LAST DAY OF DEBATE.
Senate Concludes Discussion of Phil
ippine Bill.

Senate Concludes Discussion of Phil
ippine Bill.
Washington, June 4.-The senate
met at II a. m. for the final days de-
bate on the Philippine bill which has
been under discussion for seven weeks.
Mr.. Foraker CO.. called up the house
concurrent resolution extending the
thanks of congress to Secretary of
State John Hay for his memorial ad.
dress delivered to the two branches of
congress on the life and services of
William Mckinley. Mr.. Allison moved
that the senate concur in the resolu-
ton and the motion was agreed to
without comment or division.
Consideration then was resumed,
under the 15-minute rule, of the Phil
ippine government bill. Mr.. McLaurin
(Miss.) denied that the Democrats
had attacked the army and placed the
responsibility for the outrages COM
mitted in the Philippines upon the pol
icy advocated by the Republicans.
Mr.. Beveridge (Ind.) said the next
worlds drama would be enacted on the
Pacific, and it was essential that the
mastery of that great ocean should be
ours, and it would be ours.
Mr.. Berry (Ark.) deplored the fact
that the president, on Memorial day,
had seen proper to make "a bitter par
tisan speech" The president, he said,
had gone back 40 years to rekindle the
fires of sectionalism and had referred
to the acts of an Infatuated mob to
justify, he supposed, the awful order of
General Smith in the Philippines.
Mr.. Quarles (Wis.) denounced as
"damnable," the suggestion that the
object of the pending bill was to turn
over the Philippines to the exploitation
of carpet-baggers, scoundrels and
scallawags. Every decent American
would hide his face in shame if that
were true, but it was not.
Mr.. Culberson (Tex.) intimated that
the war department was endeavoring
to suppress information concerning
matters in the Philippines. He then
presented the charges of Private An
drew K. Wier against Lieutenant F. P.
Arnold and the report thereon by Cap
tain P. w. West, alleging cruelties
against Filipinos.

relic of singular historical interest
The capacity Of Ireland for sending
out emigrants has been one Of the
maryels OF the world. During 1901 the
island sent out $3.50 emigrants, or 9
in every 1000 Of population, of whom
500 per cent were between the ages Of
fifteen and thirty-fve Even this large
total is some 1000 smaller than that of
1900.

result that the plotting and counter
plotting have increased more than ever.

which at any time may result in such

canine continued his statement before
the house committee on insular affairs
during the day. He was questioned by
the minority members with view of

TARIFF REVISION
WHITE HOUSE CONFERENCE oP.
POSES ACTION AT PRES
EMIT SESSION.
DINGLEY RATES NOT SACRED

President and Number of Republican
Leaders Seem Disposed to Change,
but Division of Opinion Develops as
to What Schedules Should Be
Touched-Matter May Be Taken Up
at Next Session.
Washington, June 4.-The confer
ence held at the White House Monday
night is discussed by senator's and
members of congress as having an
important bearing upon some OF the
leading questions of legislation. In
an authoritative quarter it was stated
that the tendencies disclosed at the
conference against any revision OF tar
iff schedules applied only to the pres
emit session of congress and was due
20 the belief that it would be inexpe-
tlient at this late day in the session to
entersupon such an important field as
revision of the tariff schedules. At the
same time it is stated there was no
determination that the Dingley sched-
ules would stand indefinitely, but rath-
er to await the first session of the next
congress before considering how far
new conditions warranted revision.
AS stated by one of the gentlemen
present there was no disposition man
ifested to hold the Dingley rates as
sacred and beyond the power of re-
vision. Some division of opinion was
developed as to what schedules should
be touched and also whether the con-
gress elected next fall should be left
to deal with the subject or the next
session of the present congress should
take it up. It was brought out in the
discussion that the men of strong pro-
lection views like Platt of Connect
cut, Hanna of Ohio and Dalzel of
Pennsylvania were not as much dis
posed toward change as were some
of the others present, including the
president, Senators Allison, Spooner
and Aldrich and Representatives Bah
cock and Overstreet.

Judge Pardee Appoints Receiver for

States Circuit Judge Don A. Pardee
has signed an order appointing John
t. Davis, Jr., receiver of the Inter
state Building and Loan Association

plan of reorganization of the associa-
ton be carried out.
The plan of reorganization proposed

half of the borrowing members, and
the association asked the court to step
in and direct the reorganization on the
basis proposed, appointing a receiver
to take charge of all the assets.
The "Provident Savings and Trust
Company" will be the name of the re-
organized company and the court di-
reefs the receiver to collect all the
assets of the association and sell the
property to the new company for $780,
OPS. This sum is to be distributed
among the holders of paid up stock
who will receive Go per cent of the
face value of their holdings.
The new company bears the expense
of the litigation and assumes the liza
bilities of the association. The In
terstate Building and Loan Associa-
ton has stockholders throughout the
South. The receiver will be required
to collect the loans from those bor-
rowing members who have failed TO
agree to the reorganization.
