HOW sse violated Senatorial Pre-,

HOW ssc Violated Senatorial Prece-
d-mt Rs,d Upset senatorial Dignity.
Washington Correspondence New York Sun,
eenator higgins Of Delaware has COM
mitted an awful breach of senatorial ETH
quette, and is being gently but persist
emily rsbuked by his old colleagues.
There is an unWritten Law OF the Senate
that no member OF 1t Rhall move an exc
eutive session until he has been senator
for AT least two years. Even then he 10
not expected to make the motion himself,
but to suggest 20 one OF the elder sena-
tnrs that he desires 10 have an executive
session. Then, il the senior statesman is
willing, the motion ia made in 6ue form.
Senator Edmunds is the man who ia sup
posed to govern the matter of whether
tha Senate shall so into executive session
or not, and his right to rule il rarely
questioned, not more thsn is that of Don
Cameron to NOV to adjourn. Mr.. Hig'
gins knew nothing about this time-hon-
oIed Gustom, and being man of consid-
cradle push and energy, aud accustomed
to manage his own 6ffalts, he upset all the
traditions.
Senator Cullom had the foo, and Mr..
Higgins asked him ii he would yield to
allow HIM to make q motion. The Hi.
uoie senator, thinking that this was re-
qusst OF some routine kind, promptly
yielded the floor, and the Delaware sen,
ator startled his colleagues by = motion

mediately hemnled and hswed and made
several motions, and Vice-president
Morton, who has been thoroughly poAted

| The senator became a little nettlGd, and
flushing, repeated his request and scowled
at the senators who were attempting tt
! talk him CT his fest. They persisted,
and so did Mr.. higgins. He COULDN'T
