Senators Criticise the Delay in Sending
Troops to Manila.

Washington, May 1S.-When the Sen
ate, on motion of Senator Hawley, went
into secret session today on the quar-
termasters' bill, Mr.. Hawley read let
ter from Gen. Flagler, chief of the
bureau of ordnance, requesting that
authority be given for the purchase OF
ordnance without walking to advertise,
saying that such delay might at times
be of very serious consequence. The
letter was not notable in any respect
except that 1t was an official acknowl-
edgement Of the fact that there are still
many articles to be secured for the
equipment of the army, and that expe-
dition Is considered necessary in secur-
ing them. The reading OF the letter led
to II brief discussion Of the status OF
military operations, and some impa-
thence was expressed regarding the de-
lay in getting the military expedition
to the Philippines started.
Senator Lodge made a brief speech
on this point, expressing the hope that
II the passage Of the Bill would eXpe-
dite In any wise the movement of this
force. 1t would be put through without
any further delay whatever. He re-
ferred to the battle of Manila as the
most notable naval triumph of the
world because of its remarkable one
sidedness, and expressed surprise anC
disappointment that eighteen days
should have been allowed to elapse be.
