MAY HAVE TO BORROW
Legislative Expense May Exceed the
Available State Funds


Legislative Expense May Exceed the
Available State Funds.
The state may have to borrow money
from the banks to pay the expenses of the
extra session. When the tax levy was
made last year it did not take into ac-
count the expenses of this session, and
already the revenue fund" is dangerous
ly low.
Under the law the state treasurer Is
permitted to overdraw this fund 100000.
On Feb. 1 the overdraft was about $780,
900. To this has since been added an ex-
pense appropriation of $4,000; and that,
all bills. However, there Is surplus OF
about $4,000 from the expense approprt--
alton of the last session; and this will
a little more than pay the mileage al
ready voted, thus leaving SAC. O00 to pay
the per diem of members and employees,
the printing expenses and other items.
Daily expenses while in session average
about $1,000; and the presnt session
promises to be somewhat more protracted
than was at first expected. The tax COM
mittee of the house may possibly report
late this week; but no report will be made
in the senate until next week, at the ear
Hest.
Following the reception of the commit
tee reports, the fight will begin in earnest
In both bodies and ultimately a confer
ence committee will probably have to be
appointed. All this will take time. and
the session will undoubtedly run over the
thirty day limit originally set.
The oyerdraft on the revenue fund Isl
due largely to the retirement of $115, 900
reform school certificates, which were
paid of last July. These cert ificates
were bearing interest at the rate of six
per cent, and it was deemed wise to retire
them even II money had to be borrowed
later. and It was known that the banks
would gladly loan at four per cent under
existing conditions In the money market.

PRESIDENTS
son WORSE
Pneumonia Attacks the Other
Lung.
FATHER BY BEDSIDE
Reassuring Statement Made by the
Physician.
NO IMMEDIATE DANGER, HE SAYS
Disease, Which Is Taking It's Ex-
pected Course, Will Reach
the Crisis Wednesday.

Groton, Mass. Feb. 10.-The condition
OF Theodore Roosevelt. lr., was slightly
less favorable this morning but not be-
yond what the doctors were looking for.
The lung hitherto clear was found by
the doctors to be affected by. the disease
and the respiration and temperature were
higher, but the pulse was better. the
patient was overjoyed on seeing his
father, who arrived Saturday night.
While the medical attendants claim that
the patients condition is not alarming, no
attempt is made to conceal the fact that
the complication of the second lung gives
the case more serious aspect.
Mrs. Roosevelt slept on cot by her
sons side; during the night, while the
president remained in the home of Mr..
Gardner, adjoining the school. He was
by Mrs. Roosevelt apd few minutes later
both went to the dormitory.
The visit of the father and mother
seemed to brighten up the patient con-
siderably. From the statements of the
physician, DR.. George D. Shattuck, of Bos-
ton, it appears that the crisis of the dis
ease will be reached on Wednesday, and
show some seemingly unfavorable reports,
but they will be due to nothing more than
the regular course of the disease
No plans have yet been made for the
return of President Roosevelt to Washing
ton. He can remain in Groton for ten
days at least so far as the pressure of pub
Ito business is concerned. It seems prob
able that it will be a week before he
leaves Every facility has been given him
with"regard to communication with Wash
ington.
Specialist Summoned.
I President and Mrs. Roosevelt were with
the sick boy all the forenoon. Young
Theodore asked for his father early in
the day and seemd anxious that he should
remain with him. A special messenger
arrived from Washington at 1890 bringing
documents requiring the presidents at
:tention. Secretary Cortelyou said to-day
that in order that the young patient
should have the benefit of the highest
medical skill, prominent New York
specialist in pulmonary diseases had beer
asked to come to Groton. He will arrive
night.

THE SENATE'S ATTITUDE
All Committeeman Favor Some Code
Bank Tax Law. e.

There is no member Of the senate tax
committee who is opposed to the adop-
ton of the tax code. On the other hand
there is no member Of the committee who
will support the code in its entirety, as
presented by the tax commission. The
fight for the committees report will be
led by Senator Young, while the oppose
ton will probably be headed by Senator
Sheehan, although he himself says that
no program can be outlined until the re-
port is presented.
representatives of the state bankers
who appeared before the senate commit
tee last week, have a deeper interest in
killing off the section reported by the
tax commission, and providing for dis
closure of deposits, than was at first
supposed. They based their fight on the
ground that, while the present law en-
braces the same feature contained in the
new, it has not been enforced and that
the new law places the assessors in po-
sition where they will have to enforce it
or beccsse liable to punishment for neg
lect of duty.
| Let's All the Banks Out.
However, the present law is absolutely
lnullifed by an apparently harmless
clause, that looks like the traditional
'.nigger in wood pile" The law reads
as follows:

SENTED BY SHARES OF STOCK,

erty, a statement which he shall verify by
oath, showing the amount Of all deposits made
with them by other parties.

ties the obvious intention OF the section,
