Revenues Of Manila Under UnfavOr-
able circumstances.

New York, Dec. 26.-Brigadier General
s. Whittier who went to Manila as an
inspector general ON the staff of General
Merritt, has returned to New York on the
st. Louis with the peace commission. lie
took part in all the land fighting around
Manila, and when peace was restored he
was put in charge of the collection of
customs at Manila.
Between August 20,when took charge,
and October 81. when | was ordered TO
report to the peace commission at Paris,
said General Whittier, "the port of Manila
yielded customs revenues amounting to
ST. 900. This gives no idea of what the
customs receipts would be during 40 days
of peace and the ordinary pursuits of
commerce.
The value and commercial advantages
of the Philippines properly administered
are very great to any country that viii
develop them. The Filipinos are a well
informed people, peace-loving, thrifty and
orderly. What they want most is gov
eminent that will allow them to attend to
their own business. If they can do that
in peace and quiet, they will welcome the
new government. Aguinaldo comes nearer
to being a great man than any other OF 20
wears | ever knew. As we consider age,
he is a mere boy. Yet he has done Won
ders in fighting the Spaniards."

LATE NEWS FROM MANILA
DEWEY WILL NEED MORE MEN
The Spanish Vessels Are to be Refittcd
and Added to His F1eet-Officers and
Men Needed--The Admiral Does not
Desire to Come home.

New York, Dec. 2s,--A special dispatch
to the Herald from Washington says;
A cablegram has been received at the
navy department from Rear Admiral Dew
ey asking for the immediate dispatch OF
officers and men for service on the three
captured vessels, which are to be reftted
and added to his fleet.
Owing to the mastering out of volunteer
officers, the department will find it rather
difficult to comply with the request. Cap
tain Crowninshield, however, is doing the
best he can to provide the officers and men
desired and arrangements are now being
made to send transport with them
through the Suez canal
Officers are anxious to commission naval
cadets, now undergoing Il course OF sea
duty preliminary 10 final graduation, But
this can not be done legally unless con
gress passes the pending naval bill There
is a provision in this bill which expressly
opens the way for the immediate assign
ment of these cadets to duty as officers.
Admiral Dewey cabed to the navy de
partment asking when he might expect the
Buffalo to arrive at Manila and request
ing that she might be hurried as much As
possible.
The Buffalo is carrying 500 men to the
Asiatic squadron to take the places OF
those whose terms of service have eX-
pired and who are now exceedingly anxious
to return to the United States. Many OF
these men would ordinarily have come on
the flagship Olympia, which was on the
point of starting for San Francisco when
the Maine was blown up, but was retained
by Admiral Dewey on cable warning
from Secretary Roosevelt.
The admiral has now informed the navy
department that conditions i'll the Philip
pines have so materially improved that he
will send few officers and men to San
Francisco on the next army transport
which leaves Manila. He Is pot yet will
ing, however, to recommend any reduction
of the fleet, and notwithstanding the re
ports to the contrary he has never init
mated any desire to come home himself,
but, in fact, refused to take advantage OF
the permission extended to him OF tenn
porariIy leaving the east and visiting Paris
when the peace commission was there.

Assassination.

Manila, Dec. 2S.-A steamer which has
arrived here from Samar reports the Ia
gal insurgents have been in possession OF
Kalbaon since December IL. Business
there is said to be entirely suspended and
all Spaniards OF the vicinity have sought
refuge in the house OF man named Scott,
an American. All efforts to induce the
Viscayas to join the revolution have been
fruitless.
The situation here so far as the inSr-
gents are concerned is serious. The for
nation OF a new cabinet has been IN

pant. irreconcilable of unknown antece-
dents and bitter opponent Of AguinaIdo'

1t is reported Aguinaldo refused to

ed that Agninaldo has fled to the inacces-
sible region back of Cayite with u few fol
lowers, fearing assassination.

Miller has left here for Iloilo.
