Hartford, Conn., June 22.—The sen- ate this afterncon refused to pass the Banks amendment to the minority re- port on a public utilitizs measure, and in so doing sent back to the house the whole matter. Last week the house passed the Banks amendment to the minority bill, then passed the bill as amended and sent it to the senate, bearing with it the promise of House Leader Banks that if the senate should reject what the house had passed he would work for the passage of the minority report, or Judson bill, as it is termed in the way of distinction. Vote Was 21 to 13. The vote taken after three hours of debate was 13 for acceptance of the Banks amendment, 21 against, and one absent. The senate previously had passed the minority bill by a vote cf 20 to 9, with 6 pafrs. Park Swings Over. This afternoon Senator Park swurg over to the Banks bill after declaring that he thought it was a better ome fo- the corporations than the minority re- port, and Senator Archibald MeNeil, Jr., who voted for the minority report, absented himself during the rollcall af- ter expressing his opinion in a speecn that the whole situation had narrowed down to a fight between two republi- can leaders.

Personalities Freely Exchanged The debate, which began at high noon and lasted until mearly 4.30, was | for the most part more acrimonious | than when the minority and majoriiy | reports were under discussion. Per- | sonalities were freely exchanged, and Dbetween Senators Judson and Spellacy it was of the give and take order, with occasional touches of repartee whici kept the audience and ihe senators | constantly on the alert, mentally and narvously, judging by the signs of un- rest. Banks Supporters Played for Delay. The supporters of the Banks amend- ment first tried to secure delay by mo- ions to table and then to postpone an- til next week. but other senators de- nounced these methods as of a dilatory Picrce, Spella- nature, and, having the advantaze, Senator Judson pressed the measure to a vote. Judson Impugns Spellacy’s Motive: Onca, afier a speech by Senmator Spellacy, in which he had attacked Senator Judson's zood faith and claim- ed that the agitation for a bill was due to that senator's ambition for future political preferment, Senator Judson rose and said he publicly impugned the motives of Senator Spellacy. Ha said that ever since the public utilities measure had been under discussion that senator had done little else than make motions to bring about dzlay. Spellacy Moved for Adjournment. Senator Spellacy had moved for ad- journment until Tuesday, when the minority bill could be secured from the house and brought in and amended to conform with the Banks bill, and in this way a bill passed upon which all could agrse.

He was willing to heip Senator Judson pass such a bill if changsl. “Give us time,” said Senator Spelacy. “Don’t say you are afraid that some of your number are likely to be imfu- enced.
