special order. If a bill or other subject made a special order
is not taken up, or, if taken up, is left undisposed of on the
day fixed, thereafter it loses its specialty. Special orders take
precedence in the order in which they are made. The usual
form of the motion iu the Senate is, that the. (describe the bill
or other subject) he made the special order for the ...... .......day of
............... ......... .... ............ at.. . ....o'clock.............. ..... ... M., omitting the
balance of the motion, and from day to day until the same if
disposed, of. At the arrival of the time fixed for the disposal
of a special order previously made, it takes precedence of all
other business, but a special order cannot be called up while
another has the floor. The motion to make a special order is
debatable, but does not allow reference to the main question ;
it may be amended, and can be reconsidered.

A motion to proceed to the consideration of a special order
is undebatable, and cannot be amended.

TO SUSPEND THE RULES.

(See Rule LVIII.)

Debatable, but does not allow reference to the main question,
and cannot be reconsidered, nor can it be laid on the table,
or postponed indefinitely, and no dilatory motion can be made
except one motion to adjourn while it is pending.

When more than one proposition is to be submitted under a
suspension of the rules, a separate suspension ia necessary for
each proposition ; but a committee may report a number of
bills under a single suspension for that purpose.

MOTION TO APPEAL FROM SPEAKER'S DECISION.

Debatable where the appeal is made on debatable questions;
does not allow reference to main question; cannot be amended ;
can be reconsidered, and is always in order, though another
may have the floor. If the appeal relates to the priority of
business, it shall be decided without debate. An appeal can
only be made on the day upon which the question was decided.
