Manila, June n, via Hong Kong, July
A prominent resident Of the Philip
pines. Senior Buencamino, recently ar
rived at Cavite, ostensibly to intercede
with Senior Aguinaldo in behalf Of the
Spaniards, but he was imprisoned under
suspicion that he intended to kill Gen
eral Aguinaldo, the insurgent leader,
and claim the reward OF SIS, 900 offered
for his life by the Spanish government.
The prisoner has written a remarkable
letter to Captain General August, ex-
planning that he had always been an
ardent supporter of Spain, that he
had raised a corps Of volunteers, and
that he had made various sacrifices for
the Spanish cause only to find hat his
efforts were wasted. He added:
The Spaniards were unabl or unwill-
Ing to perform their share of defense
and the native volunteers bore the brunt
Of the fighting. the Spanlards Sinking
their duty like towards, bunglers and a
perjured. priest-ridden, inferior race.

govern and II would be better to sur
render and avoid the massacre which
will inevitably follow A protracted strug-
GLE"
The writer concludes with advising
Captain General August, in the mean
while, to guarantee the safe conduct OF
all who wish to leave the country, and
the protection OF those who remain after
July 4.

are demolishing the beautiful botanical
gardens at Manila and damage has been

alleged that IL was shelled by the insur-
gents. but in reality the damage was
caused by the shells of a Spanish bat
terry at San Juan which bombarded an
intervening insurgent outpost at IMAM

ants are peculiar. The Spaniards hold
siege lines along the aqueduct extend
