of advancing the political ambitions Of Mr.
Mckinley
If this action, said Pettigrew, put the
administration in a hole. as was stated, it
was not his fault.
Pettigrew reverted to the assertion that
the acquisition of the Philippines was
brought about by the act of God, but. he
said, the only way he could see Gods hand
in the work was that God must have used
Mckinley as a prophet or appeared to the
president in a vision. At the conclusion OF
Pettigrews speech the resolution OF Hoar
was passed without division.
The resolution introduced several days
ago by Hale OF Maine, calling on the secre-
tary of state for information in possession
of the State department relating to the
seizure and detention OF American flour by
British authorities in Delagoa bay South
Africa, was laid before the senate. After It
had been modified Platt Of Connecticut made
a speech, in which he said he did not be-
lieve the passage of the resolution at this
time wise.
Davis, chairman of the committee on for
eign relations, said that the resolution was
prematurely introduced. He indicated that
the subject of the resolution was now under
diplomatic negotiation. No conclusion to
that consideration has yet been reached.
Davis said it was a question whether some
of the assertions of the resolution were
true.
1T is said this -four is not contraband" d"
he continued This may or may not be
true but it is a question of fact to be de-
termned whether this -four is for use of
an active hostile"
Davis said it did not become the senator
(Hale) to introduce such resolution at this
time.
But" said Davis, what strikes me as
most to be criticised in the resolution is
the concluding paragraph. 1t is stated that
IL the detention OF the property Is persisted
in, such act will be considered as without
warrant and offensive to the government
and people of the United States" l venture
to say that no pronunciamento upon SO i'm
portant a question was ever made by a
government until the diplomatic negotiations
relating to it had been completed. 1t Is a
statement which is made only on the verge
of hOstilities.'
That" concluded Davis, "is very serious
language. In its present form it means
serious difficulty. | think the resolution
would better be deferred"
The resolution as offered by Hale, was
materially amended Hale himself accepting
the suggestions of senators that certain OBJ
jectonable features be eliminated.
Pettigrew's resolution, calling for infor-
nation from the secretary of war as to the
fiscal operations in Cuba, introduced yes
terday, was passed without debate.
A bill relating to Cuban vessels reported
by the commerce committee was called up
by Berry OF Arkansas and passed.

citation. Nine states in the west and south

will remain in session for two or three days.
The question of binding twine supply is
one OF the big issues before the convention
and nearly all OF today's session was taken
up with a debate of this matter. d. w.

of .esolution calling upon the government
to Immediately open the hemp ports of the
Philippines.
Another resolution was adopted calling
upon congress to appoint an investigating
committee to ascertain why and in whose
interest the hemp ports have been closed so
long.
A few minutes after these resolutions
had been adopted there wns read to the

ter l. Long Of Kansas. now In Washington
stating that the War department had today
