INTEREST ON STATE FUNDS
Senator McCarter Withdraws
His Bill After a Bitter
Opposition.

Special to 1.-THE Jersey City News.'O
TRENTON, February 26, 1902.-The
Senate this morning took up the
bill providing for interest on deposits of
State monies in the banks. Mr.. McCar-
ter explained its provisions, requiring the
State Treasurer's selection of depositories
to be approved by the Governor and re-
lieving the treasurer of responsibility IN
the event of the banks failure.
Mr. Hudspeth opposed that feature re-
lieving the Treasurer's bondsmen He
thought the present practise of protecting
the State against loss should be main
tained.
Mr. McCarter questioned whether under
the present law the Treasurer would be
liable for monies deposited in good faith
in any presumably solvent bank. Mr..
Hudspeth and Mr.. Cross thought the
Treasurer was liable.
Mr.. Reed said he regarded this bill as
simply designed to relieve the State
Treasurer's bondsmen, for with the banks
all offering interest, there was no need of
directing that 1t be required.
Mr.. McCarter seeing that defeat was
imminent had the bill laid over.
