JUDGE TAFT TO REMAIN
VIII Continue indefinitely As Civil
Governor Of Philippines.

Washington, Jan. 14.-After mature
consideration, it has been decided by
the president that Judge Taft shall
remain in the Philippines as civil gov
ernor. The decision was reached only
after the president had discussed the
Philippine question thoroughly with
Secretary Root and the other mem
bers of the cabinet, and with Vice
Governor Luke E. Wright, who has
been in this country for two months.
Governor Taft is known, as one high
official expressed il, 'to be thoroughly
wrapped up in his work in the Philip
pines" Yesterday, in response to the
presidents letter offering to him the
supreme justiceship, a cablegram was
received from him suggesting, with a
sincere appreciation of the tender
made to him by the president, that 1t
might be better for him, in view OF all
the circumstances, to remain where
he was. After this 1t was announced
unofficially, but entirely authoritative
ly, that Governor Taft would remain
indefinitely as civil governor of The
Philippines. Many serious problems
remain yet to be solved with respect
to the islands. and the administration
is looking with confidence to Governor
Taft to reach such solution of them
as will be satisfactory to the people
of this country, to the Filipinos and
to the world.

ply. The situation has reached an acute
stage and has resulted in great suffer-
Ing and hardship on the poor of the
cities, whose earnings are insufficient
to enable them TO pay the excessive
prices now being charged for fuel, and
1t is subjecting the general public to
great Inconvenience.
TO relieve the situation and allie
viate, as far as possible, the suffering
now being endured, is the duty of
every one connected with the produc-
ton of coal. With this end in view
we are prompted to address this com
munication to all members OF our
union and request that they cooperate
with the management of the mines in
an effort to increase the production of
coal. The gravity of the situation is
such as to require that every mine
worker shall exert himself and use
every means at his command to this
end
Upon reading this communication in
the columns of the daily papers local
unions should hold meetings and de-
wise means whereby the daily output
Of the mines may be increased. These
efforts should be continued until the
weather moderates and the great ne
cessity for fuel shall have ceased"
