LEGISLATURE VOTED
MONEY ILLEGALLY

Court Decision Gives Governor Right
to Veto Appropriations in Part
State Departments Without Funds
as Result Of Ruling.
Springfield, I'LL, Aug. 2s.-The COVER
nor Of Illinois has power to veto parts
of approprlations made by the legis-
lature without vetoing the entire
items, according to a decision handed
down today by Judge James Creighton,
of the Sangamon county circuit court.
The question of a governors power IN
this connection was one of-the topics
discussed at governors conference in
Boston this week.
Declaring they had been passed in
incorrect form the court knocked out
appropriations of $29O,0O0. This action
may necessitate an extra session Of the
legislature in order that state depart
ments may have enough money with
which to operate.
This decision was made in case
brought by John c. Fergus, Chicago
taxpayer"
Members Of the legislature may be
forced to refund to the state $4,000.
which they appropriated to themselves
for travelling expenses.

Teutons Continue to Advances.

Berlin, via London, Aug. 2s.-Teu-
tonic pressure against the Russians In
eastern Galicia has resulted in the
piercing of the Russian lines along the
Zlota Lipa river, it was officially an
nounced today by the German army
headquarters
1t was also announced that the town
of Narew, about twenty miles south
east of Bialystok, had been occupied
by the Germans.
Since the Austro- Germans In their
drive thru Galicia in May and June
threw the Russians back upon the line
Of the Dneister and the Zlota Lipa and
Gniiu Lipa rivers, late IN June. there
has been comparative inactivity along
this front so far as the official reports
have indicated.
Today's statement from German
army headquarters that the Russian
lines on the Zlota Lipa had been broken
thru apparently means that the Teu-
tonic forces are renewing their thrusts
in Galician territory.
The occupation Of the town OF
Narew, also reported today. records a
farther advance OF the German armies
pushing eastward from the Bialystok-
Bielsk line.
