The Dakota Senator Makes Severe
Attack on Otis and the
Administration.
Declares the Government Has I'm
Justly Treated Filipinos and is
Suppressing Information.
Admiral Dewey's Report Sent to the
Senate -Spooner Offers a SEN
sible Resolution.

Washington, Jan. 11.--In the senate
today spooner of Wisconsin, intro
duced a bill providing that when the
Philippine insurrectfon is suppressed
the government of the islands shall be
vested in such person and persons as
the president may direct, pending more
definite action by congress.
Pettigrew's resolution regarding the
attempt to open negotiations With the
Filipinos was taken up. Hoar offered a
similar resolution of broader scope.
Lodge offered a further amendment to
include any information of the plans of
the Filipinos touching the uprising in
Manila for the destruction of foreign
property and massacre of the residents:
also regarding the treatment of piis-
oners by the insurgents; also informa-
tion touching the dissemination of anti
imperlalistic literature among the in
surgents and soldiers serving in tine
Philippines. Hoar assented to Lodge $
proposal ard said he also wanted the
presidents instructions to the Philip
pine commission. Pettigrew charged
Lodge with trying 10 suppress iiloi ma
ton and insisted on having his resolu-
ton acted On separately.
Pettigrew charged the administration
with suppressng facts about the do
ings in the Philippines for political
purposes; that Otis altered the presi-
dents proclamation; that he deiraua-
ed the Filipinos and that the admins
tration had humbugged the American
people.
Pettigrew charged that The United
States commenced the war. first. by

DEwEN,s REPORT.
Long Sends senate the Admirafs Re

Washington, Jan. Responding to
the senate's resolution of inquiry. the
secretary of the navy today sent to the
senate Dewey's report from Hong Kong
dated March 81. 1895, relative to the cap
ture of Manila. The report Is made in
response to Il telegram of inquiry from
the secretary. The admiral gives in de-
tail the names of available vessels un-
der his command and lists Spain's YES
sells and other means of defense at Ma
Mia He stated that his own squadron
was in a high state of efficiency. He said
the Spanish force numbered 10000 sol
diers in all the islands, of which half
were in the vicinity of Manila.
"The islands are in Il state of insur-
rection and my Informant states that
even the Spanish soldiers, who aonsti-
tute only small part of the whole. are
disaffected. Both the ships and forts
are in need of ammunition.
To this statement he added the fol-
lowing: Il believe ] am not over-confi-
dent in stating that with the squadron
under my command the vessels could be
taken and the defenses of Manila re
duced in one day. There is every reason
TO believe, with Manila taken. or ever
blockaded, the rest of the islands woulc
fall. either to the insurgents or our
selves. as they are only held through tbs
support of the navy and are dependen
upon Manila for supplies. Information
has just reached me that there are 800
armed rebels in camp near Manila. wh,
are willing to assist US.

sentative at Pretoria, to care for British
interests. This is an act without prece-
dent in modern diplomatic history
New York Jan. 11.--A Washington
dispatch to the Tribune says:
The state department has no informa-
ton indicating that Consul Hollis at
Pretoria is receiving from the Boer gov
ernment any more recognition as a rep
resentative of British interests than
was vouchsafed to Consul Macrum be-
fore he abandoned his post No dis
patches on the subject have been re-
ceived from him, nor has the British
government made formal complaint
that it is not receiving the Intelligence
it desired from Hollis regarding the
names and conditions of prisoners con-
fined at Pretoria. but in the absence of
definite knowledge the state department
officials are disposed to believe Presi-
dent Kruger does not intend to permit
the United states consul IN renresent
any other interests than those Of strict
ly American commercial character.
Whether'there will be amy modifica
ton of this attitude when Consul Hay
breaches his post at Pretoria about the
last of this month is problematical, but
in the meantime there is no question
that the Beers conduct of the affair is
likely to come TO an issue. That the
ltreatment accorded to the efforts Of the
United States representative, who is
presumed to maintain his strict neu-
ltrality, causes chagrin to this govern
jment is undeniable.

Washington. Jan. 1l.-Public men
here say that it is not likely that Secre

American consul, as it is reported here
that young Hay. prior to his departure
from London. had a lengthy consulta-
ton with John Hay Hammond. the
American citizen charged with treason
against the republic, and on his arrival
in London spent some time in close con-
ference with British foreign officials.
This, it is said, would make him per-

the son of the former ambassador to
Great Britain, and naturally imbibed
English prejudices during his stay in
