lette was sworn in today as senator from
Wisconsin.

called to order Mr.. spooner invited Mr..
La Toilette 10 seat beside himself in

gressed far when Mr. Spooner moved that

motion prevailed and Mr. Spooner am
nounced the presence Of his colleague.
He then proffered his arm TO Mr.. La
Toilette and the two Wisconsin men
walked TO the vacant space in front Of
the vice presidents desk They were the
objects OF general observation.
The ceremony at the desk was brief.
The new senator was received by the
vice president who greeted him with a
cordial shake Of the hand. After Mr.. Ia
Toilette had signed the oath which he
had taken he was again joined by Mr.
Spooner and escorted to the seat as
signed him.
