For jjjfl preB;.dnt, S-taator Foraker, in jsphatie language, to day declared that there is no intention to subject filipinoa by arma and to mnin jjin authority over them by frct. Xo tret acd to reaaou with them fil be the policy pursued, in the knn of a peaceful solution. In fortbersnae of that idea diplomacy i, to havo a fair trial Through commissioiins this government will B0 negotiate with the Filipiucs who are holding out against United States authority.

This does not mean that ha wilt ieoegniz8 tho Aguinaldo government U the government of the Philippine-;; but hn will, rrrv,h roi lioners, hear all that, th various. Were have to say, vnd will make V bown the purposes of th g-overn- ment to give tho Filipino looal government, and home rule to the ixtent of their desiree. He ia confi dent that the people will see in a little time how absolutely necessary it is for them to have the proteotion of the United S'aUe. Senator Foraker said eorae very ligeiffcaat things thie afternoon, lie ipofce, in a certain sen, by author ity, and eutiined the position of the Prisideat.

And finally remained the fourth course which was to hold the islands as the Preiidect bad done. And here the Sanator eaid that he felt authorized to declare that there wai no purpose to rule in the Philippines by force The authority of the United States was there for the benefit and protec tion of the people, and would be exerciied in that direction. AGTJINALDO POLICY. Tht Sscator said that he had no ijmpatby, and ho felt justified in siring the President had none, with that disposition manifested in some places to regard Aguinaldo as an outlaw. Aguinaldo and Gomez had both foujhfc for freedom Thej had beau allies of the United States in war. They would not be ignored i;i peace, but would be treated with tha consideration due them. The Senator declares that it was the purpose of the President to recej-niz-i the eervicas which the so called insurgents had rendered in the oauso of fresdotto, and not to Mppresa them with aa ex?rci?e of force. Senator Foraker made known in a forma! and in an authoritative way that there will be no firrutioir iu the I Philippines unless the followers of L Aguinaldo, inspired by bad advisers, 'hall aasumo the asrjjressive ginst United States forces.

"Thes mar,y disasters amoug wcol ea milli are not due merely to tee bad business conditions of th cur rent year Thc-y ere the culmination of a series of hort business at leas than living prices. In the yetr and a half since the new tariff berime operative the imports have tern the smallest in quantity for fifty yars and not of a character to disturb the market for stan! roods." The year's expprience has again Bharpiy raided the question whether it is not pOHible by concerted action to provide and enforce sme rmedy for the vicious methods of business which ha?e crept into tbe trade. There is no valid reasou wby a contract should not be current in this industry aa binding and tiaal as in any other." The secretary theu gave statistics showing the total foreiga value of imports cf woolens cf evry descrip t'oi for consumption under the present tariff, under the McKinley tariff and uadr tin Wilson tariff and said: "These liurs erj.ibla us to be sure that foreign goods ar no long er a surplus matter in th mirktt situation xc-pt as a few cf thoEe eightern moriths of old importations lmy bn h till ULSold."
