CHAFfEE CRITICISED.
Senator Rawlins Denounced the
General for His Orders.
The PHILIPPINE BILL UNDER DEBATE


Washington, April 25-Just be
fore the senate adjourned yesterday
Senator Rawlins, of Utah, concluded
his speech in opposition to the Phil
ipplne government bill. As ON pre-
vious days, he devoted much of his
time to a consideration of the test
mony taken before the Philippine
committee. He analysed the testi
mony in connection with orders is
sued by the war department and by
general officers in the Philippines
lie was particularly severe in his
denunciation Of Gen. Chaffee for the
orders he had issued in carrying out
the policy of the government. He
declared in conclusion that the
United States would reap a whirl-
wind of misfortunes and disaster as
a result of its policy in the Philip
pine islands.
The senate passed several unob-
jected measures of minor Importance
and a large number of private pen
sion bills.
A bill appropriating $l,oOO,OOO for
a hall of records" in this city and
the bill authorizing an increase of
pension in case of total deafness
were passed.
The house yesterday sent the oleo-
margarine bill to conference after
agreeing to the senate amendments
with some notifications suggested
by the agricultural committee. The
opponents of the measure offered a
number of amendments, the principal
one of which was designed to place
renovated butter on the same foot
ing with oleomargarine, but they
were overwhelmingly voted down.
The house then went into commit
tee OF the whole and took up the
agricultural appropriation bill. 1t
was agreed that there should be
three hours general debate upon
each side. Mr.. Wadsworth, of New
York, in charge of the bill, made
brief preliminary statement of the
contents of the measure, which he
explained carried $5,l5S,5T0, an in
crease of S576,150 over the current
law. The largest increases were
those for the weather bureau and the
bureau of plant industry, each about
100000.
Mr.. Fox, Of Mississippi, awaiting
himself of the latitude allowed in |
general debate, discussed the ques-
ion of restricted suffrage in the
south, with especial reference to the
of his own state, which
le defended. He argued that Missis-
ippi had done the wise and patriotic
hing and deserved the commenda.
ion OF the country. If she had in
urred the penalty of reduced repre-
entation in congress, he said, Mis-
issippi would "take her medicine"
efore she would surrender her civ
ization.
At the conclusion of Mr.. Fox's re.
larks the house, at sos p. M, ad.
burned.
