There was quite a busy time at the
State house today, particularly in the
House Of Representatives. where busi-
ness was transacted in a very lively
manner. In the Senate the business
was largely of routine nature. the
only matter which called for discussion
being Senator Banigans resolution fdr
final adjournment on March %. which
was practically defeated by being re-
ferred to the judiciary committee.
In the House an act was passed in
concurrence, increasing the capital
stock OF the Industrial Trust company
from $1,000 600 to $1,000, 900. and an act
Incorporating the Slater Trust COM
pany Of Pawtucket was passed. under
a suspension of the rules. There was a
long calendar, and the act to amend
the charter of the Providence Institu-
ton for Savings, which was up for pas
sage. was referred back to the COM
mittee on corporations.
The few Democrats in the House this
morning developed a policy of general
opposition TO nearly all -corporatlnn
acts, and the balance of the session
promises to be quite lively if they ad-
here TO this policy.
