Criticism by Rcrry.

Mr. Berry Dem.. KY said the tamend-
meht proposed petty instead of grand
larceny of the people of Porto Rico He
rldlculed the Luxurious debate through
which the house had passed over the
question of what the United States~
meant under the constitution. If this
country had been called ''ColumbiT' in
stead of the United States" POO page
of The Congressional Record could have
been eliminated. No one would have,
had the hardihood to contend then than
the constitution did not extend over ev
cry foot of the soil.
Mr.. DE Almond Dem.. MOI called ot-
tention to the peculiar language of the
substitute. The words "coming into
the United States" he said, were nlainlv
intended to cvadc the constitution. H,t
be argued, the ''inul,erng of the uuee.,1s
Eh=lisll" and the violation of the canoo,,
OF language could not make it cons Ii
