Senator Hanna Concludes His Argu-
ment I'm Favor of Canal.

ment I'm Favor of Canal.
Washington, June 7.--After transact
Ing some routine business yesterday the
senate resumed consideration of the
isthmian canal bill, Mr.. Hanna of Ohio
conducting his argument in support OF
the Panama canal. The Ohio senator
declared that no political considerations
were involved in the canal problem. He
presented the opinions of eighty-three
shipmasters and pilots in favor of the
Panama route as against the Near
aqua route. for many reasons which
they cited. He urged that the con-
struction of the Nicaragua canal was
beset with unknown difficulties, while
the construction of the Panama canal
was IAN open book" He laid particu-
ar stress on the danger to the Mic
arague route from VOLCANOES and urged
that II was not good business policy TO
ignore those dangers in a project In
volving an expenditure Of $500. Oo0, 900.
In conclusion Mr.. Hanna appealed to
the senate TO consider the matter as a
business proposition, and with some
feeling r~epudiated the suggestion that
those favoring the Panama route were
not in favor of any canal.
In the House.
General debate on the anti-anarchy
bill closed yesterday. che incident Of
the day was a speech by Mr.. Richard
son of Alabama, democrat, condemn
ing the president in severe terms for
the references In his Memorial day ora
ton at Arlington to the epithets applied
to Lincoln and Grant during the Civil
war and for his illusions to ~lynchings.

AGUINALDo's FUTURE.

There Is much speculation as to what
Aguinaldo will do now that he has his
liberty. He had an easy time after he
became a prisoner. He had a cottage
and servants, and all of his wants were
supplied.
Some of his friends think he will
visit the United States and attempt to
create sentiment in favor of giving
the Filipinos their independence at
once. Others are of the opinion that
he will remain in Manila, for a while
at least. He will now have to shift
for himself, and unless he has saved
money he may find it difficult to get
employment that will afford him a liv-
ing. unless he gets place under the
government. Doubtless he would
make very good clerk, provided he
was inclined to work. If Admiral
Dewey's opion of him is correct, he
isn't of much account, and is just as
likely to try to start an instruction
as to try to get an honest living.
Thirty-two other Filipinos of i'm
portance were released from imprison-
A-AS@~N ~ NNN eNiAAAACSNS is
sued by the President on July A. The
most prominent of them is Mabini, a
very able man. He was Aguinaldo' S
chief adviser during the time the lat
ter was the head of the instruction.
He is cripple and has an incura BILE
disease. He is good lawyer, how
ever, and may return to the practice
of his profession. Most of the thirty
two prisoners released are in Guam,
and 1t will be some time before they
will reach Manila. 1t is doubtful
however, If any of them will care to
engage In another instruction, unless
they find greater dissatisfaction among
the people of the islands than exists
there at present.
According to the President all of the
Philippine peoples are now pacified ex-
cept the Moros, and they do not seem
to be giving any trouble Probably
they will give no trouble as long as
they are permitted to do as they
please. 1t seems to be the policy of
the administration at present at least
to permit them to do pretty much as
they want to.

Could Not Make His Speech.

The new Secretary of the Treasury

respect He believes his time at his

He was a small man, but so pompous
