PASCO’S DEFENSE Denies That He Acted as an Agent as Charged. THE BOOK CONCERN CLAIM SCANDAL Chandler Makes a Dis- caimer, Mr. HAWAIIAN DEBATE ON ——__-+—__— Rev. Dr. Frank M, Bristol of this city pronounced the invocation at the opening of the Senate today. A bill reported from the military affairs committee by Mr. Hawley (Conn.) provid- ing that advertisements for supplies needed by the War Department may be in- serted in thé newspapers of this city was Passed. A bill to authorize a retired list for en- listed men and appointed petty officers of the United States navy was passed. Mr. Allison called up a jotnt resolution passed by the House yesterday appro- priating $473,151 to pay the Bering sra award. The resolution was agreed to. A bill was passed authorizing the Presi- dent to nominate Lieutenant Commander R. M. G. Brown, now on the retired list, to be a eommander: on the retired list. Lieutenant Commander Brown was one of the heroes of the Samecan disaster. Mr. Lodg3’s resolution directing claims committee to inquire into the dispo- sition made of the money paid to the M. E. Church South for its book concern claim was laid before the Senate, and Mr. Pasco Fla.) took the floor. Mr. Morgan (Ala.) did not approve of the resolution, although he proposed to vot for it. In a serious tone he discussed the reso- lution in all of its phases, in the course of which he said that only today he had ben informed that a claim of $388,000 paid re- cently by Congress to the estate of John Roach had been lobbied through Congress and that the lobbyist had received 50 per cent of the monay. HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES. Referring to this as flag day, the chap- lain of the House today prayed that the Influence of the flag upon the children might be beneficent to the end of increased strength and glory for the country. A few private bills were disposed of and the Hawailan debate proceeded. Mr. Gros- venor (Ohio) was recognized first. His remarks will be found in another column. Mr. Richardson's Argument. Mr. Richardson (Tenn.) followed in op- position to the pending measure, laying down the general proposition that only self interest should be considered in com- templating any step affecting the govern- ment, and from that point of view alone would he treat annexation. He said the proposition involved’ ‘gritve questions of constitutiondlity, and, ‘aside from that, it involved a wide departure from a long es- tablished policy laid @éwh by Washington and other founders of thé republic. After reviewing the composition of the “Hawaiian population Mr. Richardson dis- cussed the question ‘of the disposition of the islands, and referred’ to the faet that friends of annexation had admitted can- didly they had no fixed plan of government, saying that was a prpblem to be solved af- ter annexation was accomplished. “The gentleman from Ohio, Mr. Grosve- nor,” interjected Mr. JoKnson (Ind.), who was an attentive listener,’ “said just a day or so ago, ‘I scorn to sayshow they will be governed,’ and that is the kind of states- men who are urging’ blindly this proposi- tion. They don't see before their noses.” Concluding, Mr. Richardson spoke of the probable injury to American labor that woull! be infilcted by ginexation’ due to resulting competition. Mr. Cochran (Mo.), in a speech replete with comparisons with policies of the coun- tries of Europe, argued in advocacy of colonization, not of conquest. If coloniza- tion is of itself a viee, he asked, why Is it that Great Britain, stretching out {n col- onfes to all sections of the earth, today ex- ercises such transcendent influence in all coneerns of the race? Conditions long ago did not seem io de- rand annexation, Lut they are far differ- ent now, and if net accomplished before the treaty of peace with Spain the issue will confront us after and always until the issue !s met. Fallure to annex these islands, Mr. Cochran said, would be to ite war, for in five years left to the present condition of population the gov- ernment of Hawaii would evolutionized and jn five years the country given over to pagan control. ‘The Philippine Islands formed an entirely different proposition, and he protested vig- orously against the foisting of that prop- osition at this time to strangle a righteous issue. Mr. Pearce (Mo.) disputed the contention that Hawaiian annexation marked the be- ginning of a policy of colonization contem- plated by this country anywhere. He an- nounced that if the question were brought up in Congress he would vote for a terri- torial government there. en IGROWING DESPERATE a Opponents of Hawaiian Annexation Organizing to Filibuster. ba Sisaioe ed The opposition to Hawaiian annexation is being organized for a prolonged filibuster in the Senate. The certainty that the res- olutions will be adopted in the House to- morow by a large majority, and that it will be impossible to prevent the question being taken up “by the Senate drives them to desperate measures, They recognize that they are defeated; that the annexation of Hawaii cannot be prevented, but they want to make it as dif- ficult as possible. This will be gratifying to the sugar trust. Mr. Oxward is most active in the lobby of the Senate, having transferred his efferts from the House, and assistance is being rendered by the dark- skinned representatives of ex-queen “Lil.” “To Put the President in a Hole.” Having concluded that they cannot pre- vent annexation, they now give it out that they will block action so that the Presidént may take the shana eff cuane of Con- b---9 mw me Sees it” want to “put the President in a hole,” and do all sorts of dreadful things, which men who have been defeated sometjmesythreaten. - As it stands now ne ‘question is not whether Hawali shale annexed, but sim- ply whether the annexation shall be by un executive act supported by the action of the House and the sentiment of the Sen- ate, or whether it shall be by legislative enactment of both houses of Congress. Pititully De, ded. ‘The opposition has\Yecofne degraded to a spiteful effort to coi the adoption of an unsatisfactory ‘method of accomplish- ing that which they cannot prevent. They have not even the poor pretense of a hope that they may defeat annexation or even imerease by a single vote the opposi- Senator Frye proposes to press the resolu- tions im the Senate as soon as they are acted on by the House. The effort to adjourn, on them will fall, and there is an abundant vote for their consideration over everything else. ‘Two-Thirds Favor Annexation, the | = 7] A Shoe Sale Without Parallel!
