his houskeeper, Mrs. Levine, Mr.. whofs

Mr.. Cummings OF New York criticized
the bill on tns score that the Of ties Of the
sea coast states had been overlooked.
MIR. Cox OF Tennessee. a member Of the
military COMMITTEES concluded the gensral
dsbate on behalf OF the minority with q
twenty minutes speech against the general
principle Of Increasing the size Of the per-
nlanent army.
MIR. Hull, in closing the general debate,
declared that Mr.. MCCALL had misappre-
hended the purpose Of the bill. Tbs
President, under the treaty OF Paris,
must assert the sovereignty Of the United
States over the Philippine islands. AS
Iona as she islands were ours, we must
enforce our authority or disgrace our
selves In the eyes of the world. The peo-
pie OF the United States must decide how
long our authority there shall exist. So
far as he personally was concerned he be-
iieved tnat our sovereignty over the
Philippines would continue as long as
the republic endured.
"why do you fesk to provide for per-
manent armyf" asked Mr.. williams of
Mississippi.
"why do you not limit Its existence to
the Philippine warf"
"Becauss we desire the army OF the
United States to do whatever necessity
may require replied Mr.. Hull.
Honestly now" persisted Mr.. VIII
iiams, independently of the Philippine
question, do you not want a permanent
army OF ZOO men for other purposesf'
"No, most emphaticaliy no." answered
Mr.. Hull.
General debate was then closed and the
bin was read for amendment under the
five minute rule.
The paragraphs authorizing the score
tary of war TO prescribe regulations ms to
ftness Of volunteers or civilians APP
pointed to the regular army, under the
terms OF the bill, were stricksn out.
Mr.. Hepburn offered the following
amendments:
provided. that any vacancy In the
quartermaster' department may be filed
by appointment from civil llfe."
Mr.. Hepburn made this amendment
the basis OF some severe criticism OF the
shafter expedition before Santiago. The
scandals which existed In the quarter
masters branch OF the service on that
occasion he said, might have been obvi-
ated II competent men from civil life had
been In charge.
Mr.. Hull defended the quartermaster's
department, declaring that when the war
broke out the quartermaster's department
was inadequate TO the task as a result OF
the refusal OF Congress to do its duty
years ago.
without action upon the amedment the
House at 8. 10 p. m, adjourned.

Between Native Scouts aud Philippine

tive scouts commanded by Lieut.. Jerni-
gan, attacked the rebels, who retreated,
leaving on the field 10 men killed includ-
ing the rebel leader AguiIar and an
American negro. 1t was at first thought

serter from the gath infantry, but this

Jernigan's men was wounded.
MANILA RUM SHOPS.
. Manila. December 6.-The hall occupied
by the United States commission was
crowded today, the occasion being the
public discussion Of the Manila liquor
license bill. The section providing for
banishing saloons from the Escolta and
down town plazas was strongly criticized.
Judge Taft explained that the United
States courts had settled the right OF the
police and the power to limit the sale of
liquors, and yet the places where they
were sold were unlimited. He declared
that the condition of the Escolta, owing
to the presence of saloons, was disgrace
fui. Ihe Judge admitted that 1t was a
hardship to some but he denied that in
justice was being done. The licenses ex,
pire in January and the section of the
bin requiring removals will take effect
In April.
