PANAMA DEBATE
 WARM IN SENATE
(contlnued from First Pase)

(Continued from First Page( President Roosevelt in the present in- stance and commented the former at the expense of the latter. In that case, he said, there was no recognition until Mexico had abandoned the struggle. As for himself, when his conduct lould be questioned, he would point to Andrew Jackson and not to Theodore Roose- welt as his guide, and he had no doubt of the result. The President, he said, had made it plain that he never had in- tended to execute the Nicaragua provis- ions of the Spooner act.
 Never for one moment,' he said, "did he consider any plan that had in it so little of the strenuous and the sensa- tional as the execution of the law. If, intsead of peerins into the future, as MT. Loomis tells us he did, he had peered into the law. he would have saved the country much trouble"
 MT. Carmack contended that President Roosevelt had not contented himself with recognition of Panama, but had inter vened.
 His acts were not simply offensive, not simply a cause for war but they were war" he added. "As a matter of fact there never was any insurrection on the isthmus," said MT. Carmack.
 ''They speak of the rising" he said, ''as the act of one man. Very true And that one man was the President of the United States"
 Criticised Him Sharply.
 Discussing the act of Colonel Black, U. s. A, in raising the first flag in the Panama republic. the senator criticised him sharply.
 We know" he said, what would hap raata at .aff rala nff Df the United States should be found plot ting with the enemies of q country with which we were at peace. I do not believe that Colonel Black would have engaged In this plot if he had not believed that he was doing the will of the administration. Mir. Carmack said that the President had denied that he had encouraged the Panama insurrection, but no greater en- coura cement could be shown than by giving MT. Bunau-varilla and few other choice spirits a hint that if revolution was started it would receive the support of the United States.
 ''Who could not get up a South Amer ican revolution with the aid of the Unit ed States military forces and ten million dollars?' he demanded.
 Quoting from a recent speech by MT Loomis, assistant secretary of state in which the latter said 1t had been evil
 
 no intention of ratifying the Hay-Herran treaty, Mir Carmack said: President Violating Laws.
 "If that is true, then the President has been proceeding contrary to the laws of his country in not going to the Nica- raguan route.'
 Mir. Carmack declared that a mob has as much right to hang it's victims as the President to secure what he wants by A. disregard of the law. President Roosevelt he said. loses the power of reasoning and his moral sense when he becomes involved in action. and acclaimed:
 Into what difficulties may we not be lead by this nead-strong man?"
 He did not agree that the President would have hesitated if Colombia had been a stronger nation. On the contrary the President would have welcomed such an opportunity, he said. '.He makes hs- tory SIS he would order melodrama,

spondent, to get the pulse of democrats as to their choice Of candidates and sen timent.
 MT. Belmont, like many of the other New York millionaires who, previous to 1896 supported the democratic ticket is again anxious that the democrats adopt a conserN alive platform and nominate safe man for the presidency. The Bel nonts have always been democrats. The father of the Belmont boys, August Bel mont, was the financial mainstay of the democratic party in the darkest days of the party's history.
 Belmont and Barnum were close friends of Samuel J. Tilden. and to their money and sagacity the great victory of I6 was in no small degree due notwithstanding the disaster that befell the party by the count-out.
 And so it was throughout the meeting of the democrats here yesterday The New Workers mingled with the politicians from the south and west, ana all united for the election of democratic ticket.
 Few of the national committeeman re- main in Washington tonight. The only echo of the meeting yesterday was the work of the sub committee appointed by Chairman Jones to consider the District of Columbia vacant committeemanship
