Mr.. THAYER TO RETIRE.
Democratic Representative of Republi-
can Stronghold Declined Renom-
ination

Mr.. J. r. Thayer. the Democratic
Representative from the Republican
Third district of Massachusetts, who
counts Senator Hoar among his constit-
Uents. has announced that he will not
again be a candidate for Congress.
Mr.. Thayer came into national promi-
nence as the successor and vanquisher
Of Mr.. Joseph II. Walker. several times
chairman of the Committee on Banking
and Currency, and who both in 1898 and
1900 carried by substantial maiorities
that Republican stronghold.
In 1898 he defeated Mr.. Walker. re-
ceiving 11.167 votes to 11.00S for that
financial authority. At the same cleo
tion the Republican candidate for gov
ernOr received in the district 1880
votes, and the candidate who ran on the
same ticket with Mr.. Thayer 7.155.
In 1900 the successful candidates vote
was 16,C39, and that of c. G. Washburn.
his Republican opponent. 15.509.
The Mckinley electors, at the same
time, received in that district 1866
votes, and the Bryan electors Il OBJ.
For governor, Crane, Republican. re-
ceived 1889 votes. and Paine, Demo
crat. 9,51S. Notwithstanding this fiaE-
tering showing. which is probably un-
cqualed in the country, Mr.. Thayer will
retire at the end of this Congress. He
says his duty to his family and the de-
mands of his business interests do not
justify him in longer remaining in po-
.tical life.

PHILIPPINE BILL
NOW BEFORE HOUSE
Vote to Be Taken on Meas
ure by End of Month.
Two Legislative Branches Differ on the
Number of Points-Minority
Has a Report.

Representative Cooper of Wisconsin
/ chairman Of the Committee on Insular
/ Affairs. yesterday reported to the House
the Philippine civil government bill. The
committee at its session yesterday voted
70 strike out all after the enactng
clause in the bill. which recently passed
the Senate. and to substitute therefor
committee.
There are two important differences
between the two bills. The Senate meas
ure provides for no lower house of leg
isiature in the Philippines but merely
continues in force the present govern
ment of the Philippine Commission, and
making the government ciyi. instead of
military.
Favor Two Branches.
The House bill provides for Legisla-
ture. the upper branch Of which to be
the Philippine Commission. and the low
er branch, or the House Of Delegates. a
popular assembly to be composed Of
members elected by the Filipino people,
and representing not more than 100 or
less. and fifty districts into which the
islands are TO be divided.
Upon the matter of civil government
the House bill is regarded as more thor
ough and liberal than the Senate bill
Another essential difference between
the TWO measures is the provision for .
currency Tor the islands The senate
bill establishes the circulating medium
upon silver basis, while the House bill
fixes the gold standard, and makes the
4 4 81 % . ha nj tod Cfaf, L..
basis.
Minority Has a Substitute.
At the committee meeting prior to the
agreement to report the bill the minor
ity members offered their substitute
',hich provides for the withdrawal of
tAe United States from the islands at
the end Of four years. This was defeat
ed in committee by a party vote.
The measure will be taken up in the
House for consideration next Thursday. |

liscussion-tive to general debate. and |
