the House
Rv Associated Press.


WASHINGTON, Jan 4.-The cause
of the Filipino was advocated on the
floor of the house by the Republican
leader, Mr.. Payne, for nearly -four
hours today. He represented the views
of the majority of the ways and means
committee on the Philippine tariff bill
reducing the duties on sugar and to-
bacco to % per cent of the Dngley
tariff rates and admitting other
products of the islands to the United
States free of duty. Before he began
and following Mr. Payne's speech,
brief discussions indicated that there
is to be a protracted debate on the
measure and that the Republican op-
ponents representing the cane and beet
sugar interests of this country will
speak and vote against the bill.
The presidents annual message
which caused a seven-day discussion in
the house preceding the holiday re-
cess, was disposed of in twenty minutes
at the beginning Of the days session.
The particular question which was the
cause of contention-which committee
should get the insurance question
was temporarily settled by the adop-
tion of an amendment offered by Mr..
Hepburn, providing for an expression
of opinion by the judiciary committee
control corporations other than rail-
ways.
Acting on printed charge that men,
berS of the house were sending COWS,
libraries and all manner of articles
free through the mails, the house in
structed its postoffice committee to
make an investigation as to whether
members are abusing the franking
privilege.
More than the average attendance of
members We're in their places when
the house met for its first session after
the holiday recess.
The Philippine tariff bill was taken
up for consideration. Consideration of
the bill was conducted in committee
of the whole, with Mr.. Olmstead of
Pennsylvania in the chair.
After the bill had been read Mr..
Payne, in charge of the measure, tool,
the floor MI Mondell of Wyoming
wished to know if the debate was to
be limited. There were, he said, a
number of members on the Republican
side who wished to oppose the bill.
The debate, Mr.. Payne replied, would
continue at the pleasure OF the house

MOSCOW, Jan. 4-"Against the
brilliant conduct Of tho troops and po-
lice the resistance Of the insurgents
in Moscow has been shattered. Their
legions have been dispersed and arc
fleeing i'm disorder Many of their
chiefs have been arrested and the
others have fed far and wide"
with those words Governor General
Doubassor begins long account Of
the rising here, which he issued to-
day. Continuing, the account says:
Though organized revolt has been
crushed, some of the most desperate
fanatics remain and continue to fire
on the troops. I cannot suffer the
shadow of this terror to hang over the
people during the Christmas festival
! have therefore given positive orders
that by Christmas eve, next Saturday
according to the Russian caleudarD
every quarter Of the city must be
swept clean of the last traces of revo-
luton. and | have called on the peace

operation i'm running down the revolu-
tonists and i'm restoring tranquility"
The governor general iuStities the
action of the police and military and
says that the operations Of the ariil-
lerymen were much hampered by the
care taken TO preserve the lives and
dwellings, of peaceful citizens. The
operations, he says. were suspended
for one whole day for the purpose of
permitting the removal of women and
children from the quarter i'm which the
rebels were strongest. He charges that
the accusations Of unnecessary cruelty
brought by the newspapers were evil
IDENTIFY intended to compromise the
army and to rupture the bonds unit
ing the army with the nation. and
that therefore they are unworthy of
refutation The governor general says
he regards it as incumbent upon him
to declare that the troops in no way
overstepped the limits imposed upon
them by their duty and their oath of
to the emperor

and opportunity would he given to all.
Mr. Payne then explained the details
of the bill
In brief. the bill provides for the
admission to the United states of artt-
cles wholly the growth and product OF
the Philippine islands free of duty eX-
cept sugar and tobacco, on which q
tariff of 25 per cent Of the Dingley
rate shall be collected. In consideration
Of this reduction of duty on sugar and
tobacco the product Of the United
states is to be admitted into the Philip
pines free of duty. After April 1, 1903,
the bill provides absolute free trade
between the two countries
Mr.. Payne went into some details in
explaining the industries of the Phil
Ippines
when MIR. Payne announced the con-
cluson of his speech at 4 O'Clock, Mr..
Bonynge OF Colorado Catechised him
briefly as to the allegation that Mr..
Payne had changed his position
since the passage Of the Porto Rico
tariff bill.
Your position on that measure was
that q precedent might not be made
whereby the Fiipinos might expect
tariff reductions stated Mr.. Bonynge.
II take this position now because Il
Is right" declared Mr.. Payne.
Mr. Bonyngc responded that the gem
tleman had changed his mind as ia
right" 1t now included subjecting
American labor to competition with
that of tho orient.
Mr.. Mann of Illinois made the point
that a time limit should be placed in
the bill AS to when the internal revenue
tax shall be turned into the United
States treasury instead of the island
treasury.
At APO o'clock the house adjourned,
