DAY. The bills passed were principally
public building measures, and at times

the senate were remarkable. senators,
usually staid and dignihed. stickleis for
order and decorum in the senate clam
ored for consideration Of bills providing
for the erection Of government buildings
in which they were interested. Late in
the afternoon large batch Of tlRse meas
ures passed by the house was received
by the senate. Instantly confusion
reigned. senators crowded about the
clerks desk and began 10 sort over the
bills from the house, picking them out
as they found their own rs If they were
choosing valentines from bargain coun,
ter. In the area in front Of the pre
dent Of the senate half dozen senat4s
were waving bills and endeayorinH ITO
recognition from the chair
The unusual proceedings called sht %
protest from Senator Platt Of Connect
icut who demanded that senators take
their seats and that order be- restored.
At times, throughout the sessions OF the
day and night. these scenes were re-.
peated "a more building bills were
reported 10 the house. Bills carrying an
aggregate Of eight or ten millions OF
dollars were passed and many more that
had not been passed by both houses Of
congress were placed as amendments OF

opposition sought in vain to consum
