minute while intense silence reigned In
the chamber and In the gallery, and then
said:

or I'VE senators be appointed to send for
persons and papers and to go thoroughly
| into that affair"
Senator Hale suggested that the motion
was not in proper form. He said that the
senator should reduce 1t to writing and
offer 1t in the morning. For one, Senator
Hale said. he would not oppose The reso-
luton.
Senator Tillman said that he would do so,
ana viii present the resolution tomorrow In
parliamentary form.
Il am deeply interested" declared Sena-
tor Tillman. mot as an enemy of the Presi-
dent of the United States. but as a senator
and as q man"
Senator Hopkins thought that the resolu-
tor was entirely out of harmony with the
ethics of the Senate. He declared that the
Senate had no more right to investigate
that incident than the President would have
to investigate the private affairs of the sem
ator from South Carolina. He was astound-
ed that the Senate should enter upon such
an inYest igation.
Senator Daniel Of Virginia in a very tenn
perate address. deprecated the action Of
Senator Tillman in bringing the case into
the Senate. and suggested that he should
consult his colleagues and deliberate a lit
tie before offering the resolution.
Senator Daniel said he would go as far as
any one to reprobate the treatment of the
lady. but the Senate was not the tribune
to take action on the ex-parte statements
of any one.
Senator T'llman said that he appreciated
the admonishing from such high quarters.
and that he would not in his brusque,
straightforward way willingly do anything
to reflect on the dignity of the Senate. but
he insisted that those officers are paid out
of the public treasury. What he wanted
TO know was what was going to be done
about the case. He was absolutely con-
vnced that a false narration of the incl
dent had been given out from the White
House.
Mr.. Tillman finished his remarks a few
minutes before 3 O'Clock with much feeling.
He expressed his profound respect for wom-
en-. and painted picture of his mother
and spoke of his wife as being inspirations
to his life Closing he said:
Il have respected and loved women ever
since | knew my mother and have known
my own wife. and when l see man who
ought to be gentleman although IN high
official position. ignore his plain duty to
seek out the truth and make due apology
and right the wrong far as he could, and

Mr.. Hale Defends the Senate.

Mr.. Hale interrupted TO say at consider
able length that he was sorry the senator
from South Carolina had seen fit to make
this speech, and. so far as the accusation
that the Senate Is abandoning its powers
at the behest of the President was concern
ed, It is absolutely without truth. He said
that the Senate insists upon its preroga-
tives. and that there were many senators on
the floor who did not hesitate 10 tell the
President when they believed he was wrong
and the President listened to them even IL
he did not always follow their advice He
said that this arraignment by MIR. Tillman
surprised him, because he had grown in his
estimation during recent years.
Mr.. Tfllman then began the reading of
statements of the White House incident by
eye-witneSses. He said that there were at
least four witnesses, men Of high repute,
and he would produce their testimony when
the Senate investigated the case.

Senator Tillman then read the testi-
mony of an eyewitness of the Morris in
cident. 1t was statement similar to the
