DlSAPPROVED BY THE SENATE.

But Failed to Get Many
Bills Passed.

When the senate yesterday afternoon
reported TO the house that It had
dlsapproyed II. c. r. No, 3 by Joseph,
requiring the Louisiana Purchase Ex-
position commission to turn over its
funds TO the state treasurer, "the
gentleman from Salt Lake moved
that the matter be referred TO the spe-
cial committee on investigation. Toll
ton suggested that the better way 10
get at it would be through the appoint-
ment Of conference committee. This
Mr. Joseph conourred in, only 10 he OPP
posed by McCrea, who said he thought
this personal dispute between his col
league from Salt Lake and member
Of the exposition commission, who was
also a member of the upper house, had
gone on long enough. lie said the
resolution was nothing but a slur and
an Insult ana should be resented by all
members of the house Thompson also
opposed it because II was not proper
procedure, while Joseph came back at
his acousers by denying that there was
anything personal In the incident. He
said the money belonged to the state
and should be turned into the state
treasury. The motion for the appoint.
ment Of a conference committee failed,
and the resolution was consigned to
It's last resting place.

MERGER BILL PASSED,
Quite a stir was occasoned over the
passage of $. b. 50 by Hollingsworth
authorizing the consolidation OF cor
porations Of the same kind engaged In
the same general business In the same
vicinity During discussion OF the
measure Joseph objected to the pres
ence on the floor OF ex-Secretary OF
State Hammond who, he said, was
lobbying for the passage Of the bill IN
the interest Of a certain corporation.
Hun resented the statement by an
nounclng that Mr. Hammond had a
right To be present, while Kinney
cleared the matter up by stating that
the gentleman was his guest. Joseph
attacked the constitutonality of the
measure by claiming that It was in
conflict with the statute prohibiting
parallel lines Of railroad TO unite their
stock, but Kinney showed the gem
tleman his mistake, after which the bill
passed on the following vote
