Washington, May 2.~ Tne president lias sent, to the se.nnte the name of Thomas Nash, ot Nt w Jersey, to suc ceed Perry M. De Leon, of Georgia, as United States consul general at Gpayqml. Ecuador). Ibis, was ac companied by the announcement at the state department that. Mr. De Leon had “resigned.” The change came as a surprise because of the .'repeated announcements fi(om the state department that Mr. De I .eon was simply coming home on a leave. He is in New York and has not had an oportunity of fully explaining his side of the trouble in Ecuador which nave led to i.is re.-all. It is understood, however, that the recall was at, the the Ec uadorian government, with which Mr. De Leom bail become persona non grata because of nis action in behalf cf the Central American,citizens Who he believed, were being imposed upon by- tin.- officials of the iota, govern ment.. it seems to he nothing else than a case of tring made to suffer for his stenuous Americanism. The tact tthat, a consular officer pronounc ed by the government to which he is assigned persona non grata almost inevitably brings his recall. Child Badly Hurt.

Chairman llepburn has set March U.’ for beginning; hearings on the bill, and the ooimnlHee will listen to those who are in favor of it. He says lie wants men to appear who can say why they want the. bill and show it a sons why various bureaus ? hon'd ho transferred to such a dt p. laine Senator Nelson of Minnesoin, the au thor of the bill, lias already put in print a number of reason;; why sneli a department should bo created, and these views will bo the basis of the arguments by those win favor i(.

Rights of Conererf men. Tor the next forty days there will he “moot” discussions ;.s to whether the senate or the lam • can or \-iinot deprive members of the i*i lit to vole. All manner of suppos*hms ras; s an* set up to prove vm' mp- m? a -as, while there hm been a r-eareb f r precedents which has ,‘lialo a the dust from old voidin' sof the library. .' r..:i meats as to expulsion, surp n: ‘o < .ir rest. ete,. have been made without limit, and those men wii ; a.v upp > .<1 to know the history of | j lia. n;ai y law lane been called up .n io eonlrib ute their share to the sympv sn: 1 :-.

Mr. Hinds has found that differ ent speakers have had dilTerent opin ions as to the voting right of m-mi'-'is under arrest. Some held thet th.ey could not be deprived of Hail ri-. lit, and others that urn-si; and lm mN rs j r- s eut in custody of the ; cant at arias could not vote. Mr. McDonald's parlia mentary judgment was that senators present in th • chan !.<t could no! he prevented from voting. Anent the Daniels Appointment. Senators have had a good deal of quiet fun first and last at the expense of the president over the appointment of I*en Daniels to be marshal of Ari zona. It was at a dinner where jokes were being east around that Senator Hanna said. “Mr. President. Scott | West Virginia senator 1 has found your standard.” “How's that?’ ashed the president. “Why.” responded Han na. “Seoit says every time he went to see you about an appointment you told hi in .sou would appoint any one he would recommend, but tin* man must i be up to your ‘standard.’ Now. be says be Jims found it." Everybody was all attention, and Hanna continued. “Scott says it’s Hen Daniels.*' K very body laughed and none more heartily than the president. Senator Scott never takes any one to the White House now that the president does not tell the “standard" story. It is also told that Senator Hoar, who investigated the case of Daniels when his nomination was before the senate, found that the charge that Daniels had run a faro bank was not true, and shortly after Daniels appeared before the committee and acknowledged that he lmd been ft faro dealer. Members of the committee tell this on Mr. Hoar. Capitol Notes. Occasionally the absence of a sena tor is noted, and if it is for any length of time while there are matters of in terest going forward in tin* senate it may be guessed that “home fences’* are in need of repair. Representative Shafroth of Colorado ; is seen quite frequently about the sen ate, but it Is not because he is trying to become a senator or is a candidate. He never misses an opportunity to listen to speeches by Senators Teller , and Patterson of his state, and as they have been in the debates a great deal of late his presence In the senate is ac counted for.

They conic form many places, some of them miles away, to hear the “holiness man” as they twin him. There is not a service, day or night, lmt sees Hodgin’s tent packed to its utmost limit. The scene is an al nost indescribable one, as those who make up the audience are invar iably wrought up to the pitch where uey sing, shout, jump and clap their hands for hours at a time.

TO EXCUSE THE HORRORS - REPUBLICAN SENATORS, TO DE FEND SMITH, MAKE AN ATTACK ON THE SOUTH—NATIION'S REC ORD WILL BE PAINTED RED... “RED SHIRT STORIES, THE FORT PILLOW AFFAIR AND MASSACRE OF INDIANS TO BE HURLED AT THE DEMOCRATS. Washington, May 2.—'The republi cans have executed a complete change of policy toward the Philippines gov ernment bill and instead of attempt ing to meet it with silence, have de cided to take an active hand in the debate. Smarting under the criticisms that have come from all parts of the country as the result of recent dis closures, administration leaders have concluded that they must meet the charge made and they are preparing to do so with vigor. The outlook is that next week’s debate will contain a number of sensational features. Senator - ritchard. of North Carolina was to have made the first speech on the republican side today, but it was so late when Senator Carmack concluded that he decided to a.itiress the senate tomorrow instead. To Recall Alleged Horrors. Senator Pritchard’s speech will be a defense of the administration pro gram. if ho is not stirred up, his speech will lie a calm and dispassion ate discussion, hut if the democrats show a disposition to give him trou ble, he intends to dwell at consider able length upon the alleged doings of certain "red-shitted brigades" with which ids colleague, Senator Simmons, is very familiar. Senator Lodge lias been going deeply into the history of the alleged massacre at Fort Pillow, and when the debate becomes heated a good deal will lie said by republi cans about this for Senator Carmack’s special benefit. Then there are to be references to certain Indian masacros with a view to reflecting upon Gen eral Miles, whom the republicans wi.i never forgive for forcing the publicity of the Major Gardener report. jhe republicans will utilize thpse as illus trations that human nature is very much the same and that the atroci ties in tlie Philippine islands are not the first that have occurred in Amer ican ..lstory. They have been crying out that democrats should Ik; silent concerning the actions of Jakie Smith and his army colleagues on tlie ground that such a discussion reflected upon thi! country. Their present purpose is evidently to make the record as black 'ah they can in tne hope of minimizing the offenses committed in the name of the army in the Philip pine islands. Now that the republicans have been goaded on to debate the indica tions are that the attention of the senate will he devoted to this Philip pine bill for a long time to come be cause what the democrats all the time have been after is publicity and they are sure to meet the republicans more than naif way. Aguinaldo Discussed. Aguinaldo, the Filipino leader, was the special subject, of discussion in the senate today. As soon as the Pnil ippine government bill was taken up Mr. Carmack, of Tennessee, resumed his criticism of the Puilippine com mittee, because of its refusal to call Aguinaldo and other Filipinos as wit nesses. He maintained that as re flections by witnesses had been cast upon the character of Aguinaldo, he ought to be permitted to appear before the committee to defend himself. After the Capitol Saloonist. Washington, May 2.—A warrant al leging violation of the liquor law in in selling intoxicants without a li cense was issued today against Theo L. Page, who conducts the restaurant on the senate side of of the capitol. It is alleged that the law has been violated at the capitol since January first.
