 Washington, Jan, 6.-The Brande- gee-Merritt bill giving confirmation by congress 10 the agreement made in 1908 by the governors of Connec- ticut and New York regarding the boundary line between these two states from the state of Massa- chusetts to Long Island Sound was passed by the house Monday. IL was passed by the senate on June 2 and become effective as soon as signed by the president. The bill was in- troduced in the senate by the late Senator Brandegee and in the house by Congressman Schuyler Merritt of Stamford in April, 1924, In 1908 the authorities of Connecticut and New York surveyed the boundary line be- tween the two states and fixed new monuments marking it. Very close ly along the lines of the old survey and boundary line fXed in 1860. The papers were signed and sealed and everybody thought the incident closed. But IS years later, in 1924, some one happened 10 think of the clause in the United States constitu- lion which provides that mo state shall enter into an agreement with any other state or with a foreign nation without the consent of con- gress," Hence, 1t became necessary for congress to consent 10 the agree ment between the two states, which was effected by passage of the Bran legee- Merritt bill.

 Sees The Humor,
 Exhausted from the grlling she received yesterday, Mrs, Scott still was able to muster a smile as che stepped from the witness stand at the end of the days hearing,
 "lt seems 10 be the. army against congress" she .temarked, and you know who won In l9lS,"
 A softer note found its way into the marital diSsonance yesterday in letters introduced Into the records letter written by Mrs, Scott 10 her husband after their separation, One Of them said:
 "l want you 10 come back to me. l will be willing to help you pay off your gambling debts to Mir. Moore, and We can start again, have a few dollars and everything l have Is yours,
 I've have split over nothing There has been undue influence. A vuture has swept over our little nest and ruined us, We were always happy happy until the day we parted. l want you 10 come back"
 Yesterdays testimony swept over wide territory, The Scotts' Washing ton apartments Jamaica, where "li- Quor cards were given them upon landing;" 10 Detroit and Lake Orion nearby, scene Of Jamaica party and to a New York hospital where according to Mrs. Scott she under went a serious operation with her husband absent.
 A touch of theatrical was given during yesterdays hearing when Mrs. Scott donned the pink kImono brought into the records by direct testimony Of Congressman Scott and revealed 10 the court the tiny hole that had been burned in the wrap by a cigarette. Scott had said the burn resulted when "JazZbo," an army officer, had his arms about Mrs. Scott in the Scotts' Washington apartment. Mrs. Scott donned the klmono to show that the burn re- suited when she sat down on a light ed cigarette.
 "l mended it. you see, judge" she said as she turned in the witness stand to indicate the ecorched hole In the garment.
 Egg nog parties at the homes of members of congress and army ofi- cers were popular diversions around Christmas time. Mrs. Edna James Scott testified today. There were always egg nog parties in Washing ton at Christmas time" she testified. We went to them. and I went with my army friends"
 It was the third day Mrs. Scott has spent on the witness stand. Much Of the questioning this forenoon con- cerned gay drinking parties and reference was made again 10 the trip members of congress made to the Panama Canal in 1921.
 "On the trip to Panama in 1921" Mrs. Scott said, we wives of con- 5ressn1en were thrown together a ot because the men gambled all day md drank" Ordinarily, Mrs. Scott estifed, the wives of congressmen i Ire not thrown so much together. l We meet only the wives of men in whom our husbands are especially interested. MT. Scott did not care for any men who did not play cards. | He would not play with women ex- 2ept with Mir. and Mrs. Royal John 1 son, who are expert card players.

excellent condition according to a
statement issued by State Treasurer
Banks. The statement was cross
section survey Of the last two years
and was in part as follows:

taxes than during the last biennium,
the state has paid off more bonds and
has greater balance in the treasury
than found at the end Of the previous
two-year period. No general fund
warrants Of the state have been reg

ance in the state treasury on Septem-
Der 80 was $3,071, 45124, compared
with $2,79S,042.55 two years ago.
While this shows an increase of a
quarter of million dollars, it has no
particular meaning except in gen
eral way, as the endowment funds are
subject to withdrawal for permanent
investments at any time by the de-
partment of public Investments. En-
dowment funds included in the gen.
eral balance amount to 23,870.41,
while two years ago they amounted to
