Cutting Off Their Rations.

Washington Sept 5 Tho mStter Of
making an effective blockade in the
philippines and especially around the
island of Luzon 50 as tn prevent the in,
su-gents from obtaining ammunition and
supplies, is one that is giving the admin
istration considerable concern. 1t has
not been deemed feasible to proclaim a
blockade, as it would indicate a state of
war and possibly open way to the rec
ognition' OF the insurgents. Whether o.
not it is fca9ible to attack, subdue and
garrison all the ports of Luzon, which
might serve as ports of supply for the
Filipinos hasnot yet been determined.
Heretofore there have not been sufficient
troops in Luzon to make this possible.
and the question will wv arise whether
troops had. best be spared for this pur-
pose.
The president has been advised that
the navy should be utilized for. the pur-
pose OF esenting the introduction Of
contraband OF war and supplies for the
Flipnos, asse9ery naval vessel could be
stationed and under the military law of
the island every incoming vessel could
be ma le to exhibit it's manifest. One
trouble about carrying cut this plan is
the fact that there is not a sufficient
'numberof Light draught vessels to go
into all the places where the Fiiipincs
can receive their supplies.
