THE EXTRA ALLOWANCE, AGAIN.
Mr. WOLCOTT moved to reconsider the vote adopting the resolution allowing $3 for every 25 miles traveled by members of the Prison Committee in visiting the State Prisons. He regarded it as wrong, and while he would not oppose paying the actual expenses of the visit, he did oppose this extravagant allowance to members, not say anything about their railroad passes. He did not desire to be captious, but hoped the vote of a few minutes since, passing the resolution would be reconsidered and the resolution rejected.
A motion to lay the motion to reconsider On the table was rejected by yeas 10 nays 27.
The motion to reconsider was agreed to.
The resolution was then referred to the Committee on Fees and Salaries.
