Show JUDGE BENNETT is confident that the President would have signed the Tucker bill as it passed the House or at all events that he would have permitted it to become a law His reason for this is that members of the Judiciary Committee were in frequent consultation with Mr Cleveland while She measure was under consideration in that body The Judge is of the opinion that the Presidents objections ob-jections to the bill which came before I him were confined to two clauses He I evidently thought that the residue of the proceeds from the church property should be distributed pro rala among the contributors con-tributors He also objected to the clause conferring judicial power upon the Marshal Mar-shal in the matter of bonds While these objections were not strong enough to induce in-duce him to veto the bill they doubtless actuated him in withholding his approving ap-proving signature |
