raont bill was again under discussion
in tho house. Mr. Ball of Texas
charged tho president and administra
tion -with hypocrisy. If the president
would dissolve tho firm of Havcmeycr,
Root, Wood, Thurber and Company,
and strike a blow at tho sugar trust
by agreeing to accept the houso Cuban
reciprocity bill, he said, tho bill would
pass tho senato by the aid of a solid
democratic vote in. twenty-four hours.
Tho rcspbnslbillty for us to do our
duty by 'Cuba, ho insisted, rested on
the president. Turning to the question
of trusts n'e also charged tho admin
istration with hypocrisy upon that
subject.
Mr. Landis followed Mr. Ball and
made an earnest speech in support of
the policy of retaining the Philippine
islands. Mr. "Williams of Mississippi
made the closing speech in opposition
to the bill. The general debate en
the measure was closed at tho night
session.
On June 25 the bill was thrown open
to amendment in the house.
Senator Morgan, one of the senators
foremost in favor of tho Nicaragua a
canal route, has declared that tho
spooner amenament should oe ac
cepted. This amounts to a declaration
for tho Panama, route. On June 25 the
houso conferees on the lnter-occanlc
canal bill decided to accept this
amendment
On June 26, at the end of a week's
debate, the house passed the Philip
pine civil bill practically as it camo
from the committee. It was a party
vote, 141 to 97, with the exception of
Mr. McCall of Massachusetts, who
voted with the democrats. The bill
passed was a substitute for the senate
bill and differs principally in the fol
lowing points:
The house substitute provides for a
complete system of civil government
with a legislature, to consist of two
houses, one 6f which shall be a pop
ular assembly elected by tho Filipino
people.
The senate bill contained no such
provision. The legislature is to be
chosen after the "existing insurrection
in the Philippines shall have ceased
and complete peace shall have been
established therein and the fact certi
fied to the president by the Philippine
commission."
Tho house substitute also amplifies
the "bill of rights" enumerated in the
senate measure and adds to the num
ber of issues which can be appealed
to the supreme court of the United
States.
The house measure also defines with
greater detail than the senate the
rights of citizenship of those residing
in the islands, and provides that all
residents shall receive the same pro
tection from the United States in re
spect to their relation with foreign
governments as is accorded to citizens
of the United States.
One of the most important differ
ences between the house and senate
bills is that relating to coinage. The
senate provides a silver standard
somewhat in extension and perfec
tion of that now in existence. The
house measure provides a gold
standard system, with the gold dollar
of the United States as the standaid
unit of value for the Islands. The main
coin is to be the peso, made in silver,
but of a gold value, and this is to be
divided into subsidiary pieces of mon
ey bearing devices emblematic of
American sovereignty.
Provision is also made for a com
plete financial system, tho details bo
ing different from those in the sen
ate measure, although following the
same general lines. In dealing with
the grant of franchises the house bill
places many more restrictions on such
grants than the senate bill. In this
respect the restrictions provided ';y

Both bills provide for acquiring the
friar lands and for the issue of bonds
sufficient to pay for the lands, tho
senate provision making tho lntorcst
rate 4 per cent and the house 5 ier
cent Both measures contain extended
provisions relativo to the timber lands,
harbor and Internal Improvements,
and for two delegato commisslonov3
chosen by the Filipino people to rep
resent them In Washington and have
the privilege of the floor of the house.
Mr. McCall (rep., Mass.) offered tho
following amendment:
"In this first organic act, creating a
civil government for tho Philippine
islands, it Is hereby solemnly de
clared to be the settled purpose of the
congress to extend to the inhabitants
of thoso islands every aid In enabling
them to develop tho capacity for self-
government, and when such capacity
shall have been developed wo pledge
the faith of the republic to confer upon
them the right of self-government af
ter the fashion of the really free na
tions." Mr. McCall made a vigorous speech
in support of his amendment, saying:
"I do not propose, Mr. Chairman, t
attempt to discuss hero tho general
question of what shall bo our ultimate
relation with the Philippine islands,
or how soon we shall withdraw, if wo
ever do withdraw. But this bill opens
up almost every stick of timber, every
acre of land, every nugget of ore to
the people of these Islands and to the
citizens of the United States. Capital
ists will make investments th'ere, and
after they have invested, if the propo
sition is made to take the islands
from under the jurisdiction and sov
ereignty of tho United States, they
will come to congress and they will
say that wo have invested our money
on the faith of this act, and they will
anneal to us to nrotect them. Gentle-
I men know as a practical proposition
mat no matter wnat may De tne aesires
of tho American people we will never
get out under those circumstanced,
and that wo will be there forever.
"Now, I desire to have it written In
this act that we are not liable to stay
there forever. It seems to me here
and now is the time and place for U3
to make some declaration with re
gard to it."
Mr. "Williams of Mississippi ap
pealed to the republicans to adopt Mr.
McCall's amendment. He taunted the
republicans with being afraid to de
clare their policy. "Why allow mat
ters to drift?" he asked, "until vested
interests are created which we cannot
abandon. Let us settle this thing here
and now."
Mr. Grosvenor declared tho McCall
amendment meant first to develop the.
capacity of the Filipino people for
self-government and then to admit
them as a state. The first step he was
willing to take, "but," he added, "1
am unwilling to mortgage the future."
"Now, you are running away,"
shouted Mr. Sulzer of New, York.
"Are you willing to 'accept an
amendment," inquired Mr. McDermott
of New York, "to develop not the ca
pacity for self-government, but to de
velop self-government?"
"To develop capacity," replied Mr.
Grosvenor, amid laughter, "is as far as
I am wiling to go."
Mr. Grosvenor's amendment was do
feated without division.
The vote was then taken on Mr. Mc
Call's amendment. Two republicans,
McCall and Littlefleld, stood up with
the democrats in support, of it The
amendment was lost, 89 to 128.
On June 26 the conference report on
the Isthmian canal bill was adopted by
the house by a vote of 252 to 7. Mr.
Morgan presented the report on the
canal bill In the senato and It was
adopted there. This passed the bill
and it was sent to the president.
The senate agreed to amendments to
the general deficiency appropriation
bill reimbursing the Buffalo Pan
