HEWS FHOfl HmmisfiUHG i Legislature Will Probably Adjourn the Middle of June. OPPOSING CIYIL SERVICE BILL ! Probabilities That the Measure Will Be so Changed as to Make li Ineffective. The Defeat of the Fool Selling BUI Prison Reform Measures. Special Herald correspondence. Hafrlsburg. May 4. Notwithstanding the frequent recesses and junkets of the legislature, an effort will be made to force final adjournment about the middle of June. It is understood that a resolution fixing June 1 an th data of final adjournment will b Introduced this week in the houe, and that the senate will amend thla resolution ex tending the time until June 20. It in probable thut a compromise date will be agreed upon, as the disposition of work suffers In proportion to the rise, of temperature. Heretofore the mem bers during the long spring days have sought the shelter of thi trees in Cap itol park during proi debate, hut the destruction of the capital and the removal to Grace church will make It necessary for the meinbers to stick to their poBts, notwithstanding the heat and discomforts that they are surd to suffer. The. experience of other yearn seems to have no effect In pushing the work of the legislature during the win ter months. There has been a good deal of po litical hacking and filling over the re form bills, to which the Itepubllcffh party Is pledged. At the opening of the session It was announced thnt these bills would be hurried to final passage, but three monthB had passed away beforo any serious consideration was given them. Those who are lined up as opponents of Senator Quay charge that he was responsible for the failure to redeem the party's pledges. He came to Harrlsburg to confer with his lieutenants In the senate and house, and It was then given out, with more or less show of authority, that certain of these bills would be abandoned be cause it was impossible to Induce the Quay men In the legislature to yote for them. Just when the antt-Quayltes. were about to take advantage of the situation and force the bills through a conference pf all the Quay leaders was called to consider what was best to be done under the circumstances, and it has been decided to push tho bills tp final passage as rapidly as pos sible, and while concetmions will be necessary to meet the views of the opponents of the radleal reform pro posed it Is believed that the more im portant measures will pass in prac tically their original form. Opposing tho Civil SorvlcH Illll. There is much hostility among tho practical politicians towards the civil service bill, and the prospect now Is that hjs measure will be so change as to'lie civil "service In name only. The vjolltical assessment bill will be modified so as to not affect the giving of contributions for legitimate cam paign expenses, but will make arbi trary levying and collection of assess ments a misdemeanor. As to the poll tax bill, there Is no opposition, because it will relieve party organizations o( the great burden of paying taxes dur ing Important campaigns. Since his return from the Grant mon ument ceremonies at New York Gov ernor Hastings has heartily endorsed the proposition to furnish the National Guard with a dress uniform. During; recent years the soldiers of "Pennsyl vania have won applause over and over again on account of their line discipline and practical efficiency In all that con stitutes the good soldier, There has been a disposition to compel on all oc casions the wearing of a service uni form, and the result has been dissatis faction among the guardsmen. They feel that they suffer by comparison with troops of other states on dress parade. During the Beaver administra tion tne prepent governor was u.uju tant general, and he was Instrumental In having passed a hill appropriating $75,000 for a dress uniform. Owing to the failure of the revenue bill that year It was necessary for Governor Beavor to veto the bill, and nothing has since been done officially In the way of sup plying (i uniform for ceremonial oc casions, Tho Question or State ltovonues. The question of revenue for the state Is one that Is giving the financiers in the legislature much serious concern. Up to this time the only bill that has been agreed upon, and which Is being pushed along, Is the Elkln bill, taxing direct inheritances over $G,000 at the rate of 2 per cent. It is estimated by the friends of this measure that It will bring Into the treasury about $2,000,000, out Representative Ward Bliss, of Del aware county, contends that it will not produce more than $600,000. He Is the author of several revenue bills, among them one to tax beer, and Insists that t.he legislature will have to do some thing more In the way of raising reve nue before adjournment. There Is pro pounced opposition to any suggestion that beer be taxed, and there are those who say that the objection Is the result Of campaign deals with the liquor ele ment, Whether that be true or not, It is very evident that no liquor legta lation of any Importance will et through thla session. Under present conditions at the state treasury the de ticlency of revenue is at least $2,000,000, and many worthy charities in the state will have to be cut oft without a shill ing unless more revenue Is provided for this purpose. A resolution has passed the legis lature calling upon the governor to designate May 15 as a legal holiday, and he has agreed to do bo. This Is the day on which the Washington monument In Philadelphia will be un veiled with imposing ceremonies. More attention has been given to politics and to factional differences at this session ot the legislature than at any previous sitting ior many years, Starting with a bitter contest over the election of a United States sena- ator, the bitterness of factions haa in creased rather than diminished, and unless the pending harmony schemes are successful the outlook for Henutill- Continued on Second page.
