luout thill Senator Mi-Comas (.Mil.)
would inaugurate the discussion mi
the suppression ol" iiniiivhy nnd inisii"
ehlsts tilled Iho senate galleiles today
with ii goodly number of spectators.
Hefore the- loutine Itiislnut-rf wan tak

Monday. 'I'lic heavy inllux of petitions,

taken in their formal icccptloii.
Mr. Pentose (Pa.) favorably reported
fioui the committee on education and
labor the bill continuing the Industrial
i oiiitnlsislon until I'Vhruary IS, in order
that It may close up work now in hand
and secured Immediate lonsideration
tor the measure. The 1)111 was passed.
Mr. Mel'omas was then recognized in
support in" his bill Inlioiluied yester
day, pioviding the death penalty for
assaults upon the president, or for in

S.l'Jt-
The senate snnho ol the dangerous
siiread of .miirihy, President I'arnot,
Prime Ministi r Oanov.is, the Ihupress
rl Austria, King llumheri and tiosi
deiil McKinley having hcou foully as
sassinated by anarchists within the
last seven years. It was humiliating,
ho said, to consider the Impoteney of
our fedeial laws to punish this feai fill
i time. Tin- senate spoke of the i evolu
tionary propaganda under the guiding
f)uind of JIciv Most, and th nihilist,
Il.ii't mini, and the formation since 1SS1
of .inariliist groups. Congress must
now legislate against tills peril with
courage, llrmness, conservatism and
prucleiiie. Tlie constitutional power of
oongiess to deal with the subject was
dlseiis'-cd at length and supported by
numerous leferences to supreme court
, divisions. Mr. Mi-Comas lurther urged
the exclusion and deportation of an
aichlsts, the amendment of the immi
gration and naturalization laws ami
the negotiation of treaties with foielgu
powers permitting the extradition of
those charged with anaiclilstlc of
fenses. In the course ot his speech the
senator argued that International i util
ity called for action on our part to
suppress the origin of plots In this
country against foieign ruleis.
Toward the close of his speech, Mr.
Mel'omas said:
"Wo should enact laws to expel and
to exclude alien anarchists. We shall
at this session with unanimity le-enuct
the Chinese exclusion act. 1 will cheei -fully
vote to exclude the hordes of
'hlmi and prevent the competition of
Chinese cheap labor. Kar moie iciihly
will 1 vote to exclude alien anaicliists
here now. We have nnlui alined and
even native anaicliists in our midst.
With these we must contend in other
fashion. Why should we not, as we
may, expel alien anaicliists for initsi ."'
The senator also urged nunieious
amendments of the humiliation laws,
with a view lo excluding auanhlsls. In
oucluslon, ho said:
"At all tlnie-i the body of the plain
people that Lincoln lined and upon
whom McKinley leaned are its untun
ing defenders. This gie.it people, fac
ing tlie hideous pel II of anarchism,
taught by their sorrow to think
straight and see clear, now rate moie
highly than ever the value of their gov
ernment, prize more than ever Its beiie
llts which arc theirs to enjoy and theus
to transmit. Mine than ever before au
now H'veuled to them Its blessings, its
glory and Us power,"
Mr, McCoinas was accorded i Iomi at
tention throughout his remaiks.
Mr. Hoar's Plan.
St Hi'' conclusion of Mr. Mci'oui.i's
remaiks, Mr. Hoar (Mass.) spoke
brlolly along the same Hues, He said
that, while he heartily agreed with
much that hud been said, yet the great
dllliculty In all these cases of assassin
ation was that the assassin was willing
and anxious to give up his lire, Fear
of consemieiices did not In any way
deter Biich an assassin. Such was the
caso with the assassin, f William of
Orange, who welcomed the torture. In
dicted upon him. i:ery assassin of n
foreign i tiler hail expected early and
certain death. Tim iniiltlpljrull'oii of
punishments for the act imer there,

Mr. Hoar "aid banishment would he
a proper punishment tinder Iho consti
tution, and If all nations would agree
that every such person bo sent to a
spot whole theie was no government,
It would be all effective teiiiod). I 'el -talnly
the anarchist could not oin
plaln, for in being transported to a
place of no government ho would hae
touched his Clopla.
Mr. Mct'omas' r solution was then
laid aside for discussion later.
The presiding ollleer aimouiiced the
following senators as the committee to
act with the committee from tile house
to consider bv what token of respect

Washington, Doc. H.--It Is believed
that any iniilT legislation for the Phil
ippines will be opposed by the Sugar
Trust, which, It Is reported, will be
glad to have sugar from those Islands
admitted 1'iee as long as possible. Since
the system now upset by the supreme
court has been in operation, ir.j.ooo.OOO
pounds of sugar have been imported
into the T'nlted Slates from the Phil
ippines and the duties on these int
poits, amounting to about M,40iJ,O00,
will have to be refunded. It Is under
stood that the present sugar ciop Is
unusually large, and every effort will
be made to prevent tariff legislation
tyntll alter this can have been brought
into the United States. Of course, the
beet-sugar Interests will do all they
can to hasten legislation.
Senator Lodge's Bill.
The bill which Senator Lodge intro
duced yesterday to meet the emer
gency cieated by the supreme court
decision in the "fourteen diamond
rings" ease was drawn at the war de
partment. A similar hill will be Intro
duced in the house by Chairman
Payne ol" tlie ways and means com
mittee. The bill may be taken, there
fore, lo embody the view of the ndmin
istt ation. Simple though it is. tlie bill
will encounter Democratic opposition,
and even as a temporary measure will
be fought to a finish.
Although the bill was introduced first
In the senate, It is proposed by the sen
ate leadeis to allow the house to act
upon it rtrst, in order to avoid any pos
sible cause for friction between the two
bodies. If the bill were nn ordinary
revenue men sine il would, of course,
under the eonstitut'on have to origin
ate in the house. The best lawyers in
the senate do not regard it as a revenue-
measure within the meaning of the
constitution, as the revenues collected
have to come solely from articles im
ported to or exported from the Philip
pines, and aie to be devoted solely to
the benefit of the Philippines without
being turned into the general lund of
the treasury. They hold, therefore, that
under the decision of the Supremo
court, since congress lins power to leg
islate as It sees fit with regard to the
Islands, any constitutional provision in
legard to tlie collection of revenue or
the method in which levenue hills shall
be passed does not apply. However,
the matter is one of such pressing Im
portance that there will be no attempt
to stand on any question of privilege,
and consequently nothing will be done
in the semite until the house shall be
icaily to tut.
To Beport at Once.
It Is proposed lit the house that tlie
ways and means committee shall leport
the bill at once. 11' the contention of
the Senate is sound, that il is not an
oidinary levenue measure, then the bill
should go to lite Insular, rutin r than
the ways and menus committee, in the
same manner that It goes to the Philip
pines committee lather than to the fi
nance committee In the senate. Some
teellng may be aroused for that reason.
However, the piesslng Importance of
the nicastiie will pi event any seilous
dissension. For that lonson, Il Is pol
icy to have the bill considered tlrsl 111
the house. Debute lan he limited llieic
and the bill 1 an be passed speedily,
thus carrying a moral weight at the
other cud of the capital; bin tlii-re .ivlll
he siillliient debate to leVcal the 1 liar
111 tor of any opposition that may de
velop. When the bill comes over to the sen
ate, there will be unlimited debate, The
Itepubllcaii leaders will he In a hettei
position to meet criticism if they have
any Inkling from the house proceedings
of what line the opposition is likely to

HUMANE PEOPLE
IN A WRANGLE
Mayor Jones, of Toledo, Does Not
Believe That People Should
Be Killed for Crime.
Ily Kulti'lvp Wire fiom Hi; .5-01 iat .! I'rc.
Toledo, o.. Uec. .".Mayor Samuel M.
.lones has resigned from the board of
directors of the Toledo Humane soci
ety, because its president. Hon. .lames
M. Utovvn, who is also president of the
American Humane soclotv, declared
that a man who deserts Ids children
should be put to death.
The declaration appears in the an
nual report of the Toledo Humane soci
ety, and Is as follows:
"The man who will In Ins children
into the world and In their helplessness
desert them, is unlit to bear the Image
or either brute or man, Is an enemy to
his race, a traitor to his country, and
should be put lo death. Yet the legls
latuie or Ohio will send such a man to
a stone yard ror llnec months, and the
man who steals a cow, from one to
seven years In the penitentiary."
Mayor Jones, lu a letter to Mr.
I'rown. exptessed his lespeet for the
society and its ollicors In an attempt
to benellt mankind, but, if it was the
purpose or the society to kill men for
abandonment of children, he could not
serve as diiector, and therefore lert
deied his resignation, as he did not be
lieve in killing anybody for irime.
