connected with the sale of the New York
custom house site to the National City
Bank and to the disposition made of the
proceeds. BY the acts of bis predecessors
and the rulings of the Comptroller of the
Treasury he would show that he had a
perfect right to deposit the proceeds from
this sale in qualified government deposito-
ries and that moneys so deposited to the
credit of the treasurer of the United
States are in the treasury, Just as much
as though they were actually on deposit
in the vaults at Washington.
The legal prohibition against deposting
public funds in bank repositories secured
by government bonds, the Secretary de-
clares, applies only To customs receipts.
This statement Mr.. Gage tries to
strengthen by letters, opinions and menu
oranda showing that for thirty years the
Secretary of the Treasury has exercised
the right conferred upon him by the law
of placing any such part of public re-
ceipts, except customs, as in his discre-
ton he might deem best, with duly quail
fed government repositories.
The Secretary calls attention to the
fact that under his management the
Treasury Department has received since
June, 1898, $1,100,000, 900 and distribut-
ed it without disturbance to the anan-
cial or commercial equilibrium Of the
country. This exhibit. he says gratifies
him immensely. and he takes it as proof
that he has administered the affairs Of
the department satisfactorily.

Senator from Indiana Voices Praise of
MckinIey's Philippine Policy.
Senator Beveridge in the Senate Tues
day made his long anticipated maiden
speech sustaining the administration in
its Philippine policy Senator Bevcridge
opened his speech by the statement that
the times call for candor.1 He said the
Philippines are territory belonging to the
United States forever. The speaker ar
gued that if it proves mistake to hold
the territory the error can be corrected
when we will; every other nation stands
ready to relieve us" He went on to ar
que that the Pacific is our ocean; that
China is our national customer and the
Philippines is the door of all the east.
With long prelude as to the resources
of the islands, the climate, character of
the people and Aguinaldo, in which he
said they were "a barbaric race modified
by three centuries of contact with a de-
cadent race" the speaker began his ar
guments ON true military policy. lie
referred TO the proposed cessation of hos
tilities as "a false peace which will be-
tray us; a sham truce that will curse
US. Then he argued that in the efforts
to secure peace the mistake has been
kindness on the part of this nation. no,
he said, friendly methods have been
thoroughly tried only TO make peace more
difficult. There is not now, nor never
was. any possible course but ceaseless
operations in the field and loyal support
of the war at home
In the beginning Of his address be had
referred to the unlimited resources of the
islands and cited the fact that tSDain's
export and import with the islands unde-
yeloped was S12,175,549 annually" He
continued with the statement that the
people were ihdolent and offered no COM
petition with the labor of the United
States. Mr.. BeveridGt next branched off
into suggestions as to the plan of gov
eminent needed in the Philippines; it
should be simple and strong for in deal
