WASHINGTON, Dec. 1S.-What the SEN
ate may accomplish in the way of legislation
for the Philippines during the present ses-
sion is problematical, but that the question
will be thoroughly discussed is indicated by
the number of resolutions bearing upon it
being introduced. In opposition to the reten-
ton by the United States of the Philippine
islands two resolutions were introduced to-
day, one by Tillman of South Carolina and
the other by Bacon of Georgia. Each reso-
lution proposes to yield the islands to a
government TO be established by the Fill
pines themselves.
Morgan of Alabama addressed the senate
briefly upon the necessity of legislation to
control trusts and had his joint resolution
