WILL REPORT EXCLUSION BILL
Senate Committee Endorses MITCHELL
Kahn Measure Applying to
Philippines.

WASHINGTON, March 1.-THE senate
committee on immigration agreed to re-
port the Chinese exclusion bill known as
the Mitchell Kahn measure. 1t is sub
stantially the same as the modified bill
submitted by the Pacific coast committee,
only a few verbal corrections having been
made.
A point which occasioned much considera-
ton by the committee was whether or not
Chinese should be excluded ron the Phil
ippines or whether the whole proposition
should be left to the Philippine committee.
The committee agreed to retain the provi-
sion OF absolute exclusion, taking the
ground that the United States wanted to
retain the Philippines for the FilipinoS and
that the latter were ss much opposed to
the admission Of the Chinese as were the
Americans.
Another section of the bill which the
committee debated at length was that ex-
GLIDING Chinese sailors from ships Of Amer
lean register. This provision also was
retained in the bill, but with a proviso to
the effect that in case of accident, stress oil
weather, or serious illness the captain of q
vessel may ship a Chinese crew for a voy-
age on which he may have entered.
The paragraph concerning the return OF
Chinese Is changed so as to read as fol
lows;
The duty of returning said Chinese per
son is hereby imposed on the master
owner, consignee or agent of the vessel
and on the railway corporation, its genera
office and agents and on ghe owners ana

or wilfully neglect promptly to perform

| employees are also subject to penalties.

OVERTURES OF COMPROMISE
Proposition to Settle Cuban Tariff Made by
Payne and Dalsell.
OPPONENTS TO RECIPROCITY CONSIDER IT
Plan May he Adopted TO Have
Reciprocal Reduction Apply for
Year from Next De-
cember

WASHINGTON, March 12.-Overtures
have ben made for compromise of the con-
dict over the tariff concessions to Cuba
and there are evidences that the two ele-
ments will come together probably on a
proposition to have the 20 per cent fecip-
rocal reduction apply for one year from
next December and covering the sugar
crop.
II is understood that Chairman Payne
and Representative Dalzell made the over
lures toward an agreement. One Of the
leaders Of the opposition said that Messrs.
Payne and Dalzell had made the PROPOSE
tion TO him and had asked for an answer.
This was followed by a hasty conference,
which developed difference OF view. Will
liam Alden Smith said no compromise
would be accepted until after a meeting
at which 1t could be considered deliber-
ateiy. Mr.. Tawney said the limitation OF
time was material, that no compromise
would be accepted affecting agricultural
products without similarly Affecting manu-
featuring products.
Conference f. Held.
Soon after the overtures were made the
element opposed to the ways and means
committee plan called a meeting in the
committee room of william Alden Smith,
Some thirty members were present and the
discussion lasted about two hours. The
Sentiment was rather unfsvorable TO ac-
cApting the plan of 20 per cent reduction
for the year from next December and some
Of those present favored rejecting the plan.
But 1t was urged against this course that
80 long as overtures for adjustment had
been made in good faith 1t was only proper
to meet the committee representing the
ways and means and Mr.. Payne and his
associates therefore were advised that they
would be met by g committee from the
other side.
During the meeting the statement was
made that one OF the beet sugar advocates
had been assured by representatives OF the
ways and means committee that the plan
Of compromise would not cover this years
sugar crop and would apply only to the
crop Of next year, harvested prior to De-
cember. 1903.
Doubts of Assurances.
Some doubt existed, however, as to those
assurances and 1t was considered quite
vital to learn with dehniteness whether
the 20 per cent reduction would apply tC
two crops or to one. 1t was stated after.
ward by the ways and means committed
members that the compromise plan would
AFFECT two crops, that Of this year and mex
allowing 20 per cent on on each. There
was no purpose, It was stated, to limii
the reduction to a single crop.
This matter probably will be left to thu
arbitrating committee with the indication
that the beet sugar conferees will insist
on limiting the reduction to one crop, tina
OF next year, and with that limitation will
be inclined to accept the plan of compro-
mise.
A full conference OF the opposition +,
Cuban concession will be held tomorrow
prior to the meeting of representatives o.
the ways and means committee. ~
