Hoar and Foraker Little Snappish
(By the Associated Press.)

Washington, Feb, 22.-The feature OF
today's session of thes Senate, next to the
last day for the consideration OF the
Panama Canal treaty, was characterized
by speech from Mr.. Hoar In explanation
of his former speech on the isthmian
canal situation. He complained of the
criticisms made of his utterances at that
time, saying that he had been misunder-
stood and misrepresented and contended
that his intention on that occasion had
been to secure full information concern
ing the Panama revolt and not to cast re-
Elections upon the President On the con-
trary he had the highest regard for that
official and intended to vote for the treaty
Mr. Foraker was mentioned among
others who had criticised the first speech
and after Mr.. Hoar had concluded the
Ohio Senator responded, contending that
he had not meant unjustly to reflect upon
Mr. Hoar, but at the same time attempt
ing to justify his remarks by quoting
from Mr. Hoars original speech Mr..
Hoar replied accusing Mr.. Foraker, NOT
only with having misrepresented him on
the first occasion. but with mlsrepresent-
ing him today The result was sharp
colloquy at short range. and when 1t
came to conclusion the two Senators
did not appear to have approached any
nearer to an understanding than at the
beginning
Mr.. Hoar accepted the Presidents dis
claimer of completely on the part of the
United States in the Panama revolt. He
said the independence of Panama Is an
accomplished fact. and all the Senate had
to do was to deal with the treaty on its
merits.
Repeating his intention Of supporting

the treaty Mr.. Hoar said he believed the
ratification would be ACCOMPLISHED with
out any faint of national dishonor, and
he experienced the satisfaction of feeling
that he had done something to put the
transaction on that level.
When the controversy between Messrs.
Hoar and Foraker had been concluded,
Mr.. Carmack took the floor. He said he
had no desire to participate in 1.-The
laundry work going on on the other side, -
but that he wanted to appeal to another
branch Of the canal question. His re-
marks constituted a severe arraignment
OF Minister Bunau-Varilla and included a
review Of his connection with the Panama
Company, based on official French docu-
ments which were quoted. His accusa-
tons was that BunauVarilla had been
associated with Baron De Reinach in his
dealings with the stockholders of the old
canal company. He charged that the pres
ent minister had taken advantage of the
situation to wreck the enterprise for the
purpose of enriching himself and he added
that "the irony of fate was Illustrated in
the circumstance that while De Reinach
had committed suicide Bunau-V arilla had
been sent as a minister to the United
States
Mr. Carmack declared that the Panama
Canal Company had no title to the canal
right of way. He said he had heard
that Attorney Cromwell was TO have
80, 600 600 for his part in the transaction.
Mr.. Cullom followed with a carefully
prepared address in support OF the treaty.
He quoted official papers to show that
neither the United States nor Columbia
could have been surprised at the seces-
sion of Panama and argued that the
American administration being thus warned
could not have done less than be pre-
pared for it. 1t had been definitely deter
mined that no official of the United
States had any part in the Isthmian revolt
Mr. Culberson called UP and withdrew
his resolution directing the Committee on
the Judiciary to investigate the constitu-
tional right of Panama to secede and
form a government. Before Withdrawing
the resolution, Mr.. Culberson briefly dis
cussed its purport saying that anyone who
justified Panama's secession must justify
the secession of the Southern States in
1861 The Senate adjourned until II
o'clock tomorrow.

CONSUMP TION.

are interesting, and of Value
to Others.

Whether real consumption can be cured,
or not, is an open question, or to guaran-
tee that any one medicine will positively
cure consumption would be absurd but
we know there is something about the
effect of Vinol when taken by persons who
either have, or think they have consump-
ton, or serious lung troubles, that is de-
cidedly beneficial.
While we do not guarantee that Vinol
Will always cure consumption we publish
herewith extracts from some of the let
tiers received on this subject, which prove
that while we may be conservative in our
claims, Vinol has certainly cured these
people, and as the letters are guaranteed
to be genuine and from reliable persons
we must accept the statements as abso-
lutely true:
Mrs. j. G. Brown. of Anderson, Ind.
writes: Our daughter Mary was in
consumption, and given up to die by our
family physician. She was very weak
and emaciated, but Vinol restored her to
health in marvellous manner, and she is
as well as ever she was. Words cannot
express our gratitude for this valuable cod
liver oil preparation
Mrs. n. B. Jenner, OF Lakewood, N Y,
writes: Il was in consumption, and no
one thought l could live. l weighed less
than 100 pounds, and my normal weight
IS us pounds. Vinol cured me- and it
seems almost a miracle
The Rev. Mr. Crosse, of st. Pauls
Church, ST. Joseph, Mo-, writes "a
young man in my congregation had hem
orrhages of the lungs which weakened
him so that he could not walk block.
recommended Vinol; he has taken four
bottles, and feels like a new man; he
eats well, sleeps well, and is getting
strong"
Joseph Denis, of Winslow, Me-, writes:
My son was given up by two doctors
to die with consumption. He was human
skeleton. and could not raise himself in
bed. Vinol has cured him so that he is
healthy, fat and as well as any of his
play-felows.
We have lots of such letters, and thew
all contain just such strong. authentic
statements and why should they NOT no

We can only say that any one who is
DESTROYS of giving Vinol a trial for anv

risk; we will pay for all the vinol thev

shows that we have great faith in what
