Will Fight If Better Terms Are Not Of
f0red,

New York, May PA dispatch to the
Herald from Manila says: Four OF the
Filipino commissioners called upon
General Otis but made no official prop
ositions relative to surrender They met
the American commissioners later and
held a four hours conference. 1t is
said that the Filipinos were dismayed
at the terms offered in President Nc
Kinleys cablegram. General Pillar turn
ed red under his brown skin when he
realized that he was being offered moth
ing but vague promises of possible rep
resentation for his people in case of
compliance with the American demand
that they lay down their arms. Every
Filipino shrugged his shoulders over
the glowing prophecies of the future,
after a cessation of hostiities, as out
lined to them by the members of the
commission. They said they asked for
independence and liberty with dignity
under the protection of the United
States and were now offered nothing
but the Indifferent assurance that .ndi-
vidual natives ought to mold the posi-
tions nder the proposed government.
The commissioners have great dread of
the significance of future congressional
legislation. They will accept not sim
gle condition of those proposed but will
return dissatisfied to Aguinaldo Major
Zaileita, one of the Filipino commits
sioners, said:
LAS the ultimate form of government
rests in the hands of the American
congress the present proposals are
merely provisional The result of the
present plan would be that the Ameri-
cans would be at the head OF every de-
partment and Filipino tenure of office
would depend upon the will of the
Americans. We think we can get bet
ter terms"
The opinion of military officials here
is that the negotiations merely encour-
age the insurgents to hold out for bet
ter terms. General Luna is bound to
continue the fight for independence.
Negotiations which encourage the ma
tives to hope to obtain great conces-
sions may cost the lives of many
American soldiers.

The New York Boss Wants to See the Old
Ticket Renominated.

I1cket hen0mlnated.
New York, May 24.-The Evening
World prints an interview with Sena-
tor T. G.. Plat in which the latter is
quoted as strongly advocating the re-
nomination of President Mckinley and
Vice President Hobart. The interview
says:
Senator Platt said that all the criti-
cism which had been flung at McKin-
ley cannot alter the facts that the pres
ident has conducted in magnificent
style the shortest and most decisive
war of modern times and simply as
tonished" the old world by the way in
which he did 1T. a
This general satisfaction continued
Senator PIatt, has had undoubted de-
monstration by the presidents reeep-
ton wherever he has been. Without a
shadow of doubt he will be nominated
and elected.
The republican party is stronger
than it ever was. Vice President Ho-
bart will be elected with Mckinley. He
is my choice for vice president, just as
Mckinley is for president. AS for The
democratic party, it has only one issle
-silver-and that has been repudiatel
by the entire country.
$50 far as we have gone, American
commercial interests will assaredly
benefit. At any rate. there is a GER
tainty no land ever held by the United
States must ever be relinquished. That
would be impossible.
He spoke of the peace conference at
The Hague as visionary, beautiful hut
ilnrracticaD,e."
Universal politics, he said, is not for
this age.
