cred, Mir Combs, of Madison, contend inf that iilconsidcred action along this line might entail the state in 8 lawsuit that would cost more than a state capitol investigation.
 There was also considerable dispo- Sltion ou the part of several members to question the wisdom of the legisla- ture in taking, as absolutely true. the report of Major Sewell They declared it is merely an eX-parte report, not made under oath. and, therefore, not an official report. Mir Thompson, of Independence. also entered a valiant defense for Judge McCaleb, of Bates vile, q member of the state capitol commission, against the general charges made against the state cap itol commission.
 That the legislature should investi- gate further before making up its de- cision was the opinion of Mr. Brown, of Independence, who i'll contrasting the various conflicting expert reports, declared that when one man says X horse is black and another says it is white. the best plan to settle the mat ter is to go out and take {. look at tbe horse"
 Mir. Heartsill. of Sebastian, was em- phatically opposed to the resolution presented yesterday by Mr. Parks, calling for the discharge of the archi- tect, and declared he could see noth- ing else ill it except that it meant to take the jurisdiction of the direction of the legislature and place it in the hands of the governor, and with the. present interests so diametrically op- posed,' said he, there would be 7; row from now until the end of time He laid emphasis on the fact that ev- cry man connected with the proposi- tion was under sufficient bond and that the bonds had been declared good by the highest legal authority of the state.
 The opposition to any further delay was led by MT. Glover, of Hot Springs, who insisted that he is as ready to vote for the discharge of Mann nors as he would be in ten years from now. and that he wants to clean out the whole bunch" who have had 10 do with the construction of the building and get to work on new basis. M~ Bradham also favored immediate vote on tile question of discharging the contractors and architect, and opposed all resolutions calling for further in vestigation.
 The resolutions, In brief, were as follows: By MT. Holt, of Hampstead, requesting that Major SeWell, who made a report to Mir. Donaghey. come to Little Rock and go before the leg is lative state capitol committee to de- termine the merits of his report.
 To this MT. Brawner offered sub stitute resolution, providing for the appointment of one expert by the gov ernor, another by Caldwell & Drake, these two to appoint third, and that this commission of experts go before the state capitol committees with a report on their examination of all the evidence at hand
 MT. Warnock, of Columbia, offered a substitute to both of these, provid- ing for the appointment of q joint the house and four from the senate, who should take up all the evidence,

CAPITOL MATTER lN
 SENATE AND HOUSE
Senators Ask Governor Don aghey For Estimates on Both Plans Suggested by Him--Also Discussed in the House-Crcuit Jud ge Salary Bill Is Defeated Other News of the legislature

Little Rock, Feb. 1l.-~That the Ar kansas senate believes the only way to complete the new capitol is to conl~ plete it was shown this morning ill the action taken by the senate to get be- fore it actual estimates of the prob able cost and time of completing the Building under the provisions of ..he two bills now pending in the senate.
 The state capitol matter came np early in the session by a resolution offered by Senator White requesting that Governor Donaghey furnish the senate with an estimate of the pron able cost of completing the building under the provisions of the Patterson bill, which is along the lines laid down by the governor in his message. and also under the DeRositt bill for its completion by the contractors as well as an estimate Cf the time which would be required under the arbitra- tlon plan suggested by the executive
 In connection with this resolution Senator DeRositt stated that he Woul,i consent to the necessary postpone ment on his bill, which was to have been taken up this morning, ill o1:l al To give the governor time to furnish the estimates and suggested that five days ought to be sufficient. Later his bill was called up by Senator Me- Knight and Senator Pindall moved that action on it be postponed fifteen days. This was deemed too long and was amended to make the postpone ment until Wednesday morning of next week.
 The senate in this matter has show ed plainly it's anxiety to have this capitol muddle settled and the fact that they are limiting the time for it's consideration to less than a week leads to the belief that something will be done next week toward a resump- tion of work on the structure in some manner
 Under the provisions of Senate, Whites resolution it is the purpose of the senate to get before it in con- crete form the facts and figures of the two propositions in order that the matter may be taken up intelligent]y, in the hope that action may be taken and the work resumed.
 The senate accomplished D good mornings work, passing several bills, introducing several statewide meas ures and adjourning with the lem balmers' board" bill under discussion. It is predicted that this bill will be discussed in spirited manner, and much of the afternoon will probably be consumed with it.
 In the House.
 After spending the entire morning in discussing three resolutions and substitute resolutions bearing upon completing the state capitol, the house failed to get to vote on any of them but showed a strong disposition to make haste slowly in taking any defl- nite step in discharging or retaining any individual who is now connected with the construction of the building. That some action must be taken is agreed upon, but that such action should be well-advised is also the sen timent of the majority of the mem- bers of the house.
 The legal phases of any discharge that may grow out of the action of the house was also carefully consid-
