Foraker Compelled to Recede From His Stand
Washington Jan An evident shift in sentiment toward President Roosevelt over the Brownsville affair surfaces in the Senate as Senator Foraker agrees to a compromise on his resolution for an investigation. Senator Daniel of West Virginia supports the president’s view, while Lodge objects to the broader program. The action includes a Senate Military Affairs Committee investigation and a subcommittee visit to Brownsville, funded from the Senate contingent fund. Slayden testifies on the 1906 Brownsville riot, recounting the killings and shootings by African American troops, the town’s lynching history, and debates over punishment and presidential dismissal of soldiers. The discussion highlights partisan and constitutional tensions surrounding the incident.
