THEY ARE MAKING TROUBLE
GERMANS SUPPLYING THE INsUR-
GENTS WITH ARMS.
They Came straight From the Imperial
Goyernment-The Insurgents
Must BE Disarmed.

San Francisco. Sept. 27.-The Evening
Post reiterates its former stories re-
garding the supplying OF arms to the
Filipinos by the German government.
and is positive that its authority is
absolutely correct.
The Post published an interview with
its informant to-day in which he says
that he is in a position to tell the full
story for the reason that he is financial-
ly interested in the plot and has ac-
tually been a party to the scheme. He
says that he is interested in the Ger
man Philippine trade 10 the extent OF
nearly a million dollars, and that for
Is years Germany has been working
among the insurgents for her own ben
eft. and he also told the Post that there
would never have been a revolution had
IL not been for the German govern
ment.
Continuing. he said: The arms that
have been supplied came from the i'm
perial government. and were furnished
through the trading companies. in
which I am interested. so as to conceal
the German hand.
The arms that are now being car
ried in by insurgent and German ves-
sells are from the same source. Aguin-
aldo. who accepted a petty bribe to
desert the cause of the insurgents. has
not the money TO arm and equin a big
army. and it has taxed his resources to
furnish supplies alone.
My information is entirely authentic
as IL comes from high German officials.
who have large interests in the Phil
ippines. Germany is supplying the
rifles, ammunition and machine guns
that are being landed, and trouble Will
commence when the insnrgents are
fully equipped. Americas safety lies
in disarming the insurgents as a move
toward the restoration Of peace"

SECOND GEORGIA MAY STAY IN.
SIXTY PER CENT. OF MEN IN sA-
VANNAH BATTALION FAVOR 1T.

Half of the Officers Want to BE Mus
tered Out-senator BacOn's Efforts
Watched with Interest-Prepara-
lions Going on for the Mastering
Out of the Regiment Next Month.
Efforts to have the Second Georgia Regi-
ment retained in the service are being con
tlnued. Senator A. o. Bacon is now In
Washington trying to get the department
to agree to plan he has submitted that
is calculated to give satisfaction to all con-
cerned, allowing those who choose to do
so 10 leave the service and those who pre-
fer to remain.
There is an even division of the officers
of the Savannah battalion of the regiment.
Half Of them want to stay in the service,
and win do so if they can, while the 9TH
er half wants to get out. The officers say
there is at least 60 per cent. of the men
who would stay This is quite an increase
in the percentage over what it was two
months ago. A number of those most anx-
ious to get out of the regiment have Sc
cured discharges and this has raised the
percentage.
Lieut.. Col. Garrard and the other officers
knew nothing of the visit of some of the
officers of the First and Second Regiments
to Senator Bacon at Macon to induce him
10 try to get the war department to take
those of the two regiments who desired to
do so and let them make up another, the
officers to be selected from both regi-
ments.
MOI one of the Savannah officers has
raised finger to try to have the regiment
kept in the service, and two of them are
authority for the statement that they DO
not propose to do so.
II will soon be time for the First Bat
talon to reassemble after furloughs OF
thirty days at Camp Brown to be mus
tered out of the service, unless something
is done to keep it in. Nov. is the date
set for the men to gather, and rations
have been secured up to Nov. 19, by which
time il is thought all the work of mus
tering out will have been completed. The
mastering officer, who will have control
of affairs at the camp until the compa-
mics are dismissed will arrive in few
days
col. Garrard has made arrangements to
bring d lot of tent floors down from the
cavalry camp at Meldrim. He had TWEEN
~ floors brought down some time ago,
and eighty more are to be had for the
use of the men during the time they will
be in camp. The railroads have gener-
ously agreed to bring the floors down free
of cost
All the men will be instructed to bring
their civilian overcoats into camp with
them The weather may be cold enough
to make them necessary. A number of
double blankets have already been sent
out from the Guards supply, and addi-
tional ones will be loaned the soldiers to
enable them to keep perfectly comfortable
