FORMER ASSAILS PRESIDENT
He Denounces Our Attitude Toward
England as Flunkeyism Thinks
It Proper that Lord Pauncefote Be
Ordered Home
WASHINGTON Feb 15 The mo
notony of a private pension day of
the house was enlivened by an im
passioned speech from Mr Wheeler
of Kentucky in denunciation of what
he denominated flunkeyism to for
eign countries He took the recent
statements emanating from the conti
nental cabinets regarding the attitude
of Great Britain during the Spanish
American war as a text for a whole
sale attack upon the trend of the
United States recent diplomacy He
severely scored Secretary Hay and de
clared that if Lord Pauncefote had
sought as was alleged to circumvent
this country during the war of 1898
the sooner he was shipped across the
seas the better
He also criticised the president for
his reported intention to send his
daughter to the coronation of King
Edward and protested against the offi
cial reception of Prince Henry
His speech aroused the house to a
high pitch of excitement and elicited
from Mr Boutell of Illinois a spiced
defence of Secretary Hay whom he
eulogized in high terms Several
members took a hand and later in the
afternoon Mr Grosvenor of Ohio took
Mi- Wheeler to task for his inop
portune protest and rehearsed the
history of the visit of the prince of
Wales to this country in 18G0 and
his reception by President Buchanan
Mr Wheeler excoriated what he
termed the modern disposition toward
European flunkeyism Until 189G
he said all Americans had gloried in
the splendid isolation of the republic
and its determination to hold aloof
from foreign entangling alliances
Less than five years ago he declared
a president goaded on by the pitia
ble flunkey in the State department
had stretched his arms across the seas
in adulation to the people of Great
Britain and today the government was
hugging to its bosom that which since
the battle of Yorktown had systemat
ically and persistently plotted our
downfall
I have respect for the present oc
cupant of the White House I frankly
avow said the speaker I think he
is too honest to be palatable to the
average republican partisan A little
Quixotic it is true hasty tempered
full blooded and not exactly desirable
to many of our citizens and I indulge
the hope that the lingering element
of Americanism will induce him at the
first opportunity to boot out that man
in the State department who in my
judgment has brought us to this hu
miliating condition
He continued
England a friend of the United
States I would to God she were but
what a spectacle have we presented
in order to boast that we have the
friendship of Great Brtain and have
become a world power
For more than four years we have
witnessed Great Britain maintaining
military stations inside the borders
of two republics We have seen her
agents going up and down this coun
try enlisting men and buying mate
rials of war and I believe I will not
travel outside the record when I as
sert that any member upon this floor
who has served here as much as
four years has received letters from
his constituents protesting against the
enforced enlistment of American boys
by the English government to do bat
tle in South Africa
We have swung further away from
the democratic traditions from repub
lican ideas and republican principles
in the last five years than in the pre
vious 100 years

WASHINGTON Feb 14 The offi

of St Louis men identified with that

Assistant Secretary of Agriculture
Brigham head of the government
board and his assistants calculate on

desire fi building to cost 450000
Supervising Architect Taylor of the
Treasury department stated that the
building would cost from 50000 to
75000 more if built within the time

tion than it would if another year was
allowed

RUSSIA LIKELY TO PLAY EVEN

VIENNA Feb 14 The
anese treaty of alliance is the feature

stirring up disorders in Afghanistan
while the Russian government will lie
low awaiting the moment when Jap

KS ANNEXATION
FILIPINOS PETITION FOR PERIY1A
NENT UNION WITH AMERICA
SEND A MEMQB1AL TO CONGRESS
Says Natives Desire a Definite Civil
Form of Government All Provlncos
Except Two Said Now to Be Peace
ful
WASHINGTON Feb 13 The me
morial of tho federal party of the
Philippine islands was transmitted to
the senate yesterday by the secretary
of war together with a letter of
transmittal by Governor Taft in
whose charge the document was given
The memorial was adopted at an ex
traordinary session of tho federal
party held In Manila in Noevmber It
sets forth that the performance of that
obligation of the treaty of Paris which
gave the United States congress au
thority to fix the statutes of tho Phil
ippine islands has been deferred to
this time because of the attack by
the Filipinos upon the sovereignty of
the United States an act brought
about the memorial says through a
misunderstanding and not through
hatred of the American sovereignty
It further states that out of the
sixty provinces and districts war ex
ists in only two Batatngas and Sa
mar It also asserts that it is a dem
onstrated fact that the pueblos or
towns anxiously desire a definitive
civil rule and says that those who
are still in arms allege the lack of a
civil regime agreed upon and pro
mulgated by the congress of tho
United States as a weigh ty pretext for
their belligerent attitude which regimo
shall determine at once the political
status and civil rights of the inhab
itants of the archipelago in accord
ance with the treaty of Paris
The memorial then makes a pres
entation of the deduction of the fed
eral party that congress should pro
ceed to carry into effect its intention
of defining the future of the Philip
pines in their relations to the United
States and asserts that there Is no
reason for not replacing the military
regime by a civil rule of a popular
character in conformity with the de
cisive words of the never-to-be-forgotten
President McKinley
The memorial proper is divided into
two parts The first of these is a pe
tition for annexation and a presenta
tion of the form of government de
sired In this subdivision the federal
party sets forth that it has made an
exhaustive study of both the Filipinos
and tho Americans and concludes that
from the mass of data collected It is
the intention of the two peoples that
they should never be disunited The
memorial then proceeds
To make the Philippines a colony
of the United States or to grant in
dependence to the Philippines would
be to hand the islands over to disorder
and to anarchy to destruction and to
chaos In effect the colonial system
involves the principles cf difference
of citizenship in equality of rights
and other consequent abuses and in
justices of all of which we Filipinos
were surfeited under the Spanish gov
ernment and for this reason we re
ject everything which tends toward a
colony Philippine independence with
or without a protectorate means a
holding of power by all the tribal ele
ments of the secas which predominate
and would predominate still for years
until the anger of Filipinos toward
Filipinos shall have become complete
ly calmed education become general
and the fanaticism we have inherited
from Spain exiled Federation or an
nexation would settle all these cVfficul
ties by concentrating the interest of
the Filipino people upon education
and labor
HOPE FOR AMERICAN SUPPORT
British Papers Think We Sympathize
with Alliance
LONDON Feb 13 The liberal aft
ernoon newspapers view the alliance
between Great Britain and Japan with
mixed feelings and conservative or
gans generally applaud it The St
James Gazette conservative express
es modified surprise at this wide de
parture from British traditional pol
icy but finds solace in the thought
that the policy and interests of the
United States are identical with those
of Great Britain and Japan and con
cludes Perhaps we shall find when
the policy of Great Britain is definitely
known that the United States is
formally or informally a party to the
league of peace in the far east At
any rate no effort should be spared
to secure its adhesion
