AS TO PHILIPPINES
Unanimously Approve of Bill
Looking to the Independence
of the Islands by 1911.

WASHINGTON. D. c., April 21-The
Democrats of the house of representatives
held a caucus tonight to consider the
Philippine civil government bill agreed
on by the Democratic members of the
insular committee. The caucus lasted un-
til shortly before midnight, when reso-
luton by Representative Jones, of Vir-
ginia was adopted, unanimously approx
ing the minority bill and requesting the
Democratic members on the insuIar COM
mittee to confer with Democrats in order
to reconcile any difference existing as
to the details of a Philippine measure,
with a view of reaching an agreement
on one bill to be urged in both branches
of congress.
Before the adoption of this resolution,
the Democratic members of the insular
committee explained the terms of the four
separate Philippine measures now pro-
posed The Republican bill in the senate
provides a temporary form of civil gov
ernment, in effect continuing the pres
ent system, The Republican house bill
proposes a complete form of civil gov
ernment, with Philippine legislature.
The Democratic bills, both in the SEN
ate and in the house, look to ultimate
independence of the islands, but the house
measure goes more in detail on the period
preceding independence, fixing July 4,
1911, as the date for complete insular
independence. It is with view to re-
conciling the details of the two Demo-
cratic measures that the resolution were
adopted tonight.
