Debate on Philippines.
A very interesting debate on the
Philippine tariff bill began in the SEN
ate today, On behalf of the majority
of the committee on Philippines.
Chairman Lodge reported the house
measure. Mr. Rawlins of Utah, act
ing for the minority of the committee,
offered substitute for the bill Of the
majority, and announced that he would
submit some remarks on 1t at the con-
clusion of Mr.. Lodges statement In
support of the majority report. The
measure providing for the establish
ment of department of commerce
was also under consideration. An
effort was made by Mr. Nelson of Min
nesota to secure a vote. but the oppo-
sition to many of It's provisions be-
came so strong that the effort had to
be abandoned.
The Democrats substitute for the
house Philippine tariff bill provides
that there shall be temporary free
trade between the United States and
the islands; that the United States
shall continue to occupy and govern
the islands until a stable government
has been established, when the presi.
dent shall direct withdrawal from the
islands, the United States to retain
such military and naval stations as
are deemed necessary. The Philip
pines are declared by the minority
bill to be foreign territory from the
passage of the act.
Senator Vest introduced in the SEN
ate, as a substitute for the ship SUBJ
sidy bill, his bill of the last congress
repeating the law regarding the pur-
| chase OF foreign built ships.
The time of the house was occu-
pied in general debate on the urgent
deficiency appropriation bill. An item
| in the bill carrying $500, 900 for a mil
itary post at Manila precipitated a
| long debate, In which some Of the
ablest debaters on both sides of the
house took part. A semi-humorous
speech by Mr.. Clark (Mo) ELECTED a
reply from Mr.. Cannon Qlls)' which
in turn drew the fire OF Mr.. DeArmond
(Mo). Others who participated were
Mr.. Richardson (Tenn). Mr.. Grosve.
nor (O), Mr.. Alexander IN. W, Mr..
Grow (Pa.), Mr. Williams (Ills) and
Mr.. Underwood (Ala.).
