RESOLUTION OF MIR. O'FLEHRTY

Richmod, Va, July Is. There is .
good deal of interest over the resolution
of d. @. O'Flaherty calling for
statement of the disbursements Of the
contingent fund by the governors Of
Virginia for the past twenty years.
It was intimated that the resolution
was offered by MIR. O'Flaherty at the
suggestion of another, but Mr.. OLA
herty said this morning that the motion
was entirely his own and grew out OF
the discussion OF the gubernational de-
parchment before the Committee on Re-
duction.
There are some who profess 10 be-
lieve that some very interesting facts
will be brought out by the record,
while others regard the whole matter
as mares nest. 1t is said that twelve
years ago the Democrats proposed to
look over the contingent fund under
the Readjusters but upon Investigation
and consideration concluded not to
open up the general subject, as Gov
ernor Cameron had long expended the
money ss the other governors had
done.
1t has been rumored that Governor
Fitz Lee overdrew his contingent fund
by $4,000 in the year 1888. This Is
not true. The legislature on March 3,
1883, passed an approx ration bill in
which was incorporated the sum OF
$40, 900 for the fiscal year ending
September, 1883. On tie IL tn OF
March, eight days after the passage
of the act Governsn Lee drew
two warrants on this fund for
$4,000.
These two warrants were for $4,000
each, and were in favor of Roscoe
Conkling and J. Randolph Tucker, as
attorney fees in the Virginia Coupon
cases. 1t was apparent from the extra
appropriation that the legislature con-
templated these payments, and pre-
tered to have it done this quiet way
than by direct appropriation to these
lawyers.
Governor Tyler also paid 81, 900 to
Hill Carter for assistance to Attorney
General Montague in the commission
ers of valuation bill before the Supreme
Court.
The law does not require an account
ing OF this fund. 1t simply orders the
| Auditor to pay the $4,000 annually
appropriated upon the warrant OF the
governor.
As a matter Of fact, however, nearly
all OF the warrants bear upon their
faces the use to be made Of the fluids,
| and Auditor Marye will be able to
comply with the resolution OF the
convention, The die is cast and what
ever there may or may not be will be
given to the public as any withholding
now would simply be regarded with
suspicion.
