ON APPROPRIATIONS.
House Spent Morning on Items of
State Expense.

BY vote of 81 to SO. the house today
refused to restore the salaries for clerks.
preme court These salaries had been
trimmed by the house ways and means
committee and effort to put the salaries
back on the old basis created a lively
debate today when the Judiciary appro-
priation bill came up for consideration.
Lawyer members of the house who re-
cheney of the court attaches, made a
hard fight to keep the old sa Iaries intact.
Twice it looked like they had wond. Once
they seemed clearly ahead on a viva Voce
vote. Again they had the best of the
argument, it was claimed on standing
vote. Then roll call was demanded and
they were beaten by
Salaries of clerks and StenographerS in
the supreme court were severely trimmed
by the ways and means committee. Re
gardless of the fact that the court has
annually turned into the state treasury
bout $4,000. the committee refused to
yield from its former position and the
house, by a majority of one vote, sus-
tanned them.
Another fight was made in the con-
sideration of the executive appropria ton
bill. The board of health had been shut
off from much of the revenue it enjoyed
in former years and several assistants
would have been Iegislated out of job
by virtue of the proposed bill. After a
lengthy controversy, the house voted to
restore one food inspector and TO leave
salaries a little nearer the original figures
than the committee had placed them The
salary of DR.: Crumbine, secretary re-
mains at 5000.
In considering the appropriation for
the reference library, the committee had
reduced the expense by removing one
clerk. The house voted to restore this
assistant on recommendation of members
of the committee, who had reconS1dered
their former action.
Several other changes were made in the
bill before it's final passage The entire
morning was consumed in consideration

TRIM MAHIN BILL.
No Fees for County Clerks on Liquor
SHIPMENTS.

The house temperance committee
has trimmed the Mahin liquor ship
ment bill in accordance with their
own notions. In a report made on the
floor this afternoon, the committee
announced that it had removed the
provision from the regular bill which
provides fee of ten cents to the
county clerk for recording each indi-
vidual shipment
1T was over the fee to the county
clerk provision that the greatest OBJ
lection to the bill was raised. Figures
showed that these fees would amount
10 nearly $4,000 year and the tenn
perance committee promptly removed
mat section from the measure which
mas been adopted in the senate.
Another section amputated by the
mouse committee referred to reports by
frelght and express companies. Ma
MN S bill provided that reports should
be made every three days. The COM
m1ttee amended the bill to require
only monthly reports to the county
clerks concerning the individual ship
mentS of liquor to KanSans

CUTS into TRADE.

Paris Marcn S.-The chief consulting
engineer of the Suez canal, Edouard NJ.
Quellenneck. does not share the view pre-
Vailing in Europe that the Panama canal
will have only slight effect on the trade
of the old world. He told the Commercial
and Industrial association of France to-
day that the new canal would favor to
high degree exchanges between eastern
North America and the Pacific coast and
would create fresh currents of commerce
between the United States and the far
east 1t would also establish serious COM
petition with Europe for the trade of
those parts of the world. Still tire Suez
canal would remain, in his opinion, M
menSeiV impOrtant.
