In that city.

The action on the armory bills followed on all day conference between the governor and legislative leaders, including Senators Baines and Malby, Speak er Nixon and Assemblyman Rogers, over tbe appropriation and supply, bills. The conference resulted In agreements as a result of which about $2,000,000 will be cut from the bills as passed by the legislature. Miser* Head, Ml»e Flooded. SHAMOK1N.
