was engaged In the first considerable de-
bate of the present session. On tho race
OF 1t, the question invoived--the exclu-
sion Of the public from the floor OF the
Senate-was not OF great Importance, but
the momcntpus considerations senators
managed to see in the proposition were
astonishing III number.
The question came up on the report OF
the Committee ON Rules, recommending
n change In the Senate rules embodying
The provisions OF the Phlegar resolution.
offered Wednesday. Discussion began at
once. Explanation WAS made that the en-
tire purpose OF tho resolution was TO
facilitate the business OF the Senate by
preventing the oyercrowding, so objec-
tionable under the old system, and to pro-
iect the members from the Vaccinations
OF lobbyists. But several could not see
1t this way, and several even discovered
in the resolution an attack upon the
inallenabIc rights OF the people OF Yir-
Glnia. For the Senate to commemorate
the opening OF the new Capitol. that the
people had built. by excluding them from
the chamber was. In the opinion OF sew
eral. most unwarrantable imposition.
Certain senator's objected to being forced
10 sit In doorsteps or straddle the Capitol
fence while they discussed matters OF
State with constituents. They wished to
bring these constituents onto the floor.
whore they could receive them mt their
case. The ungallantry OF excluding la
dies-tho delicate question OF what should
be done with swecthearts, wives and
daughters-received much attention. and
there was some good-natured banterins
of tho members over this point.
Various amendments to the new rule
proposed were offered, discussed and re-
Jected. Two were adopted. The debate
went rierrily on, some OF the heavyweight
lawyers in the body participating. Attcn-
ton was called to the consideration that
The Senate owed to the people OF Virginia

without interruption from outsiders. 1t
was declared that the Legislature at best
would have more than 1t could properly
Rttcnd to in 4 slxtyIday session. and that
the crowdins OF outsiders onto the floor
might prevent Il serious impeachment, and
further complicatc matters. The question
of whether or not the Senate floor was
public property was debated at length
The report of the Committee on Rules
was then adopted by vote OF thirty
three to one. With tile addition OF an
amendment permitting member to bring
a member of his family upon the floor.
the new rule, which, for the benefit of
the public, is given here in full. Is as
follows:

SENATE SESSION
After the Introduction of Bills
Body Adiourns.

Few seats were vacant when the Senate
was called to order at noon by President
Wickhnm. The attendance of visitors,
however. was smaller than usual. practi-
cally no outsiders being on the floor OF
tho chamber. Five people were In tho
gallery at the opening. Prayer WAS OF
fercd by tho Rev. John Moncure, d. d.,
of the Episcopal Church. and the Senate
got down TO business at once.
Various committee announcements were
made, and the influx OF bills and resolu-
lions began promptly thereafter. A long
string OF measures, more or less i'm
portant, had found their way to the
clerks desk. when something OF IL stir
was caused by the presentation by Mr..
Lynn, OF Loudoun. for immediate consid-
GRAFTON or q resolution directing the Com
mittcc for Courts of Justice to report
to the Senate within ten days bill
having for It's object the placing of all
criminal expenses on the respective coin-
ties, towns and cities Of the Common
wealth wherein the crime Is committed.
Considerable discussion sprang up from.
different points OF the chamber. Sena-
TORS were unwilling, without moro careful
deliberation, to commit the body TO the
important proposition involved In the
resolution or to bind the Courts COM
mittee in any way. a motion to commit
was made by Mr.. Walker. and was later
withdrawn to allow Mr.. Thomas. OF
Lynchburg. to propose an amendment In
structng the committee merely to In
vestigate AZ to the cxpcdiency of such
a measure and to make a report.
After some consultation Mr.. Lynn ac-
ccptcd this amendment, and, as changed.
