LAND OF THE FRIARS.
No knowledge of a Proposed Com
mission.

Secretary Root said today that he had no
knowledge OF a purpose on the part of the
government to send special commission
to Rome to negotiate with the Vatican for
the purchase Of the property Of the friars In
the Philippines. A report to that effect was
published this morning, which report fur
ther stated that the President had selected
Governor Taft and Bishop Thomas OGor-
man as the commission. 1t was also stated
that the purpose Of the mission to Rome
was to agree upon price to be paid by the
United States for the property owned by the
friars in the Philippines, and 1t was esti-
mated that the settlement would probably
involve $S,OOO,OOO or $40 900 600 Secretary
Root said that no such commission had
been appointed, and, far he was
aware, no such action was contemplated.
1t is known that the President, the Secre-
tary of War, Governor Taft and other Of
fcals directly interested in the govern
ment of the Philippines favor the acquire
ment of the valuable lands held by the
frars, but far as known no negotiations
to Vat end have been opened with the Vati-
can. 1t is highly probable, however, that
the representatives Of the Catholic Church
are In communication with the papal
authorities on the subject
The policy of the administration with re-
gard to the requirement Of the friars' prop
erty in the Philippines is embodied in the
Cooper bill now before the committee on
vides that the government Of the Islands
may acquire, by the exercise of the right
Of eminent domain, any lands owned or
held by religious orders, associations or
private individuals in such large tracts or
parcels as. In the opinion Of the commits
sion. injuriously affect the welfare Of the
people OF the Philippine Islands. For the
purpose OF providing funds to acquire these
lands the Philippine government is empow-
cred to borrow money and to issue and sell
registered Or coupon bonds OF the govern
ment Of the islands for such amount as
may be necessary. bearing interest at the
rate Of per cent, payable at the pleasure
Of the Philippine government. in not less
than five or more than thirty years.
The act provides that the money realized
from the sale of these bonds shall be ap-
piled to the acquisition Of the property au-
thorized by the act and for no other pur-
pose.
The friars own about 100000 acres Of land
in the Philippines. In his last annual re-
port Secretary Root recommended that this
land be purchased by this government and
sold to the natives.
Gov. Taft was shown the dispatch today
but he declined to discuss the subject.
