\Vashington, D. C., Jan. .5.—VVhen
the Senate went into executive session
yesterday the peace treaty, which had
just been received from the president,
was laid before the Senate by Sena—
tor Frye, who occupied the chair in
the .ctbsence of the vice president.
The treaty was not read, but the
president’s message accompanying it
was. Itwas a Simple letter of trans-
missal, without a. word or recommen—
dation 'or suggestion, and was only a
few lines in length.
On motion of Senator Davis the trea-
ty was referred to the committee on
foreign relations and ordered printed
for the use of the Senate.
No order was made looking to mak-
ing the treaty public, but it is under-
stood .hat this‘ will be done after the
tieaty is passed upon by the commit-
tee.
Senator Davis moved to make the
treaty and the proceedings of the
commission public, but finally with-
drew the motion to allow the commit-
tee to act upon it.
The committee on Friday, will proba-
bly decide to publish both the treaty
and the proceedings.

In the Senate.
Washington, D. C., Jan. 5.—The first
session of the Senate after the holiday
recess occupied only fourteen minutes,
although in that brief time two open
sessions and an executive session were
held.
In the absence of the vice president,
Mr. Frye of Maine, the president pro
tem., called the Senate to order.
A touching reference was made by
the chaplain in his invocation to the
death of Senator Morrill.
Mr. Frye, who was in the chair, rec-
ognized Major Pruden, assistant Secre-
tary to the president, who presented a
message from the president of the Uni-
ted States, containing the treaty of
Paris.
On motion of Mr. Davis the Senate
went into executive session, so the
treaty might be referred to the com-
mittee on foreign relations.
In a few minutes the Senate recon-
vened in open session.
Mr. Allison announced the death of
Senator Morrill and presented the usu-
al resolution, which was adopted.
Mr. Allison presented another resolu-
tion providing as a further mark of
respect that the Senate adjourn.
This was adopted, and the Senate at
12.15 adjourned.

SPAlN ENJOY?) lLOlLO AFFAIR
A1neric.1ns Vianted Hasty Evacuation and
Got It.
Madiid, Jan. 5. —The statement that
the Spaniaids c1aeu~ated iloilo in order
to render thesituatio‘n more difficult
for the Americans is positively denied
here.
The Spanish government, immedi-
ately after the signing of the treaty
of peace, ordered the Philippines to be
evacuated as quickly as possible, in
order to avoid further bloodshed and
“conform with the expressed wish of
the Americans, who were very exact-
ing, especially ,in the case of the is-
land of Cuba’
An interview with an (ax-prefect of
a province of the Philippines is pub-
lished here, during the course of which
he is quoted as saying:
“President McKinley has shown
complete ignorance of the situation in
the Philippines. Whe'n the Americans
occupied Manila there were only four
insurgent provinces. The Americans
encouraged the rebellion, and now they
are themselves the victims of the sup.
port which they gave the insurgents,
who have become masters of the en-
tire archipelago, except 'Mi'ndanao,
where the natives, who are Mussul—
mans, have refused to recognize Amer—
ican rule, although they have not re—
volted.
“Ag‘uinaldo’s unpopularity is due to
his friendship for the Americans. His
treatment of Spanish prisoners has
been horrible. .
“Monks have been marched through
the streets, led by cords attached to
rings through their noses. and others
have been employed literally as beasts
of burden, while a thousand have died
of ill treatment."
Hale l’wnominatcd ill Maine.
Augusta. =‘1Ic., Jan. 5 —-The geneial
Republican caucus of the Maine leg-
islature last evening unanimously no—
minated Eugene Hale for re—election to
the United States Senate.
In the course of a speech thankingr
the caucus for the nomination, Senator
Hale referred in eloquent terms to his
brother members of the Maine delta-
tion, and especially to Speaker Reed.
Of Mr. Dingley he said:
“There is no man in Congress who,
if he shall be taken by calamity from
us, will be so much missed by the in-
terests of the state and the party and
the nation as Nelson Dingley."
Of his. association with Senator Frye.
Mr. Hale said:
“We agree sometimes to disagree,
for we are not soft-mouthed men who
refuse to proclaim our opinions and
who go into holes and conceal them.
From the day of Mellen and Sprague
and of Evans and Williams and ,Brad—
bury and Fairfield and Hamlin and
Fessenden and Merrill and Blaine (ap-
plause) Maine‘s representatives-in the
United States Senate have never been
afraid to spea ktheir minds and to
have opinions.

Dover, Del., Jan. 5.—-The two Repub-
lican factions of the House of Repre-
