JuD M INFORMATION.
Mr.. Creel moved that the reading Of
the journal be dispensed with.
Senator LaMoure wanted listed among
the corrections the addition of the vouch.
ers in the railroad rate case, covering
the special services. He said there was
a list of vouchers in the journal, but
they merely stated what amounts had
been paid-not for what services the
amounts had been paid. The whole
matter was clear as mud to him, he
stated, and he moved that the vouchers
be printed in the journal.
Mr.. Twichell said he had seen the
vouchers and was not certain that they
would show for what services the
amounts had been paid. Mr.. LaMoure
said it was fair to presume that state Of
ticers would not pay out money unless
they knew what services had been rem
dered therefor. He moved that the item
lied accounts for which the amounts
were paid be printed in the journal. The
motion was carried.
