have to be determined ultimately by
t1e supreme court"
Open Door In Philippines.
Mr.. Foraker discussed the probability
that this government would be asked by
other powers for an open door in the
philippines, and declared that it was
an important and perhaps imminent
Contingency, of which account would
have 20 be taken. We wanted trade in
the Orient. and after we demanded an
entrance TO China, We must grant one
in the Philippines. He thought the
Philippines could not be dealt with as
i was proposed to deal with Porto
Rico.
Mr.. Tillman-Then the contention is
that we can take Porto Rico under our
wing and protect her TO the utmost,
hut that we cannot do the same thing
for the Philippines?
Continuing, he asked why the presi-
cent had originally recommended free
trade with Porto Rico and the house
Sad brought in a bill to that end, only
hanging it's course of policy after
fearing from Mr.. Oxnard, the sugar
King.
I Replying. Mr.. Foraker referred Mr..
Tillman TO his colleague (Hanna).
Il am not the keeper of the presi-
dents confidence. l have no doubt,
However, that the president spoke from
his highest conviction and best senti-
nent. No doubt he would prefer free
trade with Porto Rico, as / should He
probably knows more than he knew.
when he promulgated that message,
and, knowing more, it is his duty as a
nan and as an official to change his
recommendation"
Should Make Appropriation.
Mr.. Hoar said the thing to do now
vas to make an appropriation of a sum
Of money sufficient to relieve the dis
tress of the Porto Rieans. That course
would be definite, and there would be
no delay nor inhumanity in it.
Replying TO a question from Mr..
Teller, Mr.. Foraker said he regarded
Porto Rico as a dependency of the
United States, and not as an integral
part of the United States.
Mr. Bacon pointed ont what he be-
Ieved to be the inconsistency of pro-
vding for a delegate in congress from
Porto Rico who is not a citizen of the
United States, and who is TO be elected
by persons who are not citizens oe the
United States, but who must take an
oath to Obey the constitution Of the
United States.
Mr.. Foraker coutended that this was
what had been dope in the cases of
Louisiana, Florida and in many other
Instances.
The discussion of the questions of
Constitutional law was continued until
8 O'Clock. Mr.. Hoar made the closing
observation, in which he took sharp
issue with the principles enunciated by
Mr.. Foraker. He held that the doc
tine proposed to be applied to Porto
Rico and the Philippines would result
in a deSpOtism, and it would be none
the less a despotism because it was to
be carried into effect by moral men of
high civilization.

ment Of Senators Hanna and Tillman

academy.
