AN ESCORT OF CoLORED TROOPERS
Governor Koch Responded to Toast, ssNothfng the Matter With Kansas."
 Ex-Governors of Missouri . and Virginia Present.

KANSAS CITY, Nov. 21. Secretary of War William H. Taft, guest of hon or last night at the annual banquet of the Commercial club in responding to the toast, 'The Philippines" said that 7 the Philippine Islands must be ours for more than a generation and that , propably those called on to act as leg islators would not live to see the day when separation consistent with the welfare of the Philippines can be made.
 '.The Filipinos may we'll question the good faith of our declarations that we ;. are there for their good when we de cline to open our ports to their prod, ucts and refuse to give them the bene- fit of the markets of this great country for the things which they have to sell
 In all the legislation for which con, gress is responsible affecting the Phil ippine Islands there are two acts which can be criticised .as having selfish motive. One is what we might call the 2 coastwise act, the effect of which is to require that after July 1, 1906, all freight from the Philippine Islands to the United States and the reverse shall be carried in American bottoms
 and the other is the law by which there ], is imposed on producers of the Philip pine Islands coming into the United { States 75 per cent of the Dingley
 rates"
 The occasion of the banquet was the anniversary of the signing of the John : Jay commercial treaty. Senator War ner was toastmaster.
 Secretary Taft was accompanied by :. D. R. Francis, S. M. Felton. president of the Chicago and Alton railway, and , Corwin H. Spencer of St. Louis. Secretary Taft was escorted from
 the railway station by 250 colored troopers of the Ninth cavalry to ths
 Commercial club rooms, where public { reception was held. After luncheon = drive was taken over the city. < One toast was Nothing the Matter With Kansas" and was responded tt
 by Governor Hoch of Kansas D. R. Francis, former governor o1 . Missouri, and John S. Wise of New York. formerly governor of Virginia 2 also spoke

PROMISED AID AND COOPERATION.
Minnesota Commissioner Made Trip to WashinEton to Confer With RooseveIt--Action to Protect
 All Policy Holders.

ST. PAUL, Minn., Nov. 21.--Accord. ing to State Insurance Commissioner O'Brien's report to Governor Johnson made here on Mir. O'Brien's return from a trip to New York and Wash ington in connection with the troubles of the big life insurance companies, President Roosevelt may be the chief arbiter in a cooperative effort of all the states of the Union to compel the large life insurance companies whose troubles are now being aired in New York to put their business on safer and more economical basis.
 MT. O'Brien was under orders of Governor Johnson to look into the in- suranee situation. Governor Johnson had been deluged with requests from policy holders in the northwest to act in the matter. He gave MT. O'Brien a letter of introduction to President Roosevelt. MT. O'Brien visited Wash ington and had conference with Pres- ident Roosevelt. The result of this con- ference was reported to Governor Johnson. Mr. O'Brien's report said that during the time allotted to him by the president he outlined his plan of action, which was to call a meeting either in New York or Washington fol- lowing the completion of the investiga- tion now in progress in New York of all the state insurance commissioners of the country and also the governors and attorneys general If necessary.
 This meeting is to evolve, if neces- sary, demand for reorganization of all the important life insurance com panies, but more particularly the plac- ing of the affairs of those companies on safer business basis, any action to be taken by this meeting to be CO., operative and each delegate to go back to his state prepared to carry out lis part of the programme.
 When Mir. O'Brien had stated his plan he said:
 Now, MT. President, there will be a committee to carry out our plans and we need head. Will you help us?'
 T most emphatically will" was the answer of the president, according to Mir. o'Brien's report to the governor. T will be glad to help you in any way I can"
