that President Mckinley has sent to
Adm. Cervera and Gen. Pando messages
saying that he would hold them per-

1NSURGENT FLEET.
Nucleus of One Proudly Floats in Ma
Mia Bay, Presented by Rich Native.
The Success of the Rebel Forces is Won
derfuI-AguinaldO Has Captured 5000
Spanish Prisoners-Native Procla-
nation of Independence.

LONDON. June 2O.-The Hong Kong
correspondent of the Daily Mail tele-
graphing says:
"A conspicuous object in Manila bay
is the nucleus of an insurgent fleet 1t
consists of vessel of a hundred tons
burden, presented to Gen. Aguinaldo
by rich native. The vessel flies the
flag of the Philippine republic-three
triangles of red, white and blue on a
white ground, or ground formed of
the old rebel flag of the sun rising
above the hills.
The native proclamation of indie
pendence was signed on Monday.
Manila is completely surrounded by
the insurgents, of whom there are
three forces deployed about the city,
one posted to the south between Ma
late and the river Pasig; another oc-
cupying a position to the east and cut
ting off communication with the lake
or Laguna de Bay, and the third oper-
ating on the north side, stopping all
railway communication between Ma
Mia and the rich supply towns to
which the line runs.
THE success of the rebel forces is
wonderful. Gen. Aguinaldo has more
than surpassed the expectations of
those who favored his return to the
Philippines. He has captured 5000
Spanish troops. including 900 regu-
lars. Among the latter are IL
officers of and above the rank
of lieutenant colonel, including
two brigadier generals, and he has
taken 79 officers below the rank of
lieutenant colonel In addition his
forces have captured five prominent
priests, heads of important parishes in
provinces recently overrun by the in
surgents. These men the insurgents
hate even more than they hate the
Spaniards and the rebels chuclzle with
JOY when they point them out in their
prisons.
''They have captured, too, Old Cavite
church, taking 27O prisoners, and they
now hold the entire shore of the bay

and Germans, who intend to remain
