Aguinaldo, that is untrue, and was put
out by enemies Of the Filipinos to in

1t is Senior Lopez's understanding
that Aguinaldo is at Malatos, where he
has been for some weeks. When I
asked him If he were employed making
preparations for an attack upon the
American forces he declared he did not

In maintaining peace and order
throughout Luzon, in forming a gov
eminent and in getting all the machin-
cry Of that government into operation.
Major General F. V. Greene, in his
memorandum to the Peace Commission,
stated that on August Aguinaldo esti-
mated his force at 10000 men, organ
lied into a regular army.
What was in evidence around Ma
nila," he continued, varied from 10000
to $4,000. They were composed Of young
men-boys, some as young as Is years.
Their arms have been obtained from
various sources, and they are partly
Mausers. partly Remingtons. They
have used their ammunition freely and
the supply now is rather short. They
have no artillery, no cavalry. If they
attacked the American army they will
certainly be driven back to the hills
and reduced to a petty guerrilla war
fare: and while these guerrilla bands
might give some trouble so long as
their ammunition lasted, yet with our
navy guarding the coasts and an army
pursuing them on land, it would not be
long before they were reduced to sub

REBEL FORCE
PROBABLY SHORT
OF AMMUNITION

NEW YORK, Feb. 5.-The Washing
ton correspondent of the Herald tele-
graphs:
General Aguinaldo has a regular
army of $4,000 men near Manila, but
this force can be readily increased to
a larger number by CONSUMPTION of
Filipinos of military age"
This statement was made to me this
afternoon by Sixto Lopez, secretary to
the Philippine Junta in this city.
las a matter of fact" he continued.
II do not believe battle has occurred
between Aguinaldo's forces and the
American troops. If there has been a
combat it is due to the action of Otis
in attempting to occupy the positions
held by the Filipinos. The Filipinos
have the highest regard for the Ameri-
cans and the nation, and they certainly
have not attacked the American
troops"
How many troops occupy Iloilo?"
II do not know, as they are not part
of the regularly constituted forces"
Have the Filipinos an ample supply
of arms and ammunition?
II cannot answer that question, be-
cause I don't know. But have heard
of no shipments to the islands since the
occupation of Manila. The Abbey's

SPAIN REFUSED TO
PAY AGUINALDO TO
MAKE RELEASES

MADRID. Feb. Sit Is announced
that arrangements for the repatriation
of the Spanish troops in the Philippine
Islands are being made at New York
and San Francisco. The American
Government, it Is added, bears the ex-
pense Of the repatriation, which Is to
be carried out by the Spanish Trans
Atlantic Steamship Company. The
Spanish Government, through the
French Embassy at Washington, has
sent a communication to the Govern
ment of the United States, saying that
in view. of the non-Success of the
Americans to obtain the release of the
Spanish prisoners, the Spanish Govern
ment itself has taken steps to obtain
their release. But as this will necessi-
tate certain expense, the Government
of Spain recalls the fact that the stipu-
Americans to obtain the liberation of
the Spaniards.
General Rios, commanding the Span
ish troops in the Philippines, cables
that Aguinaldo offers to release the
Spanish prisoners on the payment of
$500, 900 and the handing over to him of
the cannon, rifles and 100000 cart
ridges belonging to the Spaniards. The
Government here replied that it could
not accept this proposition, as it would
be equivalent to indirect protection of
the insurgents, which would be
breach of the Spanish engagements
with the United States. Aguinaldo, it
appears, still retains the civil prisoners
and the monks.
The Spanish Government has no news
Of the conflict at Manila, and it is
added that the Government of Sapin
will "act in the most correct manner
and scrupulously respect the treaty of
Paris"

FIGHTING JOE"
WHEELER WOULD
GO TO MANILA

NEW YORK, Feb. "a washington
special to the Herald says: News of
the attack on Manila has again aroused
the military ardor of Major General
Joseph Wheeler. He would accept an
assignment at once to the Philippines.
He believes, however, more can be &C
complished through the medium Of
diplomacy than by fighting. Speaking
on the subject he said tonight:
What is chiefly needed in dealing
with the Filipinos is policy and diplo-
macy. I found not the slightest diff
Guilty in getting along with the Cubans
after got to know them. When they
came to me 1 received them politely
and took pains to explain anything to
them which they did not seem to I'M
derstand. By doing this I found it easy
to convince them and win them over
to our side.'
I'm the event you ara sent to the
Philippines, General, in what capacity.
will you go?"
II don't even know I will be sent
| there. 1 am ready to go tomorrow.
1t is the height of my ambition to
serve in the army where my services
may be needed. 1 am now eighth rank
| ing major general of the army, but
General Otis is my senior. In the event
am ordered to the East 1t Is impossi-
BILE, therefore, for me to say what I
may have to do"
1t is said among the friends Of Cen
eral Wheeler that it was upon intima-
ton from high authority that he might
be required in the army this spring
that he refused to either resign his
commission in the army or his seat in
the House, as in the former event he
would have to be reappointed and
would lose his seniority over some
twelve other officers.

GENERAL RIOS
REPORTS "DEFEAT"
OF AMERICANS

MADRID, Feb. 5.-Intense excite
ment was caused here by the receipt
this evening of the following official
dispatch from General Rios. the Span
ish commander in the Philippines:
The insurgents have violently attacked
and captured almost the whole of the ex-
terror American line. The Americans Of
fered a vigorous defense at the exterior
barriers, using their artillery as well as
the squadron.
The warships destroyed and burned
Caloocan, Pace and several towns in the
neighborhood Both sides suffered ma
teriaily Very sharp firing continues.
The Spanish troops have been confined to
quarters, but sergeant has been wound
ed by a stray bullet. RIOS.
The popular sympathies here are on
the side of Aguinaldo, but thinking peo-
pie are anxious regarding the conse-
Quences Of the fighting.

COLONEL WILLIAM c. SMITH Of the First Ten
nessee Regiment, Who Died of Apoplexy
During the Battle.

"a strong impulse has undoubtedly
been given to this movement by the
earnest insistence of some leading men
and leading newspapers that the treaty
with Spain was a violation of the con-
Stitution of the United states. From
the first intrusion into the subject,
when he demanded for Aguinaldo that
the alleged Philippine Government
should be admitted to participate in
making the treaty, down to his memo
rial to the Senate on January 80, Agon-
clio has insisted that the Government
he represents, or pretends to represent,
is sovereign and independent, and that
the United States has no jurisdiction
over it without the consent of the Fill
ipinos This is the only issue he has
presented as the representative of
Aguinaldo. His demand has been for a
recognition Of independence or nothing
and that we should give this recogni-
ton or fight. On the part of Aguinaldo,
who is doubtless supported by other
foreign influences, this outbreak against
our army in Manila is a crime due en-
tirely to personal ambition. He must
believe, although l do not agree with
him, that he has secured and will Sc
cure material support for his course in
the United States. This misconception
of his has involved us in unnecessary
bloodshed and in war which, If it is
not checked at once, will spread into
Cuba and Porto Rico. 1t Is, therefore,
in my opinion, the duty, as 1 hope it
will be the indignant demand, that the
United States Government should bring
all of its power to bear at once to con-
vince these people that they owe obedi-
ence to the law of nations and to show
them that their ingratitude to this
country, from which they have received
nothing but kindness and forbearance
is a crime that must be answered for

SHERIDANS VIEWS OF THE OUTBREAK.

WHAT most thoughtful men who
NV have studied the situation at

1t is the beginning of the end
of Aguinaldo's government-but
the end has not yet been achieved.
Before the Chieftain of the Gold Stick
and the Golden Collar is finally over
thrown-if indeed, the blessed luck Of
the American army does not bring him
to us as captive and lead to a speedy
determination of his career in an ocu-
lar demonstration of the fallacy Of the
Tagallo superstition that he is proof
against bullets by his divinity-before,
