A large namber of New York politicians arrived | here in the a(ternoon train to-day, THE SUPPLY BILL. The only real delay that can now ocour in the | adjournment of the Legislature must come from the Conference Committee of both houses on the Supply bill. 1tis understood to-night that all the items of the bill have been agreed to with the ex. | ception of those affecting the Elmira Reformatory | and the new Capitol.

Gale and several others, A PARK COMMISSIONRR, Park Commissioner Donobue is also here im the | ja it interes of rapid transit, TUM RAPID TRANSIT BILL. Governor Tiden’s Rapid Transit bitl was up be- fore the Assembly this’ evening, shortly after re- assembling. Strong impressions are again cre- ated that the lobby mean to effectually Kill the practicability of this bill, as they have already succeeded in doing with the Cothmon Councit measures. They have been busily en- gaged to-day with members of the Legislature. To-night “Crosstown” Cary, Chauncey M. Depew and others of the railroad interest were on the floor of the House during the debate, Mr. Jacob Hess was called to the chair, in Committee of the Whole, and the bill was read through by the Clerk, When first intro- duced it was unaerstood no amendments were necessary to perfect it, but a further careful con- sideration py friends of rapid transis in New York city discovered some imperfections, Mr. Husted, therefore, it is understood, acting with the con- sent of Governor Tilden, offered some amend- ments. The principal change provides that | nothing in the act Shall authorize the construction of a rafiway crossing the track of any steam ratiway now in | actual operation at the grade thereof, or Tne erec- tion of piers or supports for any elevated railway | pay, upon «# railway track now actually in use in any | street or avenue, | tor other th road | the line of the route, and yot this section revives | defunet corvorations and al THE GREBNWICH STRERT RATLROAD. An amendment, which appiies particularly to the Greenwich Street Bjevated Railroad, rouds as follows :— | ce And thé said Commissioners many fix and de- | termine the route or routes by which any i elevated steam railway or railways in act operation may connect with other steam railwa: ‘ or the depots thereof, and with steam ferries, upon faifilment by such elevated steam railway | company CS se Tequirements and conditions tm- posed by sai mmissioners under the terms of this act, so iat as relates to such connection, TAK VERBAL AMENDMENTS, | All the amendments offered by ir. Husted were adopted in Committee of the Whole. SPEECHES ON RAPID TRANSIT. Then followed three speeches and suggestions from Speaker McGuire; an amendment from Mr. | Waebnuer; another amendment from Mr, T, CO. Campbell, providing that the Mayors of cities shail | ppoimt the commissioners, instead of the Gov- | ernor. The whole matter, alter nearly three hours’ | discussion over tne bill, was developed into a | palpable farce. Mr. Alvord moved to strike out the county of Onondaga from its provisions, Mr, me action for Kings, and, McGuire coald not let the. opportunity pass without naming Chemung county in the same category. The whole tone debate conctusively proves that a strong opposition to the bill exists among s cer- tain class in the Assembly. Speaker McGuire made a special attack upon several of its points, partica- larly as to giving the appointment of commis sioners to the Governor. He alluded to the eviis which had hitherto existed ander tbis system of appointmeat of commissioners. OPINIONS AS TO THR BIF.L, Every honest man and clear headed lawyer with whom I conversed here tell me that this measure 1s) the best and safest that can be adopted by the present Legislature to speedily perfect a system of rapid transit In the metropolis, if this is the case, then all who oppose it and eudeavor to throw impediments in its way must be luoked upon with suspicion. THE BLACK In the den: to-mght some gentlemen who bad figured in the “black list’ of last Friday's Hxnatp undertook to explain their position, Mr. Warren ©, Bennett, from the Fifth district, alleged that he was always m favor of rapid transit | ana would do everything in bis power to forward it, He was impressed with the idea that every man, wouran and child in New York city demands it, and ne, therefore, could not | under any consideration oppose so nepessary a ' connect with the Forty-second street depot.
