Reading of McKinley message dominates Congress week
From Our Gwen Correspondent in Washington reports the week centers on the annual executive message to Congress and the Roberts credentials case. The president’s address is described as long but weak on key issues, notably the Philippine question and the policy toward colonial rule, with criticism of its language and force. The silver question shifts to a gold standard stance and expanded Treasury bond powers, while the trust question reopens under new legal and political scrutiny. The House rejects Roberts’ credentials, prompting debate on proper procedure and potential future implications for states.
