EXECUTION AT MANILA
DIR. Rial, Revolutist, Pub
licly Shot.
VIGOROUS REPRESSION POLICY
Rial Was the Author Cs tho Constitu-
tion of the Philippine League
A Noncombatant.

London, Jan. 1.-The Madrid CORE
spondent of the Standard says;
The government authorizes General
Polaveja, captain general of the Phil
ippiues, to borrow several million dol
lars from the banks at Manila and
Hong Kong, to continue the campaign
until the oortes meets.
DIR. Rizal was shot at Manila today
in the presence.of an immense crowd.
He WAS sentenced under General Pola-
veja's new policy of vi orous repres-
sion and summary carrying out of sem
tences. General Polaveja absented
himself during the execution. Great
precautions were taken to prevent a
popular demonstration.
/ DIR. Rizal reconciled himself with
the church of Rome, and begged hard
to be allowed to take part in a civil
marriage with his mistress. His re-
quest was refused, as we'll as the petit
tien of his relatives to be allowed to
take charge of the body, lest the fun
eral should be made pretext for a
demonstration.
On his trial by court-martial, DR.,
Rizal admitted he was the author of
the constitution of the Philippine
League, the object of which was revo-
lutionary, but denied that he had
taken any active part in the rebellion.
