After passing a few local measures,
and hearing large number of commit
tee reports, motion was made to re-
consider the vote by which the anti
Pinkerton bill was lost. Senator Don
nelly made strong speech, and was op-
posed by John Day Smith and Senator
Davis, the latter creating mild sensa-
tion by moving that Representative
StOckwell be excluded from the floor.
He narrated the fact that the somewhat
fresh Hennepln statesman had used
language towards him which was far
from parliamentary. The previous
question being called for, the Nicollet
statesman Withdrew his motion, and by
vote of 26 ayes to 20 nays the vote OH
the anti-Pinkorton bill was reconsid-
cred.
Senator McHale made strong speech
in favor of the bill, and it was finally
passed, Senators John Day Smith,
Canestorp and KieSter changing sides.
This practically finished the work of
the afternoon, the senate at $3.50 taking
recess until o'clock.
