he session of the Constitutional Con

The session of the Constitutional Con-
vention yesterday was the longest con-
tinuous one ever held, lasting without in
terruption for four and a half hours.
The quadrenniaI session and election
contest, as predicted in The Times, soon
narrowed itself down to the question II
hold-over Senate. The issue was short.
sharp and decisive. Chairman Moore
could not hold his Quadrennial forces
when the bloody angle was reached, and
Mr. Flood, gathering recruits from the
ranks of the quadrennial enemy, led
victorious charge against Qua0rennial ses-
sions Then Mr. Moore turned and cap
tured enough recruits from Mr.. Floods

and dragons, leaving twenty Senators

and wounded soldiers lay piled up On top
of each other. Both commanders were
weak from loss of blood; both had won
great victories and suffered defeat to-
gether
But the dearest thing to each ones
heart was gone. The raw troops had
learned discipline and service so well
they started out on a campaign of their
own and walked away like ingrates, with
twenty bloody senatorial scalps and one
quadrennial election dangling to their
belts, regardless Of the consequences to
their pristine noble and resourceful lead
ers
The action of the Committee of the
Whole was thus reversed, and in future
there will be biennial sessions of the Sen
ate and House, limited to sixty days,
and all Senators will be elected just as
members Of the House are, for q term OF
two years.
The convention then proceeded to adopt
the twenty-six remaining sections of tfa
legislative article with no amendments OF
Importance and very little debate, and
at 2:20 o'clock the whole had been COM
pleted and referred to the Committee On
Final Revision. The days proceedings
were full of interest and the report Will
