Violence in Virginia Senate Sparks Disruption
Debates over liquor bill led to a near fight in the Virginia Senate as members clashed and floor leaders struggled to restore order. The incident involved members Quigley, Hare, and Bryant amid a raised disturbance in the chamber. Police and aides attempted to restore calm as accusations and threats surfaced. In separate reports, Quigley and Hare were arrested in New York on extortion charges, tied to a $100 payoff over a smuggled tea set. A separate case from Mahanoy City describes a boy death caused by an umbrella hurled from a brewery wagon, highlighting a string of tragic incidents.
