Tn such cases. Mr. Teller I don't thin doubt that General Wheat Is attributed to him. Mir. Lodge-There may be
 of doubt of it.
 MT. Teller, continuing, said suo uation as had arisen was one of the ings growing out of the conditions in Philippines.
 TO SHUT OFF TALK.
 A paddock, he said. was to be placed upon the mouth of every man, Congress man or private citizen and all criticisms Of the administrations Philippine policy was to be silenced. He referred to the criticisms of Senators who had antago- nized the administration policy in the Philippines, declaring they had been charged even with treason.
 T suppose" he said. that a Senator after awhile will not be able to read on tlfis floor the Declaration of Independ- ence without subjecting himself to charge of melting treason
 He said that if Professor Schurmans speech was published in the Philippines it was known over there that he proposed the Filipinos should ultimately have their independence.
 Anybody" he asserted, "who will criticise the utterance in that speech would criticize the Declaration of Inde- pendence if he dared to do so."
 MT. Lodge said Mr. Teller's statement concerning the Declaration of Independ- ence was silly" What President Schur- man said in Boston did not in his opinion, concern the Senate. The only point was whether a general of the United States army had criticised the Senate It did not appear from the dispatch that General Wheaton had referred to the Senate at all. He had a perfect right to comment upon Professor Schurman's utterance if he wanted to. It would be most unusual proceedings to assume that General Wheaton was guilty of any indiscretion until he had been heard from.
 In response to inquiries by Mir. Rawiins of Utah. MT. Lodge said he did not know whether newspaper dispatches sent from Manila here were censured or not and he did not know whether General Wheaton had made the statements credited to him. QUESTIONS HIS RIGHs.
 Mir Carmack of Tennessee questioned the right of any officer of the United States army to criticise either the actions or utterances of any private citizen.
 Mir. Hoar of Massachusetts contended that no unsupported newspaper report on matter of this kind ought to be ac- cepted by the Senate He therefore depre- cated the Introduction of the Manila dis pute into the Senate proceedings. LODGE APoLoeIzEs.
 MT. Lodge said he desired to apologize for referring to anything Mir. Teller may have said as silly and pointed out that the statement of General Wheaton did not criticize the minority of the Senate but simply Professor Schurman. He in- sisted that there was no disposition on the part of anybody to suppress news or views. He instanced the circulation of letter urging the soldiers in the army of the Philippines not to continue in service. Who sent out that circular? inquired Mir. Jones of Arkansas.
