Some Filipinos who attempted to
come to Manila with the Spanish COM
mission received a message from
Major General Otis. saying the women
and children would be given American
protection, but that the men who had
cast their lot with the insurrection
must remain with it. The party In

was assassinated by the guard before
Aguinaldos house, with his family and
the Filipino Secretary of the Treasury 8
family.
FILIPINO TRENCHES CHARGED.
Lieutenant Slavens, Of General Mac
Arthurs staff, accommodating with IS
men In front Of Angeles, discovered a
Filipino outpost in trench. The Fill
ipinos numbered about 40 men. AS the
Filipinos had sighted the Americans,
Lieutenant Slaven's only course was to
charge, and his party rushed to the
trenches, shooting and yelling. They
killed three OF the insurgents and
wounded several, who. however, sue
Americans was hit. The Lieutenant
secured valuable information about the
enemy's position.
UNREST AT ILOILO.
The feeling of dsqu!et aroused at
Ilono by the arrest Of Santiago. the
wealthy Filipino, who is charged with
forming n revolutionary junta, has sub
sided. The natives IS their quarter OF
the town were sullen and restless and
were heard chanting the death song at

in private conversation with members
OF his Cabinet that neither Admiral

made him any such promise"
WISHED TO ATTACK AMERICANS.
The report then states that Agul-
naldo wished to attack the Americans
when they landed II ParanaQue, but was
deferred by lack OF arms and ammuni-
ton. From that point on there was O.
growing friction between the Filiplnos
and the American troops. There were
no conferences" says the report, be
tween the officers OF the Flliplnos and
our officers with a view 10 operating
against the Spaniards, nor was there
cooperation of any kind. /" There
never Was any preconcertcd operations
of any combined movement by the
United States and Fillpinos against
the Spaniards."
Reference is made to Aguinaldo's de-
mand that he be allowed to loot Ma
Mia and take the arms of the Span
lards. The latter demand is to con-
get possession OF the arms to attack
the Americans.
POPULAR CLUBS"
Further evidence Of the hostile inten-
lions of the Filipinos was found in the
organization OF popular clubs" which
later on furnished local militia to at
tack the Americans. Along this line
the DEGREES OF the Filipino Congress are
also cited as we'll as the making of
bolos (knives) in every shop in Manila.
1t is shown that a considerable element
in the Filipino Congress wished to ad-
dress to President Mckinley a request
not to abandon the FilIpinos Cat this
stage the Paris conference was discuss
Ing the future OF the Philtppines). The
President was also to be asked his de-
sire as 70 the form OF government he
wished to establish. But oil this time
AEufnafdo was preparing for wnr and
delaying these messages. and 1t was un.
derstood that the attack would come
upon the first act by the American
forces which could afford pretext. 81

the work done in the meetings of
this society. A movement is already
