LOSSES IN THt PHILIPPINES
Resolution in The Senate 10 Get Statistics
Thereon.
Causes Lille Comniotion Because of
Accusation Of scheme for Pos
litleaI Purposes.

Washington, March 2e.-In the Senate
today, resolution offered last Satur-
day by Mr.. Allen tNeb) was taken up.
II called upon the secretary OF war for
the number Of soldiers who have been
killed or have died Of wounds In the
Philippines since August l, 1898; the
number who have died OF disease. the
number who have been wounded. the
number who have committed suicide
and all other similar information In
possession OF the war department.
Mr.. Allen supported the resolution
in a brief speech after Mr.. Gallinger
had suggested that 1t ought to go to
the committee on military affairs.
Mr. Galllnger intimated that the reso-
luton would have the effect Of dis
couraging enlistments In the United
States army, Mr.. Allen declared that to
send the resolution to the committee on
military affairs was 10 destroy and
smother II. He said that owing TO the
climatic and other conditions In the
Philippines an American army could
not remain there for two years. He
was crediblv Informed, he said. that
the whole American army would have
10 be Withdrawn within a few months
He said that Illness and suicide among
the troops were on the increase He
believed the American people were en-
titled TO the facts. He was prepared.
he said, TO 20 so far as 20 advise men
not TO enlist for duty In the Philip
pines.
Advertlng 10 a reference by Mr.. Allen
during the course OF his speech that
Mr. Gallinger had not served In the
civil war, the latter said his services
had been offered and had been refused
on what he thought were insufficient
grounds. His wish TO have the resolU-
ton referred was not due TO any effort
TO have II smothered, but that II should
be examined by proper committee.
He was satisfied that while the percent
age OF illness was not high In the
Philippines, the evident intention Of the
resolution was TO obtain Information
that might be easily garbled forpolltlcal
purposes.
Mr. Hawley chairman OF the COM
mittee on military affairs. was inclined
10 think the inquiry ought TO be made,
the statistics from the Philippines be-
Ing placed side by side With similar
statistics on the wars OF other nations.
lie believed Mr.. Allen would be dlsap-
pointed In the result In order that
the resolution might be amended, Il was
on his motion referred 10 the committee
on military affairs.
The Alaskan civll code bill was then
taken up.
