work of lescuing Anderson was resumed
The men worked as rapidly as thu circtim-
Htntictt would permit In lemoving the diit
from abo\o him. This hud to bo done with
tlio utmost caution , as the displacement of
ono boaid or the giving waj of anj part of
the cuitli In which thoeuiblng icsts Is liable
to cause the whole strut turo to collapse anil
prccipitato Anderson to the bottom , a hun
dred feet below. About all that is covering
him now arc the boiiids of the old curbing ,
that have formed Into something of a roof
and to get to him a hole must bo cut through
this. It will be aeiy dangerous task , as
the cuiblng and n largo quantity of sand from
the sides in o resting on these boauls. An
effort was m.ulo to saw the boards , but after
cutting one board the cnrhimr sank a few
Inches and considerable sand caved in. Ad-
del son asked for tools and mateiiul and lias
been working most of the daas much us
his strength would pci mil making the curb
ing ft out his platfoim and bracing the roof
I 'ood and water have been gUen him regu-
laily and ho is much stionger to dai. Work
has been suspended until daylight , when the
boards will bo cut again , and if Anderson's
curbing and bracing stand the test his
chances are good of getting out alive.

Mr. Fr.\o s nd Unit hu would ask the

Monday and Tuesday and until a vote vas

thu tnrill bill would bo bofoio the senate and
would oceupi all its time.
Mi. Tellei commented i.pon what ho called
some of the ' romaikab'o ' statements" n. thu
.peccli ot the senator from Mainland. Ho
spoke of mi edict having gone out from the
white house that the tieaty was lo bo sup

tor fiom Mniyland , ho said , had gonosoxcial
degices beijend wliich any Hiitish olllci.il
liad ever gone , in Ins efforts to defend the
tieaty. Hu challenged the senator to point
any British or Canadian authoi ity that had
taken so high and extreme a position as he
had taken.
Mi.ilson invited Teller to paiticulailro
thochaigo. it was aveiybioad statement
a statement tlio eoireetness of which ho
denied. Ho asked him lo state ono single instance -
stance in which lie ( Wilson ) had stated the
Hiitish claim moio strongly than it had been
stated by Great Hutinn or Canada
Mi. Teller said ho could not bo expected ,
after a speech ot two houis , to go over it
item bi item.
Mr. Wilson "Tho Ron.itor ought not to
make such a chaigo unless ho is prep.ued to
maintain it. "
Mr. Teller "Tho senator has taken the
oxtieme Canadian sido. "
Mr. Wilson ' ! have not. I have taken
the side which my judgment told
mo was collect. When I commenced an
examination of the question , my prejudices
wcio all against it , and I doubted whether I
could vote for it. But the conclusions lo
winch I have come have ) been the conclusions
of my own judgment on facts and the law of
the case. If 1 am vviong , I alone am re
sponsible. But ono thing is ccitain , and that
is that no fling against me1 , as having as
sumed tlio side of the enemy , will ever in
duce mo to suppress the sentiinenls of my
mind and dictates of my heart. "
Mr. Teller "I have not suggested that the
senator fiom Marvhnid wns not actuated by
piopci motives. I have not suggested that
Ho has not winked himself into the belief
tlmt tlio oxtienio demands of tlio Canadians
haxo been fnlily Intorpietcd in tlio tienly. I
know Iho piessuto under which ho his la
bored. I know the pressure under which the
democratic minority in this body has laboied.
I know that the socretaiy of slalo has con-
sidcicd it his light and duly lo wiito lettois
and lo have newspaper intei views on the
subject in older to induce popular favor lo
como lo this lioaty. I know that the presi
dent sent a message hero approving it I
know what nil that means to men who sup-
poit the administration. I know that they
may possibly see cleaili their light. I Know ,
fin ther , that on that side of the
chamber theio are men who thought
ns wo on this side think , but who
have been brought under tlie influence of the
udmmistiation to suppoit tlio tieal.v. "
Mr. Saulsbury asked Mr. Teller whether
his own poi jon.ilexperience as u member of
thu icpublic.m cabinet led him to suppose
that scnntois had been influenced us ho sug
gested.
Mr. Teller said ho had had no such ex
perience in his public lifo or in ids public
reading as Unit of the seeiclary of state
making himself an active propagandist of 11
treaty
Mr. Morgan asked him whether the treaty
had not been carried Into the republican
caucus and voted upon , and whether it had
not there been determined that thu tieati
should bo opposed by the whole lepubllcan
pai ty , and tlmt no amendments should bo al
lowed to it.
Mr. Teller replied tbat no republican cau
cus had ever pissed upon the question
whether icpubllcunstshould vote for it 01
not There never had been a lepublie-an
senator in favor of itlaud nodcmoci.it would
over have voted for itjjf it hud not como fiom

asked whether theio could bo any amend

would nc.'epl. Tho1 republican opposition
was not to llio details of thu treaty , but be-
causj tlio treaty was a suucndor of the
Ametlcan case.
Mr. Morgan , in reference to a point in Mr
Teller's speech as to thieats In case ofu 10

The polity of this bill was the polk y wliich
lind been followed ever since the Pilgiim
Futheis put foot on Pl\ mouth lotk. Civil-
i/atinn was tine , and It must bo accepted
btlie Indians because the Anglo Saxon nice
liad gene foith llku a flood tide and tlio In
di ins might .is well icslst the waves of tlio
ocnan as to icsist its ptogiess. Thcso people
must como tinder the laws of the United
States. The white man was us good as the
Indian and the white man had to submit to
the laws , The deuce had gene foilh. It
had been signed when the Pilgrim Fatliois
knelt on I'l.v mouth rock and devoted this now
vvoild to civilization , to liberty , and to law.
It liad been emphasi/ed when the Anglo-
Saxon Hvvung his rlflo on Ins shoulder and
in irched west , 'ihat decree was that tlio
A met lean savages must submit to civiliza
tion , and that the goveiinncnt would not

bleeding of savages. Tins gentlemen might
as well leeogni/o the fact tlmt it was a
condition and not a theory that tonf touted
them.
Mr. Pei kins of Kansas cunestly favored
the bill. In the name of the people of the
west who weio without homes he asked for
this legislation. Ho emphasbcd as idle the
vehement denunciation ot the bill.isiobbery ,
and contended Unit it did not take ono aero
ot land fiom tlie Indians in violation of the
tieaty stipulations.
Mr. Cannon , of Illinois , said that ho was
for the bill. If it was a violation of tlio
ti eat \ , tieaties had been viola-ited all along
the line from the time w Into men Hist came
to this counti v. If it was a violation of the
treaty , fiom the standpoint of humanity and
civili/ation tlio govoinment must continue to
violate treaties Theto would bo no ttoublo
about this whole matter woio it not that an
individual man was put oft the Chciokco strip
at tlio point of a bayonet , while tlio cattle
s.vndicatcs fenced in six or seven millions of
aeies and letained possession , notwithstand
ing thu opinion of the attoincy gencial
that they liad no light to do so.
They vv ent to the legislatm o of the Clici okees ,
in order to eonupt it , and reached out heio
with their powei fid arms against the intciest
of white men and Indians to try to defeat
this legislation , in order that they might
keep possession of the land.
Tliis closed tlio gencial debate , and the
bill was read by p.uagraplis for amend
ments.
Mr. Carey of Wyoming offered an amend
ment in the line ol n resolution of the Chicago
cage convention , that all officers appointed
by the piesident for any territory that had
been organized for n period of live i ears or
moio should bo selected from bonalldo resi
dents of tlio tcintoiy in which they aio to
serve.
The point of older was made and sustained
against tlio amendment tliat it was not gcr-
main to the bill. .
Carey offered an amendment making it
applicable to Oklahoma only , and it was
adopted.
Mr. Pai son of Illinois offered an amendment -
mont providing Unit lands contained in the
Oklahoma teuitoiy shall bo disposed ol
tinder the homestead law instead of at 1.25

The Paddock bill , winch iceently passed

of tlio second and third class , came tip in the

Whin the time expiicd for its consideration

almost unanimously in fas or of the measure1 ,

There is nothing watover in the vague In-

the effect Unit Geneial Haiiison has had a
connection with a Montana ( syndicate. Not
long ago I called General Harrison's atten
tion to .1 statement of this kind in a news
paper , and ho said : "That Illustrates clearly
sonio of tlio injustices done by tlio tongue and
pi ess. Atou.\e.us ago my son went to
Montana with aory few thousand dollars
and engaged In the ealtlo business Ho was
able to buy but a small herd ,
and as It did not icqniio ' all
of his attention ho was inked to i
look after another small held , belonging to
ono ot his f i lends. Ho consented to do so , I !
do not think that all of the eattlo ho had
undei his ch.il go would have bi ought $40,000
In the maiket , I believe the cv.ttlo were
llmilly disposed of to a syndicate , but whan
they \\cro sold the Harrison connection with , J
the eattlo business ended. I was nuvor on
ofllcer in a eattlo company and never owned *
a dollar in any cattle syndicate. "
