senator Lodge declared It would be a
great mistake at this time TO undertake
any far-reachlng legislation dealing with
the Philippines The president. he said,
should he authorized to control the is
lands, and our position should be clearly
defined. He deprecated making party
issue OF the Philippines.
Said he:
The policy we offer l. simple and
straigh,forward. We accept the fact that
the Philippine islands are ours today, and
that we are responsible for them before the
world. The next tact u that mere Is =
in hiding and with no semblance or
government has degenerated into mere
guerrilla warfare and orlgandage. our
immediate duty therefore, Is 10 suppress
these disorders, put an end TO the fight
ing and restore peace and order Beyond
this we ought not TO go by legislative
act except to make such provision that
there MAY be no delay IN re-esta6lshing
civil government when the war ends"

LODGE ON THE PHILIPPINES.

SPEECH.
Keen Interest i'm His Utterances, as
He Had studied the whole Mat
ter Closely. and Expectation Was
Not disappointed by His Rema rks

WASHINGTON, March 1.-The senate
seldom accords to any of its members
greater compliment than IL gave today
to Mr.. Lodge, of Massachusetts. The an
nouneement that he would deliver
speech on the Philippine question drew
to the senate every senator now in the
city. and to the galleries an unusually
large number of auditors.
Throughout the delivery OF the speech,
despite the fact that IT consumed three
hours, the Massachusetts, senator was
given close attention. Keen interest was
aroused in the utterances, not only be-
cause Of the oratorical ability OF Lodge.
but also because, as chairman of the COM
mittee on foreign relations who had stud
led the Philippine question extensively.
he was expected TO present notable ad-
dition TO the literature on the great
problem which now confronts the coun-
Try. Neither his colleagues In the senate
nor his other auditors were disappointed
in his address. When he had concluded
he was overwhelmed with congratulations
from both sides OF the chamber.
Soon after Lodge had concluded the sem
ate adjourned out of respect to the MEM
DRY of the late Representative Harmer, OF
Pennsylvania.
