tors who addressed the senate rose to
and surpassed their previous efforts.
The debate, beginning at the unusu-
ally early hour of ten o'clock, contin-
ued until far into the night, and yet the
throngs remained as if held under some
spell. During the day speeches were de-
livercd by Senators Cullom Qll.), Berry
(Ark.), Daniel (Na.), Tillman Is. c.,
Wolcott (Col.), Spooner wis.,, Chiffon
(TeX.), Teller (Col.) and Stewart ,Nev.).
\ sensational incident, not really
growing out of the debate upon the
lending question, occurred ut 1925 at
night. In personal squabble over the
recent trip made by Senator Money
(Miss.) to Cuba, between him and SEN
otor Wellington (Md.), Senator We'll
lngton charged Senator Money with
speaking in the senate ms the agent of
New York newspaper.
Senator Money was on his feet in an
instant with the remark that the state
ment was false.
IL make the remark as the paper gave
it," again retorted Senator Wellington,
doggedly.
Then make it on your own RESPONSE
bility,' said Senator Money, his whole
frame quivering with suppressed emo
ton. his arm outstretched defiantly to-
ward the senator from Maryland.
IL do make it on my own responsible
ity," replied Senator Wellington.

sippi senator. -,
Senator Wilson NNash.) broke the ten
sion by stepping forward into the cen
ter aisle and asking, in bland voice,
whether declaration of war would
be in order" The senators and galleries
laughed heartily at this sally, and
meantime friends of the bellicose SEN
ators surrounded them and led them
away into the cloak rooms.
A few minutes afterwards, subse-
quent to the adoption of the Jones'
agreement, Senator Money emerged
from the cloakroom, and, amid an inn
pressive silence, said: mir. President,

ocation / used language which was not
parliamentary. Nothing could be far
Their from my intention than to violate
the decorum of the senate or to break
any of its rules. | therefore desire to
apologize to the senate for the language
which should not have used in it's pres
ence.' The galleries applauded this ut
terance, and the incident closed.
At the conclusion of Senator Stew
arts speech the senate, on motion of
Senator Davis adjourned to 10:45.

There are thousands of people suffering

The HOUSE FOR WAR.
Passes Resolution by Vote of 322 to
10 Demanding Immediate In
Prevention In Cuba.

Washington, April 1.-THE house of
representatives Wednesday, after one
of the most exciting and memorable
days in its history, by vote of 322 to
10, adopted a resolution which nine
tenths of its members believe makes
war with Spain inevitable. 1t is fact
which was grimly commented upon by
members as they spoke of the future,
that every war in which the United
States has engaged began in April, and
that Wednesday was the anniversary of
the fall of Fort Sumter, which aroused
the patriotic fervor of the north and
made the four years of civil strife GER
tainty.
AT 1880 p. m. the majority of the
house committee on foreign affairs
agreed to the following resolution,
which was reported to the house
Wednesday afternoon:
Whereas, That the government of Spain
for three years past has been waging war
on the island of Cuba against revolu-
ton of the Inhabitants thereof, without
making any substantial progress toward
the suppression of said revolution, and
has conducted the warfare in a man
ner contrary to the laws of nations by
methods inhuman and uncivlizcd, causing
the death by starvation of more than
100000 innocent Ion-combatants, the VIC
Tins being for the most part helpless wom-
en- and children, infllcting intolerabie in
Jury to the commercial interests of the
United States, involving the destruction
of the lives and property of many of our
citizens, entaiiing the expenditure Of mill
lions of dollars In patrollinS our coasts and
policing the high seas in order to maintain
our neutrality. ard
Whereas, This long series of losses, in

sponsible has cu4mnated in the destruc-
ton of the United States battlcshlp Maine

Resolved, etc, That the president Is
hereby authorized and directed 10 intervene
at once to stop the war in Cuba, to the end
and with the purpose OF securing perma-
nent peace and order there ard estab-
fishing by the free action of the people
thereof a stable and independent govern
ment OF their own in the island OF Cuba; .
and the president is hereby authorized and
empowered to use the land and naval forces
of the United States to execute the purpose
of this resolution"
The capitol was again like be-
leaguered citadel. Thousands upon
thousands swarmed into the corridors
and galleries to witness the scenes and
to hear the stirring oratory. The gall
leries of the house were solid mass
of humanity, and on the floor members
in excited groups were discussing the
situation.
Only 40 minutes were given for de-
bate, and special rule was required to
get the resolutions before the house.
The minority resolutions, which de-
clared for the recognition of the exist
ing government of the insurgents, were
voted down-147 to 190-but they Sc
cured the votes of three republicans.
Some stirring and patriotic senti-
ments were voiced during the debate,
which lifted the galleries and the men,
bers to u high pitch of enthusiasm.
Mr.. Adams Pa.), acting chairman of
the foreign affairs committee, and Mr..
Dinsmore dem, Ark), the senior MEM
Der of the minority, were the only
members who had an opportunity to
speak directly to the resolutions, but
Gen. Henderson (Ia.), Mr.. Bailey (Tex)
and Mr.. McMillin (Tex.) each made
speeches under the special order.
