WHAT SORT OF MONEY
WILL FILIPINOS HAVE
That Is Question That Is Concerning the United
.. States Congress

the House Mr.. Hill of Connecticut and
Mr.. Fowler of New Jersey Joined
hands with the Democrats in favor of
the extension of the American system
in its present shape to the islands, and
the result was that the House passed
the Democratic and not the Republican
bill.
In order to put through the bill
which has been prepared by the Senate
committee, and which will doubtless
be supported by the Republican menu
beers of the House committee, it will
be necessary for some of those Repub-
licans who voted with the Democrats
to change front 1t is possible, of
course that they can be whipped into
line though their arguments for the
extension of the American system to
the islands seem to appeal to popular
sentiment.
Among those who were most active
in influencing the House action was
Judge Maddox of Georgia, who is one
of the Democratic members of the
Committee on Insular Affairs. He made
a strong plea in favor of the extension
of the American coinage to the islands,
citing particularly the success of the
experiment in the same line in Porto
Rico and Hawaii. He also attacked
the provision in the bill for the issti-
ance of bonds to enable the Philippine
government to maintain the parity of
the silver
Gov. Taft, in his testimony before
the House Committee, presented this
objection to the proposition to extend
the American system to the islands,
The, objection to introducing the Amer
icana coinage just as it is, first, that it
might be difficult to put it there-pos-
sibly that is not so great an objection
but also, second, that it would intro
duce a violent change in the relative
values of things and of wages. Wages
have increased in the islands now, in
every province, to double what they
were before the Spanish war. In many
provinces they have increased to three
times what they were. Now, the Fill
Pine, like other Orientals, deals large
~ with names, and if you were to in
troduce the American peSo-that is
what he would call it-without any
declaration as to its equivalent at all,
but just make it a standard, he would
be very prone to insist that that was
the same thing that he is now receiv-
ing as the Mexican and Filipino peso,
and there would be at once discussion
as to wages and an increase in them.
Now of course, the increase in wages,
ordinarily if it comes normally, is an
excellent thing for the wage Garner,
and improves his condition and that
of the commonwealth, but after dou-
bling or trebling those wages, if you
again double the wage by the means
of the introduction of a new standard,
it would bring financial disaster to
the islands. And that is the danger
there would be in introducing a peso
the value of which is double the value
of the present peso.

TOURIST TRAVEL HEAVY.

Florida Times Union: Last winter

tions so far point to the travel this
wear far exceeding that of last. Up

of the number of tourists In Florida ex-
coed by large figures those for the cor
responding days of last year, and the

Washington, Jan. 30.-The uncer-
tainty over the Philippines coinage sit
uation is, at this writing, so thick that
it might be cut with a knife. The ac-
ton of the House majority, composed
particularly of the Democrats and a
few Republicans, in turning down the
currency bill reported from the House
Committee and substituting therefor
the minority bill, providing that the
American system of coinage shall be
extended to the islands, has disturbed
all calculations.
The Republican majority of both the
Senate and House committees had
agreed upon the extension of the gold
standard to the Philippine Islands and
the creation of Philippines silver
currency intended to take the place
of the present conglomeration of Mex
lean, Spanish and Filipino silver
which is doing duty in the islands.
The main purpose of the bill was to
provide first for a gold standard and
after that for a distinctive currency,
which could be kept in the islands
and relationship of which to gold
could be effectively regulated by the
government of the Philippines. To
do this silver coins, approximating in
size and appearance, the. coins with
which the people of the islands are
familiar were to be minted.
The main difference between the
House Dlan and the Senate plan was
that the Senate plan provided for a
gold peso of one-half the value of an
American gold dollar, which was to
be the standard in the islands, Amer
lean gold also being legal tender. This
gold peso proposition is fathered by
Senator's Lodge and Allison, but it also
has the Endorsement of some leading
commercial interests in the Philippines
and of some persons here who believe
1t would make the plan a more nearly
perfect one than to have the Ameri-
can dollar the legal standard
Nobody anticipated any particular
trouble in getting the majorities of the
Senate and the House together in favor
of one or the other of these plans, and
Gov. Wright and others who have been
here watching with interest everything
appertaining to the Philippine legisla-
ton had felt certain that a coinage
bill would be agreed upon without very
much delay, especially as the Demo-
Gratis of the Senate showed no dispo-
sition to organize a fight against this
legislation.
The House leaders did not for min
ute contemplate the possibility of trou-
BILE in putting through the bill support
ed by the ma jority of that committee.
When, however, the matter got before
