WANT TO GIVE UP
THE FIGHT
Eight Thousand Filipinos
Ready to Surrender.

MANILA, Feb. 27.-Two commits.
sioners who returned from Malolos
under flag of truce today report that
5000 rebels are anxious to surrender.
They also express the belief that
Aguinaldo is inclined to accept pacific
overtures.
Spanish Commissioners Rossato and
Boeoto were permitted to pass our line
to confer with Aguinaldo in reference
to Spanish prisoners at Malolos They
returned through the lines this morn
ing near Calocan with dispatches for
the Spaniards. They said Aguinaldo
ard Sardiko are both at Malolos.
While the PHILIPPINES are not yet
prepared to surrender the Spanish
prisoners. they will gladly release two
Americans who have been held for
six weeks, on payment of $50 yalue of
goods and clothing furnished them.
Shortly afterward the rebels sent
out flag of truce. Bornelli, Com
mandant Sinforesdode Lacruse and
several hundred of the enemy left the
Filipinos lines crying "No quere mas
combate los Americanos mucho
bunro." The commandant said that
fully 5000 of his men had enough, and
were anxious to surrender.
Among the enemy in the jungle
many women and children are visible.
A woman laid down her rifle, and at

Yankee Rule

MANILA, Feb. 25.-Saturday the
German cruiser Kaiserin Augusta
which arrived here last night from
Iloilo, brought news that the United
States gunboat Petrol had visited the
island of Cebu, in the Nizcayas grouI
of the Philippines. and holsted the
American flag. The president of the
local government of the Island de.
clared he yielded only to superior
force.
The deputation from Negros island
which came here after the enple said
they had accepted the rule of the
United States, is evidently pleased
with it's reception. Its members will
return co Bacolot, the capital Of the
island. on Tuesday.
Later reports show there was con-
siderable firing at Caloocan last night.
The Filipinos are becoming more
accurate in firing. During the skir-
mish last night two on the railroad
were slightly wounded and member
of the Kansas regiment was shot
through the head this morning. 1t is
believed the wound is mortal.
A Spaniard with flag of truce came
though the lines of the Kansas regi
ment this morning at $50.

The Cuban Assembly to Accept Amerf-
cas- Offer.
HAVANA, Feb. E6.-The Cuban as
sembly met yesterday and heard the
report of the committee which was
sent to Washington some time since
TO confer with the government regard
ing Cuban affairs.
The assembly was clearly dissatis-
fed with the doings of the committee,
inasmuch as it's members had not act
ed in accord-one day telling the pres
ident that the Cuban army was com
posed of 10000 men and the next that
it consisted of 45, COO N en- in the Cuban
ranks.
The commission presented report
of the conference with General Alger,
secretary of the war, and the attorney
general but failed to lessen the as
sembly's apparent feeling of disgust.
1t was finally decided to have the re-
port printed and to hand copy of it
to each member of the assembly, that
they might study it car efully. The
fact that the offer OF $4,000, 900, on a
basis OF 500 pay for each soldier was
adopted and that efforts to obtain
more failed, makes obligatory the as
sembly's ratification of the acceptance
of the proposition of the United States.

To Consider Attitade on the
Phil ppines.
WASHINGTON, Feb. ga caucus
of the democratic members of the house
has been called for o'clock next Fri
day evening for consideration of the
party on the Philippines" The
call was issued by Representative
Richardson Of Tearessee, chairman Of
the caucus committee, who received
request from 40 democratic members
asking for caucus. The plan Of &C.
tion has been outlined, and it is ex-
pected resolution will he adopted
against the permanent acquisition of
the Philippines. A resolution to this
effect has been drafted by the demo.
cratic memb bers of the committee on
foreign affairs, following the lines of
the Bacon resolution, adopted at the
caucus, and hereafter tits expected to
get the resolution before the house.
Among those active in securing the
call were Representative Dinsmore of
Arkansas, Howard of Georgia and
Ball of Texas.
Mr.. Dinsmore says the essential fea-
ture of the movement is to secure
definite declaration of the attitude of
the party against permanent holding
of the Philippines.
Mr.. Howard stated that the step had
been taken mainly because the McEn-
cry resolution passed by the senate
had been ignored by the committee on
foreign affairs. No meeting of the
committee had been called since the
McEnery resolution was received, so
it was manifest the house was not to
be permitted to vote on such declar-
atiop. He and his democratic asso.
ciates of thescommittee had therefore
framed resolution much similar to
that of Senator Bacon, which would
be offered to the caucus.
