road rate bill reached the controver-
sial stage in the senate yesterday.

order of business shortly before 2
O'Clock and held the floor until the
doors were closed for a brief executive
session, a few minutes after 5 o'clock.

provoked by some of his u~tterances.
Among the senators who were aroused
by him were Messrs. Foraker, Lodge
and Dolliver.
The argument Of Mr.. Rayner was dl-
rected in favor of the general PROPOSE

amended as to dispense with the sus-
pension provision. He also adVo-
Gated other amendments.

on the legislative bill developed dis
cussion of the retirement Of aged
clerks, i~nterspersed with a speech on
statehood by Mr.. Babcock OF Wiscon-
sin, one on the restriction OF immigra-
ton by Mr.. Gardner of Massachusetts,
