a Sharp Clash
STRONG OPPOSITION DEVELOPS
TO PHILIPPINE MEASURE
GouIden Would Take DingIey Rate;
From the "Giant Trusts Senate
Will Investigate Canal,

Washington, Jan. 9.--The Philip
pine tariff measure was the single top
ic of consideration in the house to-
day. The speeches were uniformly
against the measure and were allowed
to go in general without answer. Di-
gression in the form of tariff revision
discussion was made in a brief speech
by Mr. Gillett, of Massachusetts, who
favored Canadian reciprocity. Mr..
Bonynge, of Colorado, discussed the
bill from the standpoint of the beet
sugar industry.
Mr. Burgess, of Texas, opposed it on
constitutional grounds, and had live
ly colloquy with the minority leader,
Mr.. Williams, on this point He charg-
ed that the democrats to be consistent
should oppose anything but free trade
with the Philippines on the ground
that it was an American possession.
Mr.. Williams defended the minority
position by stating that he was sup
porting this bill because it was as
near free trade as it was possible to
obtain from the majority. The issue
was drawn sharply between the two
members of the minority and furnish
ed the interesting situation of the day.
Mr.. Cassell, of Pennsylvania, spoke in
opposition, i'm behalf of the tobacco
raisers for his constituents. Mr.. Goul-
den, of New York, closed the debate
for the day with brief reference to
the need of taking protection of the
Dingley rates from the giant trusts
of the country"

ALL HARMONY

Chicago, Jan. Amy differences
that may have existed among the va
rlous minor baseball leagues which
compose the National Association of
professional baseball clubs were ami
cably adjusted at the annual meeting
here today of the controlling organ
ization. Eighteen associations out of
total of twenty-six which go to
make up the parent body were repre-
sented at the meeting and although
there was much rivalry over the nam
ing of a new executive board there
was no evidence of split In the or
ganizauon, which 1t was said, was
probable should the members of a
certain faction be defeated for re-elec-
ton. This faction, which was headed
by George Tebeau. Of the American
Association, and Griffith, of the East
ern League, were able to muster only
2h votes out of the is cast and their
places on the executive board were
filled by new members.

THE REIGN
Of TERROR
SEEMS OVER
AulOcracy Believes Reds
Will Never Recover.
REV0LUTl0NISTS DECLARE 1T
ONLY A HOLIDAY TRUCE
Another Great Uprising Impossible
Until National Assembly or
Spring Fever Set In,

st. Petersburg, Jan. 9.-The success
that thus far has attended the cam
paign against the violent revolution
lists has plainly encouraged the gov
ernment to believe that the worst is
over for the winter. Except in the
Baltic provinces, the Cacasus and the
Don region, where the prevailing an
archy is likely to continue indefinitely,
some semblance Of order is being
gradually restored in the empire. The
socialists and revolutionists stoutly
maintain that the lull is only truce
over the holidays, and from mysteri-
Gus hiding places the leaders continue
issuing orders to refuse all compro-
mise with Imperialism, to boycott the
national assembly and to prepare for
great armed insurrection. The
government, however, processes conf
dence that the revolutionists will not
quickly recover the loss of strength
and prestige which they have suffered.
Disorders on a small scale and acts
of terrorism are expected to continue,
and something in the nature of a gem
eral demonstration is anticipated Jam
uary %, but great uprising in the
immediate future is regarded in gov
ernment circles as impossible. The
next real crisis is not expected until
the national assembly meets CT the
spring sets the peasants in motion.
The members of the government de-
clare that the abortive attempt at an
armed insurrection performed a serv-
Ice to the country in revealing to the
liberals of all shades of opinion the
necessity of fighting the violent pro-
gram of the reds" and that hence
forth no matter how much the
liberals oppose the policy of the gov
ernment they will be found arrayed
against the reds" How far these
calculations of the government. based
on divisions among its enemies, will
stand the test of events remains to be
seen, as many times heretofore they
have been readily shattered.
The personal escort of the emperor
has been increased by a squadron of
Cossacks composed of picked men
chosen from the entire Cossack force
throughout the empire.
Colonel Prince Pudjabn has been
appointed chief of the palace at

Insurgents Lose HenvlIy.

Salonica, European Turkey, Jan. 0,
"A return issued by the Turkish au-
thorities show that 1,032 casualties re-
suited from the fighting i'm Macedonia
between Turkish troops and Bulgarl-
an, Greek and Servian revolutionary
bands during 1906. Altogether 119
encounters took place in the Vilayets
of Salonica, Monastir and Uskub, In
which the insurgents lost $40 men
killed and 20 wounded. In addition
the troops captured 225 prisoners.
The troops lost 1872 killed and las
wounded. A comparison of the num-
Der of men killed with the number
wounded shows that no quarter was
given.

Birth Rate in Colonies.

London, Jan. 9.-In view of the
recent discussion in the Times regard
ing the unsatisfactory condition of the
birth rate in England II. Rider Hag-
gard writes to that paper today say
ing that the colonies are just as bad.
Aside from the Roman Catholic
French settlements in Canada, he says,
there Is no normal or satisfactory in
crease in the colonies. He prophesies
that their existence as British-bred
communities will be brief unless An
glo-Saxons are induced to emigrate.
He argues that city folk are not OBJ
jectionable to Canada.
