Tax on Philippine Bonds.

When the Senate resumed consideration
of the Philippine government bill today it
took up amendment striking out the
provision of the bill exempting from taxa
ton bonds issued by the Philippine gov
eminent, which was suggested by Mr.. Cor
man.
In support of the amendment, Mr.. Cor
man said that the proposition is practically
unprecedented. He contended that the eX-
emption was wrong in principle, and also
argued that the exemption would be appli-
cable to railroad bonds.
Mr.. Lodge and Mr.. Foraker replied to
Mr.. German, holding that the exception
would be of vast benefit in disposing of
municipal bonds: that the exemption did
not apply to railroad bonds and that the
revenue would be inconSiderable.
Mr. German expressed the opinion that
ultimately the United States government
would be called upon to pay the principal
as well as the interest on the proposed
Philippine railroad guaranty.
Mr.. Bailey took exception to this state
ment, saying that he did not consider that
this country would be morally responsible
for the payment of these bonds, and while
he apprehended that such claim might
be made in the future, he thought 1t
should find no support by referring to the
reports of the Senate debate.
Mr.. Bailey suggested an amendment re-
quiring Philippine railroad companies to
secure the approval of the Philippine COM
mission on all bonds issued by them.
Exclusion of Chinese.
Mr. Dubois presented an amendment pro-
viding for the rigid enforcement of the
Chinese exclusion laws in the Philippine
Islands and spoke IN support of it. He
expressed the opinion that as time ad-
vances there would be increased demands
for the admission of coolie labor, with
the result, IL these demands be granted,
that the sugar making industry of the
United States would be destroyed by the
competition.
Mr. Spooner presented a substitute for
section 4 of the bill, relating to railroad
bonds. The amendment places the rate OF
interest at 4 per cent instead of 5 as in
the original provision and restricts bond
and stock issues to the amount of the
actual cash investment.
The understanding that the amend
ment would be accepted by the committee.
Reading a document entitled What has
been done in the Philippines" Mr.. Culber-
son characterized 1t as "a political PAM
phlet notwithstanding it had been prepar-
ed by the War Department and printed by
Congress"
Speaking of the railroad bond provision
Mr. Quarles expressed the opinion that II

pinos with railroads In advance of their
civilization.

SECOND PEACE CONFERENCE.
The Powers Notified of the Hearty Ac-
of Secretary Hays Suggestion.

Secretary Hay today transmitted u 'iio
United States ambassadors and ministers
accredited to the powers signatory TO Inc
Hague convention, for presentation 10 the
several foreign offices, a circular note CIV
ing a summary of the replies to his note OF
last October suggesting a second hague
conference to complete the work begun by
the first. The note will be made public by
the department at a later date
The effect of the note is permanently 10
record the hearty acceptance in principe
by all the powers addressed of the sugges-
ton for another peace conference Inc
fixing of the date for this convention Is
subject for further discussion. as Russia, IN
her acceptance, inserted the condition that
the conference be not convened uncl her

very reasonable provis!on-that this con-
ference in the event that it should De
called in the lifetime of the present war,
shall not in It's findings affect that conflict.
So reasonable does this suggestion appear
to several neutral powers that 1t Is thought
possible that it may yet commend Itself TO
all the powers, including Russia.
In case the conference specifically exemp,S

THE PRIMER WAS CHANGED.
Report Regarding Premature Discharge
of a Gun Received.

Gen. Crozier, chief of ordnance. has re-
ceived report in regard to the recent pre-
mature discharge of 10-inch disappearing
gun at Fort Wetherill. at jamestown, r. l.,
which seriously endangered the lives of the
gun crew. From this report it appears
that the accident occurred while the gun
was behind the parapet, before 1t was
raised to the firing level, and was due to
the premature explosion Of the primer. 1t
further appeared that a slight change
had been been made in the primer since it
left the factory to permit Of its use at
another post, Fort Adams. and that it
was used in the gun at Fort Wetherill
without knowledge of the change. The
change in the piece was very slight and
had not caused any trouble when used in
other guns of the same make. The ex-
plosion did considerable damage to the
parapet and to the he disappearing Is II carriage.

Secretary Taft Goes to the Capitol to
Confer With the Members
Of the Senate.

The Senate committee on terri
tories reported to the Senate today
the bill providing for the admission
of Oklahoma and Indian territory
and Arizona and New Mexico as
two new states, and Mr.. Beverage
gave notice that he would call it up
after the Philippine bill was disposed
of. The Senate then resumed co,l-
sideration of the Philippine govern
ment bill.
The House devoted its time 20
considering private claims bills.
Immediately after the Senate was called
to order today Mr.. Beveridge, from the
committee on territories reported the state
hood bill and gave notice that Immediately
after the disposal of the Philippine govern
ment bill he would move It's consideration.
Representing the minority of the commit
tee, Mr.. Bate notified the Senate that he
would enter a motion to recommit the bill
for the purpose of taking further testimony.
Mr. Bard gave notice of amendment
combining the provisions of the bill to the
state to be formed by the union of Okla
homa and Indian territory, and eliminating
all reference to Arizona and New Mexico.
At this juncture Mr.. Gallinger caused
some laughter by making an inquiry con-
corning an alleged executive session agree
ment of yesterday not to do any further
business before the holidays after the pas
sage of the Philippine bill. Evidently he
did not know that the action had been in
executive session and asked for Informal
ton as to the accuracy of the report, which,
he said, he had heard, saying that he had
designed to present on Monday report
from the merchant marine commission.
Under the circumstances the chair de-
clines to answer" the President pro tenn
pore replied.
The manner of the reply was evidently a
sufficient hint to Mr.. Galinger, and he
asked to be directed to source from which
he might secure the desired informa ton,
whereupon the chair referred him to Mr..
CullOm.

Secretary Taft at the Capitol.

Secretary Taft reached the Capitol soon
after the Senate convened today, ready to
meet objections that have been raised

of his visit and conferences with senators
he took part in the preparation of a new
section to the bill, to take the place of sec

Fencing for Grace

Every woman would like TO be grace
ful, but comparatively few are by ma
ture as graceful as they might be IL
they would take little trouble in the
matter. English women, as a rule, are
far behind French and Italian ladies in
grace of bearing, and the reason prob
ably Is that their bodies are not so
carefully trained.
In Spain and Italy women Of the
higher class are generally expert
swordswomen, for they esteem fencing
as one Of the best possible athletic
exercises, valuable alike for giving
strength and grace to the body. and
alertness TO the mind. Young girls,
therefore, are taught TO fence as care
fully as their brothers, and as accurate
~, and there are many schools where
ladies practice not only with the foils,
but with the broadsword
In England a few ladies' Of high rank
and a good number OF our younger act
Iresses delight in fencing, but this form
of athletics is by no means popular
as It deserves to be, among our girls
and yet those few who take 1t up not
only derive great physical beneft from
it, but find it a most fascinating and
exhilarating exercise.

Cleaning Light Cloth

A white broadcloth raglan is quite a
modest looking garment, and yet it re-
quires almost as much care as a baby
or an automobile; that is, unless one
knows some Of the secrets Of keep
ing it in order easily and Of hiding
the ravages Of time. One Of the best
ways to care for these delicate coats
is to have constantly on the toilet
table a bottle OF strong borax water,
say a teaspoonful of borax TO a pint
of water, dissolved while the water is
hot; when the first suggestion of SOL
appears rub it with a flesh piece OF
cotton dipped in borax water. II the
spot Is difficult to get out. use two or
three fresh pieces of cotton, so that
the soil is not scattered, and rub brisk
ly to keep the water from soaking into
the cloth.
This treatment viii remove dust,
mud spots, and also perspiration stains
II is wise to treat a spot as soon as
possible after it Is acquired, as every
hour makes any soil in cloth more
difficult to get out. While cleaning
thoroughly. borax water Goes not leave
the ugly circle Of stain that gasolene SC
often does. II is a depressing fact
that, as a rule, most cleaning fluids
just substitute one spot for another

Short Skirts Popular

Smart women are wearing short
skirts on the promenade. as well as
when engaged in shopping; some Of
them indulge in house gowns that clear
the ground, and a few even are placing
orders for dancing gowns of the same
comfortable length. The last are ex-
treme, Of course, but no one can ever
foretell how far a fancy Of this sort
win be carried.
There Is no doubt that the short skirt
is being seen more and more frequent
ly, but let no one imagine for a mo-
ment that It is like the short skirt Of
former days. severely plain and thor
oughly practical from the utilitarian
standpoint
The new short skirt admits Of infinite
variety and may be made as dressy as
one wishes it. Being of light weight
and yielding material and without a
lining, its peculiar fashioning is pro-
ductive of a general effect as new and
attractive as it is charming. Tucking

perfluous wrappings and pillows. These
