CONGRESSIONAL
WASHINGTON. D.

Panama was the subject of three speech
es in the Senate on Saturday and was the
only subject of general importance that
received any attention. Mr.. Spooner
completed his speech and Mr.. Morgan
and Mr. Money both made brief address
es. Mr.. Morgan spoke in opposition to
the treaty, and announced that he would
not be heard again on the treaty. Mr..
Money announced his intention to vote
for the ratification of the canal treaty,
but criticised the part taken by the
United States in connection with the Sc
cession of Panama During his speech,
Mr.. Spooner engaged in spirited COL
loquy with Mr.. Tillman. He defended
the President against the assumption
that his position on Panama involved the
recognition Of the right of the southern
States to secede.
In the House the naval appropriation
bill was under consideration, and the dis
cussion encompassed various topics.
After Mr.. Dayton (republican), of West
Virginia, of the committee on naval sf-
fairs, had pleaded for larger navy, Mr..
Hitchcock (democraD, of Nebraska, de-
clared that there was gross national e1-
travagance in the annual appropriation
bills. He asserted, too, that the large
items in the army and inavy supply bills
went to the trusts. He gave notice that
he would attempt on Monday to amend
the bill to provide for government
armor-plate factory.
Mr.. Hardwick (democratic), of Georgia
precipitated a discussion on the Philip
pine question by declaring that the re.
tention of the islands was responsible for
the demand for larger navy. He chal-
lenged the majority to make declaration
as to the future of the islands.
Mr.. Cooper (republican), of Wisconsin,
championed the governments position in
respect to the archipelago, which brought
forth rejoinder from Mr.. Cochran
(democrat), of Missouri.
Mr.. Williams, the minority leader,
sought to secure an adjournment until
Tuesday, that proper respect might be
paid to the memory of George Washing
ton on Monday. Mr.. Payne, of New
York, thought it would be more patriotic
to celebrate the anniversary by building
up the navy.
Mr.. Williams ironically suggested
that the galleries were empty, and again
appealed to Mr.. Payne, but the latter
adhered to his views.
"Then," said Mr.. Williams. II will
give notice that on Monday will move
that there be read in the House the Fare
we'll Address of George Washington, in
which he advised his country against be-
coming involved in entangling alliances.
Amid call, for the regular order Mr..
Williams concluded by saying he would
add to the motion that the House adj
journ that the remainder of the day
might be spent in silent contemplation of
his greatness.
The House adjourned With the naval
appropriation bill still pending.
