q LONDON, Aug. 2S,-The Manila cor
respondent Of the Times" says:
THE situation, although undoubtedly
unsatisfactory, remains unchanged,
pending a final settlement. Aguinaldo
proposes to remove his headquarters
Immediately to the large town of Ma
noles, province of Bulacan, situated on
the railway line, twenty miles north Of
Manila. There he will shortly assemble
a congress chosen from the leading Fill
ipinos, who favor the insurgent cause.
He further intends to send a represent
ative to Paris to argue his claims for
the establishment Of an insurgent re-
public.
"Manolos is an excellent strategic
point, covering q rice and tobacco dis
trict, besides the route to Biacnabato,
where the Spaniards were formerly
obliged to make a treaty by which they
purchased a cessation of hostilities.
The movement was probably neces-
sary, partly because Aguinaldo was fast
losing his influence in the province of
Cavite. where the insurgents evidently
expected to be permitted to occupy Ma
Mia conformity with the Americans.
Considerable dissatisfaction Is apparent
among the insurgent troops and a frank
expression Of opinion is frequently
heard that Aguinaldo is again selling
the cause"
