho charter civil service pro-
vision are opposed because there has not been
an opportunity to test them in practice. The
club opposes the bill giving power TO the Mayor
The Board Of Health bills. Municipal Court
bills, and Street Cleaning Department bills. are
all opposed. and in closing its statement the
committee says:
No liberty with the funds of the city seems
to have been too great to indulge in. The homo
rule for which tho city has so long struggled.
and which tho trainers of the charter
to secure, seems as remote and ms unregarded as
in the worst days gone by. The vigilance of tho
citizen is more needed than ever before. His
voice. his protest, his earnest and continual nc
ton are moro than ever necessary for ~self-pro.
lection against alien interference with his local
home"

GREAT BRITAIN OBJECTS.
May Reruae to Allow Our Troops TO Escort the
KIondiEe RELIEF Expedition.

WARRINGTON. Feb. 13.-The British Govern
mont has shown a disposition to refuse to allow
the United States troops, who will escort the
War Department relief expedition to the Klon-
dixie, to pass through the Northwest Territory.
Correspondence exchanged between Sir Julian
Pauncefote, the British Ambassador hero. and
Mr.. Meiklejohn. tho Acting Secretary of War.
shows that the objection of her Mnjesty's Gov
eminent is based on the fact that the ~tfty.live
enlisted men composing tho escort will be
armed. The Dominion authorities want the
United States to consent to an escort composed
of their mounted police. 1t is said at the War
Department that the success of the expedition
depends on the acquiescence of the Dominion
Government in the request that United States
troops accompany it.
