TAFT WILL GO
TO PHILIPPINES
THE PHILIPPINE ISLANDS TO
HAVE A SELF-GOVERNING
PARLIAMENT.
Secretary of War Is TO Go to Islands
for Purpose of Superintending
Formation of Government.

Washington, Oct. 31.-The Presi-
dent is prenaring to redeem his
promise to rhe Philippine people
through Secretary Taft that they
shall have a Parliament of their own
conditioned upon their good behavior
for term of two years, and it is
understood that Secretary Taft him
self will proceed to the Philippines
next spring to witness the installa-
ton of the new form of representa-
tive government. Marcn 81, 1876,
the Philippine census was published
and consequently two years from
that date-March 81, 1907-undeI
the terms of the act of Congress, tn,
President will direct the Philippine
Commission to call a general election
for the choice of delegates to what
will be known as the Philippine AS
sembly. This body is to take over all
legislative powers heretofore exer-
cised by the Philippine Commission
in all parts of the archipelago not in
habited by Moros and non-Christian
tribes.
AS this date draws near the Phil
ippine people are showing signs of
agitation and to the officials here 1t is
evident that they are expecting
some benefits that cannot at once be
realized. For instance, the Assembly
of Provisional Governors, recently in
session in Manila, with the view OF
arranging the preliminaries for the
meeting Of the Philippine Assembly
Is reported to have recommended
that the suffrage be widely extended
1t is pointed out here that this is
not possible for the reason that the
act of Congress under which the AS
sembly will be convened expressly
states the qualifications of voters.
These, in brief are that the voter
must be at least 23 years of age, must
be able to read and write either
Spanish of English; must own a GER
tain small amount Of property or
must have been in the past an Office
holder under the Spanish Govern
ment. The new Assembly will con-
sist of two houses to be known as
the Philippines Commission and the
Philippine Assembly, the latter to
consist OF not less than fifty nor more
than one hundred members. 1t is
probable that the present commits
sion will be merged in the upper
house.

PRINCE ANGRY OVER MARRIAGE
Frenchman Objects TO Criticism OF
Wedding With California Girl.

New York, Oct. 31-Prince Robert

gust IA at Chicago to Miss Estele
Alexander of California incurred the
displeasure of his family in Paris,
was indignant when he learned today
of the attitude taken by his relatives
in connection with the alleged illegal
marriage.
The family of the prince in a COM
munication to the Paris edition of the
New York Herald. which has been
cabled here for publication, stated
that according to the laws Of France
the marriage was not valid because
the Princes divorce from his former
wife had not been approved and that
his second marriage has not been re-
corded according to the French laws,
Prince de Broglie said the marriage
is legal under the laws of Illinois and
showed letter from the French
Vice-Consuul at Chicago stating that
the marriage has been recorded with
his Government and was legal under
the French law.
