Albany Feb 1O-Action in the Legislature upon the
Worlds Fair bill is delayed at least uhtu Wednesday
the Conference Committees of the senate and the AS
yembly upon the bill having adjourned until that day.

Jon Vedder and Cantor on the part of the senate
md Assemblymen Fish, Whippe, J. Irving Burns
R. p. Bush and Hit, the part Of the Assembly
assembled at the Capitol at OclOcl-iS afternoon.
it was supposed that some decisive action would be
taken the bill. Senator Robertson had copy OF
the bill upon which to write amendments, and there
was a general belief that progress would be made \

good humOr.
IL have been examining the list of Worlds Fair
Commissioners named in the BILL said he. :" In the lgt
of what Governor Hill said in his message about
them and the men the senate named. You re
member the Governor said that the new men hau
not subscribed 10 the support of the Fair Ihat j.
a mistake; most of the new men have subscribed
But what is most remarkable is that a cuIsory eN-
animation of the list of present Commissioners shows
that fifteen of them have not subscribed have ais0
learned that there 104 Commissioners named III
the bill. and not IO3. and that this northumberland
fourth man is David Il. Hill. and that he has not
subscribed a cent"
"Weno said senator SaxtOn, Il think the Gov
errors message upon the Worlds Fair submitted to
us last Friday was most extraordinary invasion OF
the Legislatures rights Undoubtedly the writers OF
the Constitution thought that the Governor would
receive good deal of information, being in Albany
the year round, that would not come to the Legs
lature and thus 1t authorized him to communicate
this information to the legislature But the founders
of this state surely could not have imagined GOV
ernor like Mr. Hill, who would not only tell what bill
lie would not sign and what bill he would sign. but
even 60 into details about the latter. No such die
tation to the Legislature could be imagined
At this moment the members Of the Conference
Committees emerged from Clerk KenyOn's room. 10
was learned from them that they had adjourned
until Wednesday morning, in Difference to the fol
lowing telegram TO Hamilton Fish, IT,:

Senator vedder said that he thought the Conference
Committee might well meet on Tuesday night Tie
Democrats objected this, AsSemhlyman Hit decar-
ing that he had a personal engagement The RepuO-
ncans therefore agreed TO the adjournment ana then
laughingy told the Democrats that Governor Hi
had said there was need Of urgent haste III acting
upon tho Worlds Fair bill.
Assembyman Fish and the other Republicans who
are opposing the Senate bill say they Will be guided
in their future action the bill by what is done
in New-York TO morrow at the meeting Of the Worlds
Fair Committee.
Governor HIPS Worlds Fair message failed 10 ma
terialze in the Senate tonight. An interested and
eXpectant crowd of taxpayers and their wives were on
hand betimes to witness the terrific onslaught which
it was darby limited would be made it 10y certain
Republican Senators. But whether the Governor had
heard of this, ard for Of his decided 10
postpone the onslaught 10 another day whether the
Governors private secretary had merely gone off 10
hop with the precious document in h, cOaail pocket,
the Senators compelled 10 adjourn without Official
notification Of its existence, although Mt. Fd'sett
several times hntcd Jhat they were ready 70 discuss
its merits
The interesting discovery that the origina, moor
poratOrs number 1O4, and include the Governor him
self appears have been lost sight Of ~ recent dis
cussions. Iut his is probably because through acct
dent otherwise, his dropped from tho
copies Of the bill which have reached Albany, although
on those sent 10 Washington IL duly appeared
