THE POLICY OF sNATCHING.
Coils p. Huntington Explains his Idea
of Expansion.
TAKE EVERYTHING IN SIGHT.


San Francisco, April 19-The
Union League Club was the scene of
breakfast party remarkable for the
wealth OF those present and for the
learning of others. but for the frank
ness with which the speakers treated
some of the important questions of
the day it has never been equaled.
Among those present were D. o.
Mills, b. 2. Huntington, Prof David
Starr Jordan, Prof Joseph LeOomte
and Rabbi Jacob Voorsanger
At the conclusion of breakfast
Prof. LeComte opened discussion
Ia eloquent seriousness the aged
scholar argued against the theory of
Americas expansion. There was
something more in American ideals
than commerce and commercial sue
cess, and that American statesmen
would realize this before it was too
late.
Prof. Jordan of Stamford follow.
ed LeComte Jordan argued against
expansion.
G. P. Huntington was in a pleas
ant mood More than that, he was
candid. He assured his hearers that
he never did anything for his health.
Huntington announced himself as
emphatically in favor of expansion
and American possession of the
Philippines. He said that Ia two or
three years ne would be building
railroads in the Philippines. The
railroad magnates spoke from notes.
"Gentlemen," he said, II believe
that expansion is good thing for
the commercial interests of this
country. / believe in snatching
everything in sight. That has been
my motto for number of years and
I find that it pays better than CON
servatism. Expansion would help
California and especially San Fran
cisco. I might mention that in two
or three years, if everything turns
out all right, the Southern Pacific
company will be building railroads
in the Philippines. You are aware
perhaps, that we never do anything
S for our health.

want to and caricature the raw worl
: of your Uncle Coils as they please
