CHANGE in THE PLAN.
Gov. Taft Decides to Remain in the
Philippines.
Judge william II. Day, McKiniey's
First Secretary of state, to Sue
ceed Justice shfras on the
supreme Bench.

Washington, Jan. 14.-After mature
consideration, IL 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 members
of his cabinet, and with Vice Governor
Luke +. Wright, who has been In this
country for two months. For several
weeks IL has been regarded as settled
that Gov. Taft would return TO this
country, perhaps in few months, TO
become n justice Of the United States
supreme court. President Roosevelt
indicated TO Gov. Taft in letter dis
patched to the Philippines more than
a month ago that he could have the
appointment 10 the supreme bench if
he desired il. 1t was the presidents
purpose TO name Gen. Wright as civil
governor Of the Philippines.

Asks 90 Remain.

Gov. Taft's ambition has been TO
round out his career as n justice OF the
United States supreme court, but he
has become imbued so entirely with
the spirit of the great work 10 be ac-
complished in the Philippines and so
perfectly in sympathy with the ideals
of the best classes OF the inhabitants
that he hesitated TO relinquish his
post at this time, even TO accept the
distinguished honor the president of
fered TO confer on him. Tuesday, in
response TO the presidents letter Of
fering TO him the supreme justiceship,
a cablegram was received from him
suggesting, with n sincere apprecia
ton OF the tender made TO him by the
president, that il might be better for
him, in view of all circumstances, 10
remain where he was.
After this il was announced unof-
ficially, but entirely authoritatively,
that Gov. Taft would remain indefi-
nitely as civil governor Of the Philip
pines. During the afternoon, subse-
auent to the cabinet meeting, Secre
tary Root had a long conference with
the president, at which the Philippine
situation was canyassed in all its
phases. Many serious problems are
yet to be solved with respect to the
islands and the administration is look
ing with confidence 10 Gov. Taft TO
reach such n solution OF them as will
be satisfactory to the people of this
country, 10 the Filipinos and TO the
world
