THE PRESIDENT AND TIE SENATE.
Failure to Furnish DocumcntsArouses
Some Of tho senators.

some OF inc senators.
washington. Jan. 27.--Yesterday's
executive session of the senate waa
consumed in discussion of the failure
Of the president SO far to send the sem
ate the documents in his possession
and on file In the state department
bearing upon the Paris conference.
Senator German raised the point as
soon as the doors were closed, and ad-
dressed the senate at some length on
the failure of the president to respond
to the senate's request for information.
The attack Of the Maryland senator
was followed by similar speeches by
Senators Vest and Hoar and they
We're replied to by Senators Spooner
and Platt.
The five senators engaged In a rum
ming debate, the opponents of the
treaty c0ntending that the senate
is entitled, as part Of the treaty
making power, to all of the facts
bearing upon the case, and the sup
porters Of the document holding that
the president could withhold any pa
pers which he did not consider in the
interest of the general welfare to give
out. Senator Spooner cited the pre-
cedents to show that the president
could withhold Information Of this
character at his pleasure when he
deemed 1t unwise to communicate facts
bearing upon international complica-
tions when to do so might prejudice the
country's best interests. The point
was also made that the president
might feel more free to communicate
with the senate If he could be sure
of privacy in doing so.
Senator Hoar said that no one could
excel him in admiration for the per-
sonal qualities Of the president or in
confidence in his patriotism. AT the
same time he contended for his orig
inal proposition that the senate was
entitled to the presidents full con-
f'derce.

A MONTANA SENSATION.
The Senate Gusts NJ Member who MAIDS
Bribery Charges.

Bribery Charges.
Helena, Mont, Jan. 27.-Sensations
came thick and fast yesterday in the
Montana legislature. Before the men,
hers met in joint session to vote for
United States senator the grand jury
reported that it had no evidence on
: which to return any indictments For
two weeks the grand jury had been
investigating the charge of bribery
made by State Senator Whiteside,
when he turned over to joint COM
mttee 80 $1,000 bills, swearing they had
been given him and three others by
agents of w. A. Clarke, of Butte, to
influence their votes in his favor for
the federal senate. Whiteside repeated
his story to the grand jury and 33
other witnesses were examined. One
of Whiteside's co-partners denied the
story told by Whiteside before the
grand jury. Other contradictory and
refutatory evidence was given and the
jury failed to find evidence sufficient
for an indictment.
At the session of the senate yester-
day afternoon, by vote of IA to 9.
WhiteSide was unSeated on contest
for his Office and a Republican oppo-
rent given the seat. Nine Democrats
and five Republicans voted to unseat
him. All those who voted for White
side were Democrats In the Joint ses-
sion Whiteslde made a long speech, in
which he made charges of bribery
against every man who voted for Mr..
Clark. After his speech one of the
accused members arose in his place
and violently denounced Whiteside as
a liar of the deepest dye.

After This Declaration Mr.. Butler
Withdraws Pension Am endment.
Washington, Jan. 27.-As the senate
was about to conclude considerat ton of
the pension appropriation bill late yes
terday afternoon Mr.. Butler, of North
Carolina, offered his amendment, an
nounced some time ago, providing for
the pensioning of Confederate SOL
dicrs. Upon this he took the floor and
delivered speech which. as he pro-
ceeded, developed into most uneX-
pected utterance. Mr.. Butler defend
ed the position taken by the south dur
ing the great civil conflict of a third
Of century ago. He declared that the
Eouth was right, and that history would
so record, and that every shot fired by
southern soldier was fired in defense
Of the rights of his state, conferred by
the constitution, in self defense, and in
defense of his home and freside. At
the conclusion of his speech Mr.. But
Ter withdrew his amendment.
Mr.. Bate, of Tennessee, himself dis
tinGuished Confederate officer, declared
that while the south believed it was
right. the occasion was not Opportune
for the proposition which Mr.. Butler
had made, and that the southern SOL
diers as a body did not desire pensions
from the general government. and he
expressed his satisfaction that Mr.. But
Ter had Withdrawn his amendment.
The third day Of the debate in the
house upon the bill for the reorganiza-
tion and increase of the regular army
passed without notable incident. Its
feature was an hours speech by Mr..
Grosvenor, of Ohio, whose utterances,
rightly or wrongly, are frequently sup
posed to reflect the views of the prcsi-
dent. Mr.. Grosvenor declared most en-
phatically that the present situation in
the Philippines was due to the open op-
position In this country to the ratifica-
tion Of the peace treaty He announced
that the future of the islands was Z
matter for congress to decide. and that
for the president to announce a policy
would be for him to usurp the author
ity Of congress.

Left New Foundlnnd.
st. Johns, N. F., Jan. 27.--S;ir Her.

New Foundland, sailed for England
yesterday. Owing the unfriendly re-
lations he sustained in consequence
of his methods toward both political

unique in the history of the colony.

first retiring governor who had left the
colony without receiving farewell ad-
dresses from the leading ,dignitaries of
church, state, commerce and the learn
ed professions.
Sir Herbert became governor of the
colony in 1895. During the last year of
his gOvernorship his intercourse with
the colonial ministers has been ex-
tremely strained, and in one or two
eases, notably Mr.. Morine, former
colonial minister of finance, Sir Her.
