What to Do About Legislation
for the Island Of Porto
Rico is the One.
FORAKER SHOWS IMPATIENEE
Tells Opponents if They Do
Not Cease He Will Intro
duce Trade Measure.

Washington. March 13.-The senate
chamber and adjoining committee
rooms yesterday were the scene of Il
conflict of opinion which found DO
place in the congressional record. The
basis of the disagreement was For
akers bill providing Il form of govern
ment for the island of Porto Rico, ana
only Republican senators participated
i'll it. The controversy grew out OF eff
forts TO have the bill amended. There
are some senators who hold that legiS-
lation for Porto Rico. for the present
at least, should he confined to provid-
ing for the immediate needs of the in
habitants of the island, and not in
Clude efforts to establish form OF
government. These senators general
ly believe that Porto Rico should re-
ceive no favors in the way of tariff
reduction, and are content to allow the
present tariff rates to continue until
there is more time and the senate is
better prepared for the diSpassionate
considerations of the question. Their
idea is to leave the island in the con-
troll of the war department.
Foraker Makes n Threat.
Foraker, representing the friends OF
the pending bill, and as chairman OF
the Porto Rican committee, met the
declaration that if il was persisted in
he would not only drop the bill now
before the senate entirely, but would
Introduce as a substitute for il a meas
ure providing for the organization OF
the island as n territory, giving it all
the officers and all the privileges and
immunitieS of such territories as Okla
homa, New Mexico and Arizona-not
only making the Porto Rican people
full-fed@ed citizens of the United
States, but establishing complete free
trade between the island and the Unit
ed States proper.
Afraid the New Measure Would Pass.
When the purpose of Foraker be-
came generally known there were
many hurried conferences among the
Republican leaders, and the Ohio sem
ator was Immediately besieged by Re-
