J., Jan, 30.—There is a popular impression here that the pud- ding which the State Board of Arbitra- tion has been enjoying during the past two years is too rich for the quality of the service rendered. It appears from the Comptroller's re- port on the matter that this particular Beard has cos' the State more than $24,000 in two years, There are four members of the Board. The President and moving spirit of the Board is James P. McDonnell. His salary and expenses for the two years were $6,632. P. F. Doyle, J. W. Romaine and J, D. Robertson, Mr. McDonnell’ aesociates, received over $5,000 each. In | fact, nearly $23,000 was paid for sala- ries and expenses of the members of the Board, It {8 proposed that a committee be appointed, with power to asl and to ascertain, {f possible, how many days of the year the members of the Board have taken from their regular occupa- | tions and devoted to the State, and how much more per diem they receiv from the State than they do from their customary employment.
