demand was made by the Central upon
the syndicate that is combining Illinois
and Indiana coal mines for some agree
ment that its carrying revenue in the
future would not be hampered by the
eliminating of competition. To this
only an eyasive reply was given,
whereupcn the road refused to deal
longer with the ]. Pierpont Morgan

means that the Chicago and Eastern
Illinois railroad may endeavOr to en-
large her coal carrying to the expense
of other coal roads of the state. The
present contest may delay the plans

indianapolis. Jan. 2S.-The United

regarded by many of the delegates as
the most important action of the con-

diana district No. IL providing that
the convention should levy an assess

ization sufficient for the purpose Of
carrying to a speedy and successful
termination all strikes now engaged in

siderable debate a motion that the
convention make the assessment was
passed.
Only Covers Endorsed Strikes.
Another motion that the amount of
the assessment be left 10 the national
executive bOart. TO determine was
passed, and on motion of Reese, of
Iowa, the board was instructed to re-
port 70 this convention. Before the
noon adjournment President Mitchell,

ton that the levy was to cover only
such strikes as have the Endorsement

Spooner deemed it the part of wis
dom to ascertain first whether General

tributed to him, before any attempt
was made to secure his censure.
Tillman interrupted to inquire who
would furnish the proof that the dis
patch read had not been inspired.
SpOoner replied that he did not believe
is was either inspired or censored, but
felt that the senate ought to await
definite information. General Wheat

Money made an extended speech in
criticism Of the governments policy in
the Philippines, declaring: I'VE are
committed to it, / suppose, until we
have a lucid interval, and we are not
likely soon to have that" He MAIN
tanned that the United States in acquir-
ing the islands and holding them had
done one of the most foolish things
ever done by a nation, and he was
afraid we should mot have sense
enough to retrace our steps,"
Hale interrupted to say that the sit
uation in the Philippines will grow
worse instead of better, and that it is
anomalous to mix the military and
civil government. Replying to a ques-
ton of Hale as to what he would do
with the islands, Money said: Let
them go to the devil and take care of
themselves, as far as the American
people are concerned"
Money, answering Hoar. said that
before the United States declared war
there were village governments, peace
full and successful, in the Philippines.
Hoar said that Washington had de-
clared that that was the test of capac-
ity fer self-government.
Plat of Connecticut said he did not
want to let occasion pass without ex-
pressing his emphatic dissent from the
principle OH which Moneys remarks
were founded. The Mississippi SEN
ator, he said. had not questioned our

where the constitution was not, and
that we ought to accord to the Fill

quire territory and hold sovereignty
over the same 1t would be a stultifica-
ton OF ourselves to yield our rights to
that territory as soon as the inhabit-
ants of the territory might demand
their independence.
