Patterson asked whether the native pop- ulation on which the voting franchise is bestowed could not be trusted to do jury duty. The Governor replied in the nega- tive, saying they are so used to corrup- ticn in the administration of justice that they could not be trusted. “They need to be trained,” he sald, “to have examples; they are not ready for jury duty.” RBeferring to the code of procedure in the islands Governor Taft said in reply to a question by Senator Culberson that it 15 an American code rather than a Bpanish code. Under the Spanish regime, sald Governor Taft, the courts were /not only sluggish, but notoriously corrupt, and the first courts established by Gen- eral Otis were no better. Under Spanish rule there was & substantial denial of | Justice. Referring to the petition of the Federal party Governor Taft said all cases of im- prisonment referred to were for military and not civil offenses. Practically there are no civil prosecutions for political of- ‘fenses at this time. Governor Taft said the original draft of the Federal party platform had been submittted to the com- mission and that the declaration for statehood was then more explicit and was ultimately adopted. | “My recollection,” he sald, *is that we sald to the representatives of the party that this must be far in the future and that we could make no promises one way or the other.” “Was not the commission responsible | for the formation of the Federal party?” | asked Senator Dubois. “No, it was not,”” Governor Taft re- | sponded. He gave the names of several prominent Filipinos who had assisted in the organization. They had, he said, con- sulted the members of the commission and the latter had encouraged the forma- tion as far as possible, because the party was for peace. The promise of state- hood had been no prominent part of the mission work of the leaders. Senators Patterson, Carmack and Cul- berson asked numerous questions based | upon the memorial from the Federal par- | ty, calculated to bring out Governor Taft's idea as to what, if any, promise had been made to the Filipinos in the | way of government for the future. | _Governor Taft advocated the establisk- ment of a stable government for the pres- ent, with the understanding that some time in the future the Americans and the Filipinos could reach an agreement as to what ghould be done in the way of gov- ernment or in maintaining relations; “but,” he said, “whether the islands should have their independence, whether they should be given a quas! independence or whether they should be made a State of the Union is so far in the future that I have reached no conclusion.” Replying to a question by Senator Car- mack, he =aid that he had not considered the problem of possible statehood fifty years hence. He would favor a promise even of a form of government, such as is given_the Territories of the United States. He also sald he was opposed to extending the constitution to those isl- questions by Senator Patterson in regard | GF INTEREST TO PEOPLE OF THE PACIFIC COAST Changes Made in the Postal Service and More New Pensions Granted.

GENSUS FFICE \ STORM GENTER Senators Have Debate on Permanent Bureau Question. Civil Service System Fur- nishes Basis for Con- troversy. Y LGN R WASHINGTON, Feb. 15—During the entire session to-day the Senate had un- der consideration the bill establishing a permanent census office. It was not com- ! pleted, but an agreement was reached to take it up again immediately after the | executive session that is to be held on | Monday next for the consideration of the Danish treaty. The great contest of the day, of course, | was over the transfer to the classifieds service of the employes of the census of- fice who are to be retained in the perma- nent establishment. It involved the en- | tire civil service question and the debate | covered much of the ground that hereto- fore had been gone over in Congressional debates. The pending amendment was that of Lodge to amend the paragraph relating to the retention of employes so that 1t | would read that “all employes of the tweifth census office at the date of the | passage of this act who were, retained in the employ of the permanent census, above tne grade of skilled laborer, shall be and they are hereby placed without further examination under the provisions of the civil service act.” In support of his amendment Lodge argued tnat if all the persons at present in the employ of the census office should b placed arpitrarily within the classified service without further examination, it would work a hardship upon those who had taken civil service examinations and were on the eligible list. The discussion continucd for some time, practically the whole civil service system being threshed over, Finally Gallinger gave notice of an amendment, declaring that persons who had served as soldiers in any war in which the United States has engaged and the widows of such sol- dlers snall have preference in the matter of certification. Lodge's amendment was rejected without division. Gallinger then offered his amendment. It was accepted by Quarles, in charge of the bill, and it was adopted. Many ineffectual efforts were made to amend section 5. Finally on motion of McComas, the first para- graph of section 5 was amended so as to En ead: “That all employes ot the census office, except unskilled laborers, at the date of the passage of this act shall be and they arc hereby placed without further exam- ination under the provision of the civil service act.” On motion of Teller the bill was amend- ed so as to provide for an assistant di- rector of the census at a salary of $4000 per annum and further that the terms of appointment of both the direct and assistant director should be four years. An amendment was offered by Allison and adopted, providing that in the annual collection of statistics of births and deaths the data shall be obtained cnly from registration areas. Dubois offered an amendment providing that the director of the census shall col- lect annually statistics concerning the business of trusts or industrial combina- | tions, the statistics to be_ collected through reparts made to the director by theresponsible heads of such concerns and to cover all details of the business. The amendment was rejected, 17 to 31, the vote being along strict party lines, except that McEnery (D.) of Louisiana voted agalnst the amendment. Child’s Act Causes Disaster. WASHINGTON, Pa., Feb. 15—Mrs. Henry Dague and her three-year-old son ‘were fatally burned last evening by the child pulling an oil lamp off the table, An explosion followed and the blazing oil was scattered over the two. Henry Dague, the husband, was also badly bunned while trying to rescue his wife ané child. ADVERTISEMENTS. Peculiar Power Possessed by a New Medicine. Of new discoveries there Is no end, but one of the most recent, most remarkablé and one ‘which will prove invaluable to thousands of people, fs a discoverey which it is belleved will take the place of all other remedles for the cure of those common and obstinate diseases, dyspepsta and stomach troubles. This discov- ery is not a loudly advertised, secret patent medicine, but is a sclentific combination of wholesome, perfectly” harmless vegetable es- sences, fruit salts, pure pepsin and bismuth, These remedles are combined in lozenge form, Pleasant to take, and will preserve their good | qualities indefinitely, whereas all liquid medi- cines rapidly lose whatever good qualities they may have had as soon as uncorked and exposed to the air. This preparation is called Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets and it 15 claimed that one of these tab- lets or lozenges Will digest from 300 to 3000 times its own weight of meat, eggs and other wholesome food. And this elaim has been proven by actual experiments in the following manner: A hard bofled egg cut into smail Dleces was placed in & bottle containing warm water heated to ninety-elght degrees (or blood heat), one of these Tablets was then placed in the bottle and the proper temperature main- talned for three hours and a half, at the end of which time the egg was as completely digested as it would have been in a healthy stomach. This experiment was undertaken to demonstrate that what it would do in the bottle it would 8lso do In the stomach, hence its unquestionable value in the cure of dyspepsia and weak diges- tlon. Very few people are free from some form of indigestion, but scarcely two will have the same symptoms. Some will suffer most from distress after eating, bloating from gas in the stomach and bowels, others have acid dyspepsia or heartburn, others palpitation or headaches, sleeplessness, pains in chest and under shoulder blades, extreme nervousness as in nervous dys- pepsia, but they all have same cause, failure to properly digest what eaten. The stomach must have rest and assistance, and Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets give it both, by digesting the food for it and in a short time it fs restored to its normal action and Vigor. At same time the Tablets are so harmless that a child can take them with beefit.

WEIGHTY PAPER, - THIS PROTOGOL Panama Canal Report Is a Very Lengthy Document. ‘WASHINGTON, Feb. 15—The Panama canal protocol, which has been in course of preparation for several weeks at the hands of Dr. Silva, the Colombian Minis- ter here; Herran, the first secretary of legation, and F. W. Wistis-Duran, the special representative of the Department of Panama, now stafids completed in all essential respects. The protocol has been prepared in the Spanish language, and Herran will under- take its translation into English. It is probable it will not be turned over to Ad- miral Walker, chairman of the Isthmian Canal Commission, before next Thursday. The protocol consists of about twenty- five articles and is a very lengthy docu- ment. Admiral Walker, it is explained, has had no part-in the drawing up of the protocol, having decided to leave that matter_entirely to the representatives of the Colombian Government and to avoid any interference with their work before it is_completed. Dr. Silva will probably leave Washing- ton in ashort time for Bogota in order to set the provisions of the protocol before the officials at the seat of the Colombian Government and impart their significance in person. C. P. Treat, a rallroad constructor, ap- peared before the Committee on Inter- oceanic Canals to-day and gave informa- tion he had acquired while building ten miles of railroad in Nicaragua. He estl- mated the cost of building a railroad to Nicaragua Lake at®715,000 a mile. He sald there was no trouble about securing labor in Nicaragua, as there were no unions to interfere or cause strikes. Treat also said the health conditions of Nicaragua were better than Panama.

LONDON, Feb. 15.—Thanks to the as- siduity with which the royal family is patronizing them, the theaters, with few exceptions, are doing well. “Mice and Men” has been particularly successful, and its lease of the Lyric Theater will be prolonged until August 16. ‘““Arizona” has not been quite living up to expectations in the way of full houses, thcugh King Edward's appreciation of the play may turn the tide in its favor. The famous Old Globe Theater has been or- dered to be shut up in March, as the County Council will then begin its de- molishment to make way for new street improvements. In consequence of the un- | expected shortness of its lease of life, “The Heel of Achilles” will be withdrawn February 19, Julla Neilson and Fred Terry then substituting a revival of “Sweet Nell of Old Drury.” At the Ave- nue Theater “The Cigarette Maker's Ro- mance” ended its: run to-night.

Some of the most promi- nent leaders of this sect are Danes. Danish missionaries who have been sent | to work in their native land have not been well recetved in Denmark.
