ed in a gold shirt stud to Frank

Palace Car Works in this city who
has been promoted to be superin-

Mr.. Brobst, the general express
ion among all ofus is regret at your
leaving this, to you the most beau
tiful and homelike city you have
ever known, and the memory OF
your acquaintance will ever linger
with us. And at each spring sea-
son nature reviews it's life in reopen
ing of the buds and reappearing OF
leaves on the trees, the springing
blades of grass and the beautiful
flowers, SO will be renewed from
time to time, as here and there will
come to our eyes and ears the little
things that you have said and done.
AS there must at all times come
serious moments in our lives, SO to
speak seriously, there has been as
signed to me duty which, while it
is unpleasant personally it affords
me a great deal Of pleasure.
AS l think of the many years we
have had the pleasure Of your ac-
quaintancn, of the many little diff
erences and kind acts which to-
gether to mould and fasten the ties
of friendship, we, your fellow EN-
ployees Of the Company regret that
the time has come which must come
like some time, either in joy or sad
ness, to all of us. Years have pass
ed since we first knew you as an
employe OF this company, and they
have been years ofanXiety and hard
work to many of us, and have slipp-
ed away aSonly time can.
We congratulate you on your ad
vancement which came to you be-
cause you deserve it. We congrat-
ulate you on your new position and
hope it will prove satisfactory; and
as you leave Us whom wehope you
cherish as friends--we want to let
you take with you token of the
friendly feeling which exists be-
tween you and the managers Of
these works, the foreman and EN-
ployees.
You are advancing in years;
and sooner or later your eyes will
loose their lustre and brightness, but
we wish to present to you some
thing that will never grow dim and
whose lustre and brightness increas-
es as in darkness deepens on
behalf of the managers, foreman
and employees, present to you this
diamond stud, and may you wear
it ever thinking Of the tie that binds
our friendship, and may that tie
never be less bright than the retle"-
ton of its light.
Mr.. Bool,st responded feelingly to
the speech of Mr.. Cline, in which he
expressed his thanks for the gift of
fellow employees.

A FIERY DISCUSSION
Senator Beveridge's Sharp
Criticism Brings on Storm.
The FILIPINO QUESTION GONE OVER,
House AdjOurns For Third COnsecu-
tive Day Out Of Respect to a Dead
Member-Death of Rcpresenta-
tive Salmon of New Jersey,


tive Salmon of New Jersey.
WASHINGTON, May For almost
four hours yesterday Il fiery discussion
OF the Philippine situation ragged in the
senate. 1t was started by Mr.. Bever-
idge Qnd.), who made some sharp
structures on the members of the oppo-
sition because as he said, they per-
sisted in telling in their speeches only
one side of the story. While he admit
ted that some Outrases had been COM
mittcd by American soldiers in the
Philippines, it was true, too, that un-
paralleled kindness had been shown by
the American troops to Filipino prs
oncrs and Filipino wounded. Food
and medicine. he said, had been shared
with them, and they had been succored
on the battlefield and cared for ten
derly in the hospital. While saying
that the omission to tell this side of
the story by the Democrats was unin-
territorial, he suggested that it was un-
fair to make an arraignment Of the
American soldier and not tell both
sides.
Mr. Carmack and Mr.. Rawlins
warmly resented any imputation Of
unfairness Mr.. Rawlns declared that
no partisan motives had actuated the
opponents of the present Philippine
policy, but that they were moved only
by patriotism and love of country.
Mr.. Turner (Wash.) delivered
scathing criticism Of the methods prac-
ticed by the military authorities in the
Philippines, dwelling particularly upon
the alleged order of General Smith,
whom he denounced AS monster in
human form. He urged the Philippine
committee to. turn all the light possi-
bic on the Philippine question to the
end that the people might be fully in
formed on the situation.
Mr.. lIoar (NIassD briefly defended
the action of the Philippine commit
tee saying that already it had furnish
ed much valuable information. He
urged that the committee in all JUS
tce should call some prominent Fill
pinos to testify in their own behalf.
The house adjourned Immediately
after the reading Of the journal out of
respect to the memory of Representa-
tive ]. S. Salmon IN. JJ. This is the
third consecutive legislative day Oh
which the house has paid similar
tribute to one Of its deceased members.
Never before in the history of the
house have three desks been draped at
4 =,
remarked upon by members yesterday
in connection with the deaths Of
Messrs. Cummings, Otey and Salmon
that Mr.. Cummings was appointed on
the committee to attend the Rosecrans
obsequics at Arlington, that Mr.. Otey
was appointed on the committee to at.
tend the funeral of Mr. Cummings and
that Mr.. Salmon was designated to at
tend the funeral of Mr.. Otey.
