night. Senator Page and Mr.. Dowling will have
charge of the measure again IN the two houses
The new bill will be drawn to meet the objections

keeping all the essential points OF that measure.
and no doubt is felt to its passage.
Senator Page has had several conferences with
the Governor since the veto of the recording tax
bill. The supporters of that plan feel that the
Governor is not opposed to the substitution Of the
recording tax for the annual mortgage tax, and
that his objections to the Page-Dowling bill were
solely as his memorandum declared. because OF
ambiguity in the phrasing Of one or two of its
sections This will be corrected. and the provt-

INSURANCE END.
Legislation Almost Certain To Be
Finished This Week. .-
[By Telegraph to The Tribune.

Albany, April with the fight in the Senate
over the insurance measures settled by the Cover
nors prompt action, these important bills Will be
finished by the Legislature this week without any
difficulty. Only two are left The general BILL
once passed by the Assembly, is again before
that body, slightly amended, because Of Senator
Whites passage of his amendment shutting off the
publication of polcyhoders lists. The other
measure is that relative false statements in the
trial of perjury cases. which the Assembly has
not yet taken up. Some argument may arise over
this, but since the Republican Senators made the
'big bill" party measure their example will
prevent any serious objections in the Assembly.
Few bills of general importance are before either
house now. The Senate has on its calendar the
Corrupt Practices bill, which the Assembly passed
without accepting the wainwright amendments de-
signed to compel strict accounting for every cent

Undoubtedly this measure will be passed by the
Senate in this form

it is expected. While there may be some prelimi-
nary difficulty the committee in deciding the
merits Of various tentative reapportionments, after
the bill is presented little difficulty is antic
pated. The Governor has let his views be pretty
well known-tfat the party welfare should be held
paramount, above questions of factional politics

upstate districts will be divided pretty fairly ac-
cording to population, from what can be gathered
Supporters of Mr.. Parsons say that in New York
County districts the Parsons plan will be found
TO have been accepted rather than the Odell
division.
Allotment still remains a mooted point. The
legislative leaders have been straining every
just how it can be done. May is accepted the
most probable date
