regular order. Toward the close of the
day it was diversified by a passage at
arms between Senators Spooner and
Tillnan. 1t was particularly exquisite.
because each tried to outdo the other
in courtesy; but it lacked neither snap
nor fire. Then Senator Money OF Mis-
sissippi pranced to the front. He put
all newspaper reports aside, and dis
cussed-not the bill-but the whole
Philippine question. He handled it as
though it was a ripe watermelon. At
ter an exceedingly amiable confab with
Senators Hale and Beveridge he made
an argument so statesmanlike and in
structive that it fell on the Senate like
shower on parched soil. When ne
closed Senator Platt of Connecticut,
began to rake the embers of the old
fire, and Dubois was tanning them into
a. flame when Cullom of Illinois Sc
dately wheedled the disputants into an
executive session, and the days work
was ended.
On the next day Senator Bacon es-
saved a flank movement by proposing
to enact part of the bilp into joint
resolution, but Lodge checked him by
an objection. Here everybody swung
from their moorings. An hour or more
was consumed in discussing an alleged
charge made by Senator Bacon. which
the Senator said he never made, con-
cerning an alleged order issued by the
Secretary of War which the Secretary
had never made. The whole day was
spent in wrangling over newspaper re-
ports and misunderstanding. Senator
Spooner aptly summed up the situa-
ton when he said that IL was not a bill
to determine the ultimate policy of the
United States concerning the Philip
pines, nor was il a bill to establish
government in those islands. 1t was
not a bill permanent in it's nature. 1t
was simply bill temporarily to pro-
vide revenne for the islands. Viewing II
in this light, Lodge was the only senar
tor who had confined his remarks 70
the bill. Debate thus far was general
in its nature and had nothing whatever
to do with the bill. No one needed this
rebuke. Even Spooner himself disre-
garded it, Within three minutes he was
indulging i'm an intellectual rough and
tumble with Tillman in regard TO
lynchings in the South and outrages
in the Philippines. Finally each ac-
cused the other of having his head
tangled, and i'm the double confusion
Senator Teller got the floor. He went
to the marrow of the Philippine ques-
tion in short order, but had nothing
whatever to say concerning the bill
before the Senate. This drew him into
a free fight. i'm which Senators Lodge,

erable senior statesman from Massa-
chusetts were involved. When the fight
was over the senator from Colorado
disgorged himself of lot of newspa-
per extracts from the pen of Stephen
Bonsal, and the Senate finally sought
refuge in executive session.
On the following day the discussion
opened with an hours furry over the
number of troops furnished by the
thirteen colonies in the Revolutionary
war. 1t would undoubtedly have proved
of absorbing interest to those who wore
the continental uniform, but it had
nothing to do with the question at is
sue. After this another hour was spent
in disproving an insinuation that Gen.
Wheaton was charity boy when he
entered West Point. From this the dis
cussion drifted to the charge that there
was a government censorship in the
philippines. On the authority of the
Secretary of War. Senator Lodge de-
MED it, This matter apparently settled,
Senator Stewart began to enlighten the
Senate with historical parallels as ap-
piled TO our occupation OF the Philip
pines. He started in with William the
Conqueror and ambled down the aisle
of history finding many precedents
for the course OF the United States with
regard to those islands. 1t was speech
replete with information, but one that
stirred the historical resources of Sen
ator Bacon. The Georgian began to an
swer it, but within few minutes flew
the track. and resumed the contest
over the war of the Revolution. In re-
tiecting somewhat on the action of
Massa chusetts in that war he quoted
a letter from the late Gov John II
Russell. This touched Senator Hoar
on the raw. He threw in few antique
contributions with regard to Bur-
goyne's surrender and the capture OF
CORVALLIS. and was about to continue,
when Senator Cullom suggested an ex-
ecutive session. Mr.. Hoar sarcastica1ly
urged him to give way to a brief dis
cusson as to the character Of Mary
Queen Of Scots, but the Illinois states
man stood firm. and the Senate took
long breath and lapsed into execu-
tive session.
Two days afterward Senator John r.
Morgan of Alabama, sent up an amend
ment, and took the floor. He made n
speech worthy of the days OF Calhoun
and Benton, 1t covered all the law
points In the bill-it bristled with them
and oiled the thinking machines of
his colleagues. The speech was diversi-
fled by little whirlpools of interroga-
tory. These lasted until the executive
session.
