Mr. Moonoy subsequently rcforred his

Tho convention at first refused to concur
In tho commlttoo report, a majority favor

minority report from the committee on
Philippines on tho tariff bill. It says that

ice commission has cancelled the examina
tion for special statistics compiled for the
Department or Agriculture, held Juno 18
and 19 Inst, and has mado public Its report
on Its Investigation or tho integrity of that
examination.
Tho report says that employes ot tho

fairly assisted In their preparation for tho
examination by disclosures mado by, Mrs.
Bertha Rurch, an employe ln pursuance
of Instructions from John Hyde, statistician
ot the Department or Agriculture, directing
her to glvo all tho help In this' examina
tion, which she "legitimately" could..
Tho report says tho testimony shows that
advance Information of a raoro or less
definite character was gtvon out by her
covering at least six questions asked In
the examination, nnd also that unclassified
laborers In tho statistical division were
glvon other unfair advantages, tho ques
tions being framed In such a manner that
only ttibso experienced In the actual work
at tho division could pass,
Tho report calls attontloh to an apparent
effort by Statistician Hyde to forestall tho

LEADS TO ATTACK ON ADMINISTRATION

Clirclietl.
WASHINOTON, Jan. 27. An animated
and prolonged discussion was precipitated
In tbo sonato today over tho right ot army
officers to crltlclso utterances made In the
senate or clsewhcro on tho conduct of af
fairs in tho Philippines. At times It be
came somewhat acrimonious, officers In
tho Philippines being taken sharply to
task for statements attributed to them In
dispatches from tho Philippines.
Itlslng to a question of prlvllcgo early
In tho session, Mr. Dubois ot Idaho had
read an Associated Press dispatch from
Manila In which General Whcaton was
quoted as criticising somo utterances of
Prof. Schurmnn In a speech delivered In
Iloston. Mr. Dubois thought tho president
under tho circumstances would bo war
ranted In reprimanding General Whcaton
for his utterances. Ho declared that such
comment on tho action of tho senato was
"outrageous and lndocent" and that tho
minority had had quite enough of threats
and blackmail.
Tho debate thus precipitated took n wide
range. Mr. Lodgo of Massachusetts, Mr.
Spooncr of Wisconsin and others main
tained that no nowepnpor uttcranco ought
to bo accepted ns tho basis of a reprimand
of any officer unless it Were supported by
an Investigation Indicating tho accuracy
of tho report.
Money nnd IMntt In Dispute.
Rising to speak on the pending ques
tion, Mr, Money of Mississippi delivered an
extended speech, In tho course of which
ha went pretty thoroughly over tho whole
question.
Mr. Piatt ot Connecticut took sharp Issue
with tbo Mississippi senator on somo or his
conclusions or constitutional law, contend
ing that tho United States could not bo ox
pected to grant Independence to tho Fili
pinos and to relinquish nil rights In tho
islands merely becauso ot the natives' do
slro for liberty. '
Soon after the senato convened today
Mr. bodge, chnlrmnn ot the Philippine
commlttoo, ravorubly reported a resolution
authorUIng that committee to make an In
vestigation ot tho Philippine question and
for that purposo to sit during tho sessions
of tho senate. Tho resolution was referred
to tho committee on contingent expenses.
Mr. niackburn ot Kentucky presented
the credentials ot Jnmes D. McCrcary, ro
contly elected a senator from Kentucky
for n crm ot six yenrs, beginning on March
4, 19031 They wero placed on flic.
Isthmian Cnnnl Commission.
Mr. Honna of Ohio llkewlso presented tho
credentials ot his cqllcaguo. Joseph Den
son Foraker, who was re-elected recently
to the sonato for a term of six years, bo
ginning March 4, 1003. They wore read
and filed.
In Introducing a resolution providing tor

of personal prlvllcgo directed attontlon to
on Associated Press report irom Manna,
qUotlng Oonernl Whcaton as criticising
Borne remarks or Dr. Bohurman In a spooch
at Boston nnd that tho opinion was preva
lent In tho Philippines that rrten wore sent
rn nrlflnn In Manila for saying lesB. I think.
said Mr. DubolB, In view of the statoments
In this dispatch, tho president ought to re
primand Ocnornl Wheaton and those or-
nnna in lho Ptilllnnlnen who aro crltlnlnlnir
tho'senato for Its action or statoments re
garding the Philippines. Ho said:
Dubois lleciotnes Sarcastic. ,
t An nnt linnw who General Whcaton Is.
but ho Is probably somo charity boy ap
pointed to West Tolnt by a senator or rep
resentative and since supporica ny me
government. Such remarks as he Is quoted
as having mado are, nowever, outrageous
and Indecent."
Mr T .nil it a nf Massachusetts auctrestcd
that It would bo wlso to ascertain, before
General Wheaton was reprimanded, wnetner
ho actually mado tho statements auriDuien
to him. General Whcaton, he said, was an
officer of ability and character, and no
hasty action should be taken In such a
case.
Mr Tlinr nitbi! "I don't think there Is
any doubt that General Wheaton said what
Is attributed to him."
Mr. Lodge: "There may be a great deal
ot doubt about It."
Mr Tnltpr rontlnulne. said such a situa
tion as had arisen, was one of the bless
ings growing out ot 4he conditions In the
Philippines. A padlock, he asserted, was
to bo placed upon the moutn or every man,
congressman or private cltlxen, and all
criticism ot the administration's Philippine
policy was to be silenced. Ho referred to
the criticism ot senators, who had antag
onized the administration's policy In the
Philippines, declaring they had been
charged even with treason.
Teller Tnkes a Gloomy View.
"I suppose," said ho, "that no senator,
after a while, will be able to read on this
floor tho declaration of Independence with
out subjecting himself to a chargo of In
citing treason." ,
He said that if Prof. Schurman'a speech
were published in the Philippines It was
known over there that he proposed that tho
Filipinos should ultimately have their In
dependence. "Anybody," he asserted, "who will criti
cise tho utterances ln that speech would
criticise tho declaration ot independence If
he dared to do so."
Mr. Lodge said Mr. Teller's statements
concerning the declaration ot independence
was "silly." What Prosldcnt Schurman
said In Doston did not, in his opinion, con
cern tho senate The only point was whether
a general ot tho United States army had
criticised the senate. It did not appear
from tho dispatch that General Wheaton
had referred to tho senato at all. Ho
had'a porfect right to comment upon Prof.
Schurman's utterances It he wished to. It
would be a most unulual proceeding to ns
sumo that General Wheaton was guilty of
any Indlscrcotlon until ho had been heard
from.
Tlllninu Adds n Word.
In response to Inquiries by Mr. llawllns
of Utah, Mr. Lodgo said ho did not know
whether newspaper dispatches sent from
Manila Were censurod or not, nnd ho did
not know whethor the War department had
or had not taken stops to ascertain whether
General "Wheaton had mado the statements
credited to him.
Mr. Carmack of Tennessco questioned tho
right of any officer ot the United States
army to criticise cither tho actions or the
utterances ot any prlvato citizen. Mr.
Tillman or South Carolina lnterruptol to
say that the general commanding tho army
had beon reprimanded by the president for
agreeing wun tno admiral or the navy unon
a question In which "all the peoplo or tbo
united states were absolutely ssreed."
Mr. Hoar of Mas&shueetts contended that
no unsupported newspaper report on a mat
ter or this kind ought to bo accepted by
tho senate. He therefore deprocated tho
Injection ot tho Manila Item Into the senate
proceedings He thought the whole mat
ter should bo eliminated from consideration)
as ho believed It entirely llkoly that Ocn
ornl Wheaton would bo reproved It ho had
mado any statements lift ought jiot to have
mado. k
For tho tlmo this closed tho Incident.
Dills woro passed as follow:
To amend nn act granting to the Clear
water Valley Itallroad company a right ot
way through tho Ncz Perccs Indian lands lu
Idaho.
Mr. Nelson, In charge of tho Department
of Commorco bill, had read a long letter
from John W. Hayes, general secretary
treasurer of tho Knights of Labor, In sup
port of tho bill.
Sir. Jones of Arkansas read a protest on
tho part of railroad engineers, firemen and
other employes against tho transfer of the
department of labor to the now Department
of Commerce. Tho bill went over without
progress having been mado and tho discus
sion ot tho Philippines tariff bill was re
sumed. I.oiIrc Offers Apology.
Mr. Lodge said ho desired to apologlzo
for referring to anything Mr.' Teller mny
havo said ns ''silly," and pointed out that
tho statement ot General Whcaton did not
crltlclso tho minority of tho sennte, but
simply Prof. Schurman. He Insisted that
thero was no disposition on tbo part ot any
body to suppress news or views. Ho In
stanced tho circulation ot a letter urging
tho soldiers In tho army of tbo Philippines
to not continue to serve.
"Who sent out that circular?" Inquired
Mr. Jones ot Arkansas.
"It was sent out, I think," replied Mr.
Lodge, "by Mr. Kdwln Atkinson. It urged
soldiers not to serve In tho Phlllpptno war.
Tho lettor was widely circulated and at
tracted attontlon."
Mr. Hawlln insisted that the suppression
Of Information nnd opinions was so numer
ous that ono could not depend on tho
statements coming to tho united States
from tho Philippines. Tho Philippine com
mission, ho said, had arrogated to Itsclt
the functions of .copgrers.
Krrors of CnninilKxIoii.
Indocd, tho commission hnd done many
things which congress would novor havo
done. Tho dispatch under discussion Indi
cated that tho authorities in tho Philip
pines were prcpnrcd to punish what they
considered treasonable acts and utterances.
Mr. Dubois lnsUtcd that tho dispatch ho
had presented boro evidence on Its faco or
accuracy. Wo havo bocn threatened nnd
blackmailed, ho said, "as long as wo ought
to enduro It.
"Such utterances as havo beon Instnnced
ore offensive to us nnd they ought not to
be permitted to pails without n reprimand
by tho president of tho United States.
They coming from officers of tho army
is exceedingly bad taste."
Mr. Spoonor deemed it tho part of wis
dom to ascertain first whether General
Wheaton had made the statements attrib
uted to him beforo any nttcmpt was mado
to securo his censure.
Thinks Dlspnfclt Inspired.
Mr. Tillman of Bpuitr' Carolina Inter
rupted to lnqulro who, would rurnlsh tho
proot that tho dispatch read had not been
Inspired.
Mr. Spooncr replied that ho did not bo
Hove that It was cither inspired or cen
sored, but ho beltoved tho sennte ought to
await doflnlto Information. General
Wheaton was a fine officer of great
achievements.
"Yen," 'interject Mr,r Tillman. Vhe Is
a brilliant officer dong some very dirty
work; that Is my opinion."
"Well, It Is not mlno," replied Mr.
Spooner. "I havo tho .word of tho senatdr
from Indlona, (Deverldgq) that the censor
ship ot news dispatches In lho Philippines
was abolished somo tlmo ngo.1'
Mr. Money mado an extended speech In
criticism or tho government's policy In
tho Philippines, declaring:
"We are committed to It, I suppose, un
til wo havo a decldod Interval! nnd we are
not likely soon to have that."
SMunHim "Will (Trim- Worse.
Mr. Halo Interrupted to say that tho
situation In the Philippines will grow
worso Instead ot better and that It Is
anomalous to mix tho civil and military
government.
Replying to a question from Mr. Halo
as to what ho would do with tho Islands,
Mr. Money replied: "Lot them go to tho
dovll and take caro of themselves as far as
tho American peoplo aro concerned."
Mr. Money, answering Mr. Hoar, said that
beforo the United States, declared war
thero wero vlUnRo. governments peaceful
and successful, In. tho Philippines,
Mr. Tlntt of Connecticut said ho dld-not
want to let this occasion pass without ex
pressing his emphatic dissent from tho
principle on which Mr. Money's remarks
were founded. The Mississippi sonator, he
said, had not questioned the rights In the
Philippines, our sovereignty over tho Is
lands, or our legality over tho acquisition
ot them, yet he Insisted wo woro whero the
constitution was not, and wo ought to ac
cord to tho Filipinos their Independence
becauso thoy demanded It.
J tin tinea Philippine 1'olloy.
Mr. Piatt contended that It tho United
States had the right to acqulrd territory
and hold sovereignty over It, It would bo a
stultification of ourselves to yield our rights
to that territory as soon as tho inhabitants
demanded their Independence.
Mr. Foraker concurred with Mr. Piatt.
In concluding tho debate, Mr. Dubois, re
ferring to Mr. Spooner's remarks, said he
was entirely satlsflod that tbo Associated
Press dispatch was accurate.
"No Associated Press reporter," said he,
"ever put words Into a man's mouth that
ho did not utter. I havo every reason to
believe tho dispatch Is accurate"
Ho said, however, that It tho statements
