New YORK. March PA special
from Washington says: Reports re-
ceived al the war department from the
medical officers serving with troops in
the Philippines show that Aguinaldo's
army is using pra>, tipped bullets.
Several American soldiers have been
wounded by the poisonous proJectlles.
and IN con>e quence the wounds are
more difficult to heal than those caused
by the ordinary bullet. Oh course the
authorities can do nothing to prevent
the insurgents using any kind of bullets
they see fit. They have no government
to which an appeal can be made. Their
action III this respect, officials say, Is an
other indication of their utter unfitness
for se.t-governIlent.
