General Merritt Describes the Situa-
ton From Military Standpoint.
STRENGTH OF THE INSURGENTS
London Times Thinks Result is
Favorable to the Treaty.
OTHER VIEWS ON, SITUATION

In an interview with Tribune reporter
in New York yesterday General Merritt
gave his views on the situation at Manila:
Referring to map of the Philippines
General Merritt said he imagined from
what he had read that the attack must
have been made some distance from the
coast line. The insurgents would naturally
keep as far away from the bay as they
could, because of a wholesome dread of the
shells from Admiral Deweys ships. When
the general was In the Philippines Aguinal-
dos headquarters were in suburb called
Bacoor, a locality Of swamps and rice fields.
1t was probable, the general thought, that
the struggle had taken place in that vicini-
ty.
General Merritt was inclined to doubt
that any attack had been made from the
north, because as he explained, the In
surgents, if they showed themselves in that
direction, would lay their lines open to the
guns of the American fleet.
A Severe Fight.
When asked If the loss of twenty lives
with over 100 wounded on the American
side in an hours battle did not indicate
that an extremely severe fight had taken
place he replied that 1t did, but added: THE
comparatively long list Of casualties may
have been due to their long-range guns. 1t

Admiral Thinks Filipino Trouble
VIII Soon He Settled.

In an interview in Boston yesterday Ad-
mfra1 Sampson said of the situation at Ma
Mia: THE trouble will not last long The
American forces will very quickly settle It,"
Would the American authorities be like
ly ts push active hostiiities against the ma
tives under present conditions?"
THE Filipinos have brought their pun
ishment upon themselves and no blame can
be attached to the American government.
The Presidents hands have been tied in
the past by the fact that the peace treaty
has been pending. and he could do nothing
but await the action of Congress in deter
mining the relationship of parties concern
ed in the Philippine situation. The Fill
pinos, having taken upon themselves to
begin hostilities. take the consequences of
future results upon their own shoulders,
and the Americans are left free to go ahead
and punish the offenders"
Then you would consider the United
States actually at war with the FIlipinos?"
Such an attack as is described is equiv
alent to declaration of war,
These people are just like all orientals.
great deal of show and tinseI awes and
overWhelms them. l have been told in all
parts OF the world by persons who have
studied the character of these people that
this is the only way to affect them. At the
same time. I think the best thing to do is
to give them distinctly to understand that
the United States proposes to do exactly
what 1t pleases with regard to the Philip
pine Islands.
The report that the American women
and children in Manila were removed to
the warships when the fighting seemed i'm
minent Is undoubtedly correct. There are
about $50 American women and children
there, and they had to be taken care of.
This step was not taken from a fear of
people outside the city, however but as
precaution against the results of a possible
riot in the city itself. riot is liable at
any time to occur in the city, instigated
by Filipino stay-at-homes and sympathiZers
and Spanish prisoners.
Il do not believe it is in any way possi-
BILE, however. for the insurgent troops to
ample force with which to take care of
Manila, and feel confident that he will do
the right thing 1t is wise for our govern
ment to continue sending troops to the ISL
ands, as / am not sure that we yet have
enough soldiers there to pacify the entire
country. But have no fears whatever as
to the safety of Manila itself.
81 think the present insurrection will have
one particularly advantageous effect. 1t
Will, think, consolidate the opinion of the
people of this country. They will
realize the true condition of affairs in the
Philippines and insist that this uncertainty
forced, and all the people will demand that
the job be finished up in short order.
Il wish 1t distinctly understood that
nothing that 1 say is intended to in any
way reflect upon the President, his cabinet
or either house of Congress. / do not know
what the policy of our government in this
matter is going to be, and in what l have
said l have explained merely my personal
opinions

WIRES NOT AUTHORIZED.
Companies Forbidden From Encum-
bering Poles in Alleys.

In an opinion rendered today to the Dis
trict Commissioners the attorney for the
District holds that the Chesapeake and
Potomac Telephone Company is not au-
thorized. under existing law, to cucumber
its poles in alleys with more wires than
may be necessary for the accommodation
of subscribers at the time Of the applica-
ton to string additional wires.
The telephone company several days ago
requested permission to run an aerial cable
along it's pole line from the pole in the
alley in square 4s6 to the pole in the alley
in square 529. Upon reference to the cleo
trical engineer, that official recommended
that the permit be granted, as the request.
in his opinion, came within the law allow
ing the stringing OF wires from one square
to another for the purpose of making house
connections. Captain Beach, the Engineer
Commissioner. however, recommended that
the request be referred to the attorney for,
the District, it being a question in the COM
missioner's mind whether cable, using
many more wires than are necessary at
the time of the request, can be permitted
under existing law. ,
In his opinion. which the Commissioners
approved, the Districts legal adviser quotes
the following clause in the District appro-
priation bill approved March 3, 1897:
Hereafter no Ctelephone) wire shall be
strung on any alley pole at a height of less
than 30 feet from the ground at the point
of the attachment TO said pole; temporary
permits may be granted by said Comrnis-
sioners to string wires from cable poles, or
from existing overhead trunk lines, to poles
in or to be erected in alleys, and from alley
poles in one square to alley poles or house.
top fixtures In another square for the pur-
pose of making necessary house connec-
tions from all cable poles and existing
overhead trunk lines within the District
of Columbia; such house connection to be-
made from the poles OF overhead trunk
lines nearest the subscriber. ..
'One of the objects of this legislation e
says the attorney, was to prevent the un-'
necessary duplication of wires and poles
and to conflne the erection of poles and
overhead wires as far as possible 10 alleys
My opinion is the Chesapeake and Potomac
Telephone Company is not authorized, un-
der existing law, TO cucumber It's poles IN
alleys with more wires than may be necesS
sary for the accommodation of subscribers
at the time Of the application to string adj
dltional wires" - "a

VIEWS OF LONDON PRESS.
General Opinion That Filipino Out
break VIII Help Treaty.

LONDON, February 6.-The Times. COM
nlenting editorially upon the dispatches
from Manila, says:
1.-The insurgent attack was apparently
premeditated. and the presumption is strong
that Aguinaldo is responsible for he blood
shed. The really important point is wheth-
the attack is or is not the beginning of an
organized attempt to fling off American
rule.
I'VE imagine the news will strengthen
the determination Of America to take up
the white mans burden"
The Daily Graphic says: by this act of
folly the insurgents have not only courted
defeat, but have regulaI1zed the position of
the Americans in the archipelago and have
probably obtained for President Mckinley
free hand in the expansion policy, which
the Senate has seemed reluctant to give
him."
The Daily Chronicle says: 1.-The Fiipinos
have helped to assure the ratification of
the peace treaty.
The Standard says: The paucity of news
and the boldness of the rebels in their at
tack upon Manila are ominous, and 1t is
not unlikely that the Americans will have
a series Of toflsome campaigns over the
scattered islands,"
The Daily News says: The fact that Amer
fcan blood has been shed will secure. we
imagine, the immediate ratification of the
peace treaty. The Filipinos have shown
their unfftness for government at the
very outset by rash and untimely mani
festation."
London Junta Not Surprised.
A representative of the Associated Press
saw the London representative of Aguinal-
do last evening. He did not express sur
prise at the news from the Philippine Is
lands but declared that the Fflipinos at
Manila We're suspicious of the attitude of
the United States and had formed the opin-
ion that it was better to fight before the
Americans We're reinforced.
Ihe representative added that Mabini
the head of the Filiuino cabinet and his
colleagues were convinced that if the Amer
leans were beaten now public opinion in
the United States would Insist upon the
maintenance of Filipino independence"
