PARTY FEELING RUNS HIGH
Da'stll sad Oockraa Again EnUrUin Host
with f woo ili ties.
COCKRAN'S POLITICAL HISTORY AIRtO
Mr. balsell Charge, that Hla Opponent
Accepted RepaMtran Campaign
- , Fends and . Cockrnn ' Denies .
Aecasatleau,
WASHINGTON. April 8. -The "heavy
weights" had another bout in the house to
day with Messrs. thilzell and Cockran as
th combatants. Th speeches were a re
newal of last Saturday' debate, but. were
more personal in character. As on Satur
day the speakers wer greeted with vocifer
ous applause) by their respective colleagues,
and the bitterness of party feeling ran
high.
Jtfr. Dalzell had Mr. Cockran on the rack
for nearly two hours, during which time he
dealt largely with that gentleman's political
history, which he said showed him to have
been consecutively a greenbacker, a sound
money man and a free silver man.
He reverted to bis statement of last Sat
urday that be had been Informed that Mr.
Cockran had accepted money to support .the
campaign of McKInley and read Items from
several newspapers to show that that was
the general Impression at the time. A man,
he said, who would not have replied to Mr.
Cocaran as he did on Saturday would have
been a poltroon and a coward.
Mr, Dalzell closed amid wild republican
applause with a most bitter denunciation
of Mr. Cockran. He referred to that gen
tleman's speech before th democratic con
vention which sent him to congress, in
which Mr. Cockran said:
"We have reached a point where the
country la regarded as an international
hoodlum." :
Wnrni One for Cockran.
Facing the democratic side and looking
directly at Mr. Cockran, Mr. Dalzell de
clared that that utterance was of as much
Interest to them as It was to himself. "If
there, be any hoodlums amongst us," he
aid, epeakirie; with much vehemence,
"they are not the product of American
Mil, American Institutions or American
civilisation." He wa. Interrupted with
loud and prolonged republican applause.
Continuing he said: ' '
They are to be found rather amongst
those adventurers who. havlnar left their
.own country for their country's good, find
in me neius oi American polities proline
source of notoriety, men who without con
science and without conviction, find an op
portunity now with one party, now with
another, to find a market for their peculiar
wares, among which is not respectability.
- He took hla seat amid another' storm of
republican -applause. .
Mr. Cockran, thoroughly Indignant at
times, denied the accusation of Mr. Dalsell,
whom he arraigned for making statement,
which could not be substantiated. If what
Mr. Dalzell had said were true, he declared,
ha was unworthy of membership.
In emphatlo and positive language Mr.
Cockran denied that he had received money
from th Palmer and , Buckner campaign
committee or that he had ever received
money for Supporting McKInley in 18W. If
Mr. Dalzell, he said, believed the charges
against him it was nothing but a confes
sion of the republican party's corruption
and proof that the presidential election had
been purchased.
The climax came when he offered a reso
lution providing for the appointment of a
select committee of five members of ths
house to Investigate the charge which had
been made against him by Mr. Dalzell. H
and other democrats. Including Mr. .Wil
liams, the minority leader, demanded im
mediate consideration, but the speaker de
clined to pass on a point of order against
the resolution until he had examined prece
dents. MILITARY APPROPRIATION BILL
Senate Resumes Consideration of the
Academy Measure,
WASHINGTON. April 26.-After passing
the bill for tha establishment of an assay
office at Portland, ore., the senate today
resumed consideration of th military
academy appropriation bill. Mr. Hale's
point of order against the provision for
the reorganization of the medical and ord
nance departments was taken up, and Mr.
Warren continued hla explanation of ths
amendment.
Mr. McCreary mad a point of order
against the amendment, making an ap
propriation for ' the establishment of a
permanent army camp grounds In ths
states of Texas, Pennsylvania, Wisconsin
and California.
Mr. Frye descended from the chair and In
a colloquoy with Mr. Blackburn, who held
the floor, announced his conviction that
the camp site amendment clearly was not
germane.
Mr. Blackburn asserted that th Improve
ment of the four' site in the end would
cost the government not less than t2S.000.000
or S30.000.000. ' Ths bin was passed.
Mr. Bacon then proceeded with the tariff
Speech begun by him yesterday. Mr. Bacon
said he did not expect to see a new tariff
In the United States for many years, first,
because the revenue necessities of the
country render It impossible, and. secondly,
because the business affairs of the country
are so adjusted as to make It Impracticable.
The senate then, at 6 p. m., took a recess
until 10 o'clock tomorrow. "
