FEDERAL LAW MAKERS.

Washington, Feb. 1S.-It was
agreed by the senate that the final
vote on the Philippine tariff bill and
pending amendments should be taken
next Monday. The only stipulation
made by the minority was that the
last day of the debate should be de-
voted to speeches not exceeding Is
minutes in duration. Senator Well
ington of Maryland spoke in opposi-
ton to the bill and Senator Stewart
of Nevada in support of it. Senator
Wellington set forth his views force
| fully. He always had been as republi-
can, he said, a believer in the sys-
tenn of protection and a supporter of
the gold standard, but he had come
to the parting of the ways with his
party in 1898, when it developed cts
imperialistic tendencies" He op-
posed the pending bill because he did
not think that congress had the right
to enact legislation by which people
were taxed without representation
and governed without their consent
Senator Stewart made a constitution
al argument in support of the author
ity of congress to hold the Philip
pines and provide a proper govern
ment for their inhabitants.

Washington, Feb. 19.-The senate
continued consideration of the Philip
pine tariff bill, the main speeches
being made by Senators Burrows of
Michigan for the bill and Money of
Mississippi against it. although Nit
chen of Oregon, Foraker of Ohio,
Mallory of Florida and Tillman of
South Carolina all took more or less
part in the general debate on the
subject. Senator Borrows maintain

in the future. He maintained that
