ment against the members of the so
called packers combine Is now in

that if the packers or their agents
continue with their present alleged
uniform arrangements they will be
taken into court on contempt pro
be on them to show that they have
not violated the order in any partic.
ular. Little opposition was raised
against the governments petition.
Attorney John s. Miller, who was the
sole representative of the packers
present. pointed out some objection

At the same time the order was en-
tered numerous affidavits and other

$>Tx-

Washington, May 21.-The subject
q the concentration of the inhabi
tAnts In the Philippines into camps
was leading topic of the discussion
q the Philippine bill in the senate yes
terday. Mr.. Bacon, Of Georgia, at
tackled the policy Of concentration,
likening 1t to the reconcentrado
camps established by General Weyler
il Cuba.
Mr.. Foraker, of Ohio, defended the
action Of the military authorities in
establishing the camps in the Philip
rnes as wise and proper and as a
Means of protecting friendly Fflipinos
from assassination at the, hands of
rowing bands Of insurgents. He read
a description of the camps to show
that they were really camps of in
struction and sanitation.
Mr.. Hoar, of Massachusetts, spoke
briefly in line with Mr.. Bacon, criti-
cising the concentration camps and
pointing out the difficulty in getting
army officers to testify regarding the
situation.
Yesterdays debate was closed by
Mr.. Clapp, of Minnesota, in an elo-
Quent speech, in which he urged that
the Filipinos ought to be taught to
admire and respect the United States
as a nation which always had stood
for liberty and progress and never
had broken it's word to any people,
great or small.

Washington, May 21.-For a third
time within a week the house has in
structed its conferees on matters of
dispute between the senate and house.
Yesterday the instructions were given
on amendments in the army appropri

even considered the matter in contro.
versy. The motion TO instruct was
made by Mr.. Cannon. Of Illinois, chair
man Of the appropriation committee.
It was resisted by Mr.. Hull, chairman
of~the COMMITTEES on military affairs,
and the somewhat spirited debate
which followed developed antagon-
ism between the committees. The
amendment at which Mr.. Cannon
aimed was that which increased the
appropriation for military posts from
three to four million dollars.
A resolution offered by Mr.. Hit,
chairman of the foreign affairs com
mittee. facilitating Cuba on her indie.
pendence was passed unanimously.
