IN THE SENATE.
Rawlns Criticizes Course of the Army
in the Philippines.

Washington, April 24.-Just before
the Senate adjourned, today, Rawlins.
Utah, concluded his speech in opposi-
ton to the Philippine government. AS
on previous days, he devoted much of
his time to a consideration of the tes-
timony taken before the Philippine
committee. He analysed the testimony
in connection with orders issue by the
war department and by general officers
in the Philippines. He was particularly
severe in his denunciation of Gen.
Chaffee for the orders he had issued in
carrying out the policy Of the govern
ment. He declared in conclusion that
the United States would reap a whirl-
wind of misfortune and disaster as a
result of it's policy in the Philippine
islands.
The Senate passed several unobjected
measures of minor importance and a
large number of private pension bills
During the consideration of routine
business in the Senate, bill was re-
ported from the judiciary committee
and passed providing that certain

Washington, September 10, 1902.
"My Dear Gen. Sickles:

you at Gettysburg on the interesting

promise made you when last we were
together. ! am quite disabled from a

press my sincere regrets to the noble
Army of the Potomac, and to ACCEPT
them, especially, for yourself.
"On that field you made your mark
that will place you prominently before
the world as one of the leading figures
of the most important battle Of the civil
war. AS a Northern veteran once re
marked to me: Gen. Sickles can well
afford to leave leg on that field"
II believe that it is now conceded
that the advanced position at the Peach
Orchard, taken by your corps and under
your orders saved that battlefield of the
Union cause. 1t was the sorest and
saddest reflection of my life for many
years, but to-day can say, with sin
cerest emotion, that it was and is the
best that could have come to us all,
North and South and l hope that the
nation, reunited, may always enjoy the

Abuse Of s.. Vincent Relief.
Secretary Chamberlain Directs In
vestigation Of Recent Charges.

Widespread dissatisfaction prevails at
St. Vincent in connection with the relief
work of this island. A portion of the
food, clothing and other supplies contri.
buted by the U. S. government for
the assistance Of sufferers from the
eruptlons has been sold under its value
by the local government to merchants
abroad. The distribution of rations has
been stopped and state of semi.star-
vation prevails among some of the suf-
ferers.
An inadequate pittance of 25 cents
weekly per adult is given to some of
the people and some huts have been
erected for the homeless, but they only
eight feet by eight.
Owing to The destruction of many of
the estates majority of the 1aborers
are out of emp oyment, and the govern
ment officers have been dilatory in al
lotting lands for them to cultivate.
The better class of sufferers, whose
properties have been devastated are
reduced to state of poverty and have
not yet been relieved They are expe-
rlenclng great privation, while over
$4,000 of the relief fund is still at the
disposal of the government.
Representations of the maladminis-
tration of the relief fundsr etc., have
been made to the colonial secretary, Mr..
Chamberlan, who has commissioned
A. N. Asbnore, the government secre-
tary at Denerara, TO proceed 10 St.
Vincent, in connection with the relief
work, early in October. 1t is rumored
that another commissioner is coming
from England on the same GRAND.
