WASHINGTON LETTER
Many Anti-imperialistic
Speeches This Week.
THE HULL BILL
Senator on the Election of
Senators Popular Vote
General Miles and Secre
tary Alger.
(From Oiur Regular Correspondent.)
WASHINGTON, Jan. 30.-Anti-Im-perialistic
sentiment will have full
swing In the Senate this week, as
nearly every Senator who opposes and
who has not already spoken against
Imperialism has given notice of in
tention to speak. The treaty of peace
will be voted upon February 6, and the
chances favor its ratification, because
nothing would be gained by rejecting
it. A motion to reconsider would be
made by one of its friends, and it
would require a majority to table it.
That majority its opponents have not.
So, if it were rejected February 6. all
Mr. McKlnley would have to do would
be to call an extra session of the Sen
ate, in March, when It would be
promptly ratified.
Within the last week Mr. McKinley
has been personally harshly criticised
in both House and Senate, and in each
body one of his critics was a Republi
can. In the House, Representatives
Jerry Simpson and Johnson of Indiana
jumped on him for bowing to public
opinion, right or wrong; and In the
Senate. Senators Gorman and Hoar
gave him fits for declining to furnish
the Senate with copies of the Instruc
tions given to the Peace Commission
ers. The attempt of the Republicans to
get Democratic support for the Hull
bill, which will be voted upon tomor
row, by amending it so as to make any
Increast of the regular army above
50,000 discretionary with the President,
was not a success. It made no real
change. The Democrats proved by
their voles for the first war appropria
tion that they were not afraid to trust
the President, but that did no change
the principle of the party against the
concentration of authority in the hands
of one man. Such concentration does
no harm as long as the right man ex
ercises the authority, but who can say
when the wrong man will come along?
The change was not made for effect
in the House, where partisanship will
put the bill through, but in the Senate,
where its late will be very much in
doubt, unless the support of Senators,
who are now inclined to oppose it. can
be secured. The subterruge was so
palpable that Representative Loud of
California, a Republican, made a hot
speech against it, plainly telling his
party associates that they could not
hope to catch suckers with such a bare
honk.
General Miles is still piling up evi
dence, official and unofficial, that the
beef furnished our soldiers in Cuba and
Porto Rico was unfit to eat. He has
already about convinced everybody, ex
cept the members of the administra
tion, and of the War Investigating
Commission, that his charge was true,
but they seem dtermined to stick to it
that the beef was good.
Secretary Alger put another slight
upon General Miles in connection with
the finding of the Eagan court-martial.
The army regulations provide that the
finding of a court-martial shall be for
warded to the Secretary of War
through the commanding general of
the army, but Alger instructed the
Judge Advocate to ignore Miles and
hand the finding to him directly, and
it wa3 done. While nobody outside the
court and officials can swear what the
verdict was, everybody Is certain that
it was "Guilty," and that the sentence
was dismissal from the army. In han
dling this verdict, Mr. McKinley would
better be careful or Tie will sign his
own political death warrant. The peo
ple have decided that Eagan should be
punished, and if Mr. McKinley exer
cises his authority to shield him. he
will find that lie may have the pun
ishment to bear himself.
Senator Butler, in presenting a reso
lution of the North Carolina Legisla
ture for the election of Senators, by
vote of the people, called attention to
this being the twenty-fourth Legisla
ture to adopt such a resolution, and
said that a constitutional amendment
ought to be at once adopted, citing
the several existing deadlocks and
scandals In legislatures as an argu
ment !n its favor.
MARRIED.
At th residence of the bride's father,
on Sout'SjflfcDowel! street, Mis "Laura
E. BrockWell and Mr. W, C reel were
married Saturday evening1. The cere
mony was solemnised by Rev. Dr. M.
M. Marshall, of Christ Church.

wishes of tkelr many friends.
