Members Making Capital Of Their Re-
speetive Attitudes.
WASHINGTON, april 20.-Mr. Cockerell
injected some life into Tuesdays ses-
sion Of the senate by throwing down the
gauntlet to Mr.. Hale for utterances Of
the latter during the Cuban debate.
Mr.. Hale expressed the hope that all
Republicans would be found In solid
phalanx In support Of the president and
their party. Il may be pardoncd, too.
for expressing tho hope" said he. taunt-
ingiy. that all Democrats and all MEM
bcrs Of other parties shall be found sup
porting not the president alone. but the
country In all patriotic matters"
II, too. shall welcome the day when
men Of all parties may join with the
president In support Of patriotic poll
cies." declared Mr.. Cockerell. but II
the president of the United States ex-
poets me to be q tail of his kite and to
swing along to his coat-tails. he will
md himself greatly mistaken"
We cannot imagine the senator from
Missouri swinging from the coat-tails Of
anybody" said Mr.. Hale.
The Providence news. (Providence [R.I.]) 1891-1906, 1898-04-20

sharply attacked the administration and
congress for their action on the Cuban
question. He adverted TO the passing Of
the resolution early In the morning.
intimating that II would. enable those 90
inclined 70 take advantage OF the Cuban
patriots.
Mr.. Hale interrupted him to inquire
why II was that the Democrats of the
senate, particularly as a body, voted
against the action for which they had
been clamorinx for months. II can
understand" ne said. "the senator from
Missouri may be a tribe sensitive over
night"
not at ALL" declared Mr.. Cockersll.
Il never was more glad Of any vote that
I ever cast than of tina. cast in the
early hours this morning. The votes we
cast were q manifestation OF devotion
10 the principle long upheld by the Gu
ban patriots"
Mr.. Hale called attention to the fore
cast he had made last Saturday night,
which was in effect that the Democrats
were opposed to any action. He did not
expect his forecast to be 90 soon sub
stantiated. 4
Mr.. Cockersll replied that when the
question finally came before the senate
II was on the particular matter As IN
whether the recognition of independence
should be incorporated In the resolutions.
That amendment. Mr.. Cockerell con-
tended. was the only point in issue on
the final vote.
Mr.. Hale was about to again interrupt
when he was stopped by the suggestion
OF Mr.. Spooner (Wis.) that the Missouri
kenator be permitted to proceed with
his political speech" Il am perfectly
willing" responded Mr.. Hale. that the
senator from Missouri should continue
hts excufpatory speech"
1 don't care continental whether you
call it a political speech" shouted Mr..
Cockerell. He maintained that he was
accurately stating the position Of him.
self and his colleagues.
But the senator will admit" persisted
Mr.. Hale. that he and % others OF his
colleagues voted against the Cuban res
olutions."
''Oh, the senator from Maine" respond :
ed Mr.. CockereII, disdainfully. lis en-
ploying pettifogging tactics that are not
worthy OF a lawyse in Justices court"
Mr.. Cannon inquired Of Mr.. Hale
whether a vote against a conference re-
port was vote against the measure in
volved.
In reply Mr.. Hale said In substance
that such a vote had all the effect Of q
vote against the measure. because by
the adoption Of the report the measure,
with the subsequently attached sigma
ture OF the president. became the law Of
the land.
Spooner, this whole business was a
Democratic party play. and they cannot
put men on this side of the chamber in
hole by any exhibition OF a 'holier than
thou policy on that point"

sAGAsTA coUNsELs UNITY.

Madrid. April 20.-The supporters Of
the government In both houses OF parlia-
ment met Tuesday and were addressed
N follows by the premier: THE times
are so grave and the circumstances are
90 exceptional that acts and not words
are necessary to face the present diff
hculty. Attempts are being made to
sully the glorious history Of Spain by
an infamous calumny. The different
Spanish governments have done their
utmost to avert war to which we are be-
ing provoked. We have now reached
the limits Of concessions compatible
with honor and territorial integrity. We
consented to the last concession at the
instance OF the pope and the powers.
We yielded In fact. but now attempts
are being made upon our honor and
menaces directed against our territory.
That 10 . thing to which Spaniards will
never consent. This Is not the moment
to trace q parliamentary program, but
the moment to unite ourselves, as our
fathers have done. In the face Of an
odious attempt against the integrity OF
our territory. The insult offered US to-
day 10 the most infamous that has ever
been offered"
Premier sagasta counselled the rapid
constitution Of the chambers in order to
accord to the government the means to
defend the country's interests. Spain.
he added. will not allow parcel Of her
territory to be taken from her with i'm
punity; nor will she be a party to any
trafYicking for her possessions" Pro-
longed applause greeted the speech.

sent message to Emelio CASTELAR,. ap-
pealing to his patriotism to take part
In the parliamentary campaign. The
communication points out that during
the present situation 1t is the duty Of the

the same time to stand ready to make
the sacrifices demanded by patriotism,

Early Tuesday morning the large metal

SHORTAGE OF RATIONS
Major Gallagher Testifies Be-

If the Shortage Had Lasted Seven Days
Instead of Two In the Santiago Cam.
paign-A Woman's Charges Regarding
Affairs at Caup Wikon.

! WASHINGTON, Oct. 11.-Captain Gull
yer of the Grigsbys rough riders, DIR.
Hysell, chief surgeon of the Second di-
vision, located at Camp Thomas, and
Major Gallagher, who was in charge of
various commissary depots in the San
tiago campaign, proved three interest
ing witnesses before the war investi-
eating board. DR.. Hysell's testimony
dealt with the sanitary and hospital
conditions at Camp Thomas. lie said
that there was less typhoid fever in the
troops of the Second division than in
the other divisions. and stated that upon
his advice the division had secured its
water from outside springs instead OF
from the Chickamauga river, as he con-
sidered the river water liable to be i'm
pure.
Major Gallagher detailed the process
of supplying rations to the troops in the
field. He said that at one time there
was deficiency in coffee and sugar for
two days, and expressed the opinion
that this shortage would have proven
serious if it had continued for any
length of time. He said the supply of
lighters was not sufficient to permit the
accumulation Of any considerable guam
tity of food at any one time.
Suppose" asked General McCook,
this shortage of rations had lasted for
seven days instead of two, what would
be the result?''
back, replied Major Gallagher. "Men
cannot fight on short rations."
Major Gallagher said that of the five

inefficient and Indifferent to their du-
ties. They were Captain Lord of New
York and Captain Ryan of Kansas.
Mr.. Gallagher said the commissary
supply at Montauk was abundant and
good while he was at that point.
General Beaver received letter from
Mrs. Hugo LANCE of Brooklyn, who par
ticipated in the relief work at Montauk
Point, relating to her interview with
President Mckinley when he visited
Camp Wikoff. She requested him to
ask why the men were without care in
the detention and in some of the regi-
mental hospitals. The letter continues
Il will also ask you to go back of the
conditions at the time General Wheeler
arrived and investigate why no prepa-
ration was made to receive and care for
our sick and suffering soldiers. [ never
saw more devoted or self-sacrificing
work under the most trying conditions
or with greater patience and persever-
ance than was always exhibited by the
executive officers of Camp Wikoff,
particularly Major Heizeman, Major
Browne and Major Thomasson. The
sanitary conditions at the general hos
pstal was appalling until the general
police work was taken up by Lieuten-
ant Durfee of the Second engineers"
