THE call of ex-senator Hill on me late yes

PREFERS AMERICAN PRELATE
GOVERNOR TAFT SUGGESTS BISHOP
MONTGOMERY FOR APOSTOLIC
DELEGATE AT MANILA.

Rome July 19-Interest in the Philippine
question now centres in the appointment Of an
apostolic delegate 20 Manila, as it is considered
that the selection will be an indication of the
real intentions of the Holy See. Governor Taft
has unoficiaIly intimated to the Vatican that
the appointment OF an American prelate would
be preferred, and mentioned the name of the
Right Rev. George Montgomery, Bishop of the
Diocese of Monterey and Los Angeles. It is
thought to be impossible to select Bishop
Thomas OGorman, of Sioux Falls. S. D., be-
cause OF his participation in the negotiations
here. Doubt is expressed. however, about the
Vatican appointing an American. as the opin-
ion prevails in Pontiical circles that an en-
tirely independent delegate is required TO deal
properly with the questions at issue
