WASHINGTON. June 30. Hot words
passed between Bailey and Beveridge
on the floor of the Senate today, and
after adjournment were followed by a
physical assault by the Texas Senator
on the' Senator from Indiana. Bailey
criticised the State Department for Its
handling of the case of an American
citizen. Dr. Scott, and reflected on the
competency of Judge .Penfleld, Solici
tor of thejDepartment. Beveridge char
acterized the words of, the Texas Sena
tor as an "unwarranted attack."
This characterisation Bailey regard
ed as an Insult, and demanded that the
Indiana Senator withdraw his words?
Beveridge declined ; to withdraw them
until. Bailey first withdrew his lan
guage In respect to Solicitor ..Penfield,
although he disclaimed any intention
of insulting Bailey, The trouble .grew
out of a resolution offered by Bailey,
calling for the papers in the' Mexican
mining case. : in which he maintained
Dr. Scott had been unfairly treated, not
only by the' Mexican courts . but also
by the American Ambassador, Clayton,
and the officials of tKS State Depart
ment. Bailey declared that Minister
Clayton was, either: Incompetent or dis
honest, and his remarks led to .some
tart rejoinders. , : . ' ' ' ;- ,
Early in the ssion, Elklns delivered
an earnest srcech tn favor of annexa
tion of Cuba, maintaining that It would
be In the' best Interests of both coun
tries. Elklns' remarks drew a sharp
fire from Piatt and Hanna, who depre
rated any,; annexation proposition at
this time, and urged, that the United
States ought to be sensible of its obli
gations to the civilised world. If not to
Cuba.; After a lively colloquy In! which
General Wood v as criticised by infer
ence, for using Cuban funds to advance
the reciprocity propagande,Elkins re so
iutlon for annexation was referred to
the Cuban Relations Committee. -
A Vicious Attack.
Washington, June 30 -Senator Bailey
of Texas, assaulted Senator Beveridge,
of Indiana, tonigtvt. .Bailey was very
angry, the result, of a heated contro
versy," which the. two Sena tors. had
during the afternoon, when Beveridge
had said that Bailey had made an "un
warranted attack" on Solicitor Pen
field of the State Department.
s" In the executive session Beveridge
lighted-a cigar.-and took a seat on the
Republican: side.. . Bailey - walked
through the alslei until he faced Bev
eridge and said: -. ' -;r
TJeverldge. I don't want to have any
trouble with you, but' I want you fo
withdraw those words which charged
met with making an unwarranted at
tack on Penfleld." ' v;.-.
T did not intend o lnsull you." re
plied Beveridge, "and there isxno'thing
in my language that you could consider
offensive." . . I' y ; x :
1 don't allow any one to say that I
libel a man." answered Bailey, - "and
that 1s what you do tn making ' the
charge." Now If you won't withdraw
the words when I ask you, I'm going to
tnakeyotl withdraw them."' ,
Bailey threw himself upon Beveridge
and seized hint by the throat wKh both
hands. Hansbrough seized Bailey by
one arm and Spooner seised the other.
The Texas Senator Is a powerful man,
and it was with great difficulty that the
two -Senators were able to drag him
away from 'Beveridge,. iVrx
Bacon, of Georgia, sand Barney. Lay-
ton," the doorkeeper, came quickly for
ward and assisted in pulling the. Texas
Senator away, 'Bailey was heard to
utter something like a threat about
killing Beveridge. However, be walk
ed away. Beveridge remarked to those
who had spoken to him on the subject
that it did not amount to anything.
