(From a Staff Correspondent.)
LINCOLN. Feb. 22.-(Special.) Whether
the senate took a three-day or a four-day
adjournment last Friday afternoon when
It decided to adjourn to Tuesday after
noon of this week Is a question still
troubling some of the legislators.
Senator Beat at the time contended that

"Our efforts for peace," he continued,
"have been marie as complete as possi

dered his good offices by way of media

counting according to the legal way Tues
day would be the fourth day. The consti
tution forbid an adjournment for more
than three days. Those who hold to Boat's
view are being haunted with the fear
that the senate may have invalidated all
the pending legislation by Its action.
The great majority of lawyers, however,
are Inclined to, laugh these fearful ones
to scorn. Such adjournments have been
frequent in this session and In previous
sessions.
