Washington, Jan. 2s.-An animated
and prolonged discussion was precipi.
tated in the senate yesterday over the
right of army Officers to criticise utter
anees made in the senate or elsewhere
on the conduct Of affairs in the Philip
pines. At times it became somewhat
acrimonious. officers in the Philippines
being taken abruptly to task for state
ments attributed to them in dispatches
from Manila.
Rising to question Of privilege early
In the session, Mr.. Dubois Of Idaho had
read an Associated Press dispatch from
Manila in which Gen. Wheaton was
quoted s.s criticising some utterances
of Prof. Schurman in speech deiiY-
ersl in Boston. Mr.. Dubois thought
the president, in the circumstances,
would, be warranted in reprinanding
Gen. Wheaton for his criticism. He
declared that such comment upon the
action of the senate was outrageous
and indecent and that the minority
had had quite enough of threats ana
blacknail. The debate. thus precipi-
tated, took wide range. Mr.. Lodge
Of Massachusetts, Mr.. Spooner Of Wis
consin, and others maintained that 10
newspaper utterances ought to be ac-
cented as the basis OF a reprimand OF
anyaof1icer unless it were supported by
an. Investigation indicating the accur-
acS of the report.

The house adopted a resolution call
