LEGISLATURE ; PROCEEDINGS ! APPROPRIATION BILLS PASSE DC— - . AMENDMENTS TO ACT DEFEATED BUT SUPPLEMENTAL BILL IS MORE SUCCESSFUL — FIVE BILLS ] PASSED OVER VETO. , ■ " i - { Trenton, March 20.— The appropria- . Uon bills were passed by the Senate at ^ an early hour this morning after an all- | night session. Senator Ackeraon at- f tempted to have an amendment insertad by which $6,000 would be given to ^ the Civil Service Commission for the j purpose of carrying on the examin- ^ tions for election ofBcers, as provided ( by the Geran Election Law, but his c amendment was defeated by a party r rote. Senator Smalley, of the Appro- g priations Committee, Baid that this ( item had been omitted from the annual appropriation bill after much thought f and deliberation. Senator Egan's at- ^ empt to .haye an item of $100,000 in- t aerted to pay what he asserts the State g owes to the Hudson County Tubereulo- t (W Hospital, was likewise defeated. . <• Other amendments ^offered by Senator L Aekennan -to increase the appropriation 'fortthe Bayhead Canal from $50,000 to . $76,000, .and'. W jfiye $25,000 for the J, erection of an armory - in Freehold were . aUo defeated. fc ■pie' Supplemental bill was amended J t in several particulars. An item of $2,- „ . 400 ■ for summer courses in agriculture - ^ was "added, $400 being deducted from "Che incidental expenses of the Commissioner qf"Eflut*tipn, and $2,000 from the jj 'item for a lanndry at the School for the F Deaf. An- item for the account of the . Institution for the Feeble Minded was as to permit of the purchase p - of "additional land. • An addition allow- ^ aaee wa*' given to the State prison .( . ' maintenance fund by taking $15,000 •from the new prison annual account. A • motion by Senator Acker son to insert an item ;of $400 for the Monmouth Bat- £ tie Monument was defeated. 'h -- Bre -fMAato bills were passed -otw: e the veto of 'the Governor by the Sen, f, ' TSfenator Gaunt 's bill reorganizing j the Agricultural Department, and his i companion measures so passed. Senator F Ackerson opposed the passage of the t reorganization bill on the ground that n their provisions were inconsistent with the general recommendations of the c Economy and Efficiency Commission on v the formation of new boards. He was j also against taking the power of ap- h pointment from the Governor. Senator c Edge defended the measure, and said t that while it was not conclusive, it j, was a step in the right direction. Sen- i otor Gaunt said that no power which e the Governor now had was taken from n ban by the measure. e By a vote of 11 to 8 the Pierce grade p crossing measure was passed over the veto of the Governor. There was not j, debate on the bill and it was passed , by a party vote. n 6enator Stevens" bills fixing the sal- u arioa of county officials in Cape May County, and providing that the Attor- 0 ney-Gcncral shall receive no extra com- j] pensation for services rendered in V| county trials, except as specifically pro- h rided under existing laws were glao fi pased over the Governor's veto.

GAUNT SELECTED SENATE PRESIDENT The Republican Senators held a conference last night and selected Senator George W. F. Gaunt of Gloucester, County, as their candidate for President of theiSenaie. Senator Gaunt will be elected later when President Read will tender his resignation to assume the office of State Treasurer, to which he was. elected several weks ago at a joint meeting of the two bouses of the legislature. The honor will carry with It the position of Acting Governor this year whenever Governor fielder is out of the State. Senator Gaunt is serving his third Sore Throat Wisdom. To relieve Sore Throat you must get at the seat of the disease, removing the cause. Nothing else does that so iuickly, safely and surely as TONS!

j National Grange. There has bsen some talk of hti becoming * candidate for the Republican ndtolnatSm for Goverrunning with former Senator Jos . eph & FreUnghuyeen, president of the Board of Agriculture, who is a candidate for the nomination for Ohlted States Senator. Senator Gaunt, howersr, has not yet declared himself on the Gubernatorial question. Besides selecting 'Senator Gaunt for the Senate presidency, the Republicans I decided what bills they would pass oTer tbe. Governor'* veto. The result of this part ol the conference war manifested last night when the Senate passed five measures over the Executive disapproval. ROAD BILL GOES TO GOVERNOR. Trenton, March 29.— Atom'litiftM1 attempt was made to amend Senator Egan't seven million dollars mad bill, they were all defeated, and the Senate by a vote of II to 8 concurred in tbe amendments made to the measand the bill now stands passed by bouses, and goes to the Governor for his signature. Those who voted for' the bill were Ackerson, Ackley, Barber Colgate, Edge, Florence, Marten s, Mathis, McMunson; against, Allen, Gaunt, Pierce, Rathbun, Read, Smalley and Stevens. Senator Henwas absent on account of illness, and Senator Wells, of Burlington .did not vote. Amendment after amendment was of- ' by Senator Rathbun, Gaunt, Smalley, Stevens. Senator Egan charged that the motives inspiring tbe amendments was a desire to defeat, the bill, any -concurrence by the Asembly in further amendments at the late hour being practically impossible. Senator Rathbun was .particularly persistent in his effort to amend the measure^ and finally a tempted to have President RejUF ftlic*Tta¥",tiio Senate could not consider the amendment* I made by the House on or after March ' 22. He took this stand on the ground ' that the joint resolution providing for , a recess -from March 16 to March 21 : provided that' only amendments made prior to Marche 21 oould be concurred ] in by the Senate. President Redd ruled 1 however, that a broad construction should be given to the joint resolution, ' especially' in' view of the fact that he said at the time of its passage that it wmtld not interfere with the con- 1 ourrenoe in the Assembly amendments. ' The amendments offered cosisted principally of new route to be added. Senator Rathbun, however, tried to 1 have tbe amount of the bond idsue in- 1 ijfetsia to W.OOtf.ftOh, thafgllig Hit $7,- 1 900,000 was 'insufficient'. Senator. Gaunt that the hill should provide that constructors doing the road con- 1 ft ruction should guarantee the work for the life of the bonds. Ail of ihe amendments were voted down. When the question of voting on concurring in the Assembly amendment - before the Senate, Pierce, of gave a lengthy speech in -which criticised the bill as unconstitutional, contrary to the policy of the State not ] issue bonds, and badly drawn. A way to raise the money, he conwould, be by a State tax. An 1 election where a President and Gover- I were voted for was not the time for 1 submitting such a big question to the ' Senator Edge, of Atlantic, upheld the New Jersey, he contended, needed a better system of roads, and this gave to the voters the right j ' decide whether the}" wanted a bond j issue . He took exception to a remark ' of Senator Gaunt's thit the bill was in j interests of New York and Pennsyl- ' vania pleasure seekers. New Jersey 4 said was glad to have these visitors 0 the neighboring States and wel- 8 corned them. *

Senator Read, of Camden, opposed ' the bill on the ground that it sought ' . - to get better roads in an unbusiness like - way. He maintained that no one knew I r how much the contemplated road con- ! , struction -would cost, and yet the bill 1 - provided a sum of. money whjch might- 1 I be too large or too small, although in 1 1 his opinion it was too small. ' s The bin as amended by the Asembly - > and as it now goes to the Governor, eon- ' i tains thirteen specified trunk lines of 1 ! roads on which the money -received from i the seven million bon^ issue will be i i spent. There is a referendum provision i t by which the question of issuing the 1 bbonds shall be submitted to the voters. '■ i The interest and principal of the bonds [ if they are issued are to come out of the motor vehicle fund. t x ? ASSEMBLY PASSES BILLS 1 OVER VETO.

In his veto message the Governor , said tbe change in the personal registration would remove the safeguards . around the ballot in 27 mnniHpalities throughout the state.
