ON ADJOURNMENT.
Calendar Clogged, But
Solons Fix End OF
Session

JACKSON, Miss, April 5.-iSpe-
cial. )-Although still in a deadlock on
ways and means of raising sufficient
revenue to meet appropriations, both
houses of the legislature today adopted
without debate resolution providing
the sine die adjournment next Satur-
day, April II, at the noon hour.
The date was adopted despite the fact
shat the senate calendar carried appro-
priations bills sufficient to keep the
body working day and night for an en-
tire week, and the constitution pro-
hibits the passage of bills of this char
acter within five days of adjournment.
The house. ways and means commit
tee, at lengthy session last night,
cleared its calendar of all pending meas
ures, the most notable of which was a
bill by Chirman George to put more
teeth in the assessment law requiring
ttemized property lists under oath ac-
companied by statements showing fire
insurance carried thereon. A similar
bill passed the senate several days ago.
Owing to the small working quorum
In the two bodies today, floor leaders
were unwilling to risk important meas
ures on final passage, and the day was
devoted to clearing up odds and ends
