DIOCESAN. Tlio Proceedings of the Episcopal Convention this florninar Amending the Canons Routine Business of tho Convention. Tho annual Episcopal Diooesau Convention assembled agoin this morning, at tho Churon of the Holy Trinity, corner of Clinton aud Montague streets. An hour was devotod to tbe church alter which the convention was called to order by Bishop Llttlojohn. Rev.

Dr. T. Stafford Drowne officiated as sooretary, osBlBtod by Rev. Kdward D. Blake.

Tho minutes of yesterday wero read and approved. The certificates of lay delegates not presontod at the opening session were then oalled. Kov, Dr. Charles H. Hall, from the COMMITTEE ON CANONS, reported resolutions amending Canon 4, Section 2, altering the mode of electing standing committees.

The effect of this was to enable tbe dlocoee to hold real estate in Kings County, according to tho aot of the Legislature of 1676. He also offarod amendment to Section 9, Canon 3, Article 1, providing that any church or parish neglecting to send In a parochial report fur three years, shall not be entitled to bo represented in a diocesan convention, and that any church or parish whose rcotor or veBtry shall vacate their office, it shall bo considered extinct. Rev. Dr. Hall gave an extended definition of the eo cleslastic and sectional law on the subject of a church which is extinct being entitled to ohurch property when ths case is brought into civil court.

Judge Gilbert favored tho amendment. He thought whon a pariah was once defunct it would be ill adviBed to resuscitate It, and if tho amendment of Dr. Hall was adopted, tbe trustees of the diocese could take possession of tbo defunct parish's property, If it hud any, and hnve the parish go through a regular legal dissolution. After soma further dlsousBion the amendments were adopted. Dr.

Hall then moved that the canons as amended take effect immediately. Adopted. On motion of Rev, Dr. Snlvely It was ordered that a new edition of the constitution and canons as amended, be provided Immediately. Mr.

Cornell reported from the committee on the Bishop's salary, payments of leaving a balance on hand of $1,091.04. Rev. Mr. Baker, from the Committee on the Incorporation and Admission of Churches, reported that they could find no pariah outside of Quoens that had any clearly defined boundaries. In Queens there wero four parishes with a dearly defined boundary.

Rev. Mr. Townsond, from tho Committoe on the Enlargement of the Episcopal Fund, reported an lnorease In the fund. THE PERMANENT FOND OF THE DIOCEASE. Mr.

Howlitt, of llockaway, moved to rescind tho resolution pasBod several years ago appropriating fifteen per cent, of the fund ralsod for the support of aged and infirm clergymen to a permanent fund of tbe aio cease. He hoped the resolution would be repealed, as be conBldered it a very unbusinesslike thing to do to pervert money raised for one purpose to on whioh Is entirely separate and distinct. Rev. Dr. Noah Hunt Schenck made a strong appeal In favor of tha resolution taking the ground that the money transferred was to be used in supporting the Episcopate, as tbe Bishop was as much eutitlod to consideration in hiR old age as a clergyman.

Mr. Johu W. Hunter epoke in favor of rescinding the resolution. Mr. Fleeman thought the fact that a certain nart of tho fund raised for disabled clergymon was appropriated for an entirely difforont purpose, bod a cooling effect on ths parishes, and that the collections for this object fell off in consequence.

Mr. Beth Low asked if the fifteen per 6ent. which was transferred to the permanent fund under disoussion went to THE SOPPOBT OP THE PRESENT BISHOP. There being a number of responses in the affirmative, Mr. Low remarked that It seemed to him in that case the diocese must have an aged and infirm bishop.

Laughter.) Ha did not think it was a frank thing to do to call upon the parishes for money for the support of disabled clergymen, and. then appropriate it to the Episcopate fund. Under ths circumstances he should favor tho rescinding of tho resolution. The Bishop said tbat If the convention wishod to relieve its conscience by repealing tho resolution it should at the samo time tak immediate measures to provido for the augmenting of the Episcopate fund, and if it failed to do so he should consider it a great piece of in couslsteuoy on Its part. Rev; Dr.

Hall suggested a way out of the difficulty by bringing all roctora before an Ecclesiastical Court for trial who have not taken up collections augmenting this fund. Laughter.) Dr. Paddock thought that It would be more creditable to tbo diocese to appropriate the money collected for infirm and aged olergymen to the purpuso for which it was raised, and he believed that wheu tho tlmo arrived for tho diocese to make provision for a disabled Bishop they would do it at a single efiort. A voto was then taken on Mr. Howlitt's motiou, and tho resolution passed in 1875 appropriating fifteen per cent, of the fund raiBed for aged and iufirm olergymen to a pernianont Episcopate fund was rescinded.

Bov, Dr. Schenck, from tho Committee on CHURCH CHARITY FOUNDATION and Benevolent Institutions, in his report meationod tbe Sheltering Arms Nursery in Atlantic avenue as being in a very prosperous condition. The fire which bad vlBited the Institution, rodoutiy, iuBtead of doing any damage was in an indirect way a benefit, for since that time a areat many improvements glad the provision about the Auditor wasn't pnt on the UconBO bill; It is better, coming in this way." "We haven't beard jot that Russell's motion was carried," remarked a bystander, "No doubt nbouttts being carried," replied Fisher, laughing. "Tho whole thing was understood before hand, and the bill as amended will bo in the handB of the Governor agalu before night. Tho news sJiowb that tho Governor is satisfied." There was a goneral feeling of satisfaction among Republicans at tho turn affairs bad taken, while McLaughlin Demoorats, who wero loitering around tho Hall awaiting Information from Albany, wero dejected at the prospoct of the Boss losing his grip on the city patronage.

LAW MEWS.

Large Damaffo Claimed Against the IV. V. Elevated Bailroad. Tho suit of Colonel John T. Harrold against tho New York Elevated Bailroad oame on for trial this afternoon in the Circuit Court, boforo Judge Pratt and jury.

The suit is brought to recover $50,000 damages for injuries received on the 23th ef Marob, 1879, while riding on tho defendant's road. On tbe date named Colonel Harrold boarded one of the defendant's trains, at Franklin square, for the purpose of going up on tho east side of tho town, in the vicinity of Central Park. It will be remembered that this was ths date of tbe collision on the elevated road at Forty second street. Now York. As tho up train approached tho junction of Forty second street and Third avenue, a train was encountered coming out on the Forty second street branch, and bound down town.

The train' wss going up on the right hand, and it was necossary for the outcoming train to cross tho up track to reooh the down track. Owing to somo disarrangement of the switches or signals tbe two trains collided, and a number of persons were injurod, among them tbe plaintiff, Colonel Harrold. In his complaint the plaintiff sets forth that the do fondant Is a common carrier, and that by reason of the collision he was bruised, wounded and injured all over his body, and that two of hlB rlbB were broken, bis lungs'lacerated, and that since then he has been permanently Injured and has loBt the use of biB lower limbs. He olalms damages for permanent injuries and for disbursements for medical attendance. When brought into the Court Houbo this morning Colonel Harrold was borne in a chair by several men.

Ho was taken np the stairway to the chambers adjoining the court, whore he was attended by Drs. Hutchison and Johnson. He was very much exhausted, and It was necossary to apply restoratives. The answer is brief, and reads as follows That the defondant has no knowledge or information sufficient to form a belief, whether the allegations of thB complaint are true, except the allegation contained in the first paragraph thereof," to wit, that tbe collision took' place on the day mentioned. Colonel Harrold resides at Nc.

474 ClSBSon avenue and is a builder. During the war be was captain in the Thirty eighth New York Volunteers, and was breveted Lieutenant Colonol for gallant oonduot in the field. The trial ot the esse will consume the balance of the day and probably oxtend over Into to morrow. Chauncey Shaffer and Abram H. Dailey, appear for the plaintiff; and Field, Dorsheimer, Bacon Deyo, for the defendant.

Ex Lieutenant Governor Dorsheimer will conduct the case tor the defense. Thomas Sullivan's Will. The will of the late Thomas Sullivan was admitted to probate in the Surrogate's Court. Tbe document Is dated February 25, 1885. It bequeaths as follows To his sister, Margaret S.

Mr. Stranahan bad anticipated the reporter's visit and prepared a statomont. He said PRESIDENT BTBANAHAN'S STATEMENT.

"I havo learned something of the proceedings of the meeting hold at the Court House, last evening, on tho subjoct of the Boulevard crossing, and without wishing to criticise its action, I will willingly place my vlows alongside of those sxprossod by gentlemen who spoke on that occasion. "Tho general tendency of many of the statements which havo been mads publlo recently, In connection with the application of a railroad organization of this city to tbe State Engineer, for authority to oroas the Ocoan Parkway, has been to mislead the publlo mind as to the actios the Park Commissioners. It must havo been obvious to any one who has given any careful consideration to' tho subjeot that the Goneral Roilroad law of the State must of necessity form the basia of all undertakings on the part of steam railway organizations, preliminary to any effort on their part to croes the Ocean Parkway and, as will be found on examination, but for the speoial acts of tho Legislatures of 1871 and 187(1 steam roads would Indubitably bo entitled to tbe Bame privileges and protection of the law with vogard to crossing on the surface of the Ocean Parkway as pertained to any othor highway in the State. In 1875 a oontingenoy arose in oon noctlon with the construction of the Manhattan Boach Railroad, which led to a disoussion of tho operation of tho act of 1871 in the Legislature, and resulted In the amendment of that yoar, chapter 551, which required the Manhattan Beaoh Railroad to pass under tho Boulevard, and but for the atrenuous opposition of thie commission to the very powerful efforts which this company was able to exort in the Legislature, tho Manhattan Beach Railroad Company would have secured tho privilege of croBsing tho Parkway on the surface In tbe same manner, and with no more restrictions than apply to the other roads and avenues intersected by their road as at present constructed. It is not without reason that tho claim Is made that the olause of tho act of 1870 operates in connection with the present case under discussion.

It will be conceded, I presume, by many who have constituted thembelvss C'EITICS OF THE PARK COMMM8ION1SBS, If they will take the troublo to examine the subject, that this aot does Bocure the end contemplated by the Park Commissioners lu framing It, viz To give oontrol over the circular area at tho Beveral entrances ot the Park, and whilo the other powers sought to be conferred upon (ho Commissioners by this act are not so dearly defined, they aro, as we are informed by counsel, both usual and proper, but as thoy do not explicitly abrogate the pertinent sootious of tbe General Railroad law, but little rcliauce, it is to be feared, is to be placed upon their co oporatlve action, to that extent, at least, deemed essential by the Park Commissioners. We have not thought It desirable up to the present time to make an exhibition of our disappointment In this partioular, but it is a source of great regret to us, nevertheless, to find this limitation of power imposed upon us, for It is but Justice to claim that we earnestly desire to guard the Ocean Parkway against all Incumbrances to and oncroachmont upon that free and enjoyablo use which has In tho past afforded suoh gratification to ao large a number of our citizens. The Commissionors are ready to meet any Issue whloh the performance of their duty may involve. Considered from an abstract point of view, tho mombsrs of this Board are arrayed against the proposition coming from this or any other company to cross the Ocean Parkway either over, under or at the Bnrface. Thoy aro nevertheless amenable to common sense and the practical issues involved in this question, and will be guided, aa they muet be, by tho laws as they exist.

Thoy have taken pains to secure suoh an interpretation of them as, whilo doing no injustice to vested rights or committing themsolves to narrow minded policies, will clearly fit them to discharge in an intelligent man nor the duties confided to them by tho Legislature of the Stnte. I venture to speak with some authority wheu I Intimate that BIASED OB PERSONAL WISHES will have little to do in adjusting so serious a question as is now presented for the conalderatlon of the Commissioners. It may be noted incidentally that Mr Cullen, a well known lawyer of this city, whose ability in construing tho laws applicable to railroads 1b con coded, has given an opinion to the company whose rights are now under discussion to the effect that the Park Commissioners have no power in determining the qneBtlon of crossing the Parkway, and his views are concurred In by Mr. DsWitt, the Corporation Counsel, who, in vlow of tbe fact that the entire expense of maintaining the Ocean Parkway is borne by tbo city, can be claimed to be the legal adviBer of the Board, and notwithstanding tho refusal of the Board of Supervisors to make provision for a necessary expenditure incurred for legal services in defending the county property agalnat an iniquitous attempt to obtain possession of a portion of It, the Commissioners have further fortified themselves with opinion from Mr. John H.

Knaebel, of thlB city, tho purport of which, as the Commission is advised, substantially coincides with the interpretation of.the law as'given by Mr. Cullen and Mr. DeWitt. Tho Stato Engineer having applied tho Attorney Goneral as his authority In the matter, received an opinion. of which the following Is a copy State of New York, Officb of the Attoukev Genkkal, 5: Aldasy, May 5, 1830.

Hon. Horatio Seymour, State Engineer and Sur veyor, A tuani "Dear Sir Your communication of tbis date is at hand, in whloh you requbst an opinion as to your powor under chapter 609 of the Laws of 1871. In reply, I have to state, in my opinion, tho objeot of the statute roferred to, as indicated in its title, is simply to regulate the construction and protection of railway crossings in the County of Kings, and that it was not the intention of the Legislature in the enactment of said statute to vest in the State Knglneer and Surveyor the power to provont entlroly the crossing of tbe avenue named by railroad companies. But It Is the duty of the State Engineer and Surveyor, under Bald act, to see that the crossing is mado, If properly applied for in the manner and under the restrictions specified in tbe act in respect to the place of crossing the grade, the length and elevation of the bridge or viaduct, if above tho avenue or highway, and that the directions of the statute are strictly complied with in all tbe portioulars named therein. Very respectfuRy youra, "Hamilton Ward, Attorney General.

"In the light of these legal constructions," continued Mr, Stranahan, "the railroad company have consistently olalmed that there Is no occasion to ask for any co operation or prlvilogo on the part of the Park Commission, as the General Railroad law and the act of 1871 give them all the power required, and clearly define tho process by which to secure the privileges sought for." NO PEBMISSION ASKED FROM THIS COMMISSION. "In Justice to the Park Commissioners, no bias or misrepresentation should prevent tbe development of the truth of this fact that no permission has been in any form asked to construot an elevated railroad over the Ocean Parkway, nor have the commissioners taken any action which would in any manner authorize such a proceeding, and suoh oourseas the; may be led in time to pursue must be dependent upon and determined largely by the aotlon and deoislon of responsible officers of ths State, over whom the commissioners exercise no control. It will appear that tbe action of tbe commission must be entirely subordinate to the Stato Engineer, upon whom the laws have conferred ample authority in matters similar to ths on to whloh these recent proceedings have referred, and finally both ho and the commissioners themselves muBt depend for tbe interpretation of the laws under which all their proceedings must take place, upon the Attorney General, whose decision in this, as in equally important legal issues, must furnish a sufficient warrant for the judgment which the Park Commissioners will ondeavor to pass upon this question so far as they will have anything to say at all, SUMMING DP. "Let me sum up tbls matter by saying that the of fenBc of the Park Commissioners consists not in granting a privilege of any kind to the Coney Island Elevated Railroad Company, for none has been granted, but in our not prematurely plunging into a legal fight, in which we cannot see our way clear against the legal opinions of Corporation Counsel DeWlit, Mr. Cullen, our own counsel in tbls case, and the Attorney Genera! of tho State," Mr.

Stranahan added that after the full report of the proceedings of the meeting last night, he might have something further to say on the subjeet to morrow. THE ONE HEAD BILL. The reports from Albany that Auditor Ammerman is to be included in tbe appointing power under the One Head bill, caused a good deal of talk among tbe City Hall gosBips to day. It was understood that a rider was to bo tacked on to the License bill, providing that if the Mayor and Controller should not agree within in ten days then the Auditor should be oalled in. There was rejoicing among the friends of the Auditor, and there was a general expression of opinion that after all MoLaughlin would be beaten out of the patronage of the departments.

Tbe friends of Schroeder and Daggett were for the most part jubilant, and ready to take back all the hard words they bad uttered against Ammerman, who at one time waa "not to be trusted," and was anything but a straight Republican. Some of Mr. Schroe. der's followers, in the admlsslou of Ammer man, a defeat for the Senator and for Daggett (both of whom had been such bitter opponents of the Auditor), and wore fearful that he would go back on the party when tho tlmo should come for making the appointments, An Eaol.e reportor asked a warm friend and admirer of Schroeder, how it was that Ammerman was to be taken in. Ho replied "Why, tho Democrats forced It." "In what respect asked the reporter.

Well, the MoLaughlin people, since the passage of the bill last week, have been going around snickering and lauKhlna and boasting that the 'Dutchman (meaning Schroeder) had been Well, 'the 'Dutchman' will show them whether be Is beaten or not I believe that the Auditor is to be taken in as one of the appoint ive powor, conditionally, that is, if the Mayor and Con troller should not agree within a certain period. There isn't much danger of their agreeing, and then the Auditor will step in, and he and the Controller will make tha appointment." How ts it that you have so muoh faith In Ammor man now? You have been one of bis bitterest opponents." I trrink.thst Mr. Ammerman will not only bave to promise to aot right, but will be down la black arid white before he Is token Id. It won't bo done here. It wiU bo done in Albany'." Anothor friend of Schroeder subsequently said: I bave recently talked with Ammerman, and he told me that It ha should be in.

tbe appointing power ho should appoint none but Republicans. I believohlm, but people must understand that he is not to bo driven' The gossips soem to have been miBtaken as to the way in which the Auditor was to be Included in the appointing power, or a dispatch was received at the Municipal Building trom Albany, about one o'clock this afternoon, setting forth that Assemblyman Bus. tell had moved to recall tut One Head bill from the T.

ONE HEAD. Returning to tiro Attack Again. The Siusle Heatl Bill Makes its Appearance as a Bidor to tho License Bill. The Democratic Miuority Tries Its Hand at Filibustering Successfully Tryinjr to Vee tho Morning Hour Legislative Tricks and Jobs The License Bill. Special Correspondence of the Eagle.

Albaxy, May VJ. The progi amm which everybody has been to anxious to discover wis developed tc day. Rumor had it right as usual. The scheme was to make Am uitrman of th appointing power. All differences that bare recently existed in tbo llopublican party of Kings ar Sealed, at least for the time, and the element which Das(gett faction so bitterly opposed at the beginning oi the session the eloinent headed by Worth, Llch, Ammorman and Tannor are taion by the hnnd for the purpose of mailing common cause against their ancient foe, tho Democrats.

The story runs that Ammormaa's acquiescence to the sohomo was obtained by the promlso that the bill providing for tho consolidation of the flnauce dopaitineuts of your city should be abandoned and allowed to fail. Aa this bill provides that the Auditor's office should be abolished the intaroat Mr. Ammerraan had in it is shown at once. Further the story goes that Sir. Ammorman is promised the nomination for that office next Fall.

Worth is to be given the Fire Department and Lsich an as6essor Bhip, while Tanner is to be left severely alono. This settlement of the difficulties puts an cod to the opposition offered by Mr. Dutcher, who was satisfied when Ammerman was made one of the appointing powor. Worth' and Letch lo.8lst that this arrangement was reached without any consultation with them and without their knowledge. But sluca tho fight of theee perse us has been all the year to the end of taking care of thomsolvcs, and the assurances are given thorn that they will be taken care of, opposition from them is hardly to bo anticipated, for they have accomplished their onds.

Now inasmuch as thepe nion Dutcher, Worth and Lelch have been tho alUes of Senator Jacobs In his flghi against the bill, and as they are now satisfied and have withdrawn their forces, there is no reason to assign for believing that the bill will bo beaten. Jacobs may be ablo to bring thirteen votes against the bill, but I cannot seo how ho can bring more. And as he cannot bring seventeen or Bixteou, I am inclined to tho belief that the bill, as amended in the Assembly, will bo concurred in by a party vote. It will not be considered in the Senate to day, and tho final tussle is iu all probability postponed until tomorrow or the noxt day. The scene TO DAY IN THE ASSEMBLY a synopsis of which was 6aut you by telegraph, boggars description.

The bill that this rider was attached to has bad a singular career. It ws a bill suggested by Mayor Howell and provided for a system of licenses for various sorts of trades and occupations, its purpose being to increase the revenues of she City of Brooklyn. It was amonded tgnln and again oofore it passed both houses. When it Anally reached the Governor it met with that officer's disapproval, and to provont its being vetoed it was rocallod. The Governor objected to it upon the grouud that the powers it sought to bestow upon the local authorities, in the tax laying way, were too wide and not limited.

In order to conform with bia wishes the bill was recalled, and In the Senate tho trades and occupations inteuded to be licensed were specified. The bill was then sent to the Assembly for concurronco in the Senate amendments, but not at once, for there was an tinsinJamaWe delay about the engrossing of the bill. Bowevor, when the bill was placed on the Assombly desk and for concurrence, Mr. Wren aakod that it be laid aside as lie, believed that Mr. Russell had some amendments to make to it.

This once gave tho idea that there was to bo another attempt at Biugle beads. That attempt was unsuccessfully made this morning. When the bill was called Mr. Ituosell moved to oonour in the Senate amendments and to recommit to tbo Cities Commilteo, with instruolion to amend In accordance with tb.3 sheets he sent up to the desk and report forthwith. Tbo amondinent was tho provision for the taking of the Auditor Into the appointing power.

Mr. Shantoy was quickly on his feet, with a motion to amond by striking out the word "forthwith" and providing for the printing of the amendments. Russell moved the proious question, and thus gave the Democrats tho opportunity and ex cuao for claims of gag law and unfair treatment. Though they were shut off from making speeches or debating the bill, thoy demanded tho oyea and nays upon everything, and never failed, when their names wero called, to ask to bo excused from voting, and under this pretext intorject their complaints of tho unfair treatment by the majority and tho oppression of the gag law. Mr.

Russell was advised by tho House lead era to more tho provlouB question to shut off debate. But it did not serve, for the excuse for filibustering was found in it. The problem the Democrats had to solve was how to use up tho morning hour. The effect was to prevent the bill from twing returned to tho Senato in time for action in tho morning session. It lacked two hours of tbo recess hour.

Hence, they called the ayes and nays on order ing the previouR question, on the previous question itself, upon reconsiderations, upon appeals from the decisions of the Chair, and the members of the minority hopped np like Jacks in a box shonever their names wore called and Bbot off their Iitt'c speeches, to which nobody listened and for which thoy did not expeot an audience. They talked about all imaginable things, but principally indulged iu abuse of the majority. Some of the Republicans, becoming exasperated, assisted them by taking tho floor to lar.h thorn back, and wero heartily welcomed by their Democratic opponents. Whenovor a Democrat arose the rest of the House groaned in derision, and the Democrats shouted back, "Bulldozing 1" "Intimidation laughing aloud us they did ao. THE HOUSE BECAME CXHULY and the members began to throw pamphlets done up for the mail at eaoh other.

Speaker Bharpe pounded away with the gavel, but the House laughed, General Hudted grew aDgry, and the Democrats jeered at him Old Salt expressed his contemptuous opinion of tbo action of the minority, and they applauded by clapping their bands at him. Delay was all that was wauted, and they Jiad so exasperated a portion of the majority that it assisted them, while the rest of tho nicjority thought it rue fun and applauded the chief actors. There was one man who was in dead earnest, and that was of Rings, lie called for the absentees with the Blr of a man who was aggrioved, and made a many speeches an there were roll calls in asking to be excused from voting. Ho shouted out that the members of the majority wero putting the gag upon them, ho denounced the proceedings aa rascally and infamous, and he promised that another year the Demo crate would be in tho majority aud would crowd the same medicine down their throat. Shanloy, who waB the leader iu all of this ruction came neat getting a fatal point upon the majority.

He asked to' have the question divided aud have the vote takea upon concurrence with the Senate amendments. The Spooker was about to entertain the roquest, when Alvord arose in haste, and protesting, made a point of ordor that It was not a class of questions that could be divided, whloh the Chair declared well taken, but which was not in fact well taken. Had Shanley succeeded in his attempt, he would have shut off the amoudniancs, since, when the Assombly coucurrcd in tbo Senate amendments, there would have boen no bill before the House. This tbo quick wit of Alrord discovered, and was probably the only man in tho House, save who did appreciate the point. He gave the alarm, and Stanley's shrewd device was of no avail.

However.the minority accomplished its purpose It was fifteen minutes of two when the last vote was announced. Bef ore the bill could be announced from the desk of the Senate the honr of two, the hour of recoss, was reached. The gavel of the president fell, and the objoct of tbo fight In the Assembly wsb attained. For some reason tho Democrats did not want the bill discussed in the Senate to day, and they bad tbclr wlBb in this matter. LEGISLATIVE TRICKS.

Ina circle which Is best described as the Coney Island axux Boclcaway circle, there Is considerable excttemeut ever a recent discovery. Some time ago Senator fjchroedsr Introduced a bill, the purpose of which was to prevent the deposit of carrion and offal in the waters of the bay. This bill met with no opposition, but in toe Assembly, by some means that has never been fairly tfpuUned, there was an amendment Inserted which pro Tided that nothing in the bill should prevent the landing and rendering of offal at Barren Island. When first discovered even this excited but little attention, for it was believed that it was a mere tocbui cal preservation oi aome Individual rights. But now It is understood to mean that it legalize! tha manufacturing and rendering business that Is carried on on that Island, end it has excited to a great extent (he watering place people.

The bill is now bef oro tbe Governor, but It is understood that Senator Hchroeder win introduce to morrow a Joint resolution asking for a recall of the bill, that this amendment may lie stricken out; Indeed, this is particularly tbe time of the session when Jobs make their appearance. To day the bill whloll recaDtly passed tbe Senate providing that 120,000 ahonld.be placed to the credit of the Park Commission era, to make good soma deficiencies in the maintenance of the Park, owing to the ruthless cutting down of lb appropriation, turned up tbo Assembly v. lib a rider appropriating $10,000 for the improvement of Bedford avenue. This will doubtless be dealt with in the Senate when It goes back for concurrence. NOTES.

BnaseU'B bill prohibiting the building of an elevated riaofon Purman'etreot, without the consent of the property owners, has pained the Assembly. Wren's bill, making the records of tho Health Board records for evidence In courts, passed to day. The Mil exempting certain thing end proper ties from taxation, passed to day, and the question was raised that, under It the Meaner estate would no longer be exempted, and an attempt was made to lunond, by providing exemption for it, but failed.
