Not long ago General Andsrs
wanted TO take pleasure trip up I
River Pasig. but was stopped at
insurgent lines and compelled 10 u
back A day or two afterward the I
miral sat on the quarter deck and
saw an insurgent launch steam.
gayly along near his ship. with the
surgent flag flying. Then an idea
reciprocity occurred to him and be
cided to seize all the insusm
launches. This was at once done n
eight beautiful craft were tied q,
Cavite. When Aguinaldo heard Of I
calamity he sent his private secrsta'
Escamillo, to see the admiral and
find out what had been done TO offe
him. The admiral was very nice. q
he gave Escamillo a heart-to-hs
talk. He spoke Of the insurgents
fusing to allow American army o
GERS to go through their lines and
thought that he would not allow
insurgent launches to go through
lines. So for that reason he had tai
them-not confiscated them, just =
tanned" them. The next day Aguina
gave orders permitting American o
GERS to go through the insurgent ID
and up the river. and doubtless in
day or two he will send a beauui
present to his ''illustrious friend
