To ex- plain why the treasurer was iuterested I may that members and delegates are paid by the treasurcr upon the certificato of the speaker to which is attached their receipts. The treasurcr was ch n the books of the department with the mency advauced to .him to make such payments, and hé turned to the account- ing officer to settle his accounts the certificate paid, What the treasurer vb- jected to was that he was held responsible $or the sper disbursement of monoys upon vouchers which he coulil not vorify as ¢ ¥ ad upon wh was_Liublo to have suspension in my In happened that there on account of improper ments, for, al- though the law declares thai the speaker's certificato shall bo conclusive in all depart- ments of the government, there have been disallowed by the first comptroller some small nwounts paid by u treasuror, the comp- troller holding that the conclusive stipula- tion applied only to certificates drawn in conformity to law. The workings of this method of payment and accounting seemed gerous and anomalous and the treasurer mmended aud contrived to recommend in his reports that the system of payment of scnators by a regular disbursing oflcer, fled and bonded for that purpose, be dopted for tho house payments. In the treasurer's report, ulso. the sergeant-nt-arms was gtyled the agent of the members, and this is what he legally was and is. lhe only direct authority for the serceant-at- arms to disburse salaries and mileage of members 18 coutained in the rules ot the house which provide that ‘he shall keep the accounts of the pay and mileage of members and pay them as ]!ru\.ldmi by | This bewg a rule only, and of one_house alone, has not the ' authority of .

In fact, 8o convenient is it that often members have deposited and left with the sergeant at-arms funds derived from sources other than their compensation, and to quite large amounts.” +'If such funds were on hand and misap- plied could the ofiicer be held responsibie on his bond to the United States?” **Clearly not.
