MD. ASSEMBLY
To ADJOURN
MONDAY
All But One Administration
Measure Is Expected
To Be Approved

ANNAPOLIS, Dec. 9.-Virtually
assured that all but one admins
trstion proposal will be approved
without serious controversy assem-
bly, leaders today predicted sine
die adjournment Of the special ses-
sion next Monday.
Had it not been for the desire
of some Of the assembly members
from far-away counties to be at
their homes over the weekend, an
attempt would have been made to
adjourn tonight, since it was be-
lieved all important legislation
could have been disposed Of by
midnight.
To Be Sidetracked
The only administration meas
ure destined to be Sidetracked Is
that which would give the gov
ernor power to remove a delin-
uuent sheriff after hearing, give
the governor or States attorney
the power to transfer a prisoner
to another Jurisdiction for safe
keeping and lay a sheriff's bond
open to attachment for damages
sustained by prisoner in his Gus
tody.
Such opposition has arisen
against this proposition that it IS
believed doubtful it can be over
come by administration forces.
Recesses Till Monday
Meanwhile, the legislature ad-
journed last night until Monday
and during the interim legislative
attaches will have opportunity to
have all bills in the files printed
and ready for action.
Among he important proposals
yet to be acted on is that which
would empower the counties and
cities Of the State to levy for un-
employment relief. Another, de-
signed to allocate the entire %
cent State tax rate to debt obliga-
tions, already has been agreed to
by both houses and awaits the
governors signature.

An appropriation Of $127 900
has been made for q comprehen-
sive program sof assessing the
physical and biological charac-

determine what policy Of fish
stocking should be adopted for
various parts Of the country.
Stream improvements, to permit
production of bigger and better
fish, is another aim of this
work, which will be done largely
through the Civilian ConserVa-
ton Corps.
Appropriations have also been
made for study Of stream pollu-

protection of salmon and other
food end game fish from destruc-

projects.
Many young fish on their mi

FEARED ANEW
ON SHORE
Sheriff's Plea for State Troop
Guard for Girls Slayer
Refused by Ritchie

PRINCESS ANNE, Nd, Dec. 9.
With Earl Collins. %, slayer Of
Minnie Jones Taylor, under ar.
rest here, mob violence was feared
as feeling vas at fever heat over
the shoe ting in Crisfield.
Sheriff Luther Daugherty last
night sent an appeal to Governor
Ritchie for State troopers to
guard the little jail here rom
which George Armwood, colored
attack suspect, was taken by a
mob last october and lynched.
In this attack on the Jail
score of State troopers were badly
beaten by the mob. Rememoer-
ing this, the Governor refused
the request of the sheriff.
Sheriff Daugherty said every
effort would be made by local
authorities to safeguard the priS-
oner, asserting:
I'VE don't want any more
lynchingS down the Eastern
Shore and l am sure the law
will take its course in this
case."
Collins last night admitted
shooting the 20-year-old girl with
whom he had been keeping COM
pany for almost year.
The daughter Of Lee Jones,
Crisfield Storekeeper, was married
to Norris Taylor, but had been
separated from him for more
than a yeac.
In his confession, Collins said
he was drunk when he entered
the Jones store last Wednesday
and fired two shots, one Of them
piercing the girls heart.
Collins was captured yesterday
at his mothers home in Groton,
Va. He offered no resistance
when a posse headed by Sheriff
Daugherty found him, and he
waived extradition.
The only motive offered by
Collins for the Staying was that
he was afraid the girl was going
to throw him over" He also
claimed that he did not know the
gun was loaded.

ANY attempt to estimate the
financial savings to be made by
consolidating the governmental
functions of several counties under
one administrative body depends,
of course, upon what county gov
ernments are to be merged.
There are economic and geo.
graphic reasons why some Of the
counties cannot be merged with
benefit to the taxpayers OF the
Jurisdictions involved.
There are, however, such coun-
Ties as Accomac and Northamp-
ton. on the Eastern Shore, Of Vir-
ginia, which apparently could be
merged under one government.
the counties still retaining their
names.
Spent 100000 in Year
These counties, which are used
as an illustration, expended $704,'
398.25 in the fiscal year 1880 for
the counties operation.
OF this amount, Accomac spent
&37,671 for general county pur'
poses, including salaries; $1031-
216.O9 for roads and bridges;
317,233.43 for schools, and &c.
T28.16 for treasurer'S commissions.
Northampton spent $36,054.77 for
general county purposes; $43.'
S64.93 for roads and bridges;
$151,422.12 for schools, and the
treasurer's commissions amounted
to $5,507.65.
The savings under a merged
government are apparent when
It is understood practically every
officer and employe Of one county
would be eliminated. The county
eet-up is this:
Circuit Judge elected by the
general assembly,. clerk, COM
monwealth's attorney, sheriff,
board Of supervisors, commits
Sioners Of revenue and treasurer,
Judge of the Juvenile and domes-
tic relations courts, jury commits

demonstration agent. road fore
men, division superintendent Of
schools, board Of health, game
wardens. surveyor, electoral board,
registrars. election commissioner
and judges. almshouse and farm
laborers, school board and its
elerk.
Many Of these offices are
straight fee payment PROPOSITIONS.
others are salary and fees, and
some are straight salary positions.

Municipal Research. New York,
said:
'"It is estimated that . pos
Sible annual saving in the Op-
