business in the United States Senate
Wednesday the resolution of inquiry
introduced by Mr.. Hoar of Massachu-
setts, and amended by Mr.. Lodge,
of Massachusetts, calling for general
information regarding the conduct of
the insurrection in the Philippine,
was laid before the senate.
Mr.. Pettigrew, of South D4kota, said
he desired to address the senate upon
the resolution before it passed. He
favored the passage Of the resolution,
believing that the information asked
for was entirely proper.
He declared that he had received in
formation since the introduction OF MS
resolution that assured him Of the facts
he had asserted.
1.-The blood of every soldier" he said
who has fallen since the warbegan is on
the head of theMcKinley administration

conscripted into an unwilling service
after their terms had expired. lies al

there is no escape for it.
II charged that the censorship Of
the press and the suppression Of facts
are for the purpose Of advancing the
political ambitions of Nh. Mckinley.
IF this action" said Mr.. PettigreW.
put the administration in a hole, as
vas stated, it was not his fault.
Mr.. Pettigrew reverted to the asser
ton by Senator Beveridge that the &C,
QUESTION 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 Mr.. Mckinley as prophet or ap
peared to the president in vision.
At the conclusion of Mr.. Pettigrew'E
speech the resolution Of Mr. Hoar was
passed without division.

warships within easy reach Of the
Mississippi assigned to the duty Of
escorting the mule transports when
they shall have been loaded with
animals from New Orleans for South
Africa. The presence of the warships
in the gulf waters is said to have been
brought about by advices received at
the British war Office in London to the
effect that two old hulks had been fitted
out by American sympathizers with the
Beers, with the avowed intention of
capturing and sinking the mule trans
ports as sooa as they had left the
mouth Of the river for the voyage

Fiphtinp the Trust.

The farmers of Greenwood county are

K,uge's Plans.

Paris, Oct. 29.-Dr. Leyds, Trans
Yaal agent was questioned today with
reference to the plans of ex-President
Kruger. He said:
"Most of the stories published on
the subject are imaginary. Mr.. Krug.
er will land at Marseilles, and I shall
go to meet him. 1t is not true that /
have seen M. Delcasse, French minis.
ter of foreign affairs, or that l am in
any way arranging reception whict
will be entirely in the hands of the
French themselves. Nothing has beer
definitely decided as to the details o;
Kruger's stay in Europe. But Mr..
Kruger is an old man and not accus.
toned to cold climate, so it is likely
he will sojourn in the neighborhood OF
Nice for the Wwinter.
