X to be a STILL DEBATING ISLAND TARIFF Question of Philippine Bill Occupies the Attention of House for Many Hours WASHINGTON, Jan. 13.—There were nine speeches in the House to-day on the Philippine tariff bill, consuming nearly six and a half hours. Three of the speak- ers opposed the bill and six favored it. Those who argued for the measure were Gaines of Tennessee, Thomas of North Carolina, who included a plea for the Southern farmer and demanded reci- procity to benefit the cotton seed ol in- dustry; Needham of California, Gagrett of Tennessee, Gardner of Massachusetts and Scott of Kansas. The opponents to the measure were Young of Michigan, Loud of Minnesota and Morris of Ne- braska. Detailing the possibility of Philippine legislation, Needham of California favored the pending bill as carrying into effect the settled policy of the Republican party. he saw no imminent danger to any Amer- ican industry as a result of the bill, and said the Pacific Coast has been built up 8o greatly by Orlental trade that it owed a debt of gratitude to the Philippines which they could pay by legislation fa- vorable to the islands. The Philippine tariff bill, according ‘to Morrls of Nebraska, was -erroneously named. He took Payne’s statement, “There 1s some sentiment in 1t," and satd if that was'a good reason for legislation he”wanted to call the attention of the House leadérs to the fact that there was sentiment for the tariff legislation on the Democratic side. Surely this sentiment was a8 worthy of recognition as the sen- timent for the Filipino. In Arizona and New Mexico there was unanimous senti- ment_against joint statehood, vet it was to be forced ‘upon them. The debate for the day was closed by Scott of Kansas, who said he would vote for the bHl as assuring the proper measure of justice to the Philippine Isi- ands, which he believed would always remain a portion of the United States. —_—————— ARMY ORDERS. ./ ‘- WASHINGTON, Jan. 13.—Captain George A.

NEW YORK, Jan. 18—Mark Twain has solved a national problem. He has found a substitute for the most maligned and unpronounceable word in the new lan- guage of automobiling—‘‘chauffeur.” This word, which he declares is said in nine different ways, all of them wrong, he ‘would abolish and establish “‘mahout” in its place. Mark Twain announces this in a letter to Harper’s Weekly, in which this quota- tion is given: “Scarcely had Watchman Fowler taken his post at the gate when a procession of strange creatures appeared. ‘Halt! Who goes there! ejaculated the watch- man, when a fat negro approached, labori- ously leading a thin bow-legged goat ‘Dis heah beast is Old Ironsides, suh,’ ex- plained the goat's mahout.—From “Dan,” the bulldog, in the Times.” “When I read this,” the letter says, I recognized with a thrill the right word had been found at last—'mahout.’ The 'mobile, that majestic, that impressive drail, is our elephant; he is in a class by himself, like the jungle monarch. To be his master, pilot or compeller is a post of solemn and awful dignity and danger and it does seem to me that 'the measly word ‘chauffeur’ does not properly fit the case. * ‘Chauffeur’ is a good enough word when strictly confined to its modest and rightful place, as you will see by what Littre says about it. 1 translate: ‘A chauffeur is the firer-up on the street corner peanut roaster; in English, stoker.’ A good enough word, you see; but when we come to apply it to the admiral of the thunderous 'mobile or of the mighty elephant we realize that it is inadequate. “No, ‘stoker’ is not the thing; ‘chauf- feur’ is not the thing; ‘mahout’ is the thing—‘mahout’ is the word we need. Be- sides, there is only one way of saying ‘mahout,” whereas there are nine ways of saying ‘chauffeur’ and none of them cor- rect either.” —_———————— Decision Alds Lawyer Hummel. NEW YORK, Jan. 13.—Justice Wood- ward of the Appellate Division of the Supreme Court in Brooklyn to-day granted a certificate of reasonable doubt in the case of Abraham H. Hum- mel, the lawyer convicted of sonspiracy in the Dodge-Morse divorce case. This means that the case is to go to the division on appeal.
