Council members concerned are Messrs.’ Martin and Culbert," said Mr. Stevens.; "They have been conferring with MSfe.) Lang to object to the suspension of the standing orders in that House so! that the Bill cannot pass through fptj night.” A corrupt thing was being.) enacted. I
The Premier also stated that, it was obvious that opposition to the legislation had been inspired by “the yej:y men whose nefarious practices the Bill sought to stop.” The BUI was transferred to the Legislative Council, which, however, adjourned without dealing with it.
