Mr. TompLins' Conclusion.
In conclusion Mr.. Tompkins said Every
legal and humane reason exists for the
defeat of this measure and the establish
ment of free trade between the United
States and Porto Rico. Is our duty any
less plain now than il was when President
Mckinley sent his message TO Congress!
Conditions have not changed. These peo-
pie are now suffering poverty and starva-
ton. Since Spain has enacted high and
prohibitiye tariff they have had no market
for their products. Their lands are I'M
cultivated. their people are idle. and men,
women. and children, hungry and suffer-
ing are looking across the waters TO us
with all our wealth. prosperity, and hap
piness and are asking and pleading that
we open our ample markets to the prod
ucts of which their little island is capable.

munities privileges, blessings, liberty. and

Mr. Powers Of Vermont. also Repub-
lican. followed in a speech against the
bill, largely a legal argument to prove
the proposition that if Porto Rico is terri
tory of the United States then every act
regarding it must bear upon it as it would
u,on the Territory OF Arizona.
Mr. Broussard of Louisiana opposed the
bill, saying that If the contention of the
WAYS and Means Committee were correct
;hen suddenly, even as the chameleon
changes color. had the Republic been
transformed into an Empire.
The bill was further opposed by Mr..
Thayer of Massachusetts, who repealed the
assertion that the anti-imperialists were
in any sense traitors. He warmly eN-
pressed the opinion that the American
preferred to follow the policy Of Boutwell,,
Hoar. and Hale rather than that of Hanna.

Speeches Opposing the Measure.

Interest in the debate on he Porto
Rican tariff bill in the House yesterday
was subordinate. among the members at
least. to the discussion of the prospects OF
the conference of Republicans to be held
at night to consider the future of the
measure The principal speeches OF the
day we're those of Mr.. Tawney OF Wisconsin
in support of the bill and OF Mr.. Powers of
Vermont. in opposition. Other speakers
we're Representatives Clayton of Alabama,
Tompkins of New York, BrOussard Of
Louisiana. and Thayer OF Massachusetts,,
against the bill. and Mr.. Eddy of Mime
sofa, in its favor.
Mr. Clayton, who spoke first made Il
constitutional argument against the bill.
He contended that Porto Rico was as much
mart of the United States as the Terri
,orv of Arizona. The President had rec
commended free trade with Porto Rico, he
said and Congress should follow that rec
concentration He urged the passage OF
the bill introduced by Mr., Henry OF Texas
to give the Porto Ricans a constitutional
government. such as the people OF the ISL
and were asking for. The pending bill.
he said. was a taxing measure and not a
regulation of the territory, as claimed by
the majority. The tax laws, he said, must
he uniform. as provided for by the Consti-
tuition.

INSURANCE BILL SENT BACK.
The House Committee shifts n bur-
den Upon the mis-ioncrs.

The House Committee on the District OF
Columbia finds so many antagonistic in
terests at work for and against the bill to
regulate insurance in the District that 1t
has determined to refer the bill back to the
Commissioners for further hearings and
investigation.
The FIRE insurance people and others
interested gill have TO wrestle this ques-
ton out with the Commissioners. said Mr..
Jenkins. of the subcommittee. yesterday.
Then, when they reach some kind Of an
agreement, the committee will take up the
bill for orsideration."
The task was found too heavy for the
committee to wrestle with, and It has
shifted the burden. II Is probable that Mr..
DarDeille. Assessor for the District, will
conduct hearings on the bill and reduce It
to form which will more nearly satisfy
all concerned.

Casualties of American Troops at San
tiago and Manila.
In comparison with the casualties suf-
fered by the British troops in South AT
RIGA, those sustained by the American
forces in the Philippines seem very small.
A statement just compiled by the War
Department shows that from July l,
1898, when American troops reached Ma
Mia, until April 81. 1900, these deaths
have occurred: Killed and died Of wounds,
43 officers, 552 men; died of disease, 26
officers, 1885 men; total, 50 officers, 2,lSl
men; grand total, 2,256. Several thousand
men have been wounded, but only small
percentage have died of wounds, and
most of them have returned to duty.
The War Department has just issued
a complete table Of the casualties in the
Fifth army corps in the operations
against Santiago from June % until July
II, 1898. The losses are given: Killed,
p officers, 222 enlisted men; wounded,
1O1 officers, 1,344 enlisted men; total, l.
6S8 officers and enlisted men.
The total strength of the forces oper-
ating against Santiago is given as 500
officers and 1910 men. The Seventeenth
regular infantry lost the greatest num-
Der of men, it's killed and wounded num-
boring 1872. The Sixteenth regular in
fantry lost 129 men, and Gov. Rooseyelt's

DEWEY IN CHICAGO.
WINDY CITY OBSERVES MANILA
BAY ANNIVERSARY.
Naval Victor Is the Center of In
terest in the Parade-Streets Radi-
ant with Banners and a Cheering
Multitude Gives an Ovation.

Admiral Dewey arrived in Chicago
Monday to attend the observance of the
second anniversary of the Manila Bay
battle. He was a little ahead of time,
as he was at Manila bay two years ago.
A big crowd awaited the admiral and his
wife,
The admiral was met at South Chicago
by the general executive committee, head
ed by Mayor Harrison and George G.
Dewey. This committee extended an Off
cial welcome, the Mayor offering the free
dom Of the city to the distinguished guest
and assuring him that the town would be
wide open" for him. In the afternoon
the admiral was given a reception by the
Canadian American Association. In the
evening there was an Illumination Of the
lake front, and later a naval ball at the
Auditorium.
On Tuesday Admiral Dewey occupied
the post of honor in the great parade CIV
en- in honor of his victory over the Span
iards two years before. Down through
the streets, made radiant with banner and
bunting with flag and festoon, rode the
admiral of the navy, the central figure
in a swinging mass of color and music.
Ten thousand men, in Respondent uni
forms of blue and gold, of scarlet and
gray, trooped before and after him. Half
a hundred bands blared the brassy notes
of soul-stirring marches, a score of life
corps shrieked the shrill measures Of war
tunes, horses pranced, flags waved, sabers
flashed and an uncountable multitude
watched the spectacle.
George Dewey will probably remember
the sight he watched from the reviewing
stand in Chicago. 1t may not have been
as spectacular as the naval pageant
which New York arranged for him, nor
as long as some other parades he has
seen, but it was a brilliant procession.
There were regulars, national guards
men, Mexican and civil war veterSns,
man -warsmen, soldierly youngsters
who marched like old campaigners, and
Chicago's representatives in business and
the professions. Eight divisions of them
there were, and they swept through the
cheering lines of packed humanity, under
the banners and the streamers, past the
admiral and his party like an army
marching in triumph of a conqueror.
Chicago had turned out to do honor TO
a hero. Political affiliations were forgot
ten. All remembered the terse sentences
flashed under the ocean from Hong hong
two years ago. That was the keynote or
the thought along the line of march. That
the admiral enjoyed the sight and the
sounds of his welcome was shown by MS
smiling face as he passed along. ~
