there were erasures in the records of
the. executive emceiis, making them
ambiguous. and evidently the amblg-g
uity must be explalned when it in“
reach 01' not. Mr. Hinman said that
bills are numbered consecutively when
they reach his othee. li a bill was
I'etoed, the sequence of numbers was
hioli'en’ and a subseouient bill was re-
n'umbeted to fill in the missing num-
ber. This led to an occasional evas-
ure in the numbering of bills. Mr. Hin~
uinii said that he established the prac-
tice of making a record of the tline of
the receipt of bills. Objection was
taken to this statement oi Mr. Hlnman.
and the-committee at this point took a
recess. = .
'Ex-Governor Morgan (1. Bulkeley
was a witness yesterday. He testified
that he had been governor of Connecti-,
cut (or four years. from January 10.|
1889. to January 6. 1893. There were‘;
No sessions oi‘ the Legislature during
his term.
‘ln the setond session of the Legis-
lature there. was not much done. was
”1019 goveInoi‘F‘ inquired Mr. Sperry.’
“ ‘On the contiary. there was a great
deal done.” replied ex- -Gove1nor Bulk ‘
eley_ referring to the‘ deadlock ses- ‘1
non oi 1891 i
1
Ex- Goveriioi Bulkelev then said it
had been his custom to take three
- “legislative" days. if he wanted them.‘
in which to consider matters and he
usually took that course in regard to
matters where there was likely to be
a contest
Mr. Robbins-objected to the, answer
and to the question by which it had
been elicited.
The. committee ruled that that. part
of the answer relating to "contested
cases" should be siiicken 0111.,
M1. Sperry then asked the follotvzing
"Well it the practice of the governor' s'
ofllce during your incumbenty of that
office. either to approve or to disap i
prove any no.1 bill or IcsoIIItlon pre- .
sented to you for consideration within .
three legislative days from the day the‘
measure was presented to you ‘uregsrd'
less or the fact that three calendars
days had expired. ""
Mr. Robbins objected to the question
no the ground that it was irrelevant-
and also because the answer involved
a constitutional question. The objec-t
tlon was overruled. '
Ex-Governor Bulkeley then said that'
during his term of other: he paid no
attention to "calendar" days. He usu
ally “took" three “legislative" days. E
.On an objection by Mr. Robbins, the
answer was ordered stricken otit.
* Err-Governor Bulkeley was then ask- '
ed if he had construed the words;
"three davs" in the constitution a!"
meaning three 'Wlegislative days
The question was objected to and in ‘
adt'ocating its admission Mr. Sperry
said he was prepared to show that dur-'
ing one governor‘s administration at;
least. 100 measures had been passed‘
upon after three "calendar" days had;
elapsed. Was the court now to say
that because of that action on the part i
of the executive these measures did
not become law?
The question was ruled out.
"During y0ur term." motioned Mn!”
Sperry, “did you. Governor Bulkeley.
in fact sign measures after the expi
ration of three calendar days not in
cluding Sundays"? i
This question was objected to .31“!
the objection was sustained
The witness then testified that he
had returned several measures with
veto messages to the [legislature
Among these were the oleomargarine
bill. the Australian ballot bill. the re-
prieve of Swift. the murderer, the
Waterbury and I-‘alrfield county court
bills. the bill torbiddlng liquor dealers
to be registrars and the bill relating
to the Phoenix Mutual Life insurance
The Swift reprieve. the
oleoinargarine and the Australian bal.
lot vetoes were sent back to the Icgis- i
lIture on the third "legislative" day
“We regulated the time when we
wanted bills sent into the governor's
office," said est-Governor Bulkeley fur
ther along in the cross—examination. '
"Regulated; whet do you mean it
that" ? asked Mr Robbins
‘. Well it we did not want a bill we
hold the secretary to keep it back." said
the tax-governor. “But you know all
about that from your experience. Mr.
Bobbins." _
