 He said he admired the generosity of the Secretary of the Treasury in flying 10 the relief of those people. Tt Is a mock patriotism" he said. There Is no sincere patriotism that violates law or the constitution. continued MT. Morgan
 Messrs Hale. Allison and Teller were appointed conferees on the general Ie- dcienoy bill
 MT. Morgan spoke for nearly two hours. He was followed by MT. McLaurin (Nfiss ) who was curious to know upon what MT. Bailey (rex.) based his position in favor Of the bill
 Tt was based" replied MT. Bailey, "on the vague and indefinite hope that the Democratic party would some time ob- tain control of this government again and only cn that"
 Mir. McLaurin said the Republican par ty had made a number of pledges and kept none of them. It was a party which stood for trusts. and was the party which had not allowed a vote on the Statehood or Littleheld antitrust bills.
 MT Bailey, after replying to some fur ther statements of MT. McLaurin, rave expression to his views on the subject of 1ibustering.
 T will say to the author of this bill," said he. facing MT. Aldrich, that he might as well withdraw it."
 He said there was no more chance for 1t to pass the Senate than for the State hood bill to rise out of it's shallow grave and become a law.

He pointed out that not to exceed eight hours debate had been given to this important measure. He said the men who had prevented a vote on the Statehood bill were responsible for the failure to have more time for this bill.
 MT. Tillman was recognized and con vulsed the Senate by saying, The Demo- cratic party has been buncoed by the most astute politician in the United States and that Is Matthew Stanley Quay"
 He said that all but two Democrats had been led by MT. Quay to support the Statehood bill, which he believed had been used for the purpose of preventing antitrust legislation.
 In reply. Mir Quay declared that he did not put the Statehood bill forward to keep back trust legislation.
 Then the Senator from Pennsylvania has been buncoed by the Senator from Rhode Island" remarked MT. Tillman, causing renewed laughter.
 ''The Senator from Rhode Island" re- marked MT. Quay. has been lurking very much in the background"
 MT. Patterson (Colo), a member of the Committee on Territories, vehemently excepted to the statement that the mem bers of the committee were dupes
 He declared there Lad teen no flibus- te 'lng.
 T shall not transgress the facts" re- piled MT. Aldrich, when l say that there is no intention of discussing this bill or its merits.''
 MT. Patterson denied this, and said that every speech made on the Democratic
