EDUCATIONAL BILLS.
SENATE COMMITTEE ACTS ON ALL
 HUT ONE.
Motion Likely to Be Made to Make the School Measures Special Orders Friends of Institutions
 Reassured,

At one meeting of the Senate Com mittee on Finance and Taxation, the bills for the help of the educational in- stitutions owned and supported by the State were all endorsed except the bill to help the Medical College at Mobile. Copies of the bills had previously been considered by the committee and the committee had several joint sessions with the House Committee on .Appro- priations when the bills were first con sidered.
 A motion will undoubtedly be made in today's session of the Senate to have the bills made special orders. It IS the evident purpose of the leaders to have these measures passed and sent to the Governor before the beginning of the Legislative recess. As the bflls passed the House, they carried $1,673,- 900 in gifts to the State schools.
 The University of Alabama will get $500, 900 out of this amount, but the pe- riod will run over a period of four years. The money is to be used as building and maintenance fund. This is the largest amount carried by any of the bills.
 The Alabama Polytechnic Institute will receive the next highest amount. The Auburn institution will get total during the four year period for main
 
 $454.00.
 The Alabama Girls Industrial School at Montevallo under the same terms and for the same period will receive $344,000
 The School for the Deaf and Blind will receive in the four years $40.000 and the Industrial School for White Boys will get in four years s130,0 |. The four Normal Schools of the State located at Troy, Florence. Jacksonville and Livingston will each receive $60,- 900 in four years.
 The Mobile Medical College was to receive under the bill which was not acted on by the committee yesterday $65, 900 in four years. The action of the committee yester- day went a long ways towards assur- ing the friends of the various fnstitu- tions that the bills would be passed before the recess begins.
