WASHINGTON, May g.-There was
typical scene before the Senate committee
on the Philippines at the hearing this morn
ing Richard O'Brien, an actor, formerly
of North Adams. Mass, at one time cor
poral in the United States army, who saw
service in the Philippines, had told a dread
full tale of atrocities committed by Ameri-
can soldiers. He said that orders had ex-
listed that there were to be no prisoners,
and that all captives taken were to be
killed; that women with babes at their
breasts were burned in the little nipa huts;
that explosive bullets were used, and that
the rule of the army was generally bar
barous. The cross-examinatiOn Of this wit
ness was turned over TO Senator Beverage.
He told his bloody narrative again, when
il was developed that he did not know a
''dumdum' bullet from an explosive bullet
and that he had never seen either in use
actually, and while he had used some
strange ammunition he did not know what
it was. Senator Beverage had him tell in
detail about the burning of a woman, and
it was developed that he could not have
seen her. He had never received any or
ders to kill prisoners and never heard of
any such orders. He said that such in
structions were merely passed along the
lines and it was not known where they
came from. The witness was left entirely
discredited when the Indiana senator got
through with him.

was that of woman and two children, one
in her arms, who were killed and then
burned up in their house.
O'Brien said that when the company was
out marching single file at night in the
mountains the order came back along the
line to take no prisoners but he did not
know who issued the order. In case there
was fighting the natives either fled or were
killed
The witness also told OF the execution of
the bandit Pedro Gargamo at the town of
Guimal. for which, he said Mcdonald was
tried by court-martial. He said it was COM
mon talk that before Gargamo was killed
he was struck on the back of the head with
a bolo. The witness said IL was 'unwritten
law out there TO take no prisoners.
He said 'dumdum" bullets were issued
in the regular way with other ammunition.
He said seen them strike man and take
the top of his head off. He could not tell
whether IL was one of his own comrades or
a native He was questioned closely by Sen
ator Beverage, and described them as ex-
plosive bullets. He had not written about
these bullets, although he considered the
use of them revolving.
Answering questions as to the burning of
a woman and two children he said the
woman was in a bamboo shack, and APP
peared at the door or the window. No eff
fort was made to rescue her, but 1t would
have been impossible, although she came to
the door while the shack was burning.
He spoke of some articles that he had
written for the papers, but said he wanted
1t understood that he was not under oath
when he wrote them.
In answer to Senator McComas he said
that his company occasionally took prison
ers that were not killed. He had seen
many prisoners held by other commands,
and they were all being treated kindly and
were not being shot or killed. He admitted
that the killing of prisoners was not gen
eral. The killing of prisoners was mat
ter that lay with the officers"
Answering Senator Dietrich he said that
his command usually treated the Filipinos
kindly He said his captain was known as
a niger hater." He (OBrien) had never
prisoners
Replying to Senator Patterson he said
the explosive bullets did not have the gov
eminent stamp upon them. He expects to
receive some Of these bullets tomorrow
when he will continue his testimony.
