Washington, June 2.-Little inter-
est was manifested in the senate de-
bate on the Philippine government
bill. At two or three stages it al
most died of hamilton Senator Ma
son in vigorous speech differed
from the majority in the treatment
proposed for the Philippines He
urged that no reason existed for ac-
cording treatment different from
that accorded the Cubans and strong
ly advised that they be afforded the
right to govern themselves. He said
he would not have voted for the Paris
treaty but for the open understanding
that the Filipinos were to be given
their independence as soon as they
were ready for it. Others who spoke
were Messrs. Hoar, Foraker, Cullom
Bacon, Patterson, Teller, Carmacll ana
Proctor.
che house, 129 to 46, suspended the
rules and adopted a joint resolution
extending the thanks of congress to
Secretary of State Hay for his adj
dress on the occasion of the McKin-
ley memorial exercises last February.

eral Sternberg and the house bill to

CONGRESSIONAL NEWS.

Washington, May 28.-An agree
ment was reached in the senate by
which the final vote on the Philippine
government bill, and all amendments,
will be taken next Tuesday. Mr.
Burrows of Michigan explained the
bill at length and urged it's enact
ment, maintaining it would advance
the interest and promote the pros
perity of the islands In his judy
ment it would be a mistake to accord
to the Filipinos self-government and
independence now.
The house spent the day debatlng
the bill to increase the subsidiary
coinage by coming the silver bull1o.
in the treasury, and to recon stand
ard silver dollars as public necessities
may require. The limit of subsidiary
coinage is now 100000. The bill in
creases this to an indefinite amount
in the discretion of the secretary OF
the treasury. The bill aroused the
opposition of the democrats, who
claimed it was only a step in the d.
rection of the complete striking down
of the silver dollar. The debate
drifted into general discussion on
tho silver question. Very little in
terest was shown. Mr.. NeWlands of
Nevada finally offered an amendment
to make subsidiary silver legal tender.
The amendment was pending when
the house adjourned.

Washington, May Ex-senator
Lodge of Massachusetts, in charge OF
the Philippine bill, offered on behalf
of the committee several amend
ments, the most important being the
one extending to the Philippines the
provision in the bill of rights of the
constitution of the United States, ex-
cepting only the right to bear arms
AID to trial by jury. All amendments
were agreed to. Senator Morgan of
Alabama delivered an extended
speech in which he supported, in the
main, the bill as presented by the
committee, He said it looked to-
ward peace and toward a just and
peaceful government in the islands.
Some changes were necessary, in his
opinion but these he thought would
be made. He declared there never
had been a .preterse of an organized
Filipino government in the islands,
and he said that, had Dewey recog-
nized Aguipaldo's claims, he would
have given aid and comfort to the de
CIGlI GU C1Slu1So VI I1lS Ou1ICu OLdCSS.
He took sharply to- task those in and
out of the senate who had extolled
Aguinaldo and asserted the Filipinos
were not fighting fer liberty but sim
ply as savage tools of the Hongkong
junta. Senator Clay of Georgia re-
garded the action of the United
! States since the ratification of the
4ro ivy Of oric a cfo1z nj
! urged that this government ought to
declare it's purpose in the Philippines.
Such action would put an end to the
trouble in the islands. He main
| tanned the bill ought not to be passed,
as it would confer greater power on
the Philippine commission than ever
had been possessed by king or poten-
tate. Senator Spooner of Wisconsin
began a speech in support of the bill
which is to conclude the general de-
bate on the measure by the republic
| can side. He reviewd the situation
in the islands and said the RESPONSE
bility of it rested not on any one
party but on all alike It appeared
strange to him that measure intend

dinate the military power should
create such adverse criticism and
he declared that on the democratic
side nothing was heard but pessi-
mism; the gospel of despair, sus-
picion, distrust, and imputation of the
motives of republican senators. He
declared that never in the annals of
, time had an army carried to a people
so much of amelioration, SO much
! kindness and tenderness as the Amer
lean army had carried to the Filipinos
| by direction of President Mckinley.
The house passed the bill to in
crease the subsidiary silver coinage.
! The democrats directed the fight
chiefly against the provision to recon
! the standard silver dollars into subsi-
diary coin as public necessities might
require. Some New York democrats
voted for the previous question, but
voted with their colleagues on a
motion to recommit, with instruc-
lions to strike out the provisions rela-
I tive to the recoinage of silver dollars.
