They grew more and more aggressive and Gen. Wood finally sent an expedition against them. Tho bloody engagements between Nov. 32 and IB resulted and the Moros were scattered, according to Gen. Wool's report.Report Afterward DeniedThis version of the Immediate cause of the trouble wns subsequently denied and It wns to got at the facts that Gon. Wade went to Jolo. His report has not yet reached the War Department.There wns nothing in the note of transmittal of Gen. Wood’s nomination today to Indicate the President's conclusion -that It was n rccc«ss appointment but Secretary Hoot explained that nil ware to be regarded as recess appointments.Secretary Root Immediately Instructed Paymaster-General -Bates, of the army, to make a test case of tih* first voucher received for Increased pay due to the promotions made to-lt;fr.\y He will forward It to Comptroller Trteewell. of the Treasury, with a request for a ruling whether the appointment can be classed as a recess appointment or not.A large number of the Senators, Including Mr. AM Ison and all the older members, declare there was no recess, and no appointments could be made on that theorj'. Senator Lodge Is almost alone In this position.Many Senators Disapprove.Many Senators are unable to conceal their disapproval of the President's course. The breach between the Presl dent and the Senate has been materially widened by the .baJr-splIttlng methods employed to maintain Leonard Wood's rank «s Major-General. A number of Senators this afternoon privately expressed their dissatisfaction with the Presidrsnt's course.To-night the angry muttering* have become no loud that the Senate may decide to rehnbe the President by rejecting file entire 1«7 nominations made under hi* con-ntrnction of a theoretical rcccan.No party lines are manifested, Republicans and Democrats alike agreeing that the President has treated ttic Senate .with discourtesy. Th-'u feeling of indignation may prove mono effective than all the allegations of corrup-Gon, Insubordination and misconduct yet brought againet Wood.The Prerfdem immediately noblfle:* the officers affected Qf their ap: roent and new commissions were 1s-OlhP-ciGto■lie01clniDJeinLhloiIclD«while Indorsing'him.t jam i an dor I.uelon Voting, of the us.vy, who wns Captain of Lho Port at Hamna during part of Wood s administration, testified at some length.
