Brooklyn Men Will Fight for the Charities Bill, Bradley Will Vote for Reorganiza- tion on Certain Condition:.

The probable results of these three new complcations will be that the Brooklyn gang will fail in its efforts to nullify the veto; that the Greater New York will will fail toy that the Po- Lee bill will suffer a similar fate. Shortly after the Assembly was to orler the veto message wa hulz arose and criticised tie ( The veto could not prop- erly be recelved by the A mibty tn ites regular order, he sald, and he asked that his protest against its reception be en- tered on the record. request was granted, and then Jved with. bole tel t war with ng that he m- tes vy with jovernor and disco’ essed claws, Foley then advanced an opinion that the fighting of the veto was irregular and caied from Mr, Ainsworth the assurance that Gov Mor- ton was simply, doing what Hil always) did.

Commissioners will sit as an fn- vestigating committee, with all the pow- ers of the Lexow Comunittee, except that of punishing witnesses for con- tempt. The news leaked out to-day, and there Was much uneasiness exhibited among the various departments, Shortly after Mayor Strong took his seat he became satistied that there was much to be explained about the manner In which the several departments han- dled public business, He called upon Corporation Counsel Scott and got his opinion as to what were the actual powers of the Commissioners of Accounts, Mr, Scot: looked up the law and re- ported that the full powers of the Com- mission had never, he thought, been fully exercised, and that under the law the Commissioners could sit as an In- vestigating Committee, and could legally subpoena witnesses and compel them under oatn ro tell what they knew con- cerning matters pertaining to the con- duct of affairs in the Department in which they were employed. In faci, the only doubt which the Cor- poration Counse! expressed was that re- garding the powers of the Commission in the matter of punishing witnesses tor tefusal to testify.
