PANAMA DEBATE IS WARM

of tba Presidsnt
SP00NER DEFENDS HIM AS WARMLY
liar's rrorerillna fltart Off with a
I.lrrlr Tilt Over the Labor
Troablea Now Going Oa
In Colorado.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 13.-PanR.ma again
today was the principal subject of consid
eration In the senate and as on yesterday
the debate was spirited. Mr. Carmack
opened the proceedings with a set speech
In pointed criticism of the president's
course and was followed by Mr. Bpooner,
the only other speaker of the day, in de
fense of the president's action as law Abid
ing and In defense of the -president himself
ns a "patriotic, brave ana true man.
Mr. Tillman frequently Interrupted Mr.
8pooner and there were a number of sharp
encounters between them. When the sen
ate adjourned the Panama question was
still before It, and it was announced that
the discussion would be resumed tomorrow
after the disposition of Postofflce depart
ment Inquiry resolutions.
Before the Panama subject was taken up
there was a brief but lively discussion be
tween Messrs. Patterson and Scott of the
labor troubles In Colorado.
Today's session of the senate be
gan with ' the presentation - by Mr.
Patterson (Colo) of a telegraphic
petition from the Federation of Labor of
Colorado. In session In Denver, requesting
the adoption of the resolution formerly pre
sented in the senate by Mr. Patterson pro.
vldlng for an investigation of the strike by
the senate committee on the Judiciary. Mr.
Tatterson .said that the federation num
bers 35,000 men. He asked to have the reso
lution referred to the Judiciary committee
together with the petition. The petition
was read. The request for an Investigation
was upon a representation of the extreme
gravity of the situation.
Senator Scott la Interested.
The presentation of the papers waa made
the basis of a sharp colloquy between Mr,
Patterson and Mr. Scott.
"The senator from West Virginia will
admit that he Is one of the mine owners,
said Mr. Patterson, and Mr. Scott admitted
that such was tho fact.
Mr. Scdtt then asked for the reading of
reply from the mine owners of Colorado,
but subsequently withdrew the request, con
tenting himself with asking to have the
reply go to the committee and be printed
and considered with other papers bearing
upon the question.
Mr. Patterson then proceeded to say that
the Colorado Mine Owners' association had
been more directly responsible than all
other influences for the course of Governor
Peabody of that state In connection with
the recent strikes. This organization is,
he said, devoting Its energies to securing
the extermination of union labor and he
claimed that great Injustice had been done
by the u.ne of the inllltia in imprisoning
men and establishing a press censor
ship, etc.
Mr. Scott said In reply that he had al
ways been a friend Df organized labor, but
there never had been "a more tyrannical
or despotic organization on the face of the
earth thun that which the Colorado sena
tor is championing here now."
The entire matter was then on Mr. Pat
terson's motion referred to the committee
judiciary and the senate took up and
passed the house bill for the eradication of
the cotton boll weevil.
The resolution looking to an Investigation
f the affairs of the Postofflce department
were laid before the senate, but by unani
moua consent went over again until to
morrow.
fteaolatfoaa oa Panama.
Mr. Hale offered the following resolution,
aa the result of an agreement between him
self and Mr. Bacon during yesterday's ses
slon, looking to a settlement of the Panama
question:
Whereas, The state of Panama, for
merly a part of the Republic of Colombia.
seceded from that republic and haa
i government, republican in form, un'
der the name of the Republic of Panama
and.
Whereas. The Independence of said Re
nubile of Panama has been recognised bv
me i mien states ana uy many other na
tions: and.
N hereas. A treaty Is now pending be
fore the senate between the United States
and the Republic or Panama, the rati flea
tlon of which will Insure the soeedv build
Ing of the Interoceanlc canal by the T'nlted
States across the territory of said ReDubllc
of Panama; therefore,
Resolved. That, tn any claim which the
Republic or Colombia In any form, may

Republic olornhla. the president is re
quested to tender his best offices toward
the peaceful adjustment of all contrnver
ales that have arisen, or may arise, between
saia KepuuKc ot Colombia ana the Kepub
lie of Panama.
The resolution waa read and Mr. Hale
stated that ho presented It aa a substitute
for the Bacon absolution. He said he would
not ask for Immediate consideration. -
Carmack oa Uoranaa Resolatlon
The Panama resolution offered by Mr.
Gorman was laid before the senate and Mr.
Carmack was recognized.
Mr. Spooner moved to strike out of the
Gorman resolution on Panama the . fifth
section, which provides:
And also to Inform the senate which
woras. n any. in in. treaty or 1MB author
lsed the United Slates, in the opinion ot
the piesldent, to enter by military force
and uninvited Into the territorial Juris
diction of New Granada or Colombia In
order to prevent the Interruption or em
barrasment of free trallic across the isth
mus.'
Mr. Carmack said the republican ad'
ministration had been guilty of the worst
kind of partisanship In refusing to execute
the Bpooner law" because of the fear that
the opposition would secure an advantage.
He then discussed at length Mr. Lodge's
defense of the president's rights to recog
nlze the Independence "of other Countries.
and spoke or the new Isthmian power as
"a hideous abortion of night and darkness,
misnamed the Ttepubllc of Panama."
bays President Made War. '
Mr. Carmack contended that President
Roosevelt had not contented himself with
the recognition of Panama, but had Inter
vened. "His acta were not simply often
sive, not simply a cause for war, but they
were war," he said. "Aa a matter of tact
there never waa any insurrection on the
Isthmua." said Mr. Carmack. "They 'speak
of the rising," he aald, "as the act of one
man. very true; and that one man was
the president of the I'nlted States."
Discussing t,he act of Colonel Black of the
United Slates army In raising the first flag
In the Panama republic, the senator crltl
clsed him sharply.
"I do not believe that Colonel Black
would have engaged In this plot if he had
not believed that he waa doing the will of
the administration."
He went on to say that the president's
course In tills matter waa not merely an
act, but policy, and' Indicative ot hii
character. It waa not meant for Colombia
alone, but was the beginning of a system
of Intermeddling with the affairs of the

and such a policy must Inevitably Involve

American nations themselves, but with
Kuropesn nations. In conclusion Mr. Car
mack ssld that while he was for the
canal, he could not vote for the treaty
because he could not endorse the acts
of which it Is the fruit.
When Mr. Carmack took his seat, Mr.
Aldrich asked what practical system Mr.
Carmack had to offer.
"Defeat the treaty," responded Mr. Car
mack.
Then what?"
Build the Nicaragua canaH."
"Ah." responded Mr. Aldrich. "that is
the milk In the cocoanut."
Mr. Aldrich proceeded to say that he
was In favor of building the canal anu
building it now.
Spooaer Defends President,
Mr. , Bpooner replied to Mr. Carmack,
saying that he had felt regret at hearing
the criticisms of the president, who had
registered an oath In heaven to discharge
his duties. Mr. Carmack had made a sinis
ter and unsupported statement when he
said that this country had begun a syste
matic encroachment on the riarhts of the
South American republics. No man had
stood more consistently for those republics
than had President Roosevelt, and Mr.
Bpooner instanced the course of the presi
dent In the Venezuelan dlfllculty. No presi
dent in our history had stood more
staunchly for the Monroe doctrine. He
hoped the southern republics would turn
a deaf ear to any lnaiviauai pronuncia-
mento to the effect that the United States
could ever Interfere In their affairs, except
In their Interest.
Mr. Bpooner sIfo gave attention to the
charges of disobedience of the' law by the
president.
As the author of the Bpooner act, the
speaker said, he wished to express the
opinion that the law had not been vio
lated by what the president had done. The
law, he said, recognized the superiority of
the Panama route because It was khorter
and because It was susceptible of being
mado a sea-level canal. Not only the busi
ness but the defense of the country might
demand a canal through which the war
ships could pass without going through
locks. Hence the choice of a line which
could be converted Into a sea-level route.
After reviewing the events relating to
the canal negotiations, Mr. Bpooner asked
whether any senator would, under the cir
cumstances, have turned his back on Pan
ama so long as there was a bill pending
In the Colombian congress, and he put the
question especially to Mr. Tillman, who
was on hlB feet. The latter said he would
have entered into negotiations with Nicara
gua and would have reported back to con
gress for further Instructions. He would,
then have said to Colombia:
You are a mangy lot; get off the face
of the earth; well take the country ana
build tho canal."
The remark caused an outburst of laugh
ter, both on the floor or tne senate ana in
the galleries.
After a minute's pause Mr. Bpooner said
that while he could not accept the sena
tor's lanauaae he conuratulated him on
coming to the president's position.
Mr. Tillman called attention to Mr.
Spooner's hesitation and tne latter repnea
that It'was because he was thinking how
thankful we should be that we have not a
president who would use to any nation
uch laneuns-e as the senator rrom Bourn
Carolina had used.
Continuing Mr. Bpooner warned the demo
crata that "a platform which Imputes dis-
hnnnr ta the administration and to the
brave, true man In the White House, will
And no nvniDathv with the people or tne
United States, 'north or south."
Colombia Seeks Treaty.
Replying to a question from i Mr. Near
lands. Mr. Bpooner said that (joiamma naa
sought the Hay-Herran treaty, but he did
not consider that the failure of that gov
ernment to ratify the treaty waa a breach
of International law.
Mi- Tillman asked If a discreet man
would not aUo have waited on congress be
fore warning Colombia off Its own pre
serves at Panama, and Mr. Bpooner an
swered In the negative,' saying that the
safety, the honor and the Interests of
the United States required that a presi
dent ahould do Just what Theodore Rooee
velt had done.
Mr. Tillman, urged that Mr. Bpooner had
evaded the real question. What he wanted
to krow was whether the president had the
right to use the army and navy as lie had
done. -
Mr. Bpooner declared that the president
had acted within the constitution and the
law In all that he had done In Panama.
He said that he for one resented the Impu
tation that the president had , been un.
scrupulous in his dealing with this ques-
tlon. This last statement waa made after
Mr. Tillman had expressed the opinion
that the American consul had bribed the
Colombian forces to withdraw from the
Isthmus. The first consideration of the
Bpooner act waa that the right to build
canal should be secured ana that ena
had been accomplished by dealing, not with
Colombia, but with Panama, Colombia'
successor. This was just aa legitimate, he
said, aa the transaction would have been
If it had been between Individuals. "The
attack," he went on, "is so virulent 'and
Inexcusable that no reasonable explanation
can be made 'ot It except that of partisan
ship of the bitterest kind." '
He invited the opposition to test the ques.
tlon by an early vote ana ciosea witn a
defense of the president as "a brave, pa
triotlc and frank man, who tries to do what
the law demands."
The senate at 6:08 adjourned with the
understanding that the subject would be
resumed tomorrow.
PRESIDENT ON ARBITRATION

HOUSE KILLS SALARY ITEM
Strikes Out Cifil BarT.'oa fa grph from
Appropriated EilL
SHIVELY TALKS ON POSTOFMCE M-.TTERS
Mr. Bartlett t sarin that the Appoint
ment of thief of the ftapply
Division Violates C Ivll
Service Laws.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 13. After a lively
debate lasting three hours, the house
today, by a vote of 7 to C3 struck out of
the executive and Judicial appropriation bill
the paragraph providing for the salaries
and expenses of the Civil Service commis
sion and clerks employed under tho com
misFlon. The action was taken on motion
of Mr. Hepburn of Iowa. He was sup
ported by both republicans and democrats.
both In speech and in vote. Those who
spoke In opposition to the civil service
system aa It now exists were Messrs. Hep
burn (rep., Iowa), Grosvenor trep., Ohio)
nd Bartlett (dem., Georgia). While among
those speaking for the civil service bill
were Messrs. Cooper (rep., Wis.) and Gil
lette (rep., Mass.). Notice was given by
Mr. Bingham In charge of the bill that a
yea and nay vote would be demanded of
members, striking out the provision for
the expenses of the Civil Service commis
sion when the bill Is reported In tha house.
No conclusion was reached In committee On
legislative bill.
The house today resumed consideration
of the legislative, executive and judicial
appropriation bill in committee of the
whole.
Mr. Bartlett (Ga.). taking up the report
of Fourth Assistant Postmaster General
Bristow, addressed himself to the civil
service system, referring to statements
made by Mr. Bristow.
Mr. Bartlett charged that in the ap
polntment of the chief of the supply dl
vision of the Postofflce department, ac
cording to the report of General Bristow,
the civil service law had been violated.
I call attention to this," he said, "be
cause It is on the very threshold or this
report. It meets you at the start, at the
very door and stands out as a bold, bald
violation of the law, and the man who
violated it, the man who encouraged It, the
man who started It, the man who asked It,
Is former First Assistant Postmaster Gen
eral Perry S. Heath, now secretary of
the republication national committee."
Speak Against Civil Service.
Mr. Cooper (Wis.) said that every ona of
the men under Indictment except one in
connection with alleged postofflce frauds
went into the service under the spoils sys
tem. Mr. Cooper read the letter of ex
planatlon addressed by the late Civil Serv
ice Commissioner Proctor to the postmaster
general in reply to statements contained In
the Bristow report relative to the Louis
appointment, prefacing the reading with
the statement that Mr. Bristow had done
a great and heroic work and that he was
absolutely fearless.
Mr. Grosvenor (O.) spoke against the
civil service aa It now exists, asking why
an appointment should not be as properly
made upon the recommendation of a rep
resentative ot the people aa to have the
president appoint Foulke to be purveyor of
all the appointments. He. asked why the
committee on civil service reform had been
sitting on the safety valve, saying that If
a vote waa permitted the Civil Service
commission would be stripped of a vast
amount of Its power..
Mr. Clark (Mo.) suggested that a bill be
brought before the house so the subject
could be debated and voted upon.
Mr. Grosvenor said the gentleman from
Missouri (Mr, Clark) could Immortalize
himself if he would Introduce and pass a
bill amending, enlarging, altering or af
fecting the old law, which, he said. Is re
garded as the perfection of human wisdom.
Concluding his remarks, Mr. Grosvenor
said that an oligarchy of three men had
been built up and up to a recent data waa
controlled by one man.
Mr. Lacey' (la.) aald the present system
was not a merit system as it now exists.
Men, he aald, had gone Into government
service without examination ana naa since
been covered In the civil service and are
now irremovable.
Mr. Norris (Neb.) spoke In favor of civil
service because, he said, it takes the ap
pointment from partisan politics.
MACHEN CASE IS ON TRIAL
Witness Telia of Dntlea of the Super
intendent and of Soma Irregu
larities. WASHINGTON'. Jan. lJ.-Robert J.
Wynne, first assistant postmaster general,
waa the central figure In the postal trial
today, and when court adjourned until
Friday he waa still on the atand. Mr.
Wynne's testimony occupied most of the
day and he waa subjected to a rigid cross
examination by Charles A. Douglass, coun
sel for the defense, during which the op
posing attorneys had several tilts, ne
cessitating a word of admonition from Jus
tice Pritchard that they must conduct the
case In peace. The first assistant post.
master general was piled with questions
designed to test his knowledge of the
duties of his office. The witness frankly
stated that he often had signed papers
prepaivd in Machen's division without
examining Into their contents, because
they came to him in official form and be
cause of the fact that he regarded Machen
one of the most "expert men In the
service and relied on him.
John J. Howley, Mr. Wynne's chief
clerk, occupied the atand for a brief time,
the principal part of his testimony re
lating to the fact that he suggested to
his superior officer the advisability of ex
amlnlng into the legality of Machen's
Initials and signature placed on the let
ters and requisitions by Machen's subor
dinates.
The cross-examination of John J
Howley, chief clerk In the office
of the first assistant postmaster
general, in the trial of August W
Machen and others, was continued today,
Mr. Douglaas conducting the examination
The wltnees detailed the duties of the gen
eral superintendent of free delivery, but
he could not state them aa a fact, aimply
from hla knowledge of office practice. Con
cernlng the placing of Machen's name and
initials cn letters by subordinates, witness
said Liebhardt. Machen's stenographer, had
for aeveral years done so. He admitted
that he knew of this practice three years
before he became chief clerk. He did not
speak ot it to his chief, he said, because
he did not wnt to interfere with the af
fairs of Machen's division.
He tolerated it, he said, until the postal
Investigation came up, and finally Informed
First Assistant Postmaster General Wynne
tnat the legality of these Initials and slg
natures should be looked Into. Witness
admitted that the order of Mr. Wynne
prohibiting the delegating of authority to
others to sign the names ot division chiefs
was not Issued until the Investigation was
on.
Replying to close questioning, Howley
said he could not recall any time when ht
held any conversation with Mr. "Wynne
affecting the expenditure of money tor his
office. He explained that division, chiefs
were trusted in these matters and that he
himslf never lnveatigated the subject mt
ler of letter On further questioning ha
said the first assistant postmaster general
waa required personally to altfa any lettera
calling for the expenditure of money, al
though from the number of matters Mr.
Wynne had to attend to he did not In
vestigate their nature or the necesnity for
the expenditure.
Mr. Kumler then took the witness and
secured from him the statement that until
the Investigation begun he never heard ot
any criticism of the Groft fastener.
Answering further questions the witness
said that the only time he ever held up any
letter emanating from Mr. Mat-hen's divi
sion was when some congressman asked
for more money than Mr. Machen had al
lowed. As a rule, however, routine matters
were regarded as routine and Mr. Machen's
acts were not questioned.
At this point Mr. Howley was dismissed
and Mr. Wynne, first assistant postmaster
general, took the stand. Tie said that In
the matter of purchase of supplies he al
ways transacted his business with Mr.
Machen, the general superintendent. HeJ
said it waa not a part of his duties to per
sonally attend to the direction or prepara
tion of orders for Oroff fasteners or other
supplies, nor did he determine the question
aa to whether the supplies were absolutely
necessary or not, unless particularly
brought to Ms attention.
He declared It was Machen's duty to
scrutinize every letter Involving the ex
penditure of money In order to savo him
(Wynne) from putting his name to a paper
that might be wrong.
On cross-examination by Mr. Kumler, Mr.
Wynne said he never heard of the Groff
faatener until the postofflce Inspectors
brought the matter to light. He declared
that he would not know the difference be
tween a Groff fastener and a locomotive.
Being ssked If he desired that statement
to go on record Mr. Wynne emphatically
said "yes. He did not. he said, make an
Investigation of the contents of certain
papers that he stoned, because they came
to him In proper official form.
Mr. Wynne waa still on the stand when
court adjourned until Friday.
