today as the result of some statements
made by Mr.. Carmack, democrat OF

speech on the general Philippine question.

in the senate, and he was given notably
good attention on both sides Of the cham
Der. He spoke without manuscript, with
earnestness, force and eloquence.

had been listened to by many OF his former
colleagues In the house Of representatives,
Mr.. Beverage of Indiana, challenged some
Of his statements. The debate which en-
sued was lively for a few minutes, taking
on a political phase which proved interest
