Morton to- day sent to the Legslature’his veto of the bill appropriating $40,000 for the con- struction of an armory at Ogdensburg, Bt. Lawrence County. ‘The Evening World" declared yesterday he would veto ‘t. Although the veto {s attributed to the necessity for economy, it is pretty gen- erally accepted as a direct slap at the anti-Platt men in the Legislature, and iu regarded by them as a notice that until they come into line they will not be entitled to any show in the distribu- tion of State funds. Ex-Speaker Malby, who introduced the bill appropriating the $40,000 for the armory, has been conspicuous of late for his friendliness to other anti-Platt leaders, and he participated in the anti- Platt conference held in New York last week It waw-this-faet-that ts supposed to have led to the veto of his bill. “The Evening World” reporter learned that the bill would be vetoed twenty- four hours before the veto itself was sent to the Legislature, and Mr. Malby himself expected the disapproval vf his bile aald when asked about the matter that he did not sce how the Governor could veto the bill, but if ne did so, he (Mr. Malby) would know the reason “ithe ex-Speaker Is very indignant over the veto, ard se’ 1° other members who had introduced measures carrying appropriations, accept it ax a significant hint to wet inside the Platt breastworks or forfelt thelr chances, of coming for a share of the public “pap.” In the veto Gov.

Commissioner Andrews, when told of the substance of Mr. Kerwin's state- ments, sa “That be very good reasoning, but I think the public demands that something be done at once.
