insurgents Demand $40, OOC
From the Spaniards as
a Ransom.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 15.-Up to this
time the officials have not been able to
ascertain the number of Spanish prison
ers held by Philippine insurgents, but
they are certain the estimate from Mad
rid of 10000 is very much too high.
Admiral Dewey looked into the condi-
ton of these prisoners held by Aguin-
aldo at Cavite early in the war; and
again recently on the report that these
prisoners were ill treated. He replied
to this last charge that the prisoners
were as we'll treated as the circum-
stances of the insurgents would allow,
but gave no estimate of the number,
but it is thought the number
of prisoners held by the Filipinos
would be about 5000. The peace COM
missioners gave no immediate prom
Use of the release of these prisoners.
They did give the promise of the release
and repatriation of those prisoners
taken by Otis at the fall of Manila, but
as to the prisoners held by the insur-
gents they stated that this government
can only act effectively 80 far as our
lines are extended. Efforts have been
made to induce the insurgents to re-
lease their prisoners, but we cannot 60
beyond the limit Of good Offices and
could not compel their release.
