his EFFECTIVE DEBUT YESTERDAY

HIS BFFECTIvE DEBUT YESTERDAY
Senator Malone, OF Virginia, who remained
silent so long that he was termed the s.vlrglnia
Sphinx", proved to the Senate and the country
yesterday that he can talk when he feels CALLED
upon to do so. His speech was delivered with
an earnest, fiery eloquence that rendered his
every word effective. His gestures were I'M
pressiVe and every one added pith and point to
his words. His voice was mOdulated SO that
the lowest accents with which he uttered his
Missing sarcasm were distinctly heard In every
part OF the chamber. His command of Ian
guarge was ready and prompt and he proved
himself an orator able tO cope with any who
may attack him In the Senate. 1t is true that
ne spoke under what he regarded as uncalled
1or proVocat1on and that his Indignation, no
doubt, added to the impresSiveness OF his Ian
guagSe qua S and s his manner; but the powers he dis
moments. His appearance upon the floor and
his remarks created one OF the most remark
able sensations OF the usually grave and
d1gn1f1ed Senate.
THE SURROUNDING CIRCUMSTANCES
contributed largely to the sensational. Curiosity
to hear Mr.. Malone declare his position was felt
by all present, but before he had concluded the
Senate and audience was divided. in sentiment.
Into two classes-one friendly to Malone and
0enghted at his speech, the other deDouncing
MIN and his conduct. For the time being the
rules or the body were set at defiance and
never was the House of Representative In It's
