TE 0N EXPANSION
‘The' California Tenator Speaks on
the Vest Resolution.
MATTER OF POLICY PURELY
Says .Wc Should Not Retain the Philip-
pines—eNominatic-ns Prevent _Consitlera;
of the Peace Treaty—Promotions for
Sampson and schloy.
Washington, D. .. Jan. 24.--Soon af-
ter the Senate convened yesterday Mr.
sad the Senate in advocacy of _M1
Vest’s anti-expansion resolution. He
said that senators should ask them-
selves the question: “Shall we acquire
the Philippine islands under the con-
ditions now confronting us? Is it bet-
ter that we shall do so?"
“Each senator should endeavor to
impress on the Senate the fact that
we have erected a. nation of which we
are proud, it is our duty solemnly and
positively to see that it remains puie,
and that it be not tainted by a. hetero—
geneous compound of inefficient huv
. manity.
“I care not,” Mr. White continued,
“whether or not these people are fit-
ted for free government. If they are,
they should be permitted to exercise
their rights and to establish a free
government. If they are not, they
should not be brought in alliance with
us; we do not want them."
Contradictory statements, Mr. White
said, had been made about the inten—
tions of the 1:1111'1inistratior. in the mat-
ter of expansion, but in his mind there-
11 us no COUCllISibn possible except that
if. was the intention, object and aim of
the present administration and o."
timse backing 't, to annex the Philip-
pine islands peimanently.
J Mr. White took occasion to refer to
a. remark of Mr. C: iandler that the pol-
icy toward the Filipinos. should be one
of benevolent assimilation. Mr. White
explained that the dictionary gave the
meaning of the word not as absorp—
tion, but as bringing to a resemblance
or likeness.
“If the senator from New Hamp
shire, ” _Mr. White suggested, ‘absorbs
a broiled lobster, he assimilates it; that :
is, he ought to.”
“The senator from California does
not notice the different meanings of
the word,” said Mr. Chandler. “Un—
doubtedly the president thinks—"
"Does the senator speak for the pres«
ident?” Mr. W'hite broke in.
“Undoubtedly the president thinks as
I do,” Mr. Chandler replied, “if he is
a wise man; and I’ think he is. The
president thinks we ought to bring
these people into a reasonable likeness
to us, but not necessarily to incorpo-
rate them, and I hope the senator will
not lay too muCh stress on the use of
the phrase ‘benevolent assimilation.’ "
“I trust,” Mr. White said, “that the
intention of the president and of the
senator from New Hampshire is to
beautify aridl soften and assimilate
that alien race. Perhaps the senator
has reference to a. state of affairs that
will result from an experiment of a
century or two, when, through contact
and otherWise, the Filipinos may be
made more nearly homogeneous with
.us )1
At the conclusion of Senator W'hite’s.
speech Mr. Hale, Republican of Maine.
made an effort to proceed with 'one of
the appropriation bills, but Mr. Davis,
Republican of Minnesota, insisted on
a motion to go into executive session
for the purpose of considering the trea-
ty of peace, and that motion was, at
2.15 p. m.. agreed to.
Although Chairman Davis asked for
an executive session for the purpose of
considering the treaty of peace, the
first business done behind closed doors
was the confirmation of nominations.
to which there was no” ojection, the
usual proceeding. ‘
After those nominations were dis-
posed of. an effort was made to secure
action on the promotious of Commo-
dores Sampsn and Schley to rear ad-
mirals.
The debate on the merits of the two
_officers so occupied the whole of the
session that the consideration of the
tréaty was not reached efore adjourn-
ment.
Fritz Von Bourdon Dead
Wilmington, Del., Jan. 24.--Fritz Von
Bourdon died yesterday morning from
the effects of two paralytic strokes re-
ceived on Saturday. He was born on
August 6,1826, in the Castle of Buchan
on Fredersee, Wurtemburg. He was
J'closely. related to the Duke of Turn and
Taxis, and through that family to
Francis Joseph, emperor of Austria. He
had resided in Wilmington for the past.
thirty years.
Griffin, Brigadier-General.
Washington, D. 0., Jan. 24.--The
president yesterday sent the following
nominations to the Senate:
To be brigadier general of volunteers
Colonel Eugene Griffin, First United
States Volunteer Engineers. ' ,
Frederick C: Perkins to ,be register
of the land office at Durango, Col.
Collingwood in Collision.
London, Jan. 24.--The British first

mulgation of the constitution of the

' Want Reduced Freight Bates.
Lincoln, Neb., Jan. 24.--The Repub-

ined to pass the law reaming freight

St. John, N. 13.513, Jan. 211.-—The hug.
est~party of immigrants ever landed
at a. Canadian port came ashore from
the Beaver linei
day after noon, when 2,300 Doukhobors
put their fcet on Canadian soil.
The. steamer had touched at Halifax
and given a clean bill of health, but to
guard against any possibility of dis-
she Was stopped at quarantine.
The ship's. doctor reported all well and
at four o’clock she was docked.-
The immigrants were ,sent ashore in
divisions of 450 and placed in'the sheds,
where they got all the food required,
while the children were entertained by
a delegation of the St. John W'omen’s
Council.
The voyage from Halifax occupied
about thirty hours. On the way were
were five marriages, which, with six
on the voyage, makes eleven since the
vessel left Batoum, in the latter part
of December.
On the arrval of the steamer here
one m n was found to be suffering
from pneumonia and he' was sent to
the hospital.
Both United States and Dominion
government officials agree that no finer
lot of immigrants ever landed in any
port in America. The fact that after
a twenty-nine day voyage no sickness
of consequence developed is conclusive
proof of the physical condition of the
men, women and children.
Prince Hilkoi‘f expressed himself de-
lighted with all the arrangements and
said he would never forget the kind.-
ness of the Canadian people.
The Lake Superior, with two thou-
sand more Doukhobors is due in about
ten days.
Eveiy family has one hundred and
sixty acres of land, a shanty and a
number of farm' implements given to
them by the Dominion government. In
addition they are provided with com-
fortable quarters until the advent of.
spring. . ‘
PEACE TREATY TO GO OVER. ,-
Cannut Ge: 11 Vote and an Extra Session
May be Called to Act.-
Washington, D. 0., Jan. 24.--The_
peaCe treaty will probably go' over un-
til an extra session.
The leaders find that they cannot get
a vote at this session without making.
impossible concessions, and it is also
not certain in advance of a vote how
many senators would be with them. ,
Chairman Davis and his followers
believe they would surely have a two-
thirds majority when it came to a final
vote, but cannot ’now count certainly
in advance on the required three
votes.
Senator Davis admitted yesterday a‘f—
ternoon, before he asked the Senate to
go into executive-session, that he fear
ed he would have to take tth‘e treaty
back to his committee and wait for the. ,
extra session which the president is
really to call early in Maich.
Senator Davis construes the
which he helped to make as unneces-
sary to appropriate the twenty mill'io’n
dollars for Spain before the regular
session of the next Congress, and say-.5.
that it would not be necessary to call:
the House also in extra session.
Senator Hale does not want an extra-J.
session, as he has arranged 'to go to.
If he and Mr.:
Europe in the spring.
Hoar consent to vote for the treaty
there will be no need of an extra ses-
sion or postponing his European trip.
Bodine Drops Dead.
Millviile, N. J., Jan. 24.—-J. Alfred
Bodine, president of the Bodine Glass
Company of Williamstown, dropped
dead in the office of his factory yes.
terday afternoon. His death is be-
lieved, to have been due to excitement
over the threatened strike of three
thousand glass blowrs and eight thou-
sand other employes to-day at this
place, Bridgton, Clayton, Glassboro,
alem, Williamstown and other points.
Mr. Bodine was greatly worried over
the coming strike and dreaded it. He
left his home in Camden in the morn—
ing to go to the factory and his mis-
sion was to endeavor to obtain a post-
ponement of the strike and see if :1
conference between the men and their
employes could not be arranged.
The excitement of the situation was
too much for him. He was seventy
years of age and had been engaged in
‘ the glass business for fifty years. He
was through the big strike a few years
ago and knew what a new strike
meant. He was thought to be favora-
ble to the men. . ,.
Bill to K~ep Polygamiszs Out of Congress
-\Vashington, D. 0., Jan. 24.--Repre—
sentative Clark of Iowa yesterday in—
troduced a bill “providing that no po—J
lygamist shall_be-a senator or repre-
sentative."
It provides that “no person living in
or practicing polygamy‘sh-all be eligi-
ble to be a member of either house of
Congress of the United States, nor
shall such person be permitted to hold
a seat therein.” '
It is further provided that the evi-
dence ofypolygam‘y shall be “of what—
ever nature that establishes'the fact."
Another provision makes the act take
immediate effect.
Married Brother's “’idow.
Ma‘swutah, 111., Jan. 24LRobert M.
Keller has been married to the widow
of his brother Henry, who died two
years ago. ‘
On his death _bed Henry exacted :1
promise from Robert to take care of
his wife and business. Robert also
promised to marry Henry’s widow if
his own wife. should die. ,
His wife' did die a few months ago,
and Robert was able to fulfill all the
promises made -to his dying brother.

A woman physician says she believes
that the first and most important step ,
in education should be a' knowledge
of fundamental physiological laws, an
ignorance and disregard of which bring
about conditions of body which hindei
or prevent entirely a perfect perform-
ance of the duties of life or an enjoy-
ment of its pleasures. Rules for
health and self-preservation are given
out by workers in many lines of socio-
logical work among the poor. Such
physiolog. , the doctor believes, should
be taught thoroughly—not'the number
of bones‘ in the human body, but :1
general knowledge of the laws by
which it is, governed.
