Appropriate resolutions were adopted by
the committee regarding tho death of Mr.
Campbell, and some deatails of the ap.

ranged. The convention will be held in

the United States senate from March 4,
1897, when Senator Blackburn's term ex-
pires, until at least january, 1898. when
thc next legislature can meet and fill the
vacancy. There was no lack Of apprehen-
sion of renewed danger Of an outbreak.
Mayor Julian with q force Of police
cleared the rotunda Of mere curiosity seek
ers, but in the cloak rooms and elsewhere
were enough men to have done much
harm il the occasion had arisen. Perhaps
the apprehension Of difficulty tended to
produce unusual self-restraint and SO
the scene ended without other turmoil
than that Of debate. The newly-installed
Republican of the house did not qualify
before the joint assembly met and SO was
not a factor.
The Republicans adopted the tactics Of
breaking the quorum and this brough.
from Lieutenant Governor NorthingtOn
the ruling that seventy members con-
stitute quorum necessary to elect a SEN
ator. So long as this ruling stands no
election can be had except by breaking
over party lines.
