Amendment Carried as
Rider to the Imni-
grafton Bill.
MEASURE PASSES THE HOUSE
Proposition to Bar Intoxicants at Ellis
Island Provokes Unique Discussion
Inconsistency of Practice in Senate
and House Restaurants.

Added to the immigration bill which
passed the House yesterday is an
amendment which prohibits the sale of
liquor at the Capitol. The proposition
came up somewhat Unexpectedly, but
was carried by the decisive vote OF 1O3
to 10.
| At present liquor is sold In both the
Senate and House restaurants, and many
of the members who voted for the
amendment are patrons.
The matter was precipitated by an
amendment offered by Mr.. Bowersock
rep, Kan.). to prohibit the sale OF
liquor on Ellis Island. Mr.. Shattuc
(Rep., Ohio and Mr.. Cochran Dem.
MOI charged that it was inconsistent to
prohibit the sale OF liquor to immi-
grants on Ellis Island and permit its
sale to members OF Congress in the
United States Capitol.
Capitol Amendment Offered.
Thereupon Mr.. Lands tRep.. Ind) Of
fered an amendment to prohibit the sale
OF liquor at the Capitol. 1t caught Mr..
oudttut. tut CudiiIIdH VI lue tOullulttte
On immigration. somewhat unawares.
Immediately Mr.. Wheeler Dem. Ky.)
offered an amendment to the amend
ment, directing the collectors of internal
revenue to refuse to issue license to
persons in counties where local option
is in force. This, he declared. would
prevent the existence of blind tigers"
Mr.. Shattuc raised a point Of order
against the Wheeler amendment. declar-
ing that it was not germane to the bill,
end also to the Lands amendment. The
Chairman ruled that the point OF order
was well taken as regards the Wheeler
amendment. but that it came too late
TO affect the Landis amendment.
Accordingly the provision to forbid
the sale Of liquor at the Capitol was
carried amid considerable applause.
Under Five Minute Rule.
The immigration bill was taken up
under the fve-minute rule. directly aft
er the reading of the Journal. and
progressed somewhat slowly owing to
discussion over minor amendments. Con-
siderable debate was had on the amend
ment offered by Representative Clark
tDem., Mol. requiring the examina-
tion of immigrants to be made at tho
place OF embarkation.
There. II conducted under the SUPER
vision of the United States consul, Mr..
Clark said. the consul would have ac-
cess to the records OF the courts to
ascertain whether or not an immigrant
was criminal
Mr.. Bartholdt Dem, MOI favored
this amendment.
Mr.. Robinson (Dem.. Ind) said that
IL the examinations were conducted in
this country it would throw the re-
sponsioility upon the steamship COM
panies. which would have 10 return
those to whom landing was refused.
and make them careful as TO the class
Of people they brought over.
Mr.. Underwood tDem., Ala.) argued
that United States consul could not
issue a certificate to :. yoLng man
who desired to immigrate in order To
escape military duty, in Gernsn ny, for
instance. becauge il he did be wouli
make himself persona non grata with
the German Emperor.
The amendncLt was lost.

Provision Stricken Out.

This provision of the bill was stricken
out: ANY alien who becomes a public

to his landing shall be deported 20 the

Capt. Mcdonald RefuteS
Charges Made by For
mer Witness.
OBJECTS TO BEING CALLED THIEF
Senator Rawlins Retorts Warmly to
Mr.. Dietrich's Remarks Regarding
Designing Politicians" - Protests
Against "Gross and Malignant Insult"

Capt. Fred Mcdonald. formerly OF
Company NJ. Twenty-siXth Infantry, ap-
peared before the Senate Committee on
the Philippines again yesterday. and. in
further refutation of the charges made
against him by Corporal Richard
documents from the War Department in
support Of his statements. one of these
documents showed that o'Brien was not
at the town of Igbarras at the time he
testified he was there and was told OF
the outrage of a native woman by Cap
tain Mcdonald and the other officers of
ris company.
The Washington times., 1902-05-28
Showed 0'Brien Lied.


This shows that O'Brien lied abso-
lutely in HIS testimony before this com
mittee." commented The witness
Other papers produced cleared the
captain of o'Brien's charges that he had
misappropriated the company's funds.
and disproved his statements that hc
and the men with him had been unable
to get vegetables and dellcacics. He
announced that he objected to being
called thief by a man like o'Brien.
MIR. Rawlins Dem. UtahD remarked
here that the testimony of O'Brien. in
his estimation. was not OF such a char
acter as to make it incumbent upon
anyone to defend his reputation.
a heated discussion was caused at
this point by statement of Mr.. Die
trich.
Mr.. Dietrich said that If O'Brien's $
charges against American officers had
been smothered, as suggested by the
Democrats. enough of the allegations
would. however. have leaked out to have
formed the basis of charges by design
ing politicians that the majority were
unwilling TO investigate the allegations.
Mr.. Rawlins Speaks Plainly.
Mr.. Rawlins resented this with some
warmth. saying that he desired to en-
ter a protest against being made 4 sub
iect of gross and malignant insult"
He said he did not intend to submit
to it.
Il don't want any more insinuations
such as these that have emanated from
the lips of the gentleman just now. We
might as well understand that now"
concluded Mr.. Rawlins.
Mr.. Dietrich replied by saving that
when he used the words designing per
sons he had not intended to apply them
to high minded Senator'S" and with
that explanation the whole incident was
ordered to be stricken from the record.
After Il long examination on the ques-
ton of water-cure torture, Senator Gull
berson summed up by asking the wit

San Francisco opposing any legislation
for the Philippines until they could
learn more OF the real condition Of af-
fairs in the islands and the Status of the
natives.
United States Began War.
The Senator from Colorado again made
the charge that the United States began
war against the Filipinos at Manila, and
for the express purpose of forcing a
ratification of the Paris treaty, and Mr..
Foraker and Mr.. spooner energetically
ccmbated his assertion in running de-
bate of half an hour.
In the course of his speech. Mr.. Pat
terson quoted approyingly from speech
made in the Senate by Mr.. Spooner, and
said it reminded him OF having once
heard 4 charming songstress. but the
charm OF her song was lost when he
opened his eyes and saw that the artist
was colored and homely; and so if he
had closed his eyes when the Senator
from Wisconsin made that speech he
might have imagined that the most ar
dent opponent OF territorial expansion
was engaged in pleading the cause of
the down-trodden Filipino.
Mr.. Spooner remarked facetiously that
he was still OF the same color, and of
the same homeliness. as he was when he
made the speech in question: but he had
never found it necessary 10 withdraw
one word OF what he had then said.
He had not departed from It, while the
Senator from Colorado had gone far, far
afeld from his editorials.
Charged With Inconsistency.
Mr.. Patterson-The difference between
the Senator rom Wisconsin and myself
is that when ! found ! was in error /
admitted it. but the Senator from Wis
ccnsin, finding himself in error. does
not admit it. but is struggling against
his own convictions.
May / ask when the new light fell
upon the Senator?' asked Mr.. spooner,
1T was not the same light that fell
upon Governor Taft smilingly replied
Mr.. Patterson.
No" retorted Mr.. spooner. But may
ii not have been the light that fell upon
I he non President, MIR. BTyan?"
Mr. Patterson's charge upon the Sem
ato- from Wisconsin was so aggres-
siye that he drew from Mr.. Spooner the
declaration that he CSpooner) was not
without criticism Of the bill. upon which
he would speak in due time. He denied.

Mr.. Patterson continued his speech
