TO SEND SOME OF THE PAPERS
PRESIDENT TO COMPLY IN PART
WITH SENATE's REQUEST.

senator Frye Makes Tint Announce
ment in the Course of His Remarks
on the Trenty-Papers VIII he Re
ceived Not Later Than Monday.
Frye Explains Why the Philip
pines Were Included In the Ces-
sion 10 the United states.
Washington, Jan. 27.-The Senate con-
tinued the consideration of the peace
treaty in executive session to-day. the
doors being closed for almost three hours
Senator Frye. a member of the Paris
peace commission, and naturally a strong
friend of the treaty, held the attention
of The Senate during the great part of
this time Constructively. he occupied the
floor during the entire session, but he
was frequently interrupted by other sena-
tors. Most OF these interruptions came in
the way of questions, but some of them
took the form of speeches. This was not
ably the case with Senator Berry's inter
rupuons. He spoke for some time, and in
doing so denounced the treaty in severe
terms. Senators Mason and Caffery asked
many questions.
Senator Frye devoted himself largely 10
an explanation of the proceedings of the
commission, reading literally from the
record as already printed, but stopping
as he proceeded to explain the quotations
which he made. He had not proceeded
a great way in his exposition of the sub
| ject when he was asked If the President
had not originally instructed the commits
sion to only insist upon a coaling station
| in the Philippine group.
To this Mr.. Frye replied that he did not
| feel at liberty to give his Interpretation
| of the Presidents Instructions but Il was
not necessary that he should do so as the
| President said he had determined to COM
| ply partially at the least with the Senate $
| request for the documents on file bearing
| upon the negotiations of the treaty and
Mr.. Frye said he felt justified in assuring
| the Senate that the papers would be re-
ceived not later than Monday
| Frye Wants Early Action.
| Mr. Frye devoted the principal portion
| of his speech outside of the reading of the
report, to an explanation of why the
| Philippine archipelago was included in the
| cession to the United States.
He was reminded that the Filipnos pro-
| tessed to be hgnting for freedom Just as
! the Cubans were, and that they were still
contending for their own independence
| one senator reminded him of the repre-
| sensations of Aguinaldo's American agent,
| Agoncillo. and asked if he meant TO force
| the Filipino people to actual hostilties, to
| which Mr.. Frye retorted that Il was the
opposition which was forcing continu-
ance of the state of war, and which would
be responsible for hostiiues should they
occur The treaty should have been rad-
fed ten days ago, and if it had been all
danger of war with the people of the Phil
| ippine Islands would have been averted

sweeping the country between the Bay
of Manila and Bay lake, south of
Manila. By noon the country had been
cleared almost to Paranaque.
The Americans lost 2 officers killed
and 81 soldiers wounded. The rebels
resisted desperately at the stronger Of
their positions and left 90 dead in the
trenches. Many more wounded were
left behind by the rebels in their re-
treat. The heat during the day was
overpowering and there were many
prostrations Of American soldiers from
that cause.
General Lawten's force consisted of
two battalions each of the Twenty first

the Colorado volunteers and detach-
ment Of artillery. The Nevada cavaly

Of light artillery were under General
Ovenshine. 1t was scarcely dawn when
the troops, in along, silent procession,
wound up hillside behind the Ameri-
can trenches and formed a skirmish
line. Concealed in the jungle, the adj
vance rebe, outposts fired few shots
before being seen. The opposing forces
occupied two ranges of crescent shaped
hills. The artillery, the Colorado in
fantry and the Nevada cavalry swung
around the hill top the left and
opened the battle at $3.50. The rebels
made no response from the hills and
the Colorado men cautiously advanced
through the thick grass, until they were
confronted by trench, from which a
few weak volleys were fired. A spirited
response followed and charge into the
trench found it to be deserted.
In the meantime part Of the Thir-
teeth and Fourteenth regiments formed
in skirmish line, extending a mile to
the right, and supported by the rest of
the regiments, swept down the valley
and up the hillside toward another
trench. Approaching the morass seri-
ously hampered the Fourteenth, and the
rebels, taking advantage of this, poured
q CALLING fire upon them for 30 minutes.
The Fourteenth was twice compelled to
withdraw for the purpose of finding a
safe crossing in the swamp. Finally,
the trench was anfiladed on both TANKS.
The rebels fed to the woods and sus-
tanned severe loss. General Lawton
then pushed his entire command south,
through the center of the isthmus until
q few miles south Of Paranaque, where
he swung around and halted on account
of the heat. ~ .~. ! -'s.f -.

with no attempt on either side to foul.
Of course when big men like these get
tired, there 10 more or less clinching.
In my opinion, Jeffries had shade the
best Of it for the last seven rounds. jeff.
ries is unquestionably young man OF
remarkable strength. It was a good
fight from start to finish and the best
man won." yH}H itsH~a.ls
E1-Champion Robert Fitzsimmons
said to World correspondent:
81 fully expected to win, but didn't.
Jeffries won because he was the best
man. I could not believe that he had
improved SO much. He is young,
strong. quick and clever. I have no
excuse to make on the score Of condi-
ton and over-confidence. I was in per-
feet trim, better, really than I ever was
before, and fought the best I could.
Jeffries is now the champion of the
world beyond question. He won the
title fairly and squarely, and he now
has chance to make a great deal of
money. Let him go ahead and get it,
and /, for one, will not modest him for
the present. Of course, I may chal-
lenge him but it was all 50 sudden that
I have not had time to decide just what
Twill do. 1t is not improbable that I
will ask him for another chance"
In response to congratulations the
new champion said: .- Il.
"Fitzsimmons fought a good and
game battle and hit me harder than any
man have been up against. I would
gain nothing by meeting Sharkey again,
but am willing to meet any man in the
world in whom the public has conf
dence and there need be no fear of my
quitting the ring for the stage. No, I'll
defend my title as champion at all
times and against all Corners"

The 10th was in reality where the
fight ended. Jeffries rushed his oppo-
nent and downed him with q left swing.
Fitzsimmons seemed out and there was
a moment of the widest excitement.
Julian ran along the side of the ring
and sprinkled water on his fallen idol.
At the end of seven seconds Fitzsim-

He shot his left to the body and tried

calm and collected, but, the time was
too short. Again did the gong come to
the aid Of the man who was then going,
staggering and dazed,. to certain defeat.
There was frantic effort to revive the
champion, but he was clearly gone and
his seconds could not restore him. The
gong changed again and the old fighter
wobbled out to meet the sturdy young
Hercules, who awaited him. It was as
courageous and gritty dash as up to
the firing line in battle, but it was hope
less. It was splendid moment and
full of melodramatic intensity that
characterizes a tragedy. Jeffries was
as fresh as at the start. There was a
moment of sparring and the giant arms
of the Californian shot out through the
air. 1t was left and right and all over.
Fitzsimmons, limp and unconscious,
dropped to the floor. Jeffries stepped
back, for he knew the force that had
been put behind his terrible blows. The

THE CONTEST IN DETAIL.
Fitzsimmons Made a Hard Fight Against
4 the Inevitable.

Z the Inevitable.
Fitzsimmons' entry into the ring at
1905 o'clock was made the occasion for
theatrical demonstration. Jeffries
was next into the arena and like his
opponent got demonstrative reception.
Fitzsimmons looked lanky and thin, but
his skin was clear, his eye bright and
his step elastic. Jeffries looked sturdy
and massive and seemed a little ner-
vous. He got the worst of the assign
ment of corners, for the great light
shone in his face and he blinked at them
in a nervous sort of way. There was
no long delay at the ring and the big
gong sounded almost as soon as the
men had been presented and gloved.
When they squared off Jefries looked so
pounds to the good. The opening was
tryout pure and simple and not q
single blow Of an effective nature was
landed. First one was the pacemaker
and then the other essayed the pressing.
They were, however, almost equally
active and their work recompensed the
crowd for the lack Of excitement. The
second round began in q businesslike
fashion with Jeffries getting in bis left.
Fitzsimmons then took turn, but was
short, just as the round closed -.
Jenries Downsd Fitxsimmons
with q hard straight left on the jaw.
The champion came up slowly In 9
dazed sort Of way and reeled towards
his man. The crowd fcheered Jeffries,
but the gong ended the round. Fitz-
simmons rallied in the rest and was
aggressive again in the third. He was
bleeding, but fighting, viciously. He
made the pace, but it was the Califor-
mans round. The fourth was fast, but
not decisive.
Fitzsimmons made his best showing
in the fifth. He began the round with
punch that opened Jsffries' left eye
and sent little torrent Of blood cours-
ing down his cheek. He forced Jefries
against the ropes, but the Californian
slipped awag from him. He made

for Fitzsimmons never regained his bal

the round with straight left on the
face that again brought the blood out
Of his opponents mouth. The Cornish
man staggered against the ropes but
came back for another facer, There
was fear in Fitzsimmons' corner and
Julian yelled to him to be careful. Fitz-
