CONGRESSIONAL NEWS.

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
variation, however, in that the discus

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 MIR. Bede, repub-
lican member from Minnesota. who
made his maiden effort and won his
spurs. His remarks were replete with
wit and humor as well as serious
thought. Now and then. for the pur-
pose Of illustration he would tell a

his auditors. He received the Cl0sest
