Of s31 .030 over last year. a total for next
year of $141. ESQ. The battalion of the
east, naval reserves, is to have an in
crease of $500. This will give the ap-
portionment of the battalion of the
east $500, while the battalion of the
west only gets sc. 300.
The epileptic village commission Is to
be allowed $40, 900. The Newark armory
is to have $4,000, provided the bill be-
fore the senate is passed, and the Sol
diers' home at Vineland s21, 900.
Soldiers Compensation.
The senate made short work of the
a~ssembly's philanthropic scheme to give
each New Jersey volunteer in the Span
ish war $40 for clothing. This had been
tackled on to the enate bill allowing 81
a month to single men and Sc a month
to married men during the term of their
engagement. When the assembly
amendment came up, Senator w. NJ.
Johnson pointed out that the federal
government had already practically
made an allowance for clothing. The
amendment was then defeated, and lat
er the assembly acceded to the senate's
action. The bill as it stands will cost
the state something over $3.50, 900. If
iC Amendment Hdu DttH SuStdlltu, the
total expenditure would have reached
over $500, 600.
The bill providing for supervision of
the building and loan associations by
the state bureau of statistics was de-
feated by adverse report in the house

of these associations to the banking de-
partment is being vigorously opposed
in the senate and may fail.

Trenton. March 22.-The house OF as
sembly Yesterday adopted a concurrent
resolution for adjournment of the legls-

The senate referred the resolution TO

There Is the usual evidence OF ap-

McDermott presented a petition or I'M

the teachers are not a unit In the mat

been heard from who do not wish the
