He said the mayor did not understand the bllL So many assemblymen promised to stand by Brooks and Welraert and vets for the bill that tonight the Buffalo assemblymen became suspicious. Then they discovered that their bill probably never-rould come before the Aaaembly Here is the explanation: Both Brooks and were under the impression that it was the Brooks bill that had been vetoed by the mayor and that, therefore. It would come back to the Assembly; But it was the Hill bill that the mayor disapproved, Identical with tho Brooks bill. And as the Hill la th Bennto back to tha Senate it must go.

It waa read this morning and laid on the table. Prob ably there It will stay. Senator Hill, Is said. Introduced the measure at the request of Brooka Senator Kamsperger will line up the Democrats to stand by the Mayor. Sen ator Davis is said to be opposed to the bill because the Pat ton amendment prohibiting the city from regulating traffic on the proposed parkway waa not adopted.

There la little chance that Senator Hill will make any attempt to override the veto and therefor all assemblymen who promised Brooks and Welmert that they'd help override te veto "In case the bill came up again" were safe In so doing. Tho Brooks bill permitting the Board of Supervisors to audit the claim of the Ryan, Danahy A Ryan Company for work done on good roads passed the Senate today. It has already passed the Assembly. The Senate also passed the Welmert bill, amending tha code of civil procedure relatinf to'he discharge of mechanics' liena faio had recommitted the bin which eive police powers to motormen and conductor on interurban trolley lines. Mr.

Jackson objects to the bill on th ground- that men who are engaged by companies as strike-breakers are hot fit to have ad much authority. Jackson claims that the companies would not care whether their employees had that power or not at any other time. The- backers of the blU claim that they want It passed to protect their pas sengers from rowdies, and that they bad not thought of strlkea Distributor in this Vicinity of these electric Bubbles.

"logically, on the ono that he could most easily comprehend and the one harked by the closest sympathy with his spiritual need. And If he were to analyze the claims of all, ha would find certain things on which they would agree. Now the Behal recognizes that religion Is, in its final analysis, a thing absolutely Individual. No two souls can soe just the same, except aa a matter of agreement 'Within tha limits of faith, which Is not thinking, but merely belief from or not from deduc tion, there is immense latitude for the mtad to work in, where it must free If in harmony with itself."
