DOMINICAN
QUESTION
IN SENATE

Washington, Jan 31.--On motion OF
Mr.. GallInger, the senate today decided
TO reconsider the vote by which the bill
authorizing the placing OF models OF
naval vessels.i In state capitols was passed.
The motion was antagonized by Mr.
Hepburn.
Mr.. Tillman presented and asked i'm
mediate consideration for a resolution re-
questing the president to send TO the
senate all OF the official correspondence
with the American minister to San Do
mingo In 1904. Mr.. Allison objected TO
present consideration and IL went over
TO tomorrow.
Mr.. Patterson addressed the senate on
the Dominican and Moroccan questions
sustaining the administration in its pol
rs on both subjects. He took the po-
stion that basic problem of the Algericas
conference Is commercial in its nature
He said It was wise policy for this coun-
Try 10 stand for the open door in Mo-
rocco.
Heforesaw no complications with Euro
pean powers. on the Santo Domingo ques-
ton took the position that the situation
justified ali the steps taken by the presi-
dent who, he said. had not transcended
his authority in preserving the status quo
In the island republic.
He did not think that the proceeding in
this case might become harnful prece-
dent
Speaking OF the Dominican question he
said that Il involved the Monroe doctrine
and that there was no occasion for divl-
sion on party lines on that question. He
said he confessed to a very friendly feel
ing towards the president due 10 the
record he had made as a statesman and
citizen and as the first magistrate OF the
republic.
Much. however as he liked the presi-
dent, he felt impeffed 70 dtfrer with t1trrf
on many questions. Regardless. however,
OF these differences, he believed the presi-
dent to be honest and patriotic in all
things. Not only had the president done
much to annihilate sectional preJudices,
but he had done many things TO commend
him TO the Democrats,
"I doubt" he said. whether IL the
Democratic party had succeeded In elect, e;
ing its candidate in 1874 we would find
him striving as earnestly, as zealously
and as fearlessly in sustaining the rights
OF all the people against those who unite
to oppress the masses as is the present
chief executive"

IN Green Negro. Whose Skull He
Crushed. Has Lost the Use Of
His Voice.

Durham. n. c., May 26.-In the DO
lice court this morning Will Turner.
the negro who struck Frank Green
with a rock and came very near end
ing his life, was arraigned on the
charge of assault and battery with
deadly weapon and intent to commit
murder. Through his couns he en-
tered the plea of not guilty as charged,
but admitted that he struck Green
with the rock. The mayor then sent
him to court under bond of $500.
which he could not give ana was com
mitted to Jail.
The Green negro is still in Lincoln
hospital and is not yet out of danger.
The hurt he received has resulted in
destroying the speech of Green. at
least for the present. 1t may be a
permanent aff1ictiOn. When his skull
was crushed a portion of the fractured
bone was driven into the brain. The
physician is now under the impression
that this wound on the brain either
destroyed or injured that portion of
the brain that controls the faculty OF
lSpeech. Otherwise the patient seems
to be getting along nicely.

Williams Answers Lands.

Mr.. Williams. Of Mississippi. the
minority leader. in answer to Nh. Ian
dis. spoke of the conditions lcadtnE
up to the appearance OF General
CoXey'S army on the grass about the
Capitol. He stated that he had walk
ed through CoXeY'S army while 1t was
crcamped on the grass in front OF the
Senate entrance To the Capitol, and at
that time the Wilson-Gorman bill Nas
under discussion in tn" Senate. He
insisted that the government was still
operating under the Mckinley bill al
that time. and that revenues were be
ing colleccd under that Republican
measure.
Mr.. Williams said he was %encouraE-
ed i'm the fight the Democrats We're

leaders who were dashing to the re
lief of the protective tariff. He SAID

inferred from this that the attack
were having effect
1t was Mr.. Williams solemn belief
that the worst thing about the pro
.tcctive tariff was that it bribos ana
corrupts the friends of good govern

come into the Democratic party and
say to the friends of free trade. I'VE

protect YOU against hail" and 50 the
Democrats yielded and even he had
been indirectly approached along some
similar lines. but he had been thus
far able to say: Get thee behind me,
Satan.'
