the senate in thisycase, as in all 9TH
ers, will stand for the safety OF 1.-The

ness interests, peace and prosperity? :?
The fathers created this body so that,
| it can prevent ihprudent action. Tt
has but,seldop permitted the excite,
ment. of the l,6ur, the desires Of ambi-
tious ment to put In jeopardy the honor
of the government or it's commercial

Mr. Foraker in reply arraigned Mr..
Hoar's posi- tion, saying he knew there
would be trouble when the Democrats
agreed to vote as unit on every mat
ter except when that vote interfered
with individual conscience.
Something the Republican do not
known, said Mr.. Tillman.
Continuing, Mr.. Foraker said that
he did not know who would be the
Democratic exception, but suspected
since Mr.. Tillman Thursday displayed
his rare knowledge of all matters
scriptura that he would be the one.
Mr.. Foraker said he had felt no
great surprise when the attack upon
the president had been made on the
Democratic side Of the chamber, but
that he had been shocked when. the
senator from Massachusetts made the
character Of speech he did Mr.. For
aker expressed the opinion the speech
should have been made in executive
session.
: ! g.
Mr.. Tillman gained the floor to ask
Senator Foraker If he had any knowl-
edge of the mobilizing Of that ], 900
soldiers to march upon Bogota and
whether Information of this character
did not come from the White House.
Mr.. Foraker said that nothing had
been given to him on that subject and
advised Mr.. Tillman il he wanted the
information from the White House to
apply there himself.
Mr.. Morgan inquired if Mr.. Foraker
held that the Colombian congress was
ever in any way committed to the
treaty.
''They simply rejected it, replied
Mr.. Foraker. No agent was sent to
the president of the United States and
no agent was sent to Panama. She
had a right If she saw fit to 60 into re-
beli0n. Weeks before she declared
her independence it became known
that she would take that step-not
officially, but to every man who stud
led that situation and knew what hui
man nature would do under the cir
cumstances.
The administration at Washington,
he said, was not unmindful OF the sit.
uation, "arid the president took the
steps Indicated by the telegram and
from which the senator from Massa
clusetts derives such conclusions. -
Mr.. IIoar strongly disclaimed hav.
ing drawn any such conclusions anc
Mr.. Foraker concluded by saying there
was no real ground for criticism of the
course of the administration.
Mr. Mitchell OF Oregon then spoke
