SENATE WANTs MORE POWER
II Proposes to Have Voice I'm Carrying
Out Arbitration Treaties.

WASHINGTON. Jan. 7.-Certain LEADERS of
the Senate Committee on Foreign Rela-
tons arc considering the ACCESSIBILITY of in
serting an amendment in the arbitration
treaties with Great Britain, Portugal.
France, Switzerland, Germany, Italy and
Spain. The treaties provide that differ
ences Of legal nature, not affecting the
vital interests. independence or honor Of
the contracting parties, may be submitted
TO the permanent court Of arbitration at The
Hague. II Is now proposed to insert an
amendment providing that the advice and
consent Of the Senate shall first be obtained
before any question is referred TO The Hague
tribunal.
This amendment is one of great scope,
practically aiming TO give the Senate equal
voice with the President in the settlement
of diplomatic questions by arbitration.
Under the Constitution the President Is the
sole medium of diplomatic communication,
and is charged with the making OF ali ar
rangements with foreign Governments ex
cept those made by treaty when the advice
and consent Of the Senate Is necessary 10
their ratification. II the proposed amend
ment to the arbitration treaties Is inserted
It ia argued that the constitutional power
of the President will be limited and oLpo-
sition TO the amendment is sure 10 develop
on this account.
The ratification Of any treaty requires
two thirds vote, and the proposed amend
ment, If adopted. would therefore be an
almost insurmountable obstacle should
there come a time when the President
should propose to submit to arbitration
any question which the Senate might regard
as affecting tho vital interests, Independence
or honor of the United States

NEW PHILIPPINES TARIFF.
Secretary Taft Preparing Schedules Re-
duclnG Rates on Machinery

WASHINGTON Jan. The new tariff
schedule for the Philippines now being
prepared by Secretary Taft, provides
for the reduction Of the tariff on nearly
all classes of machinery which viii tend
to develop the islands to a rate Of 5 per cent.
ad valorem The present rates range
from 20 to rs per cent. With the reduce
tions the entire tariff will average about
20 per cent The rate now is but little
above that figure, but the changes which
will be made on the rates for machinery
are regarded as far-reaching Ill Importance.
Electrical machinery agricultural ma
chinery, pile driving, road making, saw
mill, ice making and refrigernting and
machines Tor preparing cocoanut and hemp
for market are included in the 8 per cent.
class
The change In the rate Of machinery 10
expected to increase the revenues Of the
country, notwithstanding the decrease from
20 per cent. 20 per cent. With the exist
ing rate there has been but little induce
ment for manufacturers to send their prod
ucts to the Philippines. With the lower
rate u great increase Is expected, which
will not only offset the reduction but in
crease the industries Of the island
There will be many other changes made
IN the Philippines tariff While the general
trend will be toward reduction. the rate Of
duty on some products will be increased
and few others will remain az they are.

no HOLD UP STATEHOOD BILL.
Minority Insist on Giving New Mexico and
Arizona Separate Statehood.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 7.--Senators Teller and
Bailey have served notice on the Re-
publican leaders that they need not ex-
poet vote on the Statehood bill as It stands.
They declare that the bill must be amended.
either by striking out all reference to New
Mexico and Arizona and providing only
for the admission of Oklahoma and Indian
Territory as one State, or by giving the
people OF Arizona and New Mexico separate
statehood.
The notice given by Senator Teller Is
particularly significant, as he has never
yet given notice OF preventing a vote pro-
posed by the majority without making his
threat good.
The minority has the power Of course
10 prevent the bill from reaching a vote,
aad the task would not be particularly
difficult at this session, in view OF the many
matters pressing before the Senate in the
few days remaining.
There Is disposition among some Re-
publican leaders to accede 10 the wishes of
the Democrats so far as Arizona and New
Mexico are concerned An amendment
will be- proposed by Senator Bard striking
from the bill all reference TO those Terri
tories, and it is possible that after some
further debate the amendment will be
accepted by the majority. The result
would be an act admitting Oklahoma and
Indian Territory into the Union as single
State under the name OF Oklahoma,
