Washington. d. c.. Jan. 27.-Particu-
lar interest was manifested in the SEN
ate to-day in a brief speech delivered
by Senator II. G. Plat, of New York,
on the general subject of expansion.
Mr.. Plat took for his text the anti
expansion resolution offered by Mr..
Vest. of Missouri. but in the course of
his speech merely touched upon the
constitutional question involved in the
proposed declaration.
He spoke in q clear, resonant voice
and. not only because this was the first
speech he has delivered in the Senate
since his return to the body. but also
because the address was a thoughtful
and we'll considered statement. he was
accorded the undivided attention of his
colleagues on the floor and IL large au-
dience in the galleries.
THE PHILIPPINE PROBLEM.
Mr.. Plat took strong grounds for the
was nothing in the constitution to pre-
vent the United States from acquiring
foreign territory. Continuing, he said
The disorder now existing in the
Philippine Islands, to which Senators
who are opposing the treaty may well
afford to consider how far they are
contributing the unwillngness of the
armed natives to accept the American
authority. does not constitute, i'm my
mind. the slightest ground on which to
base n vote against the Paris agree
mcnt On the contrary, 1t affords n new
reason why our action should be the
more prompt and unanimous. No SEN
ntor has had the hardihood To suggest
that we shall now return these islands
10 the Spanish Government. and no
other disposition of them than that is
inconsistent with a vote to confirm the
treaty. 1mputation have been made
here uDon the purpose of those who
advocate the assumption by the United
States of Philippine sovereignty, which
can scarcely be genuine. All this talk
about forcing our government upon an
unwilling people. all this eloquent invo-
cation of the spirit OF the declaration
of independence. is far and away from
any real point that concerns the Senate
in this discussion. No Senator can
suppose that there exists ;.n Ameri-
can statesman who approaches the con-
sideration of the Philippine problem.
with any other than the most benevo-
lent intention concerning the Filipinos
and their future.
NO REASON FOR MISUNDER-
STANDING.
There are reasons why the natives of
these islands, after their experience
with Spanish misrule should misunder-
tand the presence at Manila of an
American army, but there is no reason
why an American Senator should mis-
understand it, and no justification OF

ARMY REORGANIZATION.

Washington. Jan. 27.-The opposition
to the Army Reorganization bill on the
Republican side of the House has be-
come so strong that to-day Chairman
Hull, after Mr.. Henderson, OF Iowa. one
of the floor leaders of the majority, had
thrcatenedc 10 vote to recommt the
bill, decided 1t would be wise in order
to insure its passage 10 abandon the
idea of providing directly for n regular
army of 100000 men. He announced on
the floor that the committee would offer
amendments to reduce the number of
enlisted men To about 5000. but lodge

Of 100 C0 These amendments have been
