DEFENDED TIE ARMY.
Genator Lodge Makes an imprisoned
Speech.

Washington, May EN- vindication
OF the administration policy in the
Philippines. Mr.. Lodge (Mass.), chair
man OF the Philippine committee, adj
dressed the senate Monday His re-
view of the situation in the islands
and of the utterances Of the minority
IN criticism OF the conditions there
was notably interesting, forceful and
effective. He spoke with deep earnest
ness and at times became eloquent.
He said every effort had been en-
ployed by the officials In authority to
prevent such cruelties as had been re-
ferred to and measures had been taken
to punish those guilty of them. Such
things. however, were incidents of ev-
cry war and could not be prevented abb
solutely. He had no defense to make
Of many of the cases of torture which
Had been cityd, but the men of the
American army had been provoked al
most beyond human endurance He
recited scores OF instances of cruelties
and tortures praCticed by the Filipino
insurgents on American prisoners.
Men had had their ears cut off; had
beens disembowled; had been driven
into streams and, while drowning, shot
TO death; had been tied to trees and
stoned to death by women and chill
dren, and buried alive Others had
been shot. and boloed treacherously
willis succoring the wounded. In the
face of these horrible atrocities, some
OF the American troops had been
guilty of administering the water
cure but the instances of this kind
were isolated and no part of the gen.
eral policy in the Philippines. He
warmly defended Gen Chaffee for his
conduct of military affairs in the ISL
ands and paid a brilliant tribute to
his heroism and patriotism. AS he
concluded his defense of the American
army and the American administra.
ton drew cordial applause from the
galleries.
