SEES TROUBLE FOR UNITED STATES
Saya that Following Precedenta So
Established Oermaar Coald Selae
Vpoar Caka and Held It ar
Other talus.
WASHINGTON, Deo. .-After a sug
gestion that the Penrose resolution for an
Investigation of tha Postofflce department be
considered and a atatemcnt by Mr. Cullorri
that the Cuban bill should have the right-of-way,
the aenate today took up the Cu
ban bill when tha routine business was
completed. ' '
Mr. Teller continued his speech, begun
yesterday. He again took up the queittlon
of the activity of General Wood, while act
ing as governor Of Cuba, In behalf of Cuban
reciprocity with the United States. He
said there were official records to show
that the Cuban government had paid to
exceed 116,000 In that Interest during Gen
eral Wood's administration. He declared
that the preea of both the United States
Cuba had been Utilised in supporting
the policy of reciprocity and quoted figures
showing tne amounts rmlu tor newspapers
. -
In conclusion Mr. Teller said the -five
years' clause could have 00 weight because
no legls'.atlve' body can bind the act of a
future body.' That clause waa put in as a
sop, he said. Mr. Teller waa lonowea oy
Mr. Morgan (Ala.), who also opposed tne
bill. .
Mr. Morgan took oocaslon to refer fre
quently to the Panama canal treaty, and
In that connection freely criticised what he
dominated "presidential usurpation." He
declared the United States Is becoming
effected to the core with covetousness and
he said the country seemedTto be quiver
ing with doubt as to whether It should go
over entirely or pursue the better course
followed by our national fathers. Bo far
as he was concerned he would not be so
mean as to yield to a temptation to ad
vance tha commercial Interest of his state.

He said that the United States would do

please with the Island of Cuba,
She Is now fettered to the
decks of- our warships as firmly aa Prof.
Langley'a airship was ever attached to h!a
houseboat." He spoke of the negotiation
of the Panama canal treaty aa a grotesque
act and declared that Panama had "no
more right to appoint a minister to the
United States than that country had to
consecrate a saint.
'He came," th senator continued, "as a
swift-winged . messenger of falsehood dis
patched on his mission by the Panama Ca
nal company." So far as the concession
made to Cuba In this bill la concerned, ha
said It would not be regarded by the Cu
bans In anything but a serious light what
ever tha result may be. ."The Cubans will
not." he said, "regard It aa a ludicrous aot
In a French vaudeville, but will aocept It
seriously."
Mr. .Morgan said that Cuba would do
well to give careful heed to our purposes
in the legislation under aonslderauon,
They should not follow the old adage not
to look a gift horse In the mouth, for in
this cast "the gift horse Is a broncho
which greets them with a whlnney and
may send them iway with a kick."
Practically at War Trlth Coldmbta.
Returning to the Panama situation, Mr,
Morgan said that the United States Is
practically at war with Colombia aa tha re
sult of the fact - that the president had
fallen Into a trap. He wanted to have the
aenate keep frxim this tame trap and again
referred to Mr. Bunau-Varllla, .tha Panama
minister and after reviewing briefly that
gentleman's history as an engineer and
contractor on the Panama oanal said that
he had "contracted wisely and well and
had left the Isthmus a rich man."
Mr. Morgan said that his whole purpose
was to warn the senate against ratifying
a treaty, the negotiation of which ha char

acterised as "a most wretched, a most
abominable and a most horrible transac
tion." Notwithstanding this waa the rasa,
the senator continued, "the senate sleeps
over this breach of the Monroe doctrine,
hlle the . presidents' of France and tha
t'nlted States stand over tha recumbent
figure- and Intone In unison their solemn
and satisfied amen."
He expressed the opinion that the cost of
the Panama canal In its early stages would
be so great as to cause congress to stop
the appropriations before the enterprise
had gone far and thus accomplish the pur
pose of the transcontinental railways In
preventing tha construction of th canr.l.
gpooaer 1 aw Not Enforced.
Discussing the presldent'a message, ha
said the chief executive had failed to exe
cute tha Spooner law because It was dis
tasteful to him and declared that he had
not succeeded In formulating any Satis
factory excuse for his course. He pre
dicted that the time would come when
Cuba would "clip the threads that restrain
her and bind her to us and again float off
Into the sea of liberty."
In such - an effort, he continued, Cuba
might find a friend In Germany which
might follow our example and create a
state of Independence In a night and then
annex It with the coining sunrise. No
doubt there would be - fighting, for who.
he asked, "la more eager to fight than
Emperor William or our own strenuous
president ?"
He then proceeded to say that only yes
terday he had met a great democrat who
had a place In our affairs only second
m Importanoe to the presidency and had
made a name for himself In ' diplomacy
(evidently meaning former Secretary of
Stat Olney), who had bowed his head as
he said: 'For the first time in my Ufa I
have to confess that I am ashamed of the
attitude of my country.' "
Mr. Morgan, reverting again to Cuba,
said: "Our relations with that island
ought to remain as they are so far as our
economic policy is concerned or she ought
to be admitted as a state." ,
Mr. Morgan stopped speaking at 4:06 and
the senate went into executive session and
ten mlnutea later adjourned.
SEARCH LI OUT MATCHES.
t'neqnaled In Llarhtlna; anal Burning
Qnalltles.
It la surprising what a difference there- Is
tn tha various klnda of matches offered
for sale. ' Some are so short and so brittle
that one's fingers are always in danger
of being burned. Others are so Improperly
headed or manufactured that the heads fly
off or they fail to light.
Search Light matches, however, have
none of these Imperfections. They have
the reputation of being the only perfect
matches on the market.
Practical housekeepers buy them because
they are sure lighters and the sticks are
extra long. Burning a full half a minute,
they give more and better service than
other matches. Discriminating smokers
use them because they always light readily
and the sticks do not break easily)
It la practically a matter of wisdom and
eoonomy to buy Search Light matches.
Not only are they the best matches made,
but In every box there Is a coupon of suffi
cient value to make it worth getting and
saving. ,
Search Light matches are for sale by all
grocers. Buy them and -save tha coupons.

There will be a matinee at tho Orpheum

that are scoring heavily. Miss Violette of
Kelly and Violette. with her wealth of
stunning gowns and her blonde beauty, will
bo one of the features that will appeal to

Al. W. Martin's scenic and spectacular
revival of "Uncle Tom's Cabin," which
will be seen at the Krug tonight, promises

people, twenty of whom are negroes from
the nunny south, who were engaged by Mr,
Martin to fill out the many pictures ot the
play and present 'their famous dunces,
songs and plantation "shines." Thirty bead
