Thore hns been a story In efroula- tion—by onoman—that a purse of £,000 hes boen ralsed to defeat tho bill. Tho cleculator of that story, and tho only one so far as discovered up to date, I3 none other than THE PUTATIVE AUTIIOR of tho Antl-FPual-Selling blll, Senntor Do Lang himself. As for ex~mombera approuching sport- ing men in Chicago, and Intimating that It would be well to put up $1,000 for the benefit of amemberof tha Leglsiature, such u thing (s very possible. One or two ex-members aro suspeeted of dolug that sort of thing in con- nection with nbout evory measuce affcoting particular interests thut comes up, und of pro- tending to control men who are heyond the FAINTEST SUSPICION OF CROOKEDNFSS, Tho bnine thing was done two yenrs ugo, and 18 no donbt being douv this thno, not only by ver- tuln scaly ox-mombers, but by tho zeneral run of small tobbylsts whose stories would lead one to bellove that thoy controlled nbout everybody intho Legistature and wero uble to soll thom hand over hat, time and ugain, Tho facts about tho Poul Wil are simple enough. 1t was intro- duced lnto tho Henate by Senator Do Lang,— thouglr « *protty-well authenticated rumor credits - THIS PARTIOULAI BRAIN-PROGENY to anothior man whose scat Is not far off from tho nominnl nuthor's,—and wont through that ‘hody without any friction. When It got into the House, it was roferred to tho Committoe ou Corporations. The Commnitteoe carciully consid- ered ft,heard, as was proper, tho objections urged agninst it by 8, K.

Thore were Just ten out of tho scventeen memhers present, —onenore than u quoram. Tho country mom- bers, ns was cxpeoted, sought to get in n couplo of amendments,—one cxumpting povl-selingg on truck from tho provisions of the blll, and the athor wiluwlue the rural falr premnivm business, The Committue was 80 STHONGLY IN FAVOR OF THE BILL a8 1t stood, and us it cume from the Seuuto in its pristing purity, that the amendmonts woro voted down, lerson, of Grovue, oven woit so fir us toolfer un amendment prohlbiting the buyi and selling of optiond In genin on the Hourd af Trade, Tt wua this tbat broke tho mooting up.

It wus then seon that the only thing to do was to ap- point a sub-commities 1o report buok an nmends ment upon which nll could u‘ruw. ‘Tho Sub- Committeenappointod conslats of Weber of Cook, Carr of Greeno, and Cronkrito of Stophenuson, Weber hna nll along stoutly fuvored tho bill,and wag one of ITS WARMEST ADVOCATIS at tha meoting which wus braken n{v while Carr and Croukeito are in avor of thio bl f i can bo nmendud 80 48 to give therurat elomont n chunco tacarry on the country falcs without bolng for- ever oit of packet.
