AND NOT THROUGH YET He Would Not Hare Voted to Ratify Spanish Treaty If It Had Involved Permanent Domination of the Phil ippinesSenate Calls for Information Regarding Situation in the Islands Proceedings In the House. Washington, May 22.-Rev. Oliver Johnson of Leslie, S. C, pronounced the invocation at the opening of today's ses sion of the Senate. Mr. Wellington of Maryland presented the resolution adopted by the meeting held in this city Sunday evening last to welcome the , envoys - from the South African republics. He gave notice that le would submit some remarks upon the subject next Monday. The Senate agreed to a further conference on the Arluy Appropriation bill and Senators Hawley, Carter and Co'ckrell were ap pointed as conferees. t Mr, Allen offered a resolution request ing the President to transmit to the Senate translations of the constitutions of the South African republic and Orange Free State, The resolution was adopted. The resolution introduced" yesterday by Mi Kenney of Delaware, calling upon the Secretary of War for certain information regarding the situation of our affairs in the A'hilippines and the military operations in those islands, was laid before the Senate. Mr. Kenney argued in favor of its adoption. Mr. Lodge of Massachusetts did not object to the resolution, but he objected to the preamble, and believed the reso lution might better go to the Committee on Military Affairs. N After some colloquy a similar resolu tion, introduced by Mr. Allen and re ported favorably from the Committee on Military Affairs, was substituted for Mr. Kenney's i-esolution, and after being slightly amended was passed. The resolution of Mr. Jones of Arkan sas, directing the Secretary of War to make a thorough investigation of the operations of the North American Trust Company in Havana its organization and its relations to this government, was la'id before the Senate and adopted.-. .Shortly after 2 o'clock the Spooner. bill, giving j the President authority to pro vide government for the Philippines, was - taken tint, v -- - -- - - y--- ..- Mr. Pettigrew gave notice of a substi tute which provides for the cessation of hostilities and negotiations for the es tr.blishment of an, independent govern ment in the Philippines. , - v' Mr. Spooner of Wisconsin then took the floor to speak on the bill. Mr. Spooner agreed with much of the speech of Senator Lodge, but he was less radi cal. If there had been no war with Spain a treaty transferring the Philip pines to the united fetates would scarce ly have received a vote in the Senate, he held. The trusteeship under God would not have been accepted. Wo would .have said our first duty was to our own people. , There was no lust of empire among us, he contended, nor is there now m the sense it is often used Mr. Spooner said that on request of Admiral Dewey, after the battle of Manila Bay, troops were sent to Manila Bay. They were not sent there to aid Dewey to hold, his position, but to cap ture and hold Manila. No protests were made against sending troops. - We held Manila Bay when- the .treaty of Paris was made. . . - Speaking of " the treaty, he said there was a time when he was opposed to it. but he would now say that with all the facts before him he could not see how the President could do anvthinjr more than demand-the cession of the Philip pines. Ihe sentiment pervaded the entire people of the country that the Philip pines could not be left with Spaiiv To illustrate this point, he referred to the "unspeakable horrors of Spanish tyranny in Cuba." He said that if the Philip pines had not been taken by. the United mates Spam-would have resumed her sway . in the islands. We would have been obliged to march our troops out of Alanila as Spain marched in. The Spanish bondholders would have Inrnished the means to carry on a wa of Spanish conquest.' We could not do as we did in Cuba, , demand a. relinquish ment of sovereignty from Spain of the Philippines. Spain could not have grant ed any such demand, even in her over throw. Mr. Spooner remarked that at the tim h voted to ratify the treaty he said that if it involved permanent domination of the Philippines he would not have voted lor it. He denied that there was any intention 'of imperialism in the Philip pines. It was a slander to 4say that wnere our nag went it meant tyranny, and was used only. in an election vear. Mr. Spooner read the order of February at, law, tor the extermination of all but Filipinos jin Manila, and asked: "Could anything be w,orse? He maintained that under these conditions no one could seriously demand . ', the withdrawal of united States troons. Me. Pettigrew questioned the authen ticity of the order, and a sharp contro versy ensued." . ; . Mr. Spooner said it came in an officia k statement from the Wak Department. Mr. Pettigrew -chareed that the docu ihent read by Mr. SiJooner was manufae tured evidence for effect in this country, Jir. opooner said it was of equal credi uiaty witn mucn that Mr. I'ettigrew ha presented. . Mr. Pettigrew in reply said that officia reports were as good evidence against iuu government, out not against Fill I'll l os. ' Mr. Spooner retorted that the 4 South Dakota Senator held that everybody was a liar who produced proof against the insertions which he (Pettigrew) made against the government. Mr. Spooner contended that the President was doing his whole ;4uty in the Philippines. "If we are not engaged in a war of subjugation," asked Mr. Tillman! "what are 50,00 troops doing" there?", . v e are enforcing the authority of . the United States," replied Mr. Spooner. ' Without concluding, having' spoken four hours,? and feeling tired, Mr. Spooner yielded to a motion, and at 5:10 the Senate adjourned. A Few Kings Needed . Washington, May 22. Some routine business was transacted at the opening of the session of the House today. A Senate! bill was passed to reserve certain lands in Hawaii for cemetery purposes, j - Mr. Knox of Massachusetts, in ex plaining the bill, said: "In this cemetery the old kings and royal families of the islands lie sleeping, unconscious j that they have been an nexed to the United States." "I trust there will be no objection, on this side to i the passage of the bill," in terrupted Mr. Wheeler of Kentucky. "A few kings, dead or alive, are all that is necessary t0 complete the policy of the present administration." (Laughter.) The House then went into committee of the whole and resumed consideration of the Alaskan Civil Government bill. Without concluding the bill, the House adjourned at 5:20.

BOERS AT WHITE HOUSE Interview with the President Brief and Informal A TALK IN THE PORCH The Visitors pfot Surprised at the Presi dent's Statement. That tne United States Cannot Interfere to Stop the f War i heir Credentials Not Present- i ed and Not Likely to Be, as It Would t Intefere with Their Plans Washington, May 22. The three Boer envoys weie received by the President this morning Mr. McKinley indicated to them that the United States could do nothing to intervene, and after a quarter of an hour's conference the visitors de parted. According to the arrangements made yesterday by Secretary Hay, the envoys were klriven to the White House at JO o'clock.! They were dressed in con ventional frock coats, with silk hats. Indeed, they appeared merely as distin guished visitors, and the question of their credentials was not considered. The President was expecting them and they were shown at once into the blue room. This was considered a graceful act of attention to the envoys, as the room is usually reserTed for diplomatic callers. , There was an exchange of greetings between the pomniissioncrs and the Pres ident and hLs secretary, Mr. Cortelyou. The commonplaces of the weather and the city were discussed and then Mr. McKinley led his visitors . to the rear porch, where a beautiful view of the grounds canj be obtained. From that point the conversation turned speedily to the home! of President Kruger in the' jnui.Miiiii, uwu- in u liiuim-iiL inort uie party was discussing the subjects so near to the hearts of the visitors. Mr. McKinley explained that this coun try could dot nothing more to check the war. It had afforded the government much pleasure to offer its crood services to England iis mediator, but the prompt reply of Lord Salisbury that Great Britain was! not prepared to accept in tervention had made future action aloiig that line impossible. The announcement was not a surprise to the lioers. lhey had expected it and were prepared for it. They, discussed the war generally for a few nioments. but did not,; it is understood, make any specific request of. the President. 'After about hfteen .minutes they left for. their hotel. 1 he i 1'residont bade them . jrood bye with great cordiality and assured them of welcome whenever they. might call. V F " There was a shade of .disappointment and irony, in the voices of the commis sioners when they discussed the meeting afterward with newspaper men. "Yes, thel President received us cor dially-, said Mr. Fischer. . "And it is a fine building," said Mr. Wessels, witlun laugh,' which indicated that the inspection of the White House had proved the most profitable part of the visit. i ' f - - ' i They declined to say anything about their future: plans. .. . t , The conference with the President this morning was but a reflex of the inter view which' they had yesterday after noon with Secretary Hay. The burghers have not yet presenter! their credentials either to Secretary Hay or to. the I'resi dent. It is apparently clear to them that such a course would be useless, as this government intends to do nothing to stop the war. rsot having hied their docu mentary pajpers, the Boers are not to be classed as diplomats, and so will not be hampered in .carrying forward their public crusade in this country.

They were Iiev. Dr. D. H. Moore and Ilev. Dr. J. W. Hamilton. Both were elected on the same ballot, the seventeenth, the first and only $ne taken today. Both had handsome-ma jorities. But one more ballot was required for theirfc election than in the election of 1890. The fact that both were elected on the same ballot is unprecedented, and raises the question of seniority. The ballot which elected them resulted as follows Moore, 534: Hamilton, 510; Day, 104; Spellmeyer, 71; Neely, 41. Boxer ITprlsIng Becomes Serious , Pekin, May. 22.
