He Dwells at Length on Value of the Philippines, but Says Their Reten tion is a Future Question. Washington, Jan. 27. Senator Frye's speech in the executive se5Sion today did much to solidify a fast growing sentiment in favor of disposin0' of the peace treaty on February 6 by un qualified ratification, while the speech of Senator Caffery in opposition had little effect' toward stemming the tido in favor of the treaty., Ratification now see ma certain, and its advocates announce with confidence that a good sized margin over the nec essary sixty votes is already in sight.
