Philippine Tariff Message.

Washington.-The President Thurs
lay sent to Congress a special mes
sage in relation to the Philippine tar
iff. The message transmits recon-
mendations by the secretary of war
for revision of tho Philippine tariff
so as to permit as much customs reve-
nue. as possible for the islands, and at
the same time extend to the islands
the principle of a protective tariff for
it's industries.
Generally speaking, the bill submit
ted by the President makes a slight
increase in the rates of duty now pro-
vided in the Philippine tariff. but its
trainers say its tendency is to insure
as far as practicable the benefit of the
Philippine market for American man
lures and products.
The bill makes some additions to
the free list. There will be an in
crease in internal revenue duties by
which it is hoped to make up the loss
which the Philippine islands will sus-
tain by the operation of the free trade
provisions in the pending Payne tariff
