Speaking of the Vice Presidential
succession, Ex-senator LYMAN Trum-
bull (Democrat) said tonight: "In the
case of the death of the Vice President,
the Senate elects a President, who is
not Vice President, but simply Pres
ident of the Senate. He still remains a
Senator and has a vote as any other
Senator. The Vice President has no
vote except when the Senate is evenly
divided. Then he can give a casting
vote. In case of the death of the
President Vice President succeeds to
the Presidency and fills out the term.
A President of the senate, in case of
the Presidents death, would only act
as President until new election could
be held. The Presiden. of the Senate,
by courtesy. is often spoken of as
Vice President, but he is not Vice
President, either in law CT fact.
