Canal and Workmen’s Com- pensation Acts Are Side- tracked by Conference. ALBANY, May 2.—Shortly after 1 o'clock the Assembly was con- vened, with a hundred members pre: ‘ent, and the final moves were made for the end of the extraordinary ses- » ton, agreement having been reached @™@ all jmportant points. The big financi¢! bills were passed and imme- diate urtiment follpwed. ‘The session was strictly confined to nancial legislation. The Republican conference this morning agreed that mo other matters would be consid- ered. The one exception was the ehange in the date of primary day so that it will not conflict with the Jewish Day of Atonement. The total appropriations approzim- | ate $34,445,000.

Such a definite a: ment is needed for the protection of the man quite as much ag for the woman.
