SESSION IF LEGISLATURE |S DRAWING ID CLOSE; HOUSE DISCUSSING APPROPRIATIONS

g vO inal appropriation for repairs, $16,- 300 restored, but that failed.
 Aid Flagstaff Normal Too
 Having done so much for the Tempe Normal, the senate easily led to do something for the Northern Normal an dthe salaries appropriation for that institution was raised from $91,- 900 to S99, ,990; $2,000 was added to the capital investment appropriation for the Northern Normal, bringing it to S7,25O.
 None of the other subdivisions were seriously disturbed. There was some shifting about of the appropriations for the office of game warden. The salaries of the warden and his office deputy were made to be taken out of the game protection fund. These amount to $1,200, to which is added ! $1 900 for other expenses. Direct ap- propriations are made for two field deputies at salary of $1,200 each, extra deputies, part time, $3,240; travel $1,40O, and operation, $4,590.1 Another item of capital investment, $5000, was added for the purpose it is understood, of installing fish hatchery.
 A subdivision was added to the bill appropriating $72,500 for the interest and redemption funds.

 1 PHOENIX, April 1.-The senate met this morning, but did nothing and adjourned until this afternoon. It was reported that the senate would | take no action until it has heard the fate of the financial code, now in the hands of the governor.
 The house devoted greater part ! of the morning to final reading of | general appropriation bill. It was indicated that the bill would be pass ed late today.

 to be holding up the financial code pending the arrival of the appropria-
 tion bill so that he could consider them jointly. He has until midnight

 comes law automatically. Some senators were of the opinion
 that it would be impossible for the
 senate to consider and pass the gen eral appropriation bill in the limited
 time the governor has to act on the
 code.
