With Having Knowledge Of Slavery
In the Islands.

Washiugton.-Gre to the sur
prise Of every one, the subject OF
slavery was introduced in the senate
on Monday. Secretary Taft was d.
rectly charged with having knowl-
edge of slavery in the islands. The
debate was made pertinently on the
sections Of the bill revising the crimi-
nal code OF the United States. which
provide penalties for dealing in slaves.
Mr.. Hale asserted that such provis-
ions should be stricken out. as he re-
garded slavery as obsolete In the
United States and he could see no
reason for referring to 1t. Senator
Hepburn, in charge of the bill, de-
clared that not only is there immoral
traffic in white slaves, but that coolie
labor in the form Of practical lavery
does exist. and added that actual HUI
man slavery IL still maintained in the
Philippine islands.
Mr.. Lodge made a statement to dis
prove the charges OF slavery in the
Philippines.
