' his (Baileys) good faith.
 He does not say that I was playing a game" he went on. but that others were. I will say that the game was played to catch others, and very sue cessfully" Further construing the memorandum. he called attention to the fact that the effort was to beat the president.
 With that" he added. 'I ought to have sympathy, but at the time I did not" He then called attention to the fact that upon the presidents authority MT. Chandler's veracity had been cllal- lenged in the senate by MT. Lodge. anu asked: "In view of that fact, does IL lie in the mouth of those people to as sail me with a statement like that from a man whom they have de- nounced as a false witness?"
 Continuing, he said: '"rhe president did not consider this memorandum an impeachment of my good faith. The proof of this is that, with the memor- andum before him, within three days he asked me to confer with his attor- ney general on this vital question. It is inconceiyable that the president, with a suspicion of my integrity in his mind, would permit his attorney gen eral to transmit to me an amendment intended to be incorporated in this great measure. I have no words to ex- press my opinion of those who would thus treat those whom they suspect Of treachery, and only traitors would do it'
 Senator Bailey then read briefly from the reply of the Chicago Tribune's $ correspondent to his speech of denun- citation made on yesterday. and contin- uing, said My statement does noS seem to have disturbed the correspon- dent of that paper, because he says he was overlooked in my attack on the president. Perhaps he regards it as being overlooked to be called an un- qualified malicious liar. He says he had not the Chandler memorandum be- fore him, but he attempts to quote from it. Now. where did he see it? I did not show it to him. Ex-S Senate . Chandler did not show it to him. It is addressed to MT. Loeb. the presi- dents secretary. l will leave it to the country and the senate to say who furnished him his information con- corning it
 The Texas senator spoke of his own faults. admitting that he has at times justly been called arbitrary, dictatorial, incorporate in speech, and rash. but he declared that he had never intention ally done man an injury, and that he had never done a wrong without right ing it when the fault was called to his notice. He said that no man ever be- fore had imputed to him lack of can
 dor; no man had ever charged him
 with double dealing and could not now
 do so and escape his denunciation. 2 Across the brow of such a man." he
 said. he would put the brand of liar.
 so that all men may know him and
 shun him."
 No one else spoke on the subject.
 During the entire recital there was in-
 tense interest in the senate and the galleries Consideration of the rate
 bill was then resumed.
 1 There was a prospect of concluding ] the reading until the section granting ! to the interstate commerce commission ! power to fix rates was reached and the i question of the unconstitutionality of 1 that provision was raised. A long de- bate ensued. The question was still under consideration when the day came to a close. The clause was : sharply attacked by Senators Teller
 Knox and FOraker.~ Mir. Knox ex-
 pressed doubt whether the bill would 1 be constitutional even with the discre- { tionary power omitted, and it was Mr. | FOraker's conviction that it would not. ? 1 There was again considerable debate 1 over the pipeline. rebate and anti i pass amendments. and also of the amendments prohibiting common car l riers from transporting articles pro- ] duced by themselves. An of these and other less important provisions were i modified.
