Governor Hadley asserted that the pro

prlatlon of $26,000 for a statue of Abraham
Lincoln on the state capltol grounds, con
ditioned on the donation of a fund of $10,000
by the citizens of the state. At a session
of the senate flnanre ways and means com-,
mlttee this morning with the members of
the Abraham Lincoln Memorial association
this matter was discussed and a favorable
report was made to the proposition of the

the state's share in the statue erection pro
vides an appropriation of $15,000. This will
be amended In the senate to $25,000 on the

CARRIES
HIS
POIXT
SENATE TO TAKE ANOTHER REST
After Some Cavstle Debate Decides to
Lay Off Today.
(From a Staff Correspondent.)
LINCOLN, Jan. 21. (Special. )-The sen
ate, after holding a brief session this
morning, agreed to adjourn until 2 o'clock
Monday afternoon. The long adjournments
have put some of the senators In a frame
of mind to object, but it has been declared
the business is not In shape for advantage
ous procedure, and as a dozen of the mem
bers were absent the motion to stop until
next week was agreed to without difficulty.
This Is the third week of the session and
the senate has net been In committee of
the whole yet. Senator Kl -g of Folk county
asked today whether the upper house did
not think it about time to get down to
business, "if it was able to do any busi
ness at all." This gentle roast fell on
deaf ears and the week-end adjournment
followed. Today was the thirteenth legis
lative day for the senators.
Two tills were reported from commit

olution to amend section 24 f article I
of lb constitution of the stale. Gives
Bill to Have C'anvasilnar Board De
clare Amendment Votes.
(From a Staff Correspondent.)
LINCOLN. Jan. 22. (Speclal.)-The way
the house followed the advice of Taylor
of Custer county today In recommending
for passage his bill providing for the state
canvassing board to canvass the vote on
constitutional amendments, shows a won
derful change of sentiment since Senator
Ransom bulled through his proceedings
for the legislature to do this work the
other day.
Wilson of Polk county attempted to head
off favorable action on the bill, but tho
house refused to take Taylor's advice once
and got tangled up In "Ransom's folly,"
so Wilson could not stem the tide. He
tried to be consistent and urged the mem
bers to vote down the favorable recom
mendation because, he said, this duty
should devolve upon the legislature. But
Taylor talked in favor of his bill and so
did Klllen of Gage and Bowman of Nuck
olls and others, and It went through the
committee of the whole in a whoop.
The bill simply makes It plain that it
shall be the duty of the state canvassing
board to canvass the vote on constitutional
amendments and leaves no chance for a
Ransom or any other man who desires to
disrupt the supreme court to misread It.
The house followed the suggestion of
Taylor again when he moved to have the
finance committee report the salary, fees
and current expense appropriation bills
back to the house by the thirtieth day of
the session. Several of the members took
exception to this because Clark of Richard
son county, the chairman, was not present,
but It had no effect. Taylor told the
members that If they gave the finance com
mittee thirty days In which to pass upon
these measures the committee should give
the house the same pumber of days. Net
tleton, Klllen and others spoke for the
motion. When the vote was taken the
motion was carried unanimously.

HOUSE PASSES NAVAL BILL
(Continued from First Page.)
158 to 108. No other amendment being of
fered the negative action on the amend
ments had the effect of retaining in the
bill the two battleshlpa provision.
Another lively debate occurred over an
amendment by Mr. Macon (Ark.) striking
out the provision for five torpedo boat de
stroyers, but the amendment was voted
down.
Some criticism of the Navy department
was heard In connection with amounts pro
posed In connection with the appropriation
for colliers. In the case of one of them
$1,000,000 was fixed as the price, while the
other four called for a cost of $900,000 each.
An amendment by Mr. Fitzgerald (N. Y).
was adopted fixing the limit of cost of each
at $900,000. As amended the bill was then
passed.

valuation of railroad and public
service corporation property will soon be
discussed by the Joint -house and senate
committee on railroads named for this
work. Senator Ollls of Valley county,

and asking recommendations on the matter.
Today Commissioner Clarke, writing for
the board, replied with such Information
as was at hand. He said the board much
needed a corps of engineers and that the
employment of such a body of experts
would assist much In the work contem

telephone systems In the state, many of
the companies not knowing what they have
actually expended and not keeping accurate
account of physical conditions.

show what such wotk had cost other states
