Senator Depew and senator Rack

ings, without any regard to rules of
parliamentary debate, u sectional
discussion, which elected some most
unfortunate expressions and exhibit
ed a bitter feeling, which Ihad hoped
never to have witnessed again in the
senate OF the United States during
my service. My public career will end
in few months, and | had fondly
hoped after the Spanish war that the
men Of the north and of the south,
who stood together like brothers
against Il foreign foe, would continue
to stand like brothers in this time of
peace.
The people Of the south are sincere
mourners at the graves of Lincoln
and Grant ana Mckinley, and no
more honest tears were ever shed
than those that dropped upon the
bier OF our late President from the
eyes OF men who had faced in battle
the soldiers of the north during four
long years.
The people of the north should re-
member that the South, too, has
produced great -and geed and
and patriotic leaders. They should
remember that Washington, Jeffer-
son and Robert L. Lee, the leader of
the confederate armies, were slave
owners, and differed widel y upon that
question with their brethren in the
northern states.

toward the present occupant OF the
white house, Colonel Roosevelt, for
what he said in the broadcast spirit OF
craftsmanship and a historian, in
his "Life of Thomas H. Benton" one
OF the American statesmen series, in
regard to Robert E. Lee He says in
that most interesting production
that Robert E. Lee was by far the
greatest general that ever came from
the English speaking races, superior
to Wellington, to Marlborough and
to his last great adversary, Ulysses
s. Grant.
Yesterday when | came to the cap

one OF the family of another great
southern leader, formerly our col
league in this chamber, that at 10
minutes before 9o'clock he had pass

great encampment upon the other

Kansas City, Mo-, April 24.-Com
mission men discovered to-day that
the packing companies have combin-

The commission men were deluged
this morning with postal cards origi-

their own customers, Offering them
prices higher than the commission
men could pay. The commission
men were unable to meet the raise,
and consequently are denouncing the
arrangement as another trust
