Geos-ge Potts weara a smile today more broa’d and expansive than any ’•more ordi­nary mundane affair would seem to wdis ran t. And yet thers aro reasons—good ones, a t that, why Mr.-' Potts should, fool particularly In a humor to scatter his rail­road favors In large profusion through As­bury Park. v . ‘

Everybody knows, of course, th a t Potts and J, Maxwell Moyor of cheek renown tiro pitted against cach.othor In a battle of wit. W hen J, Maxwell procured Potts’ name on the back o t a promlssary note for $S00:sr 120—tho amount is of bo conse­quence—the hero of Bnrndgat fell four de­gress below zero in public esteem and was counted a back number in tho m attor of sliokneas.

In vain Potts protestftd that tho note was a wero trifling m atter and had no Significance. In the minds of his friends and thoso who had failed to receive com­plimentary passes on the Barhegat rai’ road, Potts was proven a more novice— plastic clay, [as i t wore, in the hands of Moyer. . •

Yesterday morning Potts, arrayed in his newest finery and with a pensive look on his face, boarded a morning train for the groat metropolis, where Moyer was sup­posed to Save ;laid-lhis temporary nes.t ponding further developments iii the checkpassing business. . ......................... •

How It happened is best-to ld In the wonis'of Potts, who returned last night arid faced the sheering popylaco with a brbad grin of such portentious significance as to leave little doubt in the minds of the people that Potts and Moyer had mot on tho Rialto.Jiiffound him," said Potts. “No m atter

where; tha t's all right. I Bald, ‘Moyer have you got th a t note?’ He sa id ,‘yes, Potts, I've got tho noto.’

Then said I : 'Do you ivant any money?' Moyer sa id ,‘yes, I w ant a hun­dred- Give me the money and I ’ll give you tha a6te.’ . -

“W alt hero, Moyer, while I go over io ray brokers,’ I said, ‘I haven't any money in my pocket; never carry it, you know.’

“AU right,’ replied Moyer, "Then, I wentjfto my broker rtud told him that I

uld give an ordor o r him for |50. hen tho man eomes over with the order

you kick him out,’ aid I. ‘And the broker said ho would.’ Then I returned to. Moyer and gave him the order and Moyer gave mo tho noto. I scratched my name Oyer with a pen sixteen times or le&s nnd handed the 'no to to Moyor with my compliments and told him he m ight keep it as a souvenir of Potts,

“ ‘But I m ust have a little money to­night,’ said Moyor with a nervous smile.

‘“ All right, Moyor. Ju s t w ait till I como back and I ’ll let you havo it,’I said

“Then I boweh myself out and took the first train for Asbury P ark anil I suppose Moyer is waiting around yet for that monoy.”

And this is why Potts holds his head up todiiy; H is'cred it and sagacity-aro re­deemed nnd once moro he stands bofore the world, tho invinolblo Potts, who has novor been done not even by a Philadel­phia lawyer.

As before stated Potts’ victory is just as brilliant as though tho note wore foi* $200 and not $20, bnt would Pott!; risk foO for a m noto? Does that look reasonable;? Now, does it?

His H onor Jnmpod from tho bed and the latter began to go up, up, up—slowly a t first and then faster, Until Councilman Bergen was stood on Ills head.

“W hat is It?” ho exclaimed in tones ,of agoay. •' '

“ Be careful, now,” said tho- mayor. "Tho thing will shut np In a m inute and then It will snap and next week we'll miss n quoruhi a t Belmar.”

E. ,0 , Miaanay’s Big Black Pet Cat May Go Out Again.

‘Dewey" was vaccinated a few days ago. Not Dewey, tho groat admiral, but “DqWoy,” tho handsome big black cat whoso position in tho household of Mr. arid Mrs: E. G. Miannay, oil F irst avenue, is secured by a lo n g period i f nffeetionate toleratipn. Whon “Dewey” jam i to tho MlannnyB he was a wild, untam ed crea­ture. Now he is 6I10 perfect embodiment of gentleness. ' .' '• >.■

How “Dewey” attached himself to the Miannay children, how he was given a sil­ver collar, hoW he gradually assumed storn b u t respectful 'guimiianship over the famiiy,how ho rides put every afternoon in a littlo sarriago of his own and the tricks that ho knows, would take vqlmnes to de scribe. ' • ’

In duo ours, of time, however, it be­came “Dewey’s” privilege and duty to protdot himself against tho awfui ravages of smallpox. All tho Miarinay children had been vaccinated arid the pressure on “Dowey" was' so unanimous that tho op­eration was finally performed a few days ago by Mr. Miannay and with, such success that ho is- encouraged to believe that what­ever happens to ‘ Dewey,” I10 .will never have , the smallpox. The yiru« was In­serted in^'Dewcy’B’* right leg und was left to do its work. “Dewoy” grew . cross and wilful. lie sickened ju st like other patients similarly treated and It was ap­parent that hits system responded with cheerful alnority to tho operation..

Last reports from his feline m ajesty show that he is nowconvalescent. On the first fair day "Dowey” will be wrapped in his wayin blanket and rolled In his little carriage to the beach.’

Washi^ngton, Jam 30.—There wiH b<* an extra session df ’cotigress. ' The-president wants congress to* authorize civil govern­ment in theMPhilippines. He feels also th a t.i t will be indefensible to keep the. Cubans waiting from March lto: D ecein^r for action by th % government .upoi^tue constitution and. the relations •,between this country and th a t island.; V-

His convictions ;;we.re j- brought, out strongly In th e cabinet meeting. If there could be legislatidn In those two direc­tions before March 4 the president would not entertain a thoughtof an extra session. W hatever else’ might fail outside of-the appropriation bills he .would think might wait until December., B ut'as to the Phil* ippinos and as to Cuba the president feels the demand for action by congress war­rants an extra-session.,

Tlio most ’ of the time 'of the cabinet meeting; which was of unusual length, was consumed in discussion of the iinpor- tance; of these subjects.. Secretary Root did .much of the talking. He has visited Cuba recently. More .than tliat, ‘ his de­partment has to do with the present mili­tary government of th a t island.; Reports from army officers stationed in Cuba: are tiFthe effect that Occupation might.be con­tinued without friction .through the. sum­mer and ^fall if congress should fail to aqt a t this -session upon cthe* Cuban constitu­tion. But, regardless of the question of bad ' feeling ahej possible outbreak, the socrctary is strenuously' against a policy which would, compel th e Cubans, after they had completed their work of framing an organic act^ to -\vait ten 'months or more for the United’States to give it any consideration.-He* elaborated1 his views forcibly to the president *und the rest of the cabinet. , »;; .

. Jantiee Detnam ls It.

The . president is: ju st as strongly '< of opinion as Seci;eti^’y i'Root that justice re­quires the Cubans- should not be lfept waiting for.realisation of their hopes of self government. Recent information from Havana to the war department is that the Cuban constitutioit'may be forwarded some time in February. This 'has been one thing which has precipitated th e ex­tra session. The 6ther is the urgent rep­resentation of the Philippine commission and of the Federal party in the'archipela- go that> continued improvement of condi­tions there depends largely ou the substi­tution orcivll'for militaiy authority. The Cuban constitution is not yet ready. Con­gress is too busy for the Philippine legis­lation. How then is i t possible to escape' an extra session? Tho*,views expressed at the cabinet meeting, pointed to an extra session as unavoidable. V

I f an extra session is called what will it do with Cuba? Adniirii strati on, senate and house are a t seal- Thus fa r the Cu­bans themselves have formulated 110 sug­gestion of twhat the*.irelations should* be between the^United,States.and the jsland.

In the cabinet meet|ng the drift .of the talk was that if st|jp constitution for­warded from Cuba was approved by con­gress the recognitionlof.independence unci withdrawal - ofythe troops and American offices must'follow ak quickly as thcf'iiow- government orgamzSfl; " -Of course this will fake time. Secretary Root was ex­plicit m his view that>under the action of congress declaring intervention this gov-* eminent must, as socuT as Cuba frames an acceptable. constitution aiid organizes, acknowledge)independence if;’the people of the island desire iK' .This is the mlmin- istrationV policy. Tl^Vannexation senti­ment expected to develop in Cuba and to help solve this difficult problem of future relationship has not manifested itself. The majority of Cubans seem to be for a trial of new national wings, and the pres­ident and cabinet realize thoy. must have the opportunity, under, the resolutions of congress.

T h e S h ip S u b s id y B il l .Senator Frye gave notice in. the senate

yesterday that he intended to keep the shipping bill to the front, even as against appropriation bills, not yielding to them without the vote of tbe senate. It indi­cates a disposition on the part of senate leaders to force to a n , early issue the question ‘whether the shipping bill is go­ing to pass a t this session. Senator Tur­ner of Washington spoke in severe ar­raignment of the bill, declaring it to be a “lawless, piratical raid on the public treasury” in_the"iHterest of a few private beneficiaries and committing the govern- m eu t - to—e5Qnynd inirmr™aggrcgntmg-$270,^000,000. .

The question whether ah Anglo- Gei'man alliance threatens to injure Rus­sia can* the paper declares, only be .an­swered in tlie aliinnative." 1

The Bourse Gazette regards the ap­pointment of Emperor* William as a Brit­ish field marshal as a fresh stage in the road leading Germany into England’s army, which have long been opened to receive her. It remarks that Great Brit­ain,-which in 1807 wjis boasting, of her “splendid isolation,” is now hunting for allies.

B ig s u i t A tf tt in iif J . J . Hill.

Sti Paul, .Tan. 30.—Papers have been filed in a#suit of the utmost importance not alone on account of the amount of money involved, but because of some al­leged scientific revelations that will be made when it comes to trial. The. suit is brought by H. W . Pearson of this city against J . J . Hill nnd the Great Northern railroad to recover $1,500,000. Coaljamls in Montana are involved claimed to he worth ?14,000,000. They are held by Hill interests and, .it is alleged, were talien after discovery by Pearson under a coil* tract by which. Pearson was to have a share in the profits. ,But.it is the elucida­tion of a new geological theory which gives the gnits chief, importance. Pear­son, after 20 years of study, alleges lie evolved the flood wood theory of liie for­mation, of coal beds. l ie declares he has. tested this theory , all over the world and while keeping it secret has by its use‘dis­covered nen* .coal areas, notably the Stockett mines in Montana aud areas on the Pacific coast. He asserts the Hill in­terests secured thousands of acres under, his direction aud aro now-mining 1 ,000- tons daily. For a share of the profits oi this operation lie now sues.

The result, of the. provision in tlie nayy wras to give a-'large auruber of captnlijs an 'opportunity to retire m rear admirals, which, W ing the highest grade they eouid reach, they willingly accepted

Then, there were a large num ber of prom otions,,and tiie stagnation a t th e ' head of the a av y so long complained of w as to a gt-iiat exteiit elSmiQateti, I t serveifl to get,out o f thejoavy. a num- ber of officers w h o 'h ad pdrformed . gal­lan t service and- substantial duty- anil who w ere really unlit -frir serflc?e, but: who- liad' rem ained on ’the' active list, Jjopjbg for promotidii before, retire- ment. . The arm y deserved'this same treatiqentA- T'liere; Tf ere .a large( npm bcr of officers,' cdlonels and - lieu tenant colonels, who had served in the civil war, in the Spanish w ar and In the Philippines, y e t they cannot retlrfi as brlgtidier generals because they reach the retiring age before tbey can, pos­sibly be promoted to the grade of brig­adier. There w as a determ ined effort made by some arm y men mid their friends to secure this legislation, and although the senate committee placed an am endm ent on the bill i t w as de­feated in the senate.

O f P r o ld e n t i a t Action.Of course the president could appoint

some of the old officers^as brigadiers aud' immediately re tire them, bu t In view of the adverse vote in th e senate und the failure .of tlie house 'to act a t all It is doubtful if he would feel like swelling the retired lis t to any great extent.' He m ay select a few of the most deserving men and g ran t them this reward, bu t as. there*are a t least a dozen officers alm ost equally deserving o f sucl> recognition it causes tb e presi­dent to isesltnte about m aking even two or three selections. D uring Ills term President Mclviniey liiie made a num ber of such appointm ents and placed th e men on the retired list. Se­lections in such cases have alw ays been continued by the senate w ithout ques­tion, bu t since tlie adverse vote on the proposed provision there m ight be a disposition to vHtlihoid confirmation, of officers who were simply prom oted to be retired. The arm y bill will m ake 8 number of promotions. There Is an in­crease. in m ajor generals, in brigadier generals, and the increase in the num­ber of colonels and o ther lleld officers will give m any men a lift. A t the same tim e the object sought, th a t of re­tiring a large num ber of old men, givj ing an opportunity for younger-meri to secure general and fieljJ positions, has not been attained I t will be regretted, especially by those who know well the record of the dozen or m o re : officers who ought to receive the rew ard of gal­lant service in three wars. More than this, some of them had served in In­dian w ars in the days when there were real fighting Indians in tlie g reat west;

N a v y S ee m s JVlore P o p u la r .I believe th a t the people throughout

the country like the navy b e tte r than they do the arm y. I t seems to be the most popular branch of the service. The victories at. Santiago and Manila seem to dw arf into insignificance all the arm y did before Santiago or all that It accomplished in tlie Philippines. * For right down hard fighting th e arasy got the worst of it in the Spanish w ar and afterw ard in the Philippines, bu t by two brilliant victories the navy geems to liave all the glory, the popular sentim ent and, in fact, the congression­al sentiment, on JtH„side.__The_nayal_ personnel biil could never have' become a law had it not been for Manila Bay and Santiago, After these victories a l­most anything the navy w anted was granted,- Congress passes very large appropriations for tlie. increase of the navy, and ns ship a fte r ship is added to the fleets there, is oo complaint from the people,V W o rk in g a n In ju ry ,

I referred to the personnel bill as a benefit to the navy; perhaps I should say for navy officers. I t is working a damage to the navy in some directions, and it would seem th a t tlie rime is not fa r d istan t when it will have to .be modified.. I ts main object w as to am al­gamate the line and certain staff bu­reaus. I t am algam ated the engineers with the line, gave m any men increased rapk, raised the marine corps and in-.' creased the rank of a ll its officers, bu t It w as fatal to steam engineering in the navy. No officer now w ants to be­com e'an engineer. AH "cadets now be­come line- officers, and none care to bo engineers. No man wants, to be down in the depths.of. the ship am id oil and smoke when he could b e 'on jJeck .

will tie no startling innovation, . SIjo will differ from'.tfttj woman of the nine­teenth century so slightly Bhe will im­agine herself a reproduction of th e sasne type. She will represent no revo­lution, b u t will be the fru it of th e slow ripening processes of evolution. She will be more Intelligent than th e nine­teenth century woman. Higher intelli­gence will be-expeeted of women, and women have ’always' lived 'u p to the ideal se t for them in their own. coun­try. There w ill be more colleges anti schools, and b e tte r ones, too, in which she m ay receive her training, and w ith a, demand upon one side ami opportu­nity on the o th er-h ig h er intelligence will follow.

She will be sienlthii ttmn he» prede­cessor, for a higher Ideal of health will be hers; opportunities fo r helpfnl exer­cise will be more plentiful. Larger waists, rosier cheeks, clearer eyes, will Indicate her splendid physical woman hood.

She will be a more independent finan­cial factor , in society. She will own more property, earn higher wages and hold more responsible positions.

She w ill be happier than th e nine­teenth century woman, for the best isappiness is - dependent upon two th in g s—tlie knowledge th a t one is growing and. tho feeling th a t ono is do-. Ing good to others..' Both experiences will be hers.

She will be a fa r more im portant'fac­to r in society, for she will be a voter, and she will bo recognized as n,citizen w ith a citizen’s, authority. H er opinion will be more- respected, her services more sought after,.'Site w ill be more patriotic, for she

will feel the responsibility of he r own relation to the public.

In fact, she will be., ah improved Ver­sion o t tbe nineteenth century woman, a more compIeteTdevelopment of the present day type. ; But: w ith ■ all lier good! qualities she wili oniy foreshadow a still higher womanhood which o ther' centuries will-bring.—Carrie Chapman Catt.

The sm art one took the bet and put himself In the corner. Tiie quiet man said in a commanding voice;

“Come out of tliat corner!”The other grinned and shook his

head. Tlie quiet man; sa t down and looked a t him. steadily. Five minutes passed, and the man of will said, with a sneei" “H adn’t yon better give it uptI don’t feel any influence nt all, and I can’t stand here ail tiie.cvenlng.’L ■'“There is no hurry,” said the quiet

LET SENATOR FRYE EXPLAIN.

T h e T w o M il l io n D o l l a r L im i t Am endm ent,

T he m uch vaunted am endm ent to tlie senate ship subsidy bill purporting to lim it "speed compensation” (see bill a s reported by Mr. F ry e to the senate, page 6, lineB 19-22) is a grotesque shani. I t ra id s ; ;

“ Of which cine millions of dollars not more than two millions o£ dollars shall, ia respect of any one fiscal year, be p . id as compensation to the vessels described in paragraphs eighth and n in th ol clause b of th is section.” ■

The paragraphs th u s affected are those -which provide for subsidy to' ships of speed as follows;:

“ Eighth.—1Twenty kmsts'and Usa than 21 fenots.“ Ninth.—Twenty-one knots or over.” .From th e report lately made fo r 1900

by the U nited S tates commissioner of navigation we find th a t of United

- S tates steam ers of-20-knots-speed-or over there are ju s t four in existence— the New York, th e Paris, the St. Loula and the St. Pau l—all of them owned by the In ternational Navigation company (the S tandard Oil and Pennsylvania railroad concern; of which Mr. Grlsdom Is president).

Bj- tiie sam e report the commissioner gave a lis t o{ foreign -steam ers th a t m ight come In under the subsidy bill. Of these not a single one was above18 knots speed; hence none of them comes under the eighth and n in th para­g r a p h s ^ clause b in question.

Moreover, !:! his report as to ships under construction abroad fo r Ameri­can capital,; Commissioner Gbambgr-

~lnin ^hbw sTnbt- a- single one o f these as over 17 knots qpeod; hence none of these coiiiea w ithin paragraph's eighth and ninth o f c lausa j) In qupstlon .'

i \ Again, the commfsslonej^ of navlga- tion reports a s .to the vessels Intended

' f o r foreign trad e -u n d er construction o r contract in United States sliip: yards. Of this shipping no t a single vessel w as of over 18 knots speed, and therefore none of It would, come under paragraphs eighth and n in th of clause I> In question, : \ •

Finally, on behalf o f the prom oters o f th is bill, Mr. Clyde testified Jan . 10, 1000 (see House H earings o f th a t date, page 34): — i:. -

“We know itom Inquiries we hurt n id i as to ichat ships will be built if this bill is psssed^hafc all o? the -s-essds contemplated will be Vessels of moderate . «pee<S—oo»e . of .them, exceeding 17 Anota”— - . . .' ' ' * •too stow to come under paragraphs e ighth and n in th in clauso b.

T d g u ai up, the Ne w JTork, th e P a r is ,

this- SC Pliul • afiu tlie - 'S t.' UoiTTs, all owned by the International Naviga­tion company, a re tiie only vessels either in existence or building or con­tracted for or probably to be contract­ed for, should th is m easure bucome a law, th a t are or will come under para­graphs eighth and ninth of clause K-

The true reading o f the am endm ent reported by Senator- F rye therefore is:

"Of ichich -■ Ijfc millions of dollars not more than itro millions tii 'dollars {92,000,000) shall. In rcxpcct of any one fluent yeniv he paid as compcnualion to the International Navigation canipmiy in reaped of Its four he#I steamers, the AVtP York, ihe Paris, the St. Paul and.the' SL Louis.”

Since tiie highest estim ate by critics of the amount which these four ships could get under tlie bill as it orig­inally stood • was lis s ' than $2,000.- 000, Senator Frye ought to explain Why the. sum named w ns so liberally calculated and how the amendment tends to lim it the stupendous job Which, in behalf of lils g reat passen­ger steam ers, Mr. Griscom, ^through Senator Frye, Is pushing under the pretense th a t he is. working in aid of American .exports.

D. O.—The advocates ship subsidy

i>eforo;th c erit-

w ns first. presented, to .th e by Senator H anna during t i e

o f th e now expiring congress, said th a t i t svaa th e re su lt o f

nSany m onths o f study feyl the* shipping expcrts!aad th e best law constructors of tho country, th a t i t condensed Into a congressional b ill life tim es. o f study upon th e best m eans o f building; up the m erchant m arine and th a t It w as a s perfect aB hum an brainaxoiild_m ake it and: ready fo r passage w ithou t any ainateun legislaUve tinkering.'

This w ds when it carried an u n lta lt- ed appropriation. W hat It wojild have done for th e country in Its th u s per­fected s ta te the, LOtd 6nly knows. T ery soon a howl of p ro test w en t up from Dan ib^Beersheba against th e “unlim it­ed provisions” of th e measure, and an am endm ent w as accepted lim iting the appropriation to $0,000,000 a year., E ver -since th is tim e th e e lasticity ’of

t i e bill’s perfection has been draw n upon. I ts advocates have yielded inch •by inch un til th e bill has quite a dlf-‘ fcren t complexion from the unphoto- grapfiable countenance th a t It a t first presented. B ut w ith a ll th is carving and splicing and remolding It re ta ins its essential feature of tak ing ou t of the pockets of th e whole people som e’ $260,000,000 for th e benefit of a favored fbw composed m ainly o f the lifetim e experts who drew the bill.

T he critics to whom its original pro­m oters have been yielding are all -with­in, th e Republican pa rty and among those whose support has been counted- on from th e beginning. I f the supposed- friends of the m easure have brought upon it th e disfigurem ent th a t now ap­pears, w h a t would it look like if its op­ponents drove th e ir criticism s through it?; V erlly .it would only be useful fo r w aste paper!

T his constant re treating <»f th e advo cates of the bill does no t indicate, th a t i t is a m easure founded on .principle, bu t th a t It !s-a-des!re to. pilfer from th e . treasury m any m illions-for th s benefit' of private parties. None of the changes th a t have been made apply to th e prin­ciples o r purposes of the bill. Those originally provided for w anted to tran s­fer from the taxpayers’ money to their pockets $0,000,000 a year. F inding th a t they had overreached themselves, they- have gradually let others Into th e ‘ di­vide.” Now all o f those originally In nnd those iet In and th e ir -various pot sw abbers and bottle washers a re de ciaring tlin t the bill has been perfectly adjusted to 'th e needs of th e tim es and th a t its passage is only a m atter of a few days. In sending out th is bugle note of victory they- have forgotten all the Dem ocrats and al? the Populists who oppose th is so rt of grab on princi­ple. They have also forgotten a num- ber' o f Republicans who feel th e same so rt o f opposition. They iwve forgot­ten likewise the miscellaneous b u t ever active pie hunters who have n o t yet been lfet.lnto tlie “divide.” The result of th is forgetfulness, w ill be the failure of th e bill. '

There has been no lobby in W ashing- ton opposing the ship subsidy bill, b u t ' there have been some very strong men who have worked hard against this m easure a s a m atte r of principle. Some of these men have been Republficans and some of them have had no connec­tion, directly o r indirectly, w ith the shipping business. They have been in­tensely in earnest. I t is largely due to the fact th a t they have not worked along the usual lobby lines th a t this bill has liiii. yet been passed and In all probability, will no t be passed. They have absolutely stripped It of its pre­tenses and shown to the world th a t the Standard Oil company, which nontrols th e Pennsylvania Railroad company, the In ternational Navigation company and the N ational T ransit company, would receive no t less than $50,000,-000 out of tho $00,000,000 provided for w ith in the next ton years, and th a t it would bo a very easy m atter for a, com-' bine- to be form ed'by which they would. receive practically the whole subsidy. Those who were inclined to favor tho bill as a pa rty m easure are becoming alarm ed ansi are no t willing th a t the Republican party should shoulder the responsibility for such a scheme.—

There a re m any Republicans who do not oppose Boss H anna in the caucuses or th e steering committee meetings who will still lend tiie weight of their influence to the postponem ent of the bill. These Republicans are still not satisfied w ith th e methods of division.- During th a la s t-d ay s of this rapidly waning,session they are getting all th y concessions th a t they can get. They know th a t1 they can now, get m any more concessions than they could , get In a long session, where there would be th e g reater probability of their ‘."being, driven into line by th e party whip. H aying made these-concessions-in-thls congress, tha favored few who a t llrs t sta rted ,ou t to bag ail the gam e can ■hardly revert to . their first purpose when the u e x t congress convenes. The hope of th e reasonably good Republic­ans Is th a t in the next congress they, can pass a ship, sufisldy-bill haying in- i t th e elements of fairness to those en­gaged Jujfbe shipbuilding and the ship sailing paslness. Tlie hope of those op­posed i'p th e sji^sidy principle is th a t th e stencb- th is bill will leave in ,tij£’ nostrils of. the fa ir minded public will m ake it Impossible pa'ss in 'th e n ex t congress any so rt of, a bill transferring by an y Jtln d of a division f200i00p,000, from th e -pockety .of thp peoplo Iso the. poc&eta a t spgcial beneficiaries,,
