Washington, Feb. 18.--Whilc no definite

Judging from a discussion of the subject
late in the days session. that the vote
may be had next week, although the mat.

Mr Teller (Colo), concluded his speech
today. He urged strongly that the Fill

The islands. He said he would prefer that
this government should withdraw abso-
iutely and without condition from the

Mr. Teller said that as a solution Of the
| Philippine trouble, he would send to the

that they should have the kind of gov
eminent they wanted except that they

States would protect them from foreign
invasion. ut would he q protectorate /
should apply TO the Philippines" said
Mr. Teller. "and i believe it would be

Mr.. Mitchell (Ore), delivered a care

upon Philippine products coming into this

posed by the Dingley act and later on en-
tirely free. and this all largely in the
interest OF the trade and commerce of the
