WARFARE OF WORDS
Senate INDUCES In Another
Spirited Debate.
BEYERIDGE AND TILLMlB CLASH.
Carmack of Tennessee Makes His
Maiden speech-PhiIippine Tariff
Bill and judicial salary Rails
ing Under Discussion.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 4. = Another
spirited debate, with the Philippine
tariff bill as the text, was precipitated
in the senate yesterday as the result Of
some statements made by Mr.. Car
mack Dem, Tenn in the course of an
extended speech on the general Philip
pine question. 1t was the Tennessee
senator's first speech in the senate,
and he was given notably good atten-
ton on both sides Of the chamber. He
spoke without manuscript with ear
nestness, force and eloquence.
At the conclusion of his address,
which had been listened to by many of
his former colleagues in the house of
representatives, Mr. Beverage qnd.)
challenged some Of his statements.
The debate which ensued was very
lively for a few minutes, taking on
political phase which proved particu-
larry interesting to the auditors, who
crowded the floor as well as the gal
leries. Mr.. Beveridge and Mr.. Tillman
Is. O. became involved in a heated col
loquy in which the exchanges were as
hot as both senators well could make
them.
Prior to the taking up of the Philip
pine bin the measure providing for an
increase in the salaries of United
States Judges was under discussion for
an hour.
The house devoted the day to general
debate upon the oleomargarine bill.
The opponents Of the measure attempt
ed to Glibuster against it at the open
ing Of the session, but were beaten by
mere than a twO-thirds vote.
Both majority and minority reports
were filed on the war revenue repeal
bill. The majority report says the prob
ability Of early withdrawal Of troops
from Cuba and the reduction of the
force in the Philippines viii make
further reductions possible and also re-
views the condition Of the treasury.
The minority report approves the pro-
posed reductions, but asserts they
should have been made long ago. 1t
also advocates a general revision of
tariff taxation with the retention Of
taxes on accumulated wealth. There
is a general denunciation Of the Ding
ley law as the mother Of trusts and the
report says that it enables manufac-
turers TO charge far greater prices TO
home consumers than are received
abroad for the same goods, which is
as plain robbery"

jail RetaIken and Are Dead.

BUTLER, Pa, Feb. 3.-The terrible
fate Of the Biddles is still the sole top
&c Of conversation here. All day yeSter-
day a curious throng of people, defy
ing the storm, hung about the Jail en-

| A great deal of sympathy for the boys
was expressed on all sides. The jail
doors were closed all day, and no one
got in but the doctors who attended
the autopsy and the coroner's jury,
which organized at . o'clock IN the
morning. Even the newspaper report
ers were excluded from the inquest,
which was held in the Jail. and moth
ing concerning their deliberations
could be learned until late in the after
noon.
The verdict of the jury is that Ed
Blddle came to his death by revolver
shot fred from a 30 caliber revolver
by himself and that Jack Biddle met
his death from a gunshot wound in
fiicted by the officers in discharge OF
their lawful duty.
The evidence secured by the autopsy
bears out the statements that the Bid
dies intended to kill themselves rather
than be taken alive and that Ed sue
ceeded in his attempt, while Jack fail
ed. though his life was forfeited.
The bodies were sent to Pittsburg
this morning.
