Newton's gravity did as good a job as could be measured against at the time.
The anomaly pointed up by the precession of the axis of Mercury's orbit hadn't
been noticed yet, and it was a *huge* advance on what went before.

Remember also that if you simplify Einstein's theory (presumably by setting
speed of light to infinity), then AIUI Einstein's theory simplifies down to
exactly Newton. So there's no real conflict.
