ior Nuchler prevented consideration to-
day OF tho senate substitute OF the
cannon prohibition bill and sent that
measure TO the foot of the calender to-
await its regular order unless per-
chance. its opponents assume a dider-
emit attitude than heretofore shown
kachlers triumph came at time
when he had practically admitted de-
e-ot and apparently had abandoned all
hope OF carrying his point The pro-
POSITION 70 make the measure a special
order for today had carried by q vote
Of 10 to 6. first viva voCe, and again
ny roll CALI because the noes had
.ouuded 20 loud that the chair was un-
Iaaided. Kuchler seemed much nettled,
and in injured tones said the members
expecting to so 20 Logan this afternoon
would have 10 defer the visit. at least
H. would give notice then and there
that he would not 90. Finally it vas
arranged that the SENATE should adj
Jlurn promptly a O'Clock today SO

The next order Of business had been
called for, when Mr.. Kuchler again

The absence of number of senators
during the morning session was dou1tr
Jess the reason Senator Badger did not

motion, evidently much 10 the surprise
of the other side. He pointed out the
Importance of the bin, the near app
pIoaCh of the close of the session and
tho expediency OF early action, that
the measure might 90 10 the house.
kuchler was on his feet iu an iu-
slant, protesting against such haste
and was reminded by Badger that the
bin had been I'm MT. Kuchler's own
hands for two weeks. and copies had
been in the files of the members for
like period.

ton. as did also John Y smith. Tho

that prohibition measures be enacted
at this time" This brought forth the
remark IIoII SENATOR mlNeE lnul ne

was ready to admit that the people
want prohibition

The strongest sentiments aginst early
consideration came from Senator Hui

Senator Stoohey took the same view
as did Senator kuchler and Hulaniski,
