on the army bill and last night thirteen
OF the twenty pages had been completed.

president discretionary power to reduce
the size of the infantry companies and
cavalry troops to sixty men each were
adopted. Much of the time was occupied

the Philippines and there were several
lively personal controversies The
house met today at IL a m. and what
ever time remains before o'clock after

denounced what he termed the attempt
to befog the issue and place the oppo-
nents of the bill in a false position. He
was willing to vote for bill to reorgan-
ize the army. but he was unwilling to
vote for an army Of 100000 which he
firmly believed was to be used when
congress adjourned to annex foreign
territory and foist upon the country
and posterity a colonial policy. Clark

Document That Will Meet the Ls.te of Oth-
ers, BE DipIoma aticalIy IsSs.rcd.
Washington, Jan, 81. - Sixto Lopez,
secretary to AgonSillo. the Philippine
representative here, called at the ctate
department about p. m. yesterday and
left with the chief clerk another COM
munication addressed to the secretary
of state, protesting against the attitude
of our government towards the Filipino
republic The terms of the protest
do not go as far as an ultimatum. The
same fate awaits this communication
as that which bAfell it's predecessors
it will be automatically ignored. Ac-
companyiRg the Communication is a
long memorial addressed to the senate
containing a comprehensive argument
in opposition to the ratification of the
treaty, and which the envoy asks the
president to send to that body. The
letter of transmittah contains more than
the mere request, but Agoncillo feels
that he is bound by courtesy not to
make it public until an opportunity is
had by the state DEF artment officials to
make a reply.
The memorial to the senate is a long
document both historical and argu-
mentative in character and is a protest
that this governmeht has no jurisdic-
ton, natural or acquired. through any
of Its agencies. to- adjudicate in any
manner upon the rights of the Philip
pine country and its people. He refers
to the historical fact that a large
number OF my countrymen have never
been subdued by r3nish power, and as
against their liberties the oppressive
arm of Spain has never been able to
sustain itself; that tae remainder, be-
cause of their adhesion TO the cause of
liberty, have been In almost constant
insurrection against the government of
Spain; these conflicts existing continu-
ously with greater or less fury for the
past 100 wears" A&
The impression, he continues, has been
created in America that at the time OF
the declaration of war between Amer
lea and Spain the Philippine revolu-
ton no longer existed. He quotes from
communications from Consul General
Williams at Manila and Mr.. Pratt. as
result of which Agoncillo says that
without additional authority it must
be evident to your honorable body that
an extensive revolution existed in the
Philippine islands at the time of the
declaration of war by America against
SPAIN" The purpose of the Filipino
patriots in conducting this revolution
was, il is asserted, to secure the COM
plete independence of their country, and
in this effort they received the en-
of the United States and
were never informed that the obtaining
and preservation of such independence
would be regarded as a hostile act by
America, and they never believed that
their struggle in such a cause would
lead to enormous aggregations of Amer
lean armies and navies at their doors.
Additional historical facts are pre-
sented- Bearing on the discussion Of
the question whether the American
government can acquire right to the
