overlooked the fact that the senate
was in legislative session, and was
proceeding to discuss the document
when Allison moved an executive ses-

lom was very careful to see that the
treaty was not discussed, except in

of embarrassment as he promptly &C
quiesced in the motion to close the

after convening. The other senators en-
