MERIDIAN BOUNDARY TREATY.

The treaty with Great Britain providing
for the marking Of the medidian boundary
between British Columbia and Alaska.
which has been before the Senate for
at least five years, was taken up by the
Senate Foreign Relations Committee to-
day but after some discussion Of the en-
tire boundary question between the two
countries. the treaty was laid aside with
out action.
There is no dispute over the meridian
boundary, and the pending treaty refers
only 10 the marking on OF the line. The
real controversy over the boundary con-
Germs the territory around the head of
the Lynn Canal and has arisen since the
pending treaty was negotiated.
1t has been the subject OF extended ne
gotiations between the State Department
and The British Foreign Office and was
the one point which prevented an agree
ment by the Canadian-American Joint
High Commission OF two years ago. As
this controversy Is still unsettled. the
Senate committee took no action on the
pending treaty and viii recommend none
until some agreement is reached.

BOTH PARTIES ARE SOUARELY LINED UP

The attitude Of the Democrats in both
the Senate and House has clearly indI-
Gated during the past ten days that they
expect to make the Philippine question
the paramount issue in the next Congress
sionaI elections Already they have filled
many pages of the COMPASSIONATE Record"
with speeches vigorously attacking the
policy the Republican party is pursuing
in The Islands. and nearly every Democrat
who has spoken has declared IN favor Of
giving the FHipinos their independence as
soon as a stable government can be es-
tablished there.
The only break in their ranks has come
from the three Louisiana members who
supported the Philippine tariff bill, but
who. as Representative Robertson de-
clarcd. are nevertheless in line with their
party on the general question OF Philip
pine policy-that is. opposition to the re-
tention OF the islands.

Debates in the House,
In the House during the consideration
of the pension bill and the urgent def
cheney bill. the principal portion OF the
debate has been upon the subject of the
Philippines. at least so far as the mi
nority is concerned. This attitude has
apparently been as strong among the New
York and other Northern Democrats as
among their Southern colleagues. Even
the New York delegation which seeks to
aLrogate The Kansas City platform and
adopt resolutions defining the Tarty's
position. retains in substance and effect
the Philippine plank. Other members be
