Crowds Left the Houes to
Avoid Voting on Bill.
Eight Hour Bill is up in the Air in
the Senate. Three Reports
Returned by Labor
Committee.

Denver. March 2I-Organized
labor received anotehr severe blow to-
day by the senate labor committee
which has been working on the new
eight hour law.
The committee went out early this
week with the understanding that it
would report satisfactory bill on
Saturday. The result of the delibera.
tions of the committee was made
known at noon when it was announc-
ed that three reports would be filed
One report recommended the passage of
the Moore bill, another the passage of
the amended Stevens bill, and a third
recommends the substitution of the
Moore bill for the Setvens bill.
The result of the three reports is
that the eight hour law is just as
much confused as before and the
chances for the passage of the meas
ure are very slim. The house appro.
priations bills will be up Monday.
In the house several bills were up on
third reading. The bill of Mr.. Breck
enridge prohibiting the divergence of
waters in the Arkansas valley was
passed.
