ALBANY, April 3.-The Conference Commit
tees upon an Apportionmcnt bill reached m
agreement this afternoon. and the bill will be
reported tomorrow II is said that an effort
will bo made TO rush II through Immediately.
Senator Jacobs Of the Senate Committee was
called away to-day to attend tho funeral Of
friend in Brooklyn and Senator Hogan acted In
his place on the Committee. This will account
for the arrangement OF tho Senate districts in
Kings County which. It is believed will almost
certainly insure the return of two Republican
Senators from that county. Ham Harris carried
his point In cheating New York out OF three As
semblymen hy giving her only twenty four.
which is a gain Of three upon her present rep
resentation. Kings County gets twelve NOM
bcrs. also a gain OF three: and Monroe County
is given four. n gain Of ono. Tho counties
which lose one member each are Columbia. Del
aware Madison. Oneida. Ontario. OsweGo and
Wayne.
In arranging the Senate districts tho boun-
daries Of tho Hepburn bill for New York and
BROOKLYN were agreed to. but the gcrrymander-
ing in the county districts was given up to
Harris. The committees were unexpectedly
unanimous In their work. and in the main the
| bill reported was agreed to unanimously by both
! Republicans and Democrats. This ought TO-
] ana II u believed VIII secure itS nnSSngp. Inc
