Seems to be a Mistaken Pol
icy to Use in Dealing
With the Filipinos.
TREACHERY OF THE MAYORS
The New Mayer of san Pedro Maoati, In-
stalled by Prof Worcester, Found to
DO Using His ONCE AS Recruiting
station For Filipino Army-Mu-
nioipsl Governments Collapse.

Manila, Aug. % via Hon Kong. Aug q
Recent events have proved dlscouraging
to officials who are trying to accompany
war with a policy of Cancellation. Two
new municipal governments nave collaps-
ed through the treachcry of the mayors.
To-day the mayor of San Pedro MacatL
VIII" was elected by the people under the
direction of Prof Dean Worcester of the
United states advisory commission for the
Philippines, was brought to Manila and
lodged in Jail. The United States officers
at san Pedro Macati found that he was
using his office as "A recruiting station for
the Philippine army Four disguised in
surarut officers wore helping him.
Thu mayor Of Hainag, was also arrest
ed and confined in the same prison. The
Americans found him passing between the
lines of the two armies with discriminating
documents. which the authorities secured.
Another prominent native mayor Is un-
der surveillance.
When the result of the election at linus
which General Lawton and Prof Wor-
ces'er engineered, was announced the
Americans inquired as TO the whereabo
of the peoples choice and were Informed
that he was in prison, whore the au-
Ihortties had placed him on suspicion OF
being a relolutiOnist He was released
and installed as mayor.
Such events and conditions terd to give
color to the assertions Of foreign resi-
dents acquainted with the native charac-
ter, who insist that a great majority Of
the natives sympathize with the insur-
rcctior and elect officials whom they
know to be revoluntionists
For two weeks Manila has been pol.ced
at night with unusual vigilance. APPARENT
~ the authorities are expecting trouble.
The trend Of affairs tends to make the
policy of lendency unpopular among the
Americans, When they abandoned MorOng,
they burned tho whole town.
