the recently enacted license game law,
concerning which Senator Goodwin
wrote last week Mr.. Little holds that
the law was regularly enacted and
therefore he expects to enforce it. AL
though the solicitor authorized Sena-

not in the city yesterday to throw
further light on the question it is un-

to Laurens few days ago to see me
with reference to this matter and
brought with him certified copy of
the law as filed in the Office of Sccrc-

provision. The Acts Of the General

therefore consider il my duty as

ASKED FOR $5,ooo
 FOR BAcKUS HOSPITAL.
This Appropriation From the State is Needed-Senator Barnes Spoke for Institution.
(snecial to The Rulletin.l ]

Hartford, April 9.-The legislative committee on appropriations gave hearings Friday afternoon at the State capitol on bills providing for appro- priations in aid of the hospitals of the state. Senator Barnes and President Williams and Treasurer Woodward of the William W. Backus hospital, Nor wich, appeared in the interests of that institution, requesting a renewal of the annual appropriation of $5,000. The senator said that for several years the hospital had declined to ac- cept the regular appropriation of $5,- 900, and would not ask for it now if 1t were not necessary. He said they do need the money, and that the com mitte would believe him when he said so specially as he was not on the 'fDishonor List" of the suffragettes. MT. Woodward reiterated what the senator had said in regard to the act ion of the trustees declining the state aid during a period of mistaken econ only, as the needed improvements in the institution had proven However, the state had saved some $60,000 by the transaction, and now the hospital trustees asked the customary 5000 a year of state aid. He said that if any one hospital in the state was more de- serving of state aid than another, that one was the Backus hospital.
