SENATE ADOPTS THE CUBAN

AND PHILIPPINE AMENDMENTS.

Yote on the Spooner Declara-tion Was Forty-Fiv- e to

Twenty-Fiv- e.

HOAR WAS ONE OF NAYS.

Avalanche of Passionate Ora-

tory Preceded the-Fina- l

Action. -

VTashlnston, Feb. 27. The Senate y

adopted, by a vote of 43 to 23, the SpoonerPhilippine amendment to the army ap-propriations bill. It was a party vote, withthe exception of Senator Hoar (Itep.). whovoted with the Democrats, and McLaurlnnfu' who votcd with tne Republicans.The Cuban amendment was nlai adopted,tne vote being to 20.N'ot since the enactment of the resolu-

tions declaring a state of war to exist be-tween the United States and Spain ha3there been such an avalanche of passionateoratory as preceded the vote.

Throughout the session the army appro-priation bill was under discussion, the con-troverted questions being the SpoonerPhilippine amendment and the Piatt Cubanamendment. Both amendments wens de-nounced as vicious and pernicious leetela-tio- n,

subversive of the principles of thisGovernment and unparalleled In the historyof legislative enactments.

Senators Turner of Washington. Tillmanof South Carolina, Pettigrew of South Da-kota, Hoar of Massachusetts, Teller of Colo-rado, llallory of Florida, XJndsay of Ken-tucky. Culberson of Texas, Jones of Arkan-sas, Allen of Nebraska and others addressedthe Senate, all of them denouncing the pro-posed legislation.

TO K.VTliM) THC CONSTITUTION.Hr. Teller gave notice of an amendment

to the Philippine section, as follows:"That the Constitution of the United

States Is hereby extended over and declaredto be In force in the Philippine Islands sofar as the same or any provision thereofmay be applicable."

Ills purpose In offering the amendment, hersaid, was to ascertain whether those whosay the Constitution does not extend overthe Philippines are willing that it shouldextend over the Islands. He had no Ideathat the United States ever would surren-der the Philippines.

Mr. Pettigrew made a vigorous attackupon the Philippine amendment, particu-larly, declaring that It would encourago"Jobs" and "schemes" for the advancementof interests of trose "on the Inside." Heread letters and papers concerning the con-nection of LleuUnr.nt Colonel Heistand ofthe Adjutant General's department with aproposed company to control the hempproduct of the Islands. He read the chargesmade by Major Hawkes against Heistandand others in the War Department.

I'ETTIGUKW'S STnoXG LANGUAGE.Mr. Pettigrew contended that no legiti-

mate efforts were being mado to prepare thePhilippines for civil government, and hedeclared that the barbarities practiced Inthe Philippines by our forces had beenequaled only by those of the "civilizedarmies at Pekln."

"I hope." ho said, in conclusion, "thatthis country will see the Infamy of itscourse and turn its back upon a policywhich has already covered it with shameand disgrace--"

Mr. Turner of Washington, continuing hisspeech of last night, criticized the Spooneramendment as a departure from the Amer-ican system the first departure In the nis-to- ry

of the country."It is an extraordinary proposition." ha

declared. "To my mind. It is a monstrousproposition, which no party ought to coun-tenance for a moment. We may well

country,. If proposition.ofthe Senator from Wisconsin be adopted, forwe wlU not only have a Czar In the Philip-pine Islands, but a Crar In' the UnitedBtates, before it shall pass out of exist-ence."

NOTABLE SPEECH BY BACON.The most notable speech of the day was

delivered by Mr. Bacon of Georgia. He hadbeen thoroughly aroused by reports that theDemocratic members had been Induced byquestionable means to withdraw their oppo-sition to the proposed provision, and he pas-sionately branded as a libel upon honorablemen and Senators any and all such state-ments. Personally, he declared, he woulddefeat the amendments if he could, althoughbe realized the majority would have to ac-cept the responsibility for them. His ar-raignment of the administration for "co-ercing" Congress Into enacting such pro-visions in the closing hours ot the sessionwas sensationally tierce, and he declaredthat the only possible object ot such actionwas "tuat tne piunaerers ana vultures -

might have an opportunity to prey upon the I

prostrate iana oi tne jniipinos.Mr. Jones of Arkansas said he would vote

against the' Cuban amendment because Itseemed to reserve .the right of the UnitedStates to Intervene In Cuban affairs when-ever the Government does not suit tbe pur-pose of the United States. This was Indirect contradiction to our pledge to . thepeople of Cuba. He also criticised the rightclaimed to it for regulating the sanitationof Cuban cities. He was willing to saythat the amendment was far better than hehad expected, for he had for months beenapprehensive that the party in power woulddesire to maintain a real protectorate over-Cuba- .

.He contradicted all reports thatthere had been any agreement to vote uponthe army bill.

Mr. Hoar of Massachusetts expressed theconviction that a great change Is going onIn the minds of tbe American people and ofthe Republican party as to the policy to bepursued in the Philippines.

"You may." he declared, "talk aboutbenevolent assimilation and use' other hon-eyed phrases; but your act is pure, simple,undiluted, unchecked despotism."

MANY AMENDMENTS REJECTED.A vote then was taken jjpon the amend-

ment of Mr. Vest, providing that the actionor tnis uovernment or its oniciais in tnePhilippines shall bo subject to the lcHlsla- - I

tlon and laws of the United States so far 1

as they are applicable. The amendmentwnft n1ctMl VA in 45 -

SENATE ADOPTED

THE RESOLUTION.

Question of Limiting Cook Coun-

ty's Representation Passed bya Jare Majority.

APPORTIONMENT UNSETTLED.

Kast St. Louis Republicans At-

tempted to Secure Gates's In-

fluence forParty Ticket.

nKPum.icsPEciAuSprlnsiicld. 111., Feb. H. The Senate, by a

baro constitutional two-thir- vote, adopt-ed tho McKenzie renclutlon. submitting tothe people the question of limiting the rep-

resentation of Cook CCunty In the Legis-

lature to one-thir- d the. total membership.Tho Senators, excepting Senators Cole-

man, Davidson and Fnnderburk, who aroDemocrats, signed an agreement to trans-act no more business until March 12.

Apportionment matters arc In no bettershapo to-d- thtn they" were yesterday.

Senator Aldcn (Dcm,) Is making, substan-tial gains over Bollinger (Rep.), who Iscontesting Alden's seat in the Senate.

East St. Ixmls Repub.'lcans attempted tosecuro tho Influence of Governor Yates Inbehalf of a straight .party ticket In thespring election.

The apportionment bills were not Intro-duced In the House this mornln?. SpeakerSherman says thocongresplonal scheme forCook County "has net' yet been sent dowti,and that tho senatorial gerrymander willnot be Introduced until the other can ac-company it on the journey to the Gov-ernor.

Judge Shcrmarti insists there will be nomore changes la either congressional orsenatorial maps so far as tho country Isconcerned. There are five country andabout ten Chicago members In the Housewho aro kicking. The rural members areWheeler and Jones of Sangamon. Barnesof Lawrence and Ncese and Drew of Will.All of them will likely fall In line as soonas the Lorlmer element in Cook County issatisfied.

There Is a broad suspicion current thattho Lorlmer pets propose to defeat thoMcKenzie proposltlor limiting Cook Cou-nty's representation by blocking apportion-ment. The defeat of the McKenzie propo-sition mav solve the apportionment problem so- - far as Chicago nnd Its kickers aroconcerned.

St. Clair DUaatlxfieil.The St. Clair delegation is sore over tho

nddltlon of Monroe In the senatorial ap-portionment, but Mr. Trautmann tells mohe and Chamberlln wilt vote for the bill inIhe House.

The virtual adjournment of tho Senateover next week, and the fact.that GovernorYates nnd many prominent .Republicanswill go to "Washington Insure a dull weekIn the House. It is not, believed a. quorumwill be present on' any (toy during the week.

County Clerk George H. Thomaswho also owns the .Kast St. Louis Re-

publican, camo up last week with Mr. Sac-king and one or two other Republicans toenlist Governor yate"a.. lnfluertce. In, .ascheme Tor a. Straight Republican tlcKet inEast St. Louis at the April elections. Theyreturned, and, I am told, started the ttorythat they were suceessfnl: that the Gov-ernor would sot, .make raw appointmentsfrom St. Clah-Coun- ty until after the sprln?elections, and Inferential!- - -- gave out theimpression that those, wbo were opposed toa straight Republican ticket would' be dl- -cipnnca Dy tne state aaminisiration.

It seems that the East St. Lr.uls Rppuu-- j

llcnn organization Is opposed to putting uoa Kepubllcan tlcKet. its leaaers are nenrjUnder, Congressman Uodcnberg. Representative Trautman and Postmaster Fckele.Every time they show, their RepnblitanLeads the good Democrats crack them, withplenty of votes to spare. The only wnythey can pet their paws In tiro trough Is bycovering thclRepubllcanlwm. with a rloakcalled "Citizens' party," 'or "People's tick-et." nnd that's what they propose to dothis year.

This Is not what the honest GonrgoThomas wants. He seeks a fair and squarefight, nnd If the party is whipped and losesthe officers. It can still cling to traditionand lay claim to having, some decency andhonor.

East St. Xonls Concerned.MEir Trantmnin and Chamberlln called

on Governor Yates this' afternoon to knowwhether he was going to Insist on a straightRepublican ticket In East St. Louis as a

I'test of Republicanism. They intended takInRswRh them Charles W: Thomas of Belle--VllJle. brother of the Thomas wno is maKinirall the fuss, but Mr. Thomas waB compelledto leave town on a tram- tnat .accepteupasses and couldn't wait the' Governor'sconvenience.

Governor Yntes assured the statesmenfrom St, Clair that ho had. no Idea of In-

terfering in East St. Louis' politics, and.never said anything that would lead tosuch a statement. As a Republican and tholoader of his party in IlIInolB. he was willingand anxious that Republicans should eatpie. In the taxpayers' restaurant every dayin the year.

Henry BaJer and his colleagues can pro-ceed with their merry game of trying tofool the people of East- - SL Louis, and theywill still find favor In tho-sye- s of the Gov-ernor of Illinois. When the news reachedEditor George Thomas and other real Re-publicans for principle and not for peltthey can Invest In a gross of files and gnawthem until after the. April election.

Tho net gain for Senator Alden by to-day's .recount, setting aside the ballots heldup or objected to, was 7 votes- - His netgain up to date Is 11 votes,. All, together tho

Democratic Caucus.The- - Democratic members of the House

and Senate held a caucus ht and de-cided to present as minority reports to thetwo bodies of the General- - Assembly thocongressional and senatorial apportionmentmeasures heretofore prepared and pub-lished, and to support them on- the floorwhen the proper time comes. Tbe congres-sional blll'nwkes six Democratic and fourRepublican districts In the counties of Cookand Lake, .and eight Republican and-- sevenDemocratic dlftrlcts In the country. Thesenatorial bill gives Cook County ten Dem-ocratic nnd nine Republican districts, nndthe remainder of the State- Is divided Intonineteen Republican and thirteen Demo-cratic districts. There was no opposition.

Governor Yates sent to the Senate thismorning a message announcing the ap-pointment as trustees or the Charitable Eyeand Ear Infirmary Wflllam T. Montgomeryof Chicago and Arthur E. PrlncVof Spring-field to succeed J. W. Pettlt of Lasalle andL. S. Lambert of Galesburg. resigned.

McKensIe'a Speech.Senator McKenzie' resolution providing

for the submission of a constitutionalamendment which will limit; Cook County'srepresentation In the Legislature to one-thi- rd

of the members, was taken up as aspecial order. Senator McKenzie made astrong, speech In favor of .the resolution.' ,"It has' been . asserted that thl. 'reso-lutlon- ."

said 'he. "was a club to be uied In.forcing the Cook County members Into do-ing, certain" thlnss on apportionment.

Judgment, seventeen Senators can representthe Interests of that county fully and fair-ly In the Senate, and fifty-on- e Representa-tives can fully represent Cook in that body.Unless this limitation Is put upon therepresentation of Cook the country mem-bers will lose their Influence In the Legis-lature, and I hope that they will stand, to-

gether. The chairman of the DemocraticState Central Committee Is opposed to thisand Is undertaking to create the Impres-sion that It will be for the Interest otthe Democratic party to defeat this propo-sition.. I do not believe that any countryDemocrat will be fooled by this argument.The time has come for us to forget thatwe are partisans and to stand together.

"Regarding tho argument that the repre-sentation should be based entirely uponpopulation, I desire to say that the consen-tratlo- n

of population In a small territoryIs a condition which has been taken intoaccount before In limiting representation.New York for many years has had a limi-tation of this sort.

"Tho people ot Illinois aro watching thisresolution and woe be to the men from thecountry who does not stand with them. Hewill be branded as a traitor to the Interests,of tho people of this State, a traitor whoturned his back upon the people when thetime came for him to vote for them. Hemay as well put a rope around his neckand hang a mill stone on it and go overand Jump In the Ohio River as vote againstthis resolution."

Senator Jnnl'a Reply."I am amazed," said Senator Juul (Rep.)

of Chicago, "that any such argument ashas been advanced In support of this reso-lution should be mode In the Senate of theState of Illinois. It Is true that there isprecedent for this action. New York hastaken such action. The same thing wasdone In Paris and Victor Hugo has told ofIt .under the title of The Story of a CrimeI desire to ask the Senator from Jo Daviesswhether this Assembly should representlands and cattle or should represent fleshand blood. If the Government ot the Stateof Illinois Is formed for the numoee et taking care ot the lands and cattle alone, Isuppose that this resolution is right, but Ifthis Is a representative Government to rep-resent the people of the State of Illinois, theproposition to discriminate against the people In a certain section is outrageous."

Senator Davidson (Dem.) of Newton spokein favor of the resolution. "There seems."said he. "to be considerable misapprehen-sion regarding the purpose of this resolu-tion. The gentlemen from Cook Countyare arguing the question on the theory thatthe Senate Is about to deprive Cook Countyof representation in the General .tssembly.This resolution doea not do anything of thesort. It simply proposes the submission tothe people of Illinois of the question ofchanging the bnsis of representation. Thepeople of this State arc the source of allpolitical power. This Is one ot the ques-tions they have the rlcht to uass on. andby the adoption ot thin resolution we submit tne question to tnem.

Senator Davidson snoka eloauentlv andlogically and at some length.

Ilahoaey Opposed.Senator Mahonev (Dem.) of Cook spoke

against the resolution.--i ao not neneve tnis resoiution-wa- s in-

troduced here to aid in the passage of theRepublican apportionment bills. It is In-troduced for the purpose of pandering tothe people of tbe country, and not becausethere Is any general demand for this reso--lutlon. The adootlon of thl. resolution wlll I

hlnt f,.o- ntb. nrntu.. rfm... . .K. 'Constitution, and I do not understand howmembers who favor the election of UnitedKtntp 53p'n:itrr hv Hfrprt vntu and tvhrt vIa--mand a new revenue system can vote fortnis measure.

"In the name of tho Lord," demandedSenator MUchrlst (Rep.) of Chicago, "what'has Cook County done that It should bediscriminated against In this manner?Don't we pay our taxes? Do we use up yourrevorue? Do Busse, Campbell and Mahoneycarry red flags that you. want to putthrough a resolution like this? What areyou afraid or? That's what I would like toknew. I desire to say that there is InIllinois something that is much more dan-gerous than Cook County, It Is the appropri-ation-eating Institutions and their or-ganization outside ot Cook County. Itstarts over In Jo Daviess and It runs downInto McDonough and over Into Kane and

, and all the way down the S'lterid back again up through Coles andChampaign and Kankakee. But it missesCook. There Is a-- cancer for you. But I'won't ball It a cancer, though It Is a ringthat Is eating up the revenues of this State.There are a tot of leeches around .theseInstitutions, and If I had my way theywould be killed off."

Senator McKenzie closed tho debate."Effcrt Is made here to Invoke the spiritof partisanship In this discussion," said he."It Is an edifying spectacle to see the hon-orable editor of the Chicago Tribune actIn unison and working hand In hand with'Hit key-Din- and other statesmen frfirathe levee to defeat this resolution. It tsdelightful to see tbe warrior statesmanfrom Cook County (Senator MUchrlst), thevenerable .veteran who hates a Democratlike he does a rattlesnake, clasping handswith the leader ot the Democratic side, at-tempting to show that this Is a partisan af-fair. The members from the country maynot be as polished as those from the city;they may not have the command of language and tbe education and the refinementof gentlemen who live up In Chicago, butthe fellow who lives out on the pralrlawhere tho wind fans his face until- - It Lbrown generally has more or less com-mon 'horse sense.' even though, as theeditor of tho Record said, 'the meadowlarks iray buHd nests In his whiskers.' I,do not think any of the country membersof this Legislature will misunderstand thefull force and effect of this amendment"

Resolution Adopted.Tho resolution was adopted. ayes to 12

nays, exactly the constitutional two-thir-

In the affirmative. Senator Templeton ofPrinceton was tbe only country member tovote nay. All the Cook County Senatorspresent votcd In the negative. The affirma-tive votes all came from the country. Sen-ator Fowler was the only country absentee.He would have voted aye.

The Senate confirmed the appointment ofWilliam Jayne ot Springfield' as a memberof the State Board of Chanties, and Gen-ei- al

James S. Martin of Marlon as Trusteeof the Carbondale Normal.

Senator Davidson's bill, to 'amend the actIn relation to wills, by providing that bequests made for charitable purposes withinthirty days of the death of the testatorshall be void, unless death be. caused by Oc-cident, was put upon Its passage, but metwith strong- opposition from Senators Dun-la- p

and Mahoney. The bill was finally re-committed to the Committee on Judiciaryfor amendment

Senator Median's- bill, to abolish roadcommissioners tn counties not under town-ship organization, was ordered to thirdreading without opposition.

Senator Chapman's bill to establish boardsof health In counties not under, townshiporganization was also advanced to thirdreading.

In the House' a .large number of .petitionswere presented against amending- - the fl.trand game law. Among the reason, as-signed by the petitioner, tor their opposi-tion are that tbe bills virtually d awaywith duck shooting: that tbe proBfUtloaagainst the kimntr of quail and fox squir-rels for five years Is unnecessary; as thisgame. It is alleged, has not been more plen-tiful in this State for forty years thannow.and that, .under the provisions ;ot- this bill

in response io a request irom me specialcommittee or tho House appointed to In- - t--

vestlgate John Alexander Dowte's "ZlonCity Bank" of Chicago.

"The Attorney General ts undoubtedlyright" said .Speaker Sherman. "The com-mittee possesses no power to compel wit-nesses to testify. It may ask questionsof Mr. Dow 10, but must be content' withanswers voluntarily given."

Continuing, he said:"If ho refuses to give the .committee any

information the matter ends there, so faras Mr. Dowle is concerned. However, Itwill be perfectly proper for the committeeto and obtain all the Informationit can from other sources without Mr.Dowle's assistance. Then It will be properfor tbe committee to make recommenda-tions to the General Assembly based uponthe Information thus obtained. '

Acting on the plan outlined by SpeakerSherman, the committee will, proceed withtbe investigation. The bills providing torthe State sUpervlsIon-t- f private banks willbe made .the- - basli of- - the committee'srecommendations. J. L. PICKERING.
