BRYAN FELL ON HIS BACK. :
Texan Trounces the Gold Democrats
for INSTRUMENTATION.

Washington, Jan. 31.-RepresentatNe
Lanham (Tex) delivered an extended
speech on the question Of the reorgan-
ization of the democratic party. 1t was
unbridled audacity, he said, on the part
Of the gold democrats to demand pn
their return to the party that they
should head the procession. The talk,
therefore, of party reorganiza ton was
puerile. The effort to shelve Bryan, he
urged, was premature. He had fallen
with his back to the field and his feet
to the foe. He was a splendid American
citizen and democrat. 1t was improb-
able that he ever again would aspire
to the nomination, but it was yet too
early to discuss future candidates.
Mr. Lanham declared that those who
had left the party must return--if at all
prepared to subscribe to the cardinal
doctrine Of the party-acquiescence in
the will of the majority

PETTIGREW STILL AT IT.
Hammering at the Senate While His
Seat Lasts.

Washington. JAN 31.-In the senate to
day Mr.. Pettigrew referred again to the
fact that the senate had refused to pass
his resolutions making inquiry for the
facts concerning the situation in the
Philippines. He asserted his belief that
the official records would show that the
battle of February was ordered from
Washington and he charged that only
such facts We're given to the public as
suit the party now in power. He charged
that Notwithstanding the instructions to
the Paris commission had been sent to
the senate in secret, the president had
quoted copiously from them in his letter
of acceptance. emitting such portions as
did not suit his purpose, land yet" he
said, 1.-The senate refused to make the
document public" He also charged that
General MacArthur's report had been
suppressed for partisan purposes and
that the reports of the Taft commission
We're colored upon records from Wash
ington to fit the emergency. He assert
ed that the Filipinos are not enemies of
the United States and he hoped they
would be successful in their contest for
liberty.
II hope the day will never come" said
he, when l shall cease to sympathize
with people struggling for liberty, no
matter where they are
Mr.. Pettigrew introduced and had read
long letter from Thor<ls Mascardo,
a military governor Of one Of the Philip
pine provinces in which it was charged
that severer terms had been inflicted
upon the Filipinos by the American
troops than the Spaniards had ever been
guilty Of. Robbery, pillage, violation
and murder the letter said. ARE the
first proofs of protection we receive
when the American soldiers enter Fill
pinO community"
The letter writer characterized General
Otis as the blind instrument of the
ambitious Mckinley
Mr. Pettigrew said he would not cite
this letter if the charges made in it We're
not confirmed by letters from American
soldiers themselves. He believed these
barbarities were practiced by the Mac
