Ai to tha Philippines he said: We have, aa beat we knew, discharged the duties Incumbent , upon ua and have left td thoae who come after us the settle ment of their own problems. If the people of these Inlands ever become civilized arid capable (t Independent self-government, and then 'desire It, 1, for one, would be In favor of- giving It to them, but I nm con vinced that when these people have struggled up, with our assistance, until they are fit for Independence they will be a unwilling to aurrender their relations to' the United Rtatea as Iowa would be. I know nothing aa ta what the future has In store, but I believe that our flag has been put up In the Phlllpplnea and that It will "stay put;" it will never come down as long as this republic, "one and in divisible," shall be reckoned among the nations of the earth.

SIMILAR TREATIES IN ORDER Pewera to Bo Patterned After Bag land's Commercial Trenty. WASHINOTON, July 30. It Is said here thst ths commercial treaty between Great Britain' knd China) approved at a confer ence at the London Foreign office yester day. Is to serve as a pattern for similar treaties to be negotiated by the other powers with China. By ths terms of the Pekln agreement, each of the powers Is to have equal trade advantages, and It waa recognised at the time of signature that Great Britain, with Its largs trade Inter ests tn the east, would probably be the first to conclude a treaty. It la probable that the United States and ths powers signing the Pekln agree ment will conclude treaties on ths- sams lines, so that Instead of the composite agreement as to trade privileges embodied In the Pekln treaty, each of the powers will have Its own convention with China on the question of commercial relations. Ths revision which Great Britain pro poses to China In tbe trade treaty. It la said, extends to nearly every point in which the United States is Interested, from the registration and protection of trade marks, the creation of a national cur rency, and the extension of ths bonded warehouae system, to the reform Shang hai mixed court and the abolition of all internal taxation, whether native or for elgn, for Import or export. If the provisions which will be em bodied in the British treaty, as It Is finally concluded, meet the views and wishes ef this government, the United States may accept It under the "most favored na tlon" clauae. ' But If the results obtained by Great Britain fall short of this gov srnmsnt's expectations, thsn ths United States may push separate negotiations and conclude a treaty of Ita own. FOR ' THE HAGUE TRIBUNAL Dln-oronen Opinion - Cnnewrnlnc ' Pnyment 'of Chines Indemnity May Be Submitted. WASHINGTON, July SO.

China ea the gold basis, and there Is evidence of steadfast support for the United lutes la thla contention from some ef the moot powerful governments con cerned ih Ike PeRln agreement. Owmg to thla. disagreement the proposition ts adi ranced'to refer tie whole subject to The Hague tribunal. China waa one of the original signatories te The Hague convention and Is therefore In position te demand a reference of this question, ao4 If tha Chlneee demand la sup ported, as ,lfj will ,bs, by the United States, Englsnd and Jtpaa, .with perhaps Germany, there la every reason to beieve that there will be afforded aa 'opportunity to teet the utility of The, Hague tribunal on a gr.eat Issue.
