 The President-The Chair under stands the proposition to substitute Is simply a form of an amendment, and while there is an amendment pending to the section, and an amendment to that amendment, 1t Is not in order to offer further amendments, although the gentleman can offer his amendment at a later stage, after the Convention has disposed of the pending amendments. The chair would rule, therefore. that the .lendment offered by the gentle man from Pike, is not in order at this time. The question is on the amend ment to the amendment offered py the Kentlemap from Hale.
