Body Which he Described.

Richard 0'Brien, Of North Adams,
Mass. who was a witness Monday. con-
tinued his testimony yesterday before
the Senate Committee on the Philippines.
He had not yet received the alleged
''dum-dum bullets which he said he
had brought back with him from the
Philippines. and which he had promised
/ to present to the committee yesterday
morning.
Senator Patterson. upon whose request
witness was held over to produce these
bullets, remarked:
Il don't give any credit to the propo-
sltion that any but perfectly proper and
legitimate bullets were ever supplied to
the American soldier" and he insisted
that the witness should remain in the
city until the bullets are found.
Effect of Bullet.
Witness was examined closely as to
the effect Of the dun dunn" bullets. In
answer to Senator Culberson he said
he could not state how far away he was
from the body of the man whose abdomen
had been ripped, he declared. by an ex-
plosive bullet.
Later he said to Senator Beverage
that the bullet after ripping the abdomen
had entered the inside OF one arm. max
ing small hole. and where it had come
out on the other side OF the arm was a
large hole. He could not explain why !
the bullet. after exploding in the abdo- |
men. had made only small hole in the |
arm. He still refused to say how near
he had been to the body. and he denied
that he had examined it closely

Because OF the extraordinary testi-
mony of this witness and the many con-

made SO many charges. 1t is hoped that
the officer will be before the committee

A MENACE TO SENATE.
Objection Raised to Message That House
Had Instructed COnferees.

The message from the House was pre-
scented TO the Senate yesterday afternoon
asking for further conference ON the
army appropriation bill, and stating that
the House had instructed its conferees
not to consent to Senate amendments -,
II. and Is, appropriating some four mil
lion dollars for the construction of mill
tary barracks at army posts, applying
principally to Manila.
Such instructions we're severely criti-
cised by Senators Hoar. Allison. Culiom,
Spooner. and other Senators as subyersive
of the whole system of conference com
mittees, and as menace against the
Senate.
Finally. as Mr.. Proctor (Rep., VII, who
has charge of the bill, was not in the
chamber. the matter was allowed to lie
over till today. when 1t will be taken up
and will probably open M an angry dis
cussion and a bitter controversy between
the two houses.
