BAILEYS SENSATION
It Caused Consternation on the Re-
publican Side of the House
GAVE SWORN TESTIMONY
In Support of the Charges lie Made
Against House Employes
DRAWING SALARIES ILLEGALLY
Mr Bailey Asked for an Investigation of
the Charges
EXCUSES OFFERED BY REPUBLICANS
The Charoes Were So Emphatic How-
ever that Thev Had to Take
Notice of Them
Special to The PoslA
Wnshlngton Pebruary 21 fhe lower
house of congress had two sensations to-
day Mr Hepburn tlowa furnished tho
first one It wan In connection with the
West Point haxliig and was n fairsited
sensation Itself but It was easily out-
classed by the rhot from the Texan ion
gressman relative to the employes of the
house receiving salaries to which they were
not entitled
The consternation caused among the re-
publicans by Mr Balleyfl acciisatlonslu
support of which he offered sveru ttntl
ninny may well bo Judged by the feeble
way In which the republicans tried to parry
his thrusts Mr Cannon that veteran re-
publican tactician and diplomat could only
remark that things do seem to bo ft little
mixed Other icpubllcan leaders were
equally lacking In words to make an ef-
fective reply
A long row was stirred up In connection
with some Items for extra pay for certain
employes of the house Mr Maddox In
Mr Loud Call and others endeavored to
ascertain what extra work theso employes
bad performed In the course of tho dli
pute that followed Mr Dliiimmrc Ark
cteated n ycnsntlnn by assorting hat < ne
of the employes 1 J Constantino the
telegrapher of tho house was not gettlu
the pay of the telegrapher but that an-
other man was drawing that whIe tVn
sti Mini was drawing the pay of another
prtMlin It developed that CnnitanUno
was mi the roll ns n tenpister
MrBailey Texas charaed outftjjht
that for four yonra omployos of nlfe house
hdd been combelled io divide their sal
aiieo with those who did no work at all
If what the gentleman says is true
called out Mr Olmstead deep Pa them
lUo gentleman ought to ask for an Investi-
gation
Much good It would do In this bouse
replied Mr Balloy
Then suddenly he straightened up and de
livered another challenge
I will ask unanimous consent said
he for tho appointment of an investi-
gating committee and I agree to pro-
duce employes who will make affidavit
to the truth of the statements I have
made
Mr Bailey paused Some ono on the
other side said such a requejt could not
be mudo In committee of tho whole
Too late too late called out Mr
Sprague Bop Mass
Mr Bailey then gave notlco that as soon
aa the committee rose ho Bhould ash
unanimous consent for the Investigating
committee
Mr Bailey then pointed out that the
man who was on tho rolls as n telegrapher
but was also performing service In the II
brnry was to be the recipient under an
Item in the bill of 400 In addition tc
1200 he drew ns a telegrapher This drew
mi explanation from Mr Steele Bop
luili who suld that the gentleman In
question had come hero to take the posl
lion of telegrapher at 1000 but yielded
the position to the man then telegrapher
upon the appeal of Mr Berry Kyi
Mr Fleming Dem Oa then nunouifcefi
that until the appointment of the commit-
tee of Investigation which Mr Bailey
wnnld ash for he would object to all the
Items for extra services In the bill and
tbey went out on points of order Mr
Olmstead Pa offered an amendmcntthit
no money appropriated In the bill shone
he paid to any cadet at Annapolis or West
Point who had been guilty of a bruta
form of hazing The amendment was
adopted
This completed tho bill which was then
pnsfccib
Mr Bailey then asked unanimous consent
for the consideration of the following riso
lutlon Itesolved That tho speaker of the
house shall Immediately appoint a commit-
tee epnalktlng of Ave members not more
than three of whom shall belong to the
same political puny whose duty It shall
lie to Inquire Into the appointments of and
payments to tho employes of the house
und report all the facta relating to said
employes to tho bouse within six dayi
after Its appointment
Mr Payne the majority leader said be
did not thluk tho resolution nhould be con
eMrrcd without reference to n committee
and moved Its reference to the eommlttct
on rules He said that In his opinion the
committee would support the resolution
promptly
Mr Bailey assented to this
Then at T oclock tho house adjourned

Du wei
Bo It known to all men That the
war which has been forced upon tho
Tinnavnal republics by the British gov
crnment still rages over South Africa
thnt all the cmtoms of civilized war-
fare and also tho conventions of Ge-
neva and The Hague are not observed
by tho enemy who have not scrupled
contrnry to the tfeunvn convention to
capture doctors and nmbubmces and
deport them In order to prevent our
wounded from Setting medical nsstst
rmcc
Thnt they have seised nuibulanco ma-
terial appertaining thereto
That they htio not hesitated to have
recourse to primitive rules of warfare
contrary to the solemn agreement of
Tho Hague
To arrest neutrals nnd deport them
and to send out marauding bands to
plunder burn nnd damage burghers
prlvnto property
That they have armed Kaffirs and
natives and used them against us In the
war That they have been continually cap
turlug women and children nnd old
and sickly men ami there have been
many deaths among tho women be-
cause the socalled Christian enemy had
no consideration tor women on a side
bed or those whose state of health
should have protected them against
rntixh treatment
Honorable women and tender children
have not only been treated roughly but
bnvc been Insulted by soldiers by order
of their officers
Moreover old mothers nnd women
have been raped even wives and chil-
dren und the property of prisoners of
war even killed burghers have not
been respected
In mnny Instances the mother nnd
father have been taken the house has
been left unprotected and all have been

formed by tho enemy thnt the y UnvH

Kitchener Klerksdorp February 21
Methuens force marched here having
cleared the country through Wlmsanstnd
At Haartbcstfotiteln 1400 Boers under

obstinately but were turned out after
severe fighting In wblrh tho Yeomanry
the Victorian Bushmen and the Luma

ualties were three officers and thirteen

tlon because tho burghers blow up tho
railway lines cut tho wires and misuse
tho white flag Nearly nil tho house
lu tho republics have been destroyed
whether In tho neighborhood of the

of tho white flag Is sltuply contlmtttnco
of the everlasting calumny ngalust

Into contact with the Englishmen Hob

The republics are not couiittercd Tho

by responsible lenders as from the
commencement of tho war under tho

Tho fact of Lord Bobcrtn nnd Lord
Kitchener choosing the term ma

docs not make them such When was
the war over Perhaps after tho battles
In which Irregulars captured tho enemy
nnd totally vanquished them the burgh-
ers would be less than men It they
allowed tho enemy to go unpunished
nfter 111 treating their wives nnd de-
stroying their borfes from sheer lust ot
destruction Therefore a portion of tho
burghers resent It Cape Colony will
not ouly wngo war but will bo lu a

nlready done In tho case of ambii
lances therefore we worn the oftlcers
ot his majestja troops that unless they
cease the destruction of tho property
of the republic we shall wreak ven-
