Thompson bill was passed by vote
of 66 to @ and without great deal of
discussion.
The Earhart County Auditors bill
passed by II vote of 56 to % after some
pretty warm arguments and unimport-
ant amendments. The bill provides
that the Auditors shall be paid Mt the
same rate as the County Treasurers
on money collected and that the State
shall pay its share Of the commits
sions on moneys gathered for State
purposes. The bill does not in any
way effect those counties whose Off
GERS are on salary.
The House passed the York bill to
provide for the appointment of COM
mission to revise and consolidate the
statutory laws of the State but not
untih after an unusually stormy de-
bate. Amendment after amendment
was offered, only to be voted down
after long argument. Finally Mr..
Willis, one of the hardest fighters
against the bill, raised the point that
a resolution had been adopted by the
House requiring that all bills provid-
Ing for The expenditure of money
should be referred to the Finance com
mittee, Mr.. York. who had waged n
valiant fight for the bill, looked sick
and threw up his hands. The Speaker
stated that under the rules he could
dos nothing but refer the bill to the
Finance committee. Then Mr.. Middle
swart moved that the rules be sus-
pended and the bill placed upon it's
passage, which motion was carried
by an overwhelming majority.
The bill requires that the Governor
appoint commission of three for the
purpose of codifyng Ohio statutes.
The Commissioners are to be paid S12

that members of County Boards of

Over the Appro-
priation Bill
May Delay Legislatures
Adjournment.
A Few important Bills Passed by
the HOUSE.
Especial CorrespondenceD

Columbus, O.. May S.-'rhe fate of
the appropriations bill Is disturbing
to very marked degree the equll-
brium of the members of the House
of Representatives. They want to go
home without exception, but their de-
sire to do so is not sufficient to induce
them to give down" to the amend
ments made in the Senate to the bill.
The House has formally refused to
accept the Senate amendments TO the
BILL and the matter is now in the
hands of n conference committee
which has not yet been appointed.
The Joint resolution to adjourn on
May ~ may have been for naught.
1t is too late now TO reconsider the
vote by which this motion was adopt
ed but II Is possible to offer another,
resembling the first aud then offer
still another to provide for adjourn
ment at later date. Just what will
be done is a question to be deter
mined later Official word has been
sent to the Senate that the House re.
fuses to concur in the amendments to
the bill but neither side has taken
actions further than this. A confer
ence committee can take the
matter up as soon as 1t
can he appointed, but Thursday
is the last full regular legislative day.
The House will probably he in session
all day Saturday and Saturday night,
but it Is doubtful il time Will be given
up to discussion of this bill Tn
should take place soon, II is within the
range of possibility that the session
will not close or May II.
The Wednesday afternoon session
was busy one. There was a good
attendance and close attention to bus
lness up TO about ; o'clock and II num-
bcr of very important bills came up,
but when one of the most important
of all began to be discussed, the
wcaried members began to hunt their
rooms and before long there We're
more empty seats than were justified
by the importance of the bill 1t was
the Thomas bill, to regulate the priv
ileges and liabilities of holders of pre-.
ferrcd stock in Ohio corporations.
The bill provides that holders OF
stock company may be paid divs
dend not to exceed 8 per cent upon
the par value of their stock but that
they shall not be liable for any of the
debts of the company and that In case
of dissolution or insolvency, they shall
not be liable until all the common
stock holders shall have first assumed
their full share of the constitutional
and statutory liability.
Numerous amendments We're Offered
and the bill was discussed at great
| lcngtlf until Mr.. Guerin raised the
point of order that it was more than
evident that a quorum was not pres.
ent. He then moved that the House
recess until 10 o'clock Thursday morn
ing. For this reason there was no
Wednesday journal TO he read when
the House convened Thursday morn
ing.
