Washington, Jan. 2S.-The time OF
the senate was devoted to debate
rather than set speeches on the
attitude of the United States towards
the Panama resolution. There was a
variation, however, in that the discus
the president to withhold information
called for by the senate. The i'm
mediate foundation for the con
troversy was the democratic caucus
resolution calling on the president to
state whether he has yet supplied all
papers in the executive chamber bear
ing upon the Panama affair. The de-
batewas opened by Senator Culbertson
and participated in by Senators Cor,
man and Bacon on the democratic
side, and by Senators Cullom, SpOoner
and Lodge on the republican. The
democratic contended for the right OF
the senate to demand information in
possession of the executive depart,
ment bearing on treaties before the
senate, while the republican speakers
spoke in defense of the discretion of
the president to withhold information.
The house for an hour was enter
tanned by a speech by Mr.. Bede, repub-
lican member from Minnesota, who
made his maiden effort and won his
spurs. His remarks were replete with
wit and humor as we'll as serious
Thought Now and then, for the pur.
pose of illustration he would tell a
story which recital greatly amused
his auditors. He received the closest
attention of republicans and demo.
Gratis alike and drew laughter and APP
plause first from one side and then
from the other of the house and at
times both sides of the chamber Joined
in vigorous applause.
Representative Often of Wisconsin
introduced a resolution extending the
thanks of congress to the people of
Wisconsin FOR the statue of Marquette
which occupies place in statuary
hall in the capitol at Washington
This Is the statue that oCcasioned so
much discussion a few days ago. Its
acceptance was opposed by the anti
Catholic organizations. Representa-,
tive Loudenslager of New York in
roduced a bill providing for a service
pension of IS per month to all
veterans of the civil war who served
80 days, $40 to those who served .
years and $l2 to those who are over
62 years of age who served three
years or more, $40 to widows OF
soldiers and sailors and $12 to wild.
ows of soldiers who would receive
that amount under the bill Rep.
resentaive McCleary of Minnesota in.
trodnced bill appropriating 100000

Washington.

The house had under consideration at
the time the urgent deficiency bill.
Mr. Boutelle received the close atten-
tion of both sides OF the chamber
and when he spoke of the passing OF
the last trace of bitterness between
the north and south he was loudly APP
plauded on both sides. A resolution
calling on the postmaster general for
information relative TO the number Of
carriages maintained by the govern.
ment for the postoffce department,
was passed after a spirited debate.
Washington Jan. 27.-The senate
proceedings included a speech by
Senator Simmons of North Carolina,
in support of the canal treaty, and the
passage of a number of bills and reso-
lutions. Senator Simmons was the
first democratic senator to favor the
measure en- the floor He announced
his disapproval of the Intervention Of
the United States in the Panama re-
volt but said that as the revolution
was an accomplished fact and was
such before the treaty was made, he
could not accept the theory that the
treaty itself was invalid Among the.
bills passed was one granting to cit
liens of Porto Rico and the Philippines
the right to take advantage of the
naturalization laws of this country,
but Senator SpConer moved to re-
consider the vote, thus leaving the
question undisposed of. A resolution
giving authority to the committee on
privileges and elections to proceed
with the investigation of the charges
against Senator Smoot was passed.
The general debate in the house on
the urgent deficiency till digressed to a
discussion Of political topics, the
race question and aerial navigation.
Mr. Burkett of Nebraska led with a
discussion of the political situation
from the republican viewpoint and
Mr. Cochran of Missouri spoke for the
democrats. Mr.. Hardwick, democrat
Of Georgia, made an extended address
on the race problem. The discussion
Of flying machines was precipitated by
q l'lDol I VI lht app Npl ldtlOnS 'OlluIlt-
tee which recommended the tabling
Of the resolution calling on the secre-
tary for information as to the expend.
lures that had been made in connec-
