No plan of this sort has been adopted in

that men be mustered GU, on personal ap-
plica;ion, where their places can be filled
with recruits, and the reason for the muster
out IS generally agreed on.
Senator Sewall, speaking Of peace nego-
tiat.ons, said that is was well known that
he earnestly opposed the retention of the
Philippines on the ground that they would
be an almost endless source of annoyance.
The reten5i 5ion of these Islands, he said
would involve the maintenance of large
standing army and large navy, and the
character of the population was such tina
we would have consequent difficulty in try
ing to govern them. He said that we had
had trouble enough with the few Indians
we had to deal with IN this country, ant
that we could judge from that the difficulty
we would find IN governing ten million peo-
pie of savage race, comparatively small
portion Of whom were civilized.
