ILOILO CAPTURED
Beleaguered City Has Finally Fallen
Into Insurgents Hands, and Agui-
naldo's Flag Is Flying.
DELAYS In COMMUNICATION
The Insurgents Will Now Have An
Opportunity to Either Oapitulate
to the American Forces or
Fight Them.

Washington, Dec. 2S.--The following
message came from General Otis at
noon today: Manila, Dec. 27.--Adju-
tant General, Washington: sent Colo
mel Potter on fast vessel to Iloilo 24th
inst, to communicate with Spanish
General Rios, who evacuated on the
evening Of the oath, Potter arriving 80
hours later. The insurgents took pos
session of the city on the 26th and Pot
ter found Aguinaldo's flag flying. |
cannot now report the probable results,
and will not hear from there for four
days as there is no cable communica-
ton. The Spanish forces evacuated all
the stations in the southern islands eX-
cept Zamboanga, Mindanao, by orders,
they say from Madrid
1t is presumed General Otis will de-
mand the surrender of IloilO into his
hands, and this demand may at once
raise the issue between the insurgents
and our own government for the pos
session of the islands.
This morning United States Consul
Pratt at Singapore, cabled the State
department: "Iloilo was taken on the
24th and the Spanish fled to Borneo."
The American expedition which left
Manila to go to Ilolo would scarcely
have had time to have reached there by
the oath. So the inference is that the in
are in possession. Color is lent
to this belief by the fact reported in
one telegram that the Spaniards re-
treated to strongly fortified town on
the island of Mindanao. The War de-
partment still declines to make public
General Otis telegram of yesterday,
but there is no doubt he is meeting with
difficulty in his efforts to secure the re-
lease of the Spanish prisoners held by
the Filipinos.

AN ULTIMATUM TO
 SPAIN IN PROSPECT

NEW YORK, Nov. 14.- The Wash ington correspondent of the Herald sends the following: Chairman Day to the Spanish Commissioners on We'd nesday, peremptorily demanding the relinquishment by Spain of the sover- eighty over the Philippines.
 This note will not be in the form of an ultimatum, nor is it intended to be such, but the administration Is tired of Spanish procrastination and intends the matter shall be settled promptly.
 It was learned definitely to-day that the instructions which were sent to the Peace Commissioners on Saturday last were very emphatic in declaring that there should be no further discussion of the question of the right of the United States to take the Philippine Is- lands, but Snain should finally an- nounce whether or not she would agree to the American demand to cede the archipelago.
 These instructions are intended to strengthen the hand of the American Commissioners in pressing their de- mand upon Senor Rios and his asso- ciates.
 It is expected the Spaniards will withdraw on the plea that they con- sider it necessary to consult their Gov ernment and an adjournment for few days will be permitted, but at the next sitting of the commission if the Span- iardS continue to press the discussion of the question, an ultimatum will be submitted, which will finally determine whether this Government shall peace fully or forcibly possess itself of the PhtliDDineS
