the Senate we are failing of patriotic duty. When you return to your consult uents, to the fathers whose sons are now in the Philippine Islands, they VIII know of this trick and they will spurn you.
 'I thank God there is an American spirit, and in that spirit l rejoice It has already won for us glory that will last as long as time-glory that will never be dimmed. It has shown that the United States is willing to wage war Tor hu- manity, for Christianity, for liberty. Our soldiers are to-day fighting for humanity. Christianity and liberty, and with such marked skill and intrepidity that their conduct will ever stand as monument to them in the eyes of the world, and al- ways will command for them the ad- mration of civilized nations. That we should, in this august body, be laying pipes to carry into effect a political scheme for the advantage of some party at the November elections Is inconceiv- able to use no stronger term.
 Then came Whites reply and scathing rebuke.
 Teller. in a speech, during which he en- deavored to throw oil on the troubled waters maintained that the Senators who were opposing the annexation of Hawaii could not be accused justly of impeding the progress of the war, as had been intimated by Morgan. They had a perfect right, he thought, to a full and free expression of their views upon this as upon any other question before the Senate. However, he favored early ac- ton on the resolutions.
 Teller expressed the opinion that this country would soon be face to face with serious questions of policy, but he thought the American people could be trusted te rightly and righteously settle any questions involving the acquisition of territory. Teller asserted that if President, he would not tolerate any ad- dress from the concert of powers. He also said that he would resent any in- reference by Germany in the settlement of matters in the Philippines.
 -.llen replied to the remarks of Nor gan. He said he cared nothing about be- ing called a filibuster, and that he would maintain his convictions, regardless of the dictation of Morgan. He resented the expression that he desired to ob- struct the progress of the war, and said this was mere political rot"
 At D. m. the Senate adjourned.

 The Derby was run over a slow track and a heavy wind was blowing up the stretch. Thirty thousand people wit messed the race.
 At the start Warrenton showed a half length in front of Bannockburn, with Isabey and the others closely punched. Eva Rice, with Burns in the saddle, shot to the front and set the pace, passing the stand the first time. close up, while Martin. on Pink Coat, was last by several lengths.
 After six furlongs had been covered Littlefleld let down the favorite's head and he went to the front winning cas- fly and opening up gap of two lengths. Martin, in the meantime, had joined issues with the bunch and was overhauling the leaders one by one. Caywood was taking matters leisurely with Divers candidate, Warrenton, while Bannockburn seemed to have something left.
 It was Mirthful all the way to the nine-furlong pole, Pink Coat, Warren ton and Isabey, who had been slow to get in motion, attending him. Martin called on his mount three furlongs from home, and he drew away from the field, apparently an easy winner.

which he thought were vital to his sec tion and has filibustered We may not know why the Senator from Alabama or others absented themselves, but, under the constitution 1t was their business to be here if a quorum was necessary and they have been absent and we have permitted that absence to go undisputed. Let none of this hypoc- risy, this advertisement, this pretense, this falsehood, delude anybody. It does not delude any one in this chamber. and it never will. It will never pass untraversed so long as l stand here, whether the distinguished Senator from Alabama as he stated in an article in the North American Review, admires the Malay inhabitants of the Philip pine Islands, or waxes enthusiastic over our proposed and intended alliance with the people of Hawaii. His desire to associate us with the aborigines of Borneo, Sumatra or Java will never win my support. Let us understand that in the discussion of public questions we can be heard and we will be heard, and that no orders will be received from the Senator from Alabama with reference to our position.
