  The PRESIDING OFFICER. The Senate will please come to order. The 
majority leader.
  Mr. LOTT. Mr. President--I almost called you Mr. Chief Justice; I 
have to get used to this, going back to ``Mr. President''--before 
Senator Feinstein is recognized, I must take just a moment further to 
recognize a few individuals, and I know Senator Daschle would like to 
do that. In addition to the Chief Justice and his assistants who were 
here throughout----
  Mrs. HUTCHISON. Mr. President, I believe the White House attorneys 
should have the same privilege of being escorted out.
  Mr. LOTT. I think we will ask Senator Nickles to handle that. 
(Laughter.)

the Chamber.
