No CHANCES TO BE TAKEN.
Plan to Continue Mckinley In
Charge OF the Philippines.

Arrangements for carrying out the pro-
visions of the Army Appropriation bill
applying to the government of the Philip
pines, are being made by the Secretary
of War with "A view to avoiding any
complications which may result from the
technical change of authority. The pres
ent authority exercised by the President
in the Philippines is based upon his power
as Commander-in-Chie of the Army to
maintain Il military form of government.
When the Army Appropriation bill be-
comes law. this authority win be based
upon that part of the Constitution that
authorizes Congress to make laws for the
government of territory belonging to the
United States. Under the Spooner amend
ment all military, civil, and judicial
powers necessary to govern the Philip
pine Islands shall. until otherwise pro-
vided by Congress, be vested in such per-
son and persons. and shall be exercised
in such manner as the President OF the
United States shall direct
This amendment. therefore. becomes au-
thority for the Presidents future acts
in the Philippines.
IL was acknowledged yesterday at the
War Department that it is not the pur-
pose Of the President to change at this
time the present form of government.
but It is intended to continue the present
military control of the islands until 1t is
considered advisable to establish a civil
government under the direction of Civil
Governor Already plan of civil gov
eminent is being prepared by the Secre-
tary of War, based upon recommended
lions OF Judge Taft. Chairman of the
Philippine Commission. Meanwhile a
statement will be prepared and forwarded
30 the Philippine Commission and General
Macarthur. providing for the mainte-
nance of military form of government
under authority from the President, dele
gated to him by Congress.
This statement will be sent to Manila
in advance of the signing of the Army
bill. so as to avoid any in
term between the exercise of authority
as Commander-in-C of the Army or
the carrying out of the power vested in
the President by Congress-
