CHILD LABOR BILL LAW.
SIGNED By GOV. HUGHES.
Hours of Labor of Children and
Minors Limited.

Albany June 15.-In approving an important
child abor bill by Assembyman Prentice to-day
Governor Hughes took cognizance of the deci-
sion by the Court of.Appeals on Friday last de-
claring unconstitutional the provision of law
limiting the hours of labor of adult women. The
law declared unconstitutional restricted the
hours of employment of adult women before 6
a. m and after p. m. The Governor. in his
memorandum. says that the provisions declared
unconstitutional are clearly separable so that
the remainder of the law will not be affected
The bill limits the hours of labor of children
under sixteen years old in factories 10 eight
hours day. between s o'clock in the morning
and o'clock in the afternoon. six days in the
week and of males under eighteen years 10 six
Gays or sixty hours in any week, and to ten
houfs day; also prohibits work by miners be-
tween midnight and 4 m. restricts the hours
OF labor OF females under twenty-one years old
10 ten hours day, between O'Clock in the
morning and O'Clock in the evening, except in
order to make a short day or holiday on one Of
the six working days of the week.
IhlS bill, says the Governor. "classifes and
improves the provisions of Sections - and IS
or the labor law relating to the employment of
women and children in factories. Since the bill
passed the Legislature the Court of Appeals has
held the provisions of Section - relating to the
hours of labor of adult women 10 he unconsti-
'uuonel. These provisions are retained in the
present bill but they clearly separahle, so
that the remainder of the law will not be af-
feCted The bill makes distinct provision for
the case of female minors so that legislation as
10 these will not depend upon the validity Of a
general clause applicable to all women, whether
minors adults
The bill is of such remedial character that
] do not feel justified in Withholding my sig
nature merely because of the formal retention
Of provision of the existing law which the de-
Cision of the court has rendered imperative"
Governor Hughes also approved the bin Of As
semblyman Hooper. reorganizing the State De-
partment Of Labor. The annual salary of the
State Commissioner Of La bor is increased from
81 500 to 5000. and his two deputies from
