Beginning of the End.

WASHINGTON, April 29.-The end of
the Filipino insurrection is in sight in
the opinion of army and navy officials.
A telegram received yesterday from
General Otis announced that Aguinaldo
had taken what is regarded as the first
step toward surrendering, namely, re-
questing cessation of hostilities. Sec
rotary Alger said, as the department
closed, that, while it could not be said
that peace was assured, he regarded
the prospects as of the brightest and
felt confident that the end of the insur-
rection was near To his mind there
would be repetition of the negotia-
lions which were had before Santiago.
The secretary left Washington last
night for ia ten days trip in the west,
and it gave him great satisfaction to
leave affairs in such promising shape.
Every body is praising the volunteers,
marked change in the sentiment ex-
pressed few days ago, when it was
understood that the same men were
pleading to be brought home. Colonel
Funston came in for the most common
dation, even the regular officers taking
note with admiration of the fact that
his achievements were all strictly with
in the line of the plans laid down for
him by his superior officer. General
Wheaton.
General Corbin said that every volun-
teer who participated in the fighting in
the Philippines since peace was declared
should have medal of honor. By the
terms of their enlistments, they were en-
titled to withdraw from the service, but
they had remained voluntarily, per-
forming more than was required of
them, which was more than the ordi-
nary duty of soldier.
1t is expected that today there viii be
further negotiations with the insurg-
ent representatives. While the hope is
expressed that our commission will not
hold out terms SO severe as to lead to a
renewal of the fighting or the with
drawal of the insurgents to another
stronghold further north, it is realized
that Otis must exercise care to make
sure that they do not in bad faith take
advantage of the opportunity afforded
by suspension of hostilities to secure
whatever of benefit to themselves may
come from the rapidly approaching
rainy season. Campaigning on the part
of the Americans will be almost i'm
possible at that time. However, it is
believed that Aguinaldo is now really
in earnest and that his sole effort is to
shift responsibility for the surrender tc
the Filipino congress.
Adjutant General Corbin says the
Filipino peace overtures will not bring
about any change of plan in this coun-
try as to forwarding ships, supplies and
troops to the Philippines. Transports

Lundon Editors Congratulate Uncle Sam.
LONDON, April 29.-All the morning
papers contained editorials congratu-
'lating the United States on the prospect
of peace in the Philippines and compli-
menting the bravery and endurance Of
the American troops. All insist that
the United States cannot treat with the
rebel government. All approve the de-
mand of General Otis for an uncondi-
tional surrender and urge that he
should be given full powers and not be
hampered by instructions from Wash
ington.

MANILA, May 1.-While it is the gem
eral expectation among Americans that
the Filipino emissaries will return with
revised proposals from General Antonio
Luna. Major General Otis is not letting
this prospect interfere with his prep
arations for pushing the war. Satur-
day he ordered Major General Lawton
to return to Angat and not to advance
aggressively while the negotiations are
pending. General Macarthur is appar-
emily acting on the same policy, but he
is repairing bridges and strengthening

NO WORD FROM GENERAL OTIS.
Taken by War Department Officials t,
Mean Situation Is Unchanged.

Iaken by War department OMCta1S to
Mean Situation Is Unchanged.
WASHINGTON, May Mot line of
official news from Manila was received
Sunday by either the war or navy de-
partnents. The absence.of adyices is
taken by the war officials to mean that
pending further negotiations on the
part of Filipinos for peace, the situa-
ton is precisely as General Otis re-
ported il Saturday.
1t is known that supplies are being
pushed forward from Manila to the
troops at the front in order that they
may be prepared for an advance move
ment, should such action become neces-
sary. There has been no suspension of
hostilities, hut it is regarded likely that
General OTIS while not losing any of
the advantage he has gained, will af-
ford the Filipinos reasonable time
to consider the situation and
terms as presented to the
ENJOYS of General Luna. 1t is ex-
pected confidently by officials of the war
department that the way to peace now
being paved, further negotiations will
be opened by the insurgents. 1t is be.
ieved to be probable that the next i'm
portant news received from Manila will
be that the Filipinos have made addi-
tional overtures towards conclusion of
hostilities.
The war department has been notified
of the arrival at San Francisco from
Manila of the transports Grant and
Sherman. The officials are greatly
gratitied at the rapid run of the Sher.
man. She made the trip of more than
1000 miles in 26 days.

Otis Ignores Filipino Governments.


NEW YORK, April pa special to
the World from Manila says: No cessa-
ton of hostilities has been consented to
by General Otis. Aguinaldo has asked
for an armistice to give him time to let
his congress determine whether the war
shall continue or not. But General
Otis refuses to recognize government
in any form. He maintains that
Aguinaldo made war on his own re-
sponsibility and can make peace the
same way if he wants to. The American
commander does not mean to give the
rebel chief time to rally and recuperate
his shattered forces.

MANILA, April 29.-The Filipinos will
seek peace. Colonel Manuel Argulese
and lieutenant Jose Bernal. chief of
General Luna's staff, entered General
NacArthur's line bearing flag of truce.
They are en- route for Manila by train
to confer with General Otis.
The Filipino officers walked down the
railroad track to the Kansas regiments
outpost at o'clock yesterday morning.
The Kansas captain in command there
escorted them to General Wheaton's
headquarters, where they were provided
with horses and sent to the headquar-
tiers of General Macarthur. The latter
invited the Filipinos to sit down at
lunch with him, and conversed with
them some time.
The Filipinos were then escorted by
General Maloney of General MacAr.
thurs staff to Manila, reaching this
place at o'clock p. m. General Otis
aide, Lieutenant Sladen, was awaiting
their arrival at the depot with a car
riage, in which they were driven to the
palace entrance. The Filipino officers
attracted much attention. They were
dressed in uniforms of checked blue and
white cloth and wore straw hats. They
carried no side arms. They were es-
corted directly to the Office of General
Otis. Jacob G. Schurman, president Of
the Philippine commission, and Hon.
Charles DENLY, member of the COM
mission, soon joined the party there.
The news Of the arrival of the Filipino
officers under a flag of truce spread
through the city rapidly and many Of
palace, while crowd of natives gath
cred in the square opposite the palace.
At 5 o'clock the two Filipino officers,
escorted by Lieutenant Sladen and
Major Maloney, left the palace. They
did not look at all elated as q result of
their talk with General Otis and men,
bers of the Philippine commission.
The Filipino advances for peace SO
far have been fruitless. Colonel Argu-
lese and Lieutenant Bernal told General
Otis that they were representatives of
General Luna, who had been requested
by Aguinaldo to ask General Otis for a
cessation of hostilities in order to allow
time for the summonirg of the Filipino
congress, which body would decide
whether the people wanted peace. Cen
eral Otis replied that he did not recog-
nize the existence of q Filipino govern
ment.
There will be another conference to-
day.
