revenue of $4,000, which would be
lost by placing iron ore on the free
list as proposed by the house.
Reading the statistics of the iron
ore industry, Senator Burrows said
that it was reasonable to state that
at the present time $4,000 men are
employed, receiving wages amounting
to $31 100000 in the production of iron
ore, which industry, he says, it was
now proposed to open up to the com
petition of the world.
Senator Burrows read description
of extensive iron ore deposits in Cuba:
which, he said, belonged to the Penn.
sylvania Steel Company. This body
of ore on the north coast of Cuba, he
said, was larger than the iron ore de.

and all conditions were favorable to
placing that ore on the market at q

Chairman-Duty Talks in Senate.

Washington. May 1.-two hundred
and one members, one more than
quorum, were in their seats in the
house when Chairman Payne called up
the Philippine tariff bill. :
Mr.. Payne explained that the most
important reason for the legislation
was that the insular government I'm.
der the general tariff bill would be de-
prived of about $1,000,O00 in revenue
because of the free trade relations
proposed to be established between
the United States and the Philippine
islands.
Replying to Mr.. Robinson of Arkan-
sas. Mr.. Payne declared he could not
even prophesy when the Filipinos
would be given self-government.
There were some communities in the
United States, he said, that were not
sufficiently enlightened to govern
themselves. He said he had argued
against the war with Spain, but mas
much as the United had come into
possession of the Philippines this gov
eminent should properly legislate for
them.
Robinson Criticises Policy.
Mr.. Robinson criticised what he
termed the indefinite policy of the
government toward the Filipinos and
claimed the Filipinos were fully
capable Of elf-government.

ernment?" Mr.. Payne inquired
Mr.. Robinson retorted that the ne
gro was capable Of self-government,
but was not capable CT governing the
world And" he added, 81 don't in
tend he shall do Sc He resented the
intimatiC0 that his community was
less capable Of ef-govarnment than
any other community.
Opposing the Philippine tariff bill,
Mr.. Harrison of New York said that
measure should have been drafted by
the Philippine assembly, and claimed
it was drawn for the selfish exploita-
tion OF the islands in behalf Of certain
American industries.
