Though the not which established
the customs court salaries of the Ind
tlces at $10,000, the House. in consider-
ing the appropriation bill. voted only
salaries of $7.000. Tints the new judz-
es were placed on a level with other
. federal judges, who also receive S7.-
000 per annum, whereas the intention
in framing the law was. by means of a
higher salary, to insure the services
of the ‘very highest type of men on the
new bench.
To Avoid Diacrcpancy.
When the hill come to the senate
from the iloune,‘lt was proposed to
avoid the discrepancy between the
law and the not...» appropriation by
passing an amendment, to the effect
that hereafter ‘ the salaries of such

Sennuir Bulkoiey at Once called a

or words. he contended that tho
unlendnicnt was not in order. as it
affected the thrift law, a subject not
before the senate at that moment.

by those favoring the reduction, that
to urccpl his point of order, and pro-
ceed with the bill without the amend.
mom would have been to commit the
senate to the 310,000 salary propost

Senator liule saved the situation.
therefore. for those interests. by mov—
ing luttncdlntely that the matter be.
sent to conference. Thus the senate.
was saved from going on record as in

of a joint conference between the
