Dec. 21. -—'l‘bs legislature m 1895 will begin Its session on the 8d day of January. one day after the inaugura tion of Governor Morton. and indications point to one of the busiest and most lengthy smions ever witnessed by those familiar with legislation It villi also be the last hglsloture toconsist of but 128 assemblymuu and 80 senators. for under the new constitution. the future bodirn are to be cmnposedof 50 senators and 150 assemblymcu. It will also be the lost legislature that can in any Why tamper with the salaries or terms of otllco of any appointive or elective oillocr while in oiilcc. although authorities ditfor as to whether oven this legislature has the right to do this. It will be the last legislature that can entirely change the charters of cities. its solo work this year being to perfect the charters in accordance with the provisions of the new constitution. So that in all ways it is probably the most lmportsntbody of its kind that has met in runny years. "parsing Hours. The senate will meet without many pre- llml'inmios. this being its second your, other than to elect a successor as president pro tem. to Senator Sexton. who will pro» side over the senate as the lieutenant gov- ernor. Mr. Saxton will make a brief ad- dress at the hour of noon. when the ses- sion is called to order. and the president pro tom will be elected. It is not at all likely that the new incumbent will in any way change the makeup of the va- rious committees other than to substitute a Republican on such committees as he himself formerly sun-ed upon and to place (Ix-Senator Sexton’s successor upon the committee served upon by his predecessor. In the assembly a speaker, a clerk and a sorgcunt-ut—arms will be elected and in- stalled. but no committees will be an- nounccd until the usual rowan of a week. Both bodies will send the usual commit— tees to the governor to announce that they are organized and ready for business, and then the governor will transmit his first annual Irma-Iago to the body legislative. The Governor's Message. Governor Morton's message will he look- ed forward to with much lutemt because he will in it outline the policy of the party that will scoi: through its acts to retain power for years. His views of the policy to be used in dealing with the distribution of offices at Albany. his ideas upon the proper appmprlationa his suggestions about municipal reform and his mom; on the proper form of ballots for the voters of the state will all his the outcome of deep thought upon the part not only of the governor. but the party leaders. At this writing it is almost assured that he will indorse the blanket ballot without a poster, as used in Massachusetts, but with an emblem for each party. The po- culiar situation confronting the party in power as regards appropriations from the trimaury will cause It great portion of the message to be devoted to the consideration of means whereby the tax rate may be kept down. and the executive ability of the governor as a financier will shine forth. He will ask for the abolition and for the combining of several shite olllccs where the oxpcnsm are large»; will advocate rea- sonable oxymuiitunrs for the canals: will favor logislrtion for the pmtcctlon of the forests; will ask for legislation to make the roads of the state more “usable; call for a more rigid act of civil survive laws; will make a suggestion for a more rigid corrupt pros ices not and may ask for the revising of I: present excise IllWH.

The number of oiilccs that the governor clot-t has to fill by apmlIIIIIu-nt and with the consent of the legislature is by no means as largo as the published stat-I- mvnts lmvo alleged. It is a singular (not. that the cutting oil of the term of the governor to two years has put a great many of the appointive state oilh-ors out- side his jurisdiction unions the lcgislaturc sees fit to in some way abridge the terms or abolish the unions. The only olllom that he can fill in addition to the military odious. almsdy filled. are those: Superintendent of public Works. $6,000; superintendent of banking. Minor); one railroad commissioner. 88,000; three civil service mmmlssioncrs. 82.000; state dairy commissioner, 03.111)"; two arbitration commissioners, 831.000; commissioner of the capitol. 07.500; superintendents of public bulldingli. 011.500. All of those olilcors' names have to be sent to the senate for confirmation. Special Reports. Naturally n grunt deal of interest will attach to the clutched reports of the spe- clnl luvsstlmting committees of the son- sto that burn iroen busy since the clear of the last Mission. The most important one is the room. of the licxow committee. and slthough that committee does not extent to finish up by the first of the yrrar. yet it is conceded that they will present a re- port. together with recommendations, for remedial legislation needed at (molt They may make a request for more pow er. and it is probable that they may seek to have certain persons who have not so- ssded to their wish on certain matters. lined for crmtempt of court, brought be- fore the bar of the house. Under the new constitution many of the abuses that now exist will have to be cured by legislation. even if the Loans committee does not ro port in favor of their abolition. but it is thought that tho cmumltloo will finish its work very early. as the constitution that or... effect on the first of the your done tot give them any mileage or expenses. In addition to the mport of the lexcw minutes there is a very important com inlttee on purity of elections to report to the senate upon its investigations made ht Albany. Troy and Buffalo.

Rogerhar Char les'l‘ichborne, the rightful heir to the title and“. property, sailed from Ham for Valparaiso in 1858. and the following year sailed for Rio Ja- neiro in a vessel that foundered at sea. A chanosry suit was instituted, and his death was legally proved in 1865. The claimant asserted before the courts that he and eight of the crew of the foun- dered ship were saved; that he went to Australia and lived there 18 years under the name of Castle. but had married un- der the name of Tlohborne. He was so- ocptod by the Dowager Lady Tichborne‘ as her son. but the courts decided that he was an impostor. The law proceedings are said to have cost the estate nearly $400,000. Subse- quently the claimant was indicted for perjury and forgery under the name of Arthur Orton. . In 1874 he was convicted and srmtd’nccd to is years’ imprisonment at hard labor. but in 1884 was released on ticket of leave. He subsequently resided for a time in New York. BANK WAS CROWDED.
