IS PLAYED BY SENATOR BURTON, KANSAS McCnaans Joins In Defense ef Assils Istratlon aad Declares Democrats Ignore History nnd Seek to Dlahonor Plan;. WASHINGTON, May 7. Discussion of the Philippine bill In the senate .took a sensational turn today. Mr. McComas of Maryland, referring to the alleged cruelties of American soldiers In ths Philippines, which be deeply deplored, told of some of the cruel Use which had occurred on both side during the elvtl war. Neither side, be held, was to be held responsible for those regrettable occurrences, as neither side approved them. In thia connection he auggeeted that senators from South Caro lina and Mississippi, "Where there Is less popular liberty than - In My other states, were shouting loudest for constitutional liberty In the Philippines." This drew a sensational reply from Mr. Tillman, who declared that It was. no longer possible to sneer away ths responsi bility for the Infamise committed by the Amerieane in the Philippines.; He said mm ll il ma ueen Known in iD wniia mat If the reins of government were to be given to the negroes ths civil war would have been prolonged Indefinitely. He . Instated that In order to maintain, their self-respect the white people of the south had been obliged to subdue the negro by whatever means they could, using the shotgun one of the means. Makea a Frank7 Admission He frankly described how ths negroes- had been defeated at the polls, admitting that the whlUe had gotten Just such ma- joritlee aa were neceaeary. "When we get ready to put a nigger's face In the sand," be shouted, "we put his body there, too." He declared that the people of the south' never would submit to negro domination and he hoped republican senators would turn from their "game of deviltry In the Phlllppinee and assist the south . to', rid Itself of threat of negro domination' While Mr. Tillman was speaking many of the democratic senators left the cham ber, his audience on the floor being largely i on the republican side. Mr. Burton of Kansas vigorously ' ar- I ralgned Mr.' Tillman for his utterances. He asserted that the senator who . f ould defend slavery and government - by ' the shotgun could not be expected to think well of senators who were- trying to carry good government to the Philippines. He was astonished that a senator should in ! one breath make an appeal for unsullied 1 government in the Philippines, and .

He paid a brilliant tribute to General Fuaeton as one of the great heroes of the army. After declaring that the war with Spain had been forced upon the United States by the democrats and that the Philippines had come to this country through that wet. Mr. McComas asserted that, in the .debates on ths Philippine question the democrats ig nored all history and Ignored,' the 'treaty which they helped to ratify. ' He said they proposed to undo the glorious work of the Isst four years, to denounce our treaty,- to disgrace the army and navy, to throw away the sovereignty over the islands, to defy the verdict of the people, .to reveres ths supreme-court and to scuttle, amid the flouts and Jeers of all the nations of the world.

MILLER AND YATES SPEAK They Adrian Rent Estnte Kxehnnsjo to Trent the Corpornttons Liberally. Dr. Oeorge L. Miller and H. W. Tates were the epeakers at the meeting of the Real Estate exchange yesterday. Mr. Yates poke of the work of the exchange In the taxation litigation and congratulated the membera on their success, saying that while he was Interested somewhat in the cor porations, he owned so much real estate that his sympathies were entirely with the exchange In the -proposition, so long as It maintained a right for equality and equity. He advlssd the exchange to treat the cor porations liberally and generously In1 the matter of the assessments for this year, now that the principal had been established. "You bare been successful in your con test," said he, "and I believe that you will be as earnest to secure an economic ad ministration of affairs as in seeing that the taxes ars justly levied. People who have the Interest of the city at heart must look In two directions in one to see that all bear their lust proportion of the public burden, and then to (ee that the money thus raised is expended in the most eco nomical manner." Dr. Miller spoke along the same lines, saying: "While I do not believe that the action of the exchange was without Justi fication, and while I want to congratulate them on their victory, I want to say thst since the suits began the impression has gone out that Omaha people are opposed to corporate enterprises. As long as this cry against corporations la confined to po litical demagogues and sgltators it will do little damage, but here In Omaha It Is seen that men of responsibility and competence have taken up the fight for legal relief against unequsl taxation and this has given the impression that such men as thess are opposed to corporations In themselves. This impression should be corrected and It should bs the desire of the members of ths exchange to aettle the present agitation as soon as possible, first seeing that justice is done all concerned. It should be known that Omaha 1 willing to welcome capital whether it comes in personal or corporate form for tne development of the city ana state and that all It requires Is that capital bear no more than Its just share of the oommon expense."
