Since the joint committee on claims
has come to a conclusion in favor. OF
starting at once on the work OF build
ing the new capitol in Madison there
is a determination on the part of the
senate to kill the Stevens bill provid-
inc for a referendum vote on the ques-
ton of a location for the seat OF gov
eminent. Senator Noble, who favored
the Stevens bill when it was passed
on Tuesday, moved that the bill be re-
called from the assembly for the pur-
pose of making a motion to reconsid-
er. The motion 10 recall was carried
by a vote of IT to u.
The Froeming bill to incorporate
the Milwaukee Gas Light company
and make it possible for people OF
that city to have the benefit of compe-
titiOn in the business Of furnishing
gas was killed without debate other
than a brief explanation of the bill
and its purposes by Senator Rummel,

The university appropriation bills
were laid over on motion of Senator
Hatten. One is the main university
bill, providing for annual appropria-
lions equivalent to a tax OF 2-7 OF
mill on each dollar Of assessed valua-
ton in the state, and the other is for
a special appropriation to the uniyer-
sity law school. The committee on
claims amended the latter so that in
stead Of calling for direct special ap-
preparations from the state treasury,
it requires the board of regents to
make the appropriation out Of the gen
eral university funds. This amend
ment grew out Of an adverse opinion
as to the unsystematic manner OF
making university appropriations. 1t
has been frequent and customary in
times past to have general universi-
ty appropriation bill and then multi
piication Of additional special appro-
priation bills for various departments
or interests in the university. The
committee on claims is Of the opinion
that the general university appropria-
ton bill should cover the entire insti-
tuition and that departments or other
interests in the university should go
to the regents for the money.
