bf the Ku Klux Kian accompanied
another indecisive effort today to
force a showdown on the bill to
revoke the amnesty granted former
Governor James E. Ferguson by
the last legislature.
After an hour of debate the Sen-
ate finally agreed that the amnesty
bill should be special order of busi-
ness after all pending resolutions
proposing amendments to the con*
stitution are disposed of. This
leaves the bill in almost the same
position it occupied When the de-
hut«f began, except that It uakea it

debate were very close and the fi-
nal ♦ufc was IS to 11 for the Indefi-
nite date in preference to calling
the hill up tomorrow.

the hill, started the debate when h*
attempted to have the bill brought
