much friction. The first business taken up
was the motion made Tuesday evening to

carried. Clark of Richardson then moved
to refer the question to the committee on
privileges and elections; carried. Action
taken Tuesday regarding the printing of

ried by a vote of "a to 10. Straub of

$500 already expended. The report also
stated thata large number of paper baskets,
cuSpidors and other articles of furniture

siderable talk on the question of theft. The
bill appropriating 500, 900 for expenses of

on the 18th and what little business pre-
sented itself flor consideration was tran
sacted speedily. Mr. Weller of Otoe asked
for the enforcement of rule 43, which de-
aies aamittance to the senate floor to all
persons not members or employees of the

by the president of tbs senate; Mf. Ora
ham of Frontier, presented the list OF
