PHILIPPINE MONEY
TO BE RECOINED
BY Associated Press.

BY Associated Press.
WASHINGTON, Nov. 24.-Brigadier
General Edwards, chief of the bureau
of insular affairs. and Charles A.
Conant of New York. who was mem
Der of the commission which framed
the Philippine currency system, today
presented to Secretary of War Taft a
plan for the recoinage of Philippine
silver money.
The plan will not be made public
until it has been adopted by the Phil
ippine commission and approved by the
president.
The recoinage is to reduce the per-
centage of silver to an amount less
than it's bullion value in order to put
an end to it's being melted. The bureau
of insular affairs considered the ad-
visibility of reducing the weight of
coin without decreasing the percentage
of silver, and it is believed that this
is the plan that will be recommended.
The plan will be cabled to the Phil
ippine commission.

PASADENA, Nov 24.-Plans for the
coming Tournament of Roses are rap
idly shaping and have progressed so far
that the committees which will have
charge of preparing the floats for the
several schools are announced this
evening 1t is the plan this year to
have committee of adults take charge
I'm each of the districts and leave to
them the securing of entries for the big
annual parade. This Is a novelty, for
in the past this matter has been al
lowed to take its own course.
In the Columbia school district Har
ley f. Newell is appointed chairman;
in the Madison district, Clarence Cham
berlain; in the Wilson district, Judge
j. II. Merriam; i'm the Washington dis
trict. M. d, Painter; in the Mckinley
district, Emil Keyser; Lincoln district,
Joseph Welch; Grant district, II. NJ.
Cole; Altadena district. F. S. Allen;
Garfield Linda Vista and Franklin dis
tricts, no committees named yet.
These men will figure out the details
of the decorations and thereby take a
vast amount of work and responsibility
from the overworked shoulders of the
teachers, who will have the children
in charge. The children are to figure
more largely this year in the parade
than ever. Heretofore the vehicles in
which the children rode have been dec
GRATED, but aside from uniformity of
costume the ones in the floats and six
in-hands have not been speciolly out
fitted for the parade. This year, how
ever, the principal decorations will be
floral dresses for the girls and floral
suits for the boys.
OF course the vehicles will be
trimmed and decorated as usual, but
it is thought that the effect will be
made more complete if the children are
decorated as well.
The plan of changing the chariot race
course into full half mile track has
practically been abandoned for this
year. The tournament association has
purchased sufficient land to make the
change, but has not the ready money
to pay the cost of turning the track
so that the stretch will be due north
and south instead of partly east and
west.

BY Associated Press.

SEATTLE, Nov. 24.-United States
Marine Inspectors Whitney and Tur-
ner have declared their intention to put
stop to the practice of captains not
carrying licensed pilots from collecting
fares.
1t has developed from the testimony
taken at the Dix investigation that sew
eral masters were in the habit of leav-
ing their boats in charge of the mate
for at least half an hour while they
took the fares from the passengers.
In the future if the captains desire to
act as pursers they must take the
tickets at the gangway before the ves-
sci sails, otherwise they will be likely
to lose their papers. At the morning
session of the investigation several sur
viVors were placed on the stand.
They told how they had been picked
up by the steamship Jeanne after the
Dix went down. The hearing will be
continued Monday.

fill the want.

be in the mission style like the present
building. The grounds around the
depot will be paved or oiled.
