ACTION CONSTITUTIONAL.
Michael III. Hirschberg, presiding JUS
tice of the Appellate Division. said the
provision Of the state constitution pro-
hibiting an Increase referred only 20
the compensation received from the
state, and had no prohibitory power over
what compensation. additional or other
wise might be voted by any locality.
He cited an instance in 1S9S. when the
justices OF the I'd District, outside OF
New York city had their salaries
raised to equal that OF the justices in
the city That increase fell upon the
various localities in which they Offici-
ated.
1.-The justices of The I'd District have
not asked for any iTcrease In salary"
said Justice William j. Kelly. and i
do not think that they should be brought
into the matter az all We never knew
the matter was under discussion until
Thursday night last. when we we're in
formed that the resolution increasing
salaries in the LIST Department was to
be- introduced at the meeting of the
Board of Estimate on Friday morning
We then unanimously resolved 10 take
no action in the matter. No Judge hete
will accept any increase In salary about
which there may Se the slightest doubt
as TO its legality OF propriety."
Il think 1t would be taking an unfair
advantage of the people" said Justice
Bischoff. of the tst District. who did
not understand when they voted for the
amendment 10 the constitution that il
was 10 be interpreted so as To include
the justices of the Supreme Court i'm the
