 The senate yesterday morning re- jected the bill relating to peach yell lows, remitting fines imposed upon cer- tain persons convicted of violating the peach yellows law. Senator Herman led the opposition to the bill. He contended that the state had been at large expense in secur- ing the convictions of these persons and that it was not just to make the state repay it. The senate concurred with the house in rejecting the constitutional amend ment providing for redistricting the state in senatorial districts. House bill regulating the extension of fire districts was passed in concur renee.
 The resolution offered early in the session that the finance report on the
 
 ported back with the statement that the committee had no time to look into the matter owing to the vast amount of regular business. The house on Tuesday rejected the high license bill offered by MT.

 After running debate by Senators I Herman, Woodruff, VinaI and others, Senator Marigold moved to make the date of final adjournment Saturday, June 12, and Senator Brown to make it Wednesday, June 16. Senator Lewis favored Thursday, June F. and finally the senate voted for final adjournment on Tuesday, June 15.
 Senator Goodrich called up the New Britain water supply bill, but Senator Gay objected, and also Senator Lee, who objected to taking up the bill out of its regular order. The bill was ta- l bled again.
 At 12:40 a recess was taken untN 2 p. m.
 The senate reconvened at o'clock. A motion was made by Senator Louns- bury to reconsider the vote by which the senate decided to adjourn sine die on Tuesday, June 15. The motion caused repetition of the motions and the discussions which had transpired immediately before the passage of the resolution in the forenoon.
 Thirty minutes were consumed i'm making motions and voting. Senator Woodruff insisted that he could not be present on Saturday of this week. It was stated that Lieutenant Governor Dewell could not be present on Thurs day next, and it was suggested that it would be discourteous to adjourn in the absence of the presiding officer. This did not seem to affect the desire to adhere to the vote of the morning. Monday was suggested as the day as way out of the difficulty.
 Senator Lounsbury's motion to recon- slider finally prevailed. It was then voted to concur with the house in the vote to adjourn on Saturday.
 The New Britain Water company bill was then taken up, and after a lengthy discussion the bill was passed.
 The senate will be in session to-day until the work of the session is conn., pleted.
