Warm Debate In the Senate on Island
Possessions.
WASHINGTON, May 25.-The duty OF
the United States toward its ''insular
possessions was the subject of heated
discussion in the senate again yester-
day. Soon after the senate convened
Bacon (Ga) began an extended rep,y
to the speech of Platt Comm, deliv-
cred Wednesday. His speech was large
" supplemental to that which he de
livered several days ago, demanding an
investigation of Cuban financial affairs.
His resolution, to which there is little
or no opposition, under the rules went
to the committee on contingent ex-
penses.
The remainder of the afternoon was
occupied by spooner (Wis.) in conclud
ing his speech on the Philippine ques-
ton. The debate which he aroused
took turn decidedly political. He
charged the socalled anti-imperialists
with creating AN issue which was MOI
legitimate. Many of his statements
were controverted by Allen (Neb.) and
Pettigrew Is. Do, and the controversy
at times became almost personal.

WAsHINGToN, May 25.-The plan of
campaign of the Boer peace commits
sioners has not yet been fully outlined.
They probably will remain in Wash
ington until next Tuesday, after which
they will begin tour of the west, as
has been previously intimated.
Mr.. Fischer is now busy outlining
this itinerary, but said that it was too
early to give any definite details of the
plan. Mr.. Vessels, one of the mem
bers, who speaks good English, proba
bly, will go to Bridgeport on Saturday
night with Representative Lentz of
Ohio to address a pro-Boer meeting
there.
The delegates have not yet decided
whether on not they will issue an Off
cial statement before leaving Washing
ton. They feel that under the circum-
stances this would be a delicate under
taking and no matter how carefully it
was worded would be liable to miscon-
struction. Therefore it is quite probable
that their statements will be confined
to whatever addresses they may make
| at the pro Boer meetings which are be.
