No man I'm recent years has re
ceivcd the ovation that was given
Senator Foraker yesterday when he
concluded his speech in defense of
the Negro soldiers discharged without
honor by the President because of
their supposed connection with the
Brownsville shooting affair.
The galleries were crowded 20 o
verfiowing aud it was almost impos-
sible 10 work ones way through the
corridors. so dense was the mass of
belated would-be spectators waiting
for an opportunity that never came
10 get within sight and hearing or
the speaker.
Never. within the history Of the
Senate. have there been so many col
ored persons within the Senate gal
leries. They came early. and as soon
as the doors were opened pre-empted
every seat I'm the mems and the re-
served galleries. Only in the diplo-
matte and the Senator's family gal
leries were their faces absent. Sen
geaat-at-Arms Ransdell estimated
that fully 5000 persons were turned
away.
In the Senator's gallery were the
wives OF many statesmen, conspic-
uous among them Mrs. Foraker and
her daughter, Mrs. Wainwright of
Philadelphia, and Mrs. Fairbanks,
wife of the Vice President Half 4.
dozen seats in the Presidents pew
were filled.
EVERY AVAILABLE SEAT TAKEN.
Eery available seat on the floor
was taken, and many OF the mem
bers of the House came over to listen
TO the speech. Speaker Cannon re-
mained an hour; Representative
Longworth stayed throughout almost
the entire speech, and Chairman Par.
sons, OF the New York County Re-
publican Committee, was an interest
ed listener, William r. Chandler
who, when he retired from the Sen
ate six or seven years ago, after
eighteen years of service, declared
he would never again enter the cham
ber, broke his rule and went up to
sit among his former colleagues and
listen to the Ohio Senator.
DR.. Harvey, Mr.. Foraker's physi-
clan went to hear the Senator and
room was made for the physician in
one Of the galleries. This gave rise
TO a report that the Senator was I'll
and that the physician was present
TO administer TO him in case of need
The fact of the matter was, howev-
er, that DR.. Harvey had never heard
his patient speak. and shared the
general interest in the presentation
of the Brownsville case which he
was TO make.
The Senator began his remarks
by saying there was evidently a mis-
apprehension concerning his speech
and read from a newspaper clipping
TO the effect that he was to deliver
a three days speech in denunciation
of the President and the Secretary oi
War. He laughingly disavowed his
intention to do either Of the things
charged against him.

FORAKER ATTACKS WARNER
BILL.

Mr.. Foraker devoted iderabls
time TO a comparison Of bills Dend-
ing before the Senate. providing for
the enlistment Of the soldiers. one
introduced by Senator Warner, of Mis-
souri,, giving the President authority
TO re-enlist them if he should be sat
istied that they did not participate in
the ARRAY, and that by Mr.. Foraker
making re-enlistment mandatory up
on the soldier taking an oath that ne
did not participate, or know ANYTHING
of the guilty parties concerned in II.
Mr.. Foraker's bill also annuls the re-
cord OF discharge without honor. a
provision not included in the Warner
bill, and annuls the Presidents order
debarring the men from enlistment
In the navy, and restores the non
commissioned officers to the rank
they formerly had.
Referring to the Warner bill, Mr..
Foraker said:
But the bill offered by the Sena-
tor from Missouri is most extraordi-
nary in another respect. I venture
to assert that IL is without a prec.
dent in all the history OF the liberty
loving, English-speaking nations OF
the earth.
1T requires two things of these
men in violation of the Fundamental
spirit Of our institutions and which
in my opinion, IL would be a dis
grace to the Congress of the United
States to exact.
First, that men accused of crime
shall prove their innocence; and, Sc
cond, that they shall prove their in
nocence TO the satisfaction OF a Judge
who has already prejudiced their
case, not once, or twice, or three
times, and casually, but repeatedly
and officially, and each time with a
manifestation of the most unquali-
fed conviction that not only some
or the men discharged did the shoot
ing, but that many, If not all of them
had knowledge of the perpetrators
which, through a conspiracy of ST.
lence, they have refused to divulge..
CRITICISES THE PRESIDENT.
After quoting from the Presidents
message to Congress on his action I'm
the Brownsville affair, the Senator
continued:
While these assertions. repeated
over and over again in the most ex-
traVagant language, show after all,
as Gen. Darlington reported, that
there was no evidence to establish a
conspiracy OF silence, and that the
charges and assertions that there was
such a conspiracy rested only on de-
ductions that there must have been
such a conspiracy because nobody
would tell OF that about which al,
alleged they had no knowledge, yet
that very fact but emphasizes the
Presidents unfit state of mind TO
act judicially in passing upon the
applications of these men to re-enlist

to possess in a superlatiHe &C.

oiary efforts. So it Is that we are not
surprised to find him in the field with
n brand new drama entitled The I'm
written Law which will be produced
in the English provinces and possibly
iii London eurly next year. The play
develops the problem of how far a hus-
band Is justified in killing man who
has designs upon the happiness Of his
home. The wife Is entirely blameless
in the matter and the husbands action
Is in the nature of Il prevention rather
than il cure or a revenge.
Instances of appeal to the unwritten
law have not yet made their appear

Strenuous efforts are again being
made to provide Berlin with new
royal opera house, the old one being
rdiculously Inadequate to the demands
made in our times on first class 1nsti-
tuition. The site is already provided;
the new house will take the place of
Kroll's theater, The cost of building is
estimated at 10 1000, 600 marks. 1t is con-
sdered certain that the Prussian par
lament will grant 100000 marks to-
