Josltion of the United States In the Orient-Benefits to , Our Commerce. WASHINGTON. Mmrli T.-S.mn nft T the senate convened tndiiy Mr. Sulli an (Miss.) ofTered n rcsolnt imi tlint tlie Philippine Ishinds me tlie rightful prop irty, honoriildy nciiiired, of the T'nited .Itafes, nnd t lint "while the misguided Filipinos eotitiiuie the present war, rjtiidit on liy them, nirninst the rightful inthority of the United Suites, no lotitr M a finale gun in their liniuls is trained ipon our fine, no expression of intention is to the future course of the I'nited States with respect to them should be nade y the Semite." Mr. Sullivan nsk 1 that the resolution lie on the table un 11 ho should call it up. In accordance with notice previously ;iven, Mr. Lodge (Kep., Mass.) then nd Iressed the senate on the 1'liilippine picstion. As ehairinan of the committee m the Philippines and as n inemher of he committee on foreign relations. Mr. lodge was expected to make a notahle ittpranee on the question, lie was given, herefore, an attentive hearing ly both lis collcngues on the floor of the senate ind by a large concourse of auditors in he naileries. Mr. Lodge's speech was based on the ill introduced by Mr. Spooner (Wis.) zesting in the president authority to aov rn the I'hilippines until congress should therwise provide by legislation. Mr. Iiodge reviewed lit length the situ ition in the Philippines and the condi ions whii'h led to tile present position f the I'nited States ami in conclusion Irew a luminous picture of the commer cial possibilities of the Philippines and f the enormous advantages they would e to the I'nited States not only on ac count of their own fertility and richness f resource, but because they are the ateway for this country to the immense .xade of the orient. Adverting to n re 'nt diplomatic achievement of the t'nit d States, he said: "The possession of the Philippines nade us nu eastern power, with the right ind, what was equally important, the orce behind the right to speak. Mr. lay, ns secretary of state, lias obtained .torn all the great powers of Europe their rsscnt to our demand for the guarantee f all our treaty rights in China and for rhe maintenance of the policy of the open 'oor. I do not belittle one of the most mportaiit and most brilliant diplomatic .enlevements in our hundred years of ua Jonal existence when I say that the as ent of these other powers to the propo itions of the United States was given to he master of Manila. They might have turned us nside three years ago with n hnig and n smile, but to the power vbjch held Manila bay nnil whose fleet oated upon its waters they were obliged give a gracious answer. Manilu, with ta magnificent bay, is the prize and the earl of the east. In our hands it will 'eome one of the greatest distributing olnts, one of the richest emporiums of he world's commerce. Rich in itself, ith all its fertile Islands behind It, it . rill keep open to us the markets of Chi ta and enahlc American enterprise and ntelligonce to tuke a master share in all he trade of the orient. "We have been told that arguments i; 'fie these are sordid. Sordid, indeed! i'hen what arguments are worthy of con ideration? A policy which proposes to pen wider markets to the people of the United States, to add to their employ nent nnd to increase their wages and etalch in Its pursuit requires that we hould save the teeming millions of 'hina from the darkness of the Russian rioter and keep tnetn free, not merely 'or the incoming of commerce, but for he entrance of the light of western civili atjon, seems to me a great and noble Klicy, if there ever was such, and one hlrh may well engage the best aspira ions and the highest abilities of Ameri can statesmanship. "I do not believe that this nation was nUed up for nothing. I do not believe hat it is the creation of blind chance. ? have faith that it has a great mission ti the world a mission of good, u mis ion of freedom. I believe that it can t up to that mission; therefore I wnnt o see it step forward boldly ami take ta place at the head of the nations. I vish to see it master of the Pacific. I rould have it fulfill what I think is its nanifest destiny if it is not false to the which govern it. I am not dream ng of a primrose puth. I know well hat in the past we have committed ;rievous mistakes and paid for them, ; one wrong and made heavy compensa loa for it, stumbled and fullen and suf- ; red. But we have always risen, bruis- ' d and grimed sometimes, yet still we uive risen stronger and more erect than ver, and the march has always been ;cirward uud onwurd." ?h Home Pays Respects to Hnrmer WASHINGTON, March 7.-The deuth f Representative llarmer of Pennsyl nnin, the "Father of the House," cast a eep gloom over the house today.

Why I'anneefote Will Remain. LONDON, March 7.-The St. James Gazette this afternoon, while declaring that the extension of Lord Pnuneefote's stay nt Washington as embassador of Great Britain is due to the coming nresi- dential election and "all that goes with this recurring commotion," says: "To Americans Lord Fauncefote's stay will be acceptable because he has achieved the feat of making himself popular, with a success for which there is no precedent since the first British minister was ac credited to the United States a century and a qunrter ago. Thus his continued tenure of office is acceptable because he hns pleased the Americans, and it is highly desirable from a business point of view as well as grateful to our feelings that they should continue to be pleased."
