Hull explained In detail the conces-

In the course Of his statement he had
a sharp exchange with Richardson. He
made a strong appeal to both sides Of
the house In favor of the provisions de-
signed to promote General Shafter as
major general. and Generals Lee and
Wilson as brigade generals. which the
house had stricken out. He paid a high
tribute to Generals Lee and Wilson
and passed glowing eulogy upon
shafter, whose Santiago campaign, he
declared. would pass into history as
one OF the greatest planned and fought
in any age.
Richardson said that several elues-
tlons upon which the house solemnly
declared itself had been yielded by the
house conferees. To vote for the report
would mean to vote to increase the list
OF officers upon the retired list, 10
