TRUE TO LIFE ABOUT MANILA

Communication with the shore is easy,
thanks to the permission of Admiral
Dewey, who has shown most remarkable
powers of administration under anoma-
Ious circumstances. 1t must be under
stood that Spanish rule still prevails,
and that there are about $4,000 troops in
the capital. 1t is said that the govern
ment has enrolled about 100. 900 volun-
teers, but this. / take 1t, is brag. IL
would mean that it had reinforced the
insurgents with that number of men.
Here, then, is Dewey, with his small
SQUADRON. not only overawing the heavy
odds of Spanish troops. but in posses
sion of the harbor and preventing the
arrival of supplies. Hunger, or rather,
famine, will render any man desperate,
but, although there is some stealing
and robbery. yet the city is kept in re-
markably good order, but only on ac-
count OF Dewey's presence.
II is. however, not safe for a stranger
to perambulate the almost deserted
streets. and more dangerous, OF course
to go openly as an American correspond
emit. Letters of introduction from Shang-
hal friends to an old n wealthy Ger
man resident left the impression that ]
am here in the interest of a German
paper. and i have taken excellent care
not to destroy that illusion. The conse'
uuence is that the Spanish officers &c
whom | have been introduced talked
with freedom. 1t is impossible not u
marvel at the ignorance manifested bS
them.
A walk through the business part o.
the city has a depressing influence. Tn
