Owing to the manner io which that fond is raised, however, the fiscal claure of the bill does not apply to it, and the State Comp- troller wonld bave no warrant to disburse it. The second warrant.was accordingly devised so as to got over the difficulty. The money wan to be placed to the cradit of the Treasurer of the Police Board by the city officials, when, of course, the Se of ihe matter would be ebifted upon j—enpecisily upon the Mayor.
