as an eventual outcome of the present

rights to the throne against the fun

Their. James H., died in exile at st.
Germans In 1901, being succeeded In
his rights by his eldest son, James,
commonly called the Chevalier De st.
George. The latter was proclaimed
king and recognized as such by the
majority OF the people of the realm
and also by the foreign powers. He
exercised his rights. issued proclama-
ions and numbered among his sub
jects some of the greatest men in
church and state. However. he never
reigned i'm fact, having been excluded
by the act of the settlement passed in
a convention sitting an a parliament in

WILL HOLD THE ISLANDS
The Government Determined to
Annex the Philippines.
OF THE POLICY
Prosperity to Be Brought to theI Islands
by . Reduction Of the Ruinous
Taxetton More Trans
ports Needed

Chicago, June 10.-A special to the
Tribune ron Washington says: From
information that has just come to light
1t appears that the administration has
determined upon a state policy concern
ing the Philippines. 1t is thee evident in
tention Of this government to annex the
islands. This policy has not been hastily
decided upon and it was outlined before
Admiral Dewey began the operations
which rave been brought to SO satisfac-
tory a stage. 1t will be operative as soon
as Hawaii 10 annexed. This In
q measure for the vigor with which he
president IL pushing the annexation of
Hawaii. The Philippine policy will then
be outlined to the powers.
Shortly before Admiral Dewey was
ordered to take the Philippines United
States Consul Williams, at Manila, was
instructed by the state department to
collect all information, statistics. ETC.,
concerning the Spanish system of X
ton In the islands, their peculiar sources
Of revenue, etc, and to forward the in
formation to Washington at once.
Assisted by Vice Consul Duland, he
hurriedly compiled the desired data and
his report came into possession Of the
state department three weeks age AS
q result a revised system Of taxation is
being formed and it is nearly completed
now.A force of IL clerks has been work.
ing upon the facts sent by Consul WILL
Jams. and upon their work being COM
pleted the new system will be promul-
gated by the president to the proper
authorities.
In brief. the proposed plan of taxation
is to remove entirely the present tax i'm
posed upon house goods. beasts Of bur-
den and native products and to substi-
tute reasonable property and poll taxes
similar to those enacted In this country.
No poll tax will be levied Upon women.
Import duties to the Philippines will be
lowered and almost cut in half. A num-
Der of native products will be admitted
ulations calculated to protect home in
dustries where affected.
1t is also proposed to regulate the
wage scale In the island Philippine
labor is now rated at from 5 to 20 cents
per day. A minimum scale of 30 cents
will be in force. BY this means the
revenues Of the island will be cut to
about SO, 900, 900. 1t Is believed by eco
nomical experts that this new order of
things will give new zest to commercial
affairs in the islands and eventually
put the tax revenues far above the $780,
900. 900 now realized by Spain.
The government Is now considering
the appointment OF an official collector
Of customs. who shall be dispatched to
the and to ~inaugurate the new sys-
TEN with one OF the expeditions. 1t is
believed that the selection of such an
official has already been made, but there
is no definite information concerning his
identity.
