TO LEAVE PHILIPPINES.
Judge Taft Says Archbishop Chappellc Has
Promised That tho Frlars Shall Not
Return to the Provinces.

Cebu, Island of Cebu, April H.
Judge Taft, president of the Philip
pine commission, says that Mgr. Chap
pelle, the papal delegate to the Phil
ippine islands, told him that the friars
were not to return to the provinces
and that only sufficient number of
them were now in Manila to act as
instructors in the colleges. This dis
poses of the troublesome "friar ques-
ton"
Cebu is the first island to be visited
by the commission upon which the
instruction is still active. 1t is UNI
safe to leave the city of Cebu without
an armed escort. The delegates from
the towns of the island who are now
here are anxious for the establish
ment of provincial government,
