Atlanta. Ga. Sept 5.-The predic- tions that the extra session of the Leg islature called to end the convict lease system, would end its labor and ad- journ tonight. came to naught.
 Three separate conference commit tees have failed to agree. Both houses have adjourned until Monday and the end of the session Is apparently no nearer than 1t has been any day in the past ten days This afternoon an agreement was in sight but Senator Boyd later receded. The Senate today passed the bill of Mir. Wise imposing a tax of $200 annually upon retail dealers in near beer and a tax of $500 annually upon manufacturers of that beverage The Governor signed this measure together with the juvenile court bill and the resolution of Mir Alexander providing for an investiga- ton into the feasibility of employing States convicts in extending the West ern and Atlantic Railroad to the sea.
 There was a peculiar typographical error in the Wise bill as passed. The author meant to provide that manu- lecturers should be required to place their name on tle label of each bot tie. Tn expressing the bill. the final "r' in manufacturer was omitted. The members are wondering what effect this will have in case of violations.
