With the close Of last nights session,
however, the legislature practically
stands adjourned, for no other bust
ness can be transacted along lawmak-

The initial step toward breaking the
deadlock occurred when the house
forced through a separate bill apprO-
pristing S1O,O TO pay the expense Of
the senate in holding a special session
to try the Falcon Stuart judicial con-
test The senate had been lacking
this to the executive and judicial ap-
preparation bill as a rider. The house
would not accept this and finally pre-
vailed upon the senate to pass IL as a
separate measure
A committee Of pOpulist senators
visited Gov. Stanley to ascertain if
he would sign the FalloOn-Stuart ap-
preparation bill, but the governor was
nOn-cOmmittaL Repu blican friends

dent to one of the, screws of the Gin
cinnati occurred, but that did not delay
the boat very much. Generally the boats
made excellent time. considering the OBJ
stacles and difficulties. A proof of this was
seen in the condition of Exchange place. 1t
was at no time of the morning congest-
ed. True, it was owing to the depth OF
the snow that the streets were not full of
vehicles. The wind that played the dick

had something to do with the ferryboats
and had it been northeaster instead Of
the other fellow the Jersey slips would
have been clogged.
The Superintendent of the Ferries said
that the traffic was all that could be eA-
pected under the circumstance. There
was some delay, he said, unavoidably, but
he expected that the boats would be run
ming regularly by noon.
