SITUATION IN PHILIPPINES
FILIPINO CONGRESS CONSIDERIYG

Matter of Funds to Defray Heavy Ex- penses of Maintaining the Army Pend ing Decision of Paris Conference Aguinaldo Charges That Many spnn- aards and Priests Are Intriguing With Faction Of Natives to Foment Dis turbances,


 a Faction of Natives to Foment Dis
 turbnnces.
 Manila, Sept. 25.-The Filipino con- gress IS engaged in the consideration of the question of funds to defray the heavy expenses of the maintenance of the army pending a decision by the Paris conference. Hitherto the army of the Filipinos has been chiefly SUD- ported by public subscription, but now the native government contemplates the imposition of various taxes. The inhabitants of the northern provinces however, especially of Panpanga and llocos fiatly refuse to pay land or poll taxes, because it was the popular i'm pression that the revolutionists would abolish taxation entirely. The natives of Pampanga and Pangasinan, the two richest agricultural provinces of the is- lands, and those of Ilocos and Za.nn- beles, who are the sturdiest mountain- eers, distrust the Tagals and insist upon the establishment of an American protectorate
 Yesterday the assembly debated the question of a land tax. A majority of the members were opposed to the main ta1nance of burden unequaIly distrib- uted and unduly favoring the Tagals. and demanded that statement of ex- pendftures be submitted before the matter was decided. The statement was not forthcoming and the question was shelved. Aguinaldo realizes the difficulty of reconciling the conflicting interests, but hopes that the nations will allow the Filipinos a fair chance 10 snow that they are capable to au- tonomy. Aguinaldo desires the Asso- ciated Press to inform the world that There is conclusive evidence that many Spaniards and priests are intri- guing with faction of the natives to foment disturbances so that Americans WILL pCA1CfC liC WLOiG pUpUldLlOu to De irreconcilable."
 He asserts that the intriguers pay money and provide uniforms to persons who impersonate rebel officers and en- ter the town, and accuses Eugene Blanco with being the chief paid agent of intriguers. In the course of an in- terview Aguinaldo said that the Filipi- no fleet comprises eight steamers which. are now engaged in conveying troops for grand campaign against the Spanish garrison from the Southern Is lands. These vessels are practically unarmed. The Spanish gunboat Ell Cano, he says, recently entered Mas mate and caught and sank the Filipino troop-ship Burisan which was lying at anchor there. He admitted the re- cent purchase of the steamer Abbey, formerly the Pasig, but denied that she had landed rifles and ammunition at Batangas, though he admitted that she carried two Maxims and shipload of stores. The United States steamer Hugh Mccullough captured the Abbey sixty miles south of Manila. It is be- lieved that the Abbey had landed seven thousand rifles.

that only a submarine mine could have

been circulated in Havana for two
days that the loss of the ship had been
already officially set down as due TO
a submarine mine because OF the latest
discoveries made by divt1s. and that
dispatch to that effect had been sent
from Havana to Washington. The
fact is that the official decision regard
ing the matter can come only from the
