Manila, May 3, s p. m.-The Filipino
ENJOYS, Major Manuel Arguelezes and
Lieutenant Jose Bernal, have aban-
/ doned the pretense under which they
came to General Otis that they repre-
! sented General Antonio Luna, and to-
| day they announced that they came as
representatives of Aguinaldo himself.
The two emissaries used all their
wiles to secure a reply from General
Otis to the letter from Senor Mabini,
| Aguinaldo'S prime minister and minis
ter of foreign affairs in the Dictator s
cabinet, which they presented to Cen
eral Otis yesterday, but General Otis
refused to make any reply, on the
ground that to do so would be eduiva-
lent to a recognition of the so-called
government of the Filipinos.
Arguelezes said Aguinaldo knew he
would be overpowered in time, but that
he would be able to continue the fight
for months, and that he would do so
unless he was given what Major Ar
gueleZeS termed peace with dignity
Mr.. Schurman, president of the Unit
ed States Philippine commission, eX-
presses the opinion that the interviews
accorded to the Filipino representatives
will have a good moral effect, as tend
ing TO convince, Aguinafdo's representa-
tives that the American authorities
mean to give the Filipinos a good gov
ernment, and not one of the Spanish
so--.
Certainly it has had a civilizing in
fiuence in inducing them 10 observe the
amenities of. war. and consent to the
Americans furnishing food for Ameri-
can prisoners.
The exodus of natives from the insur-
gent lines continues. BY filing in the
roads where it was required. putting
canoes on the rivers and plowing fields
south of Malolos, the army is in fine
position for the expected decisive blow.
General Macarthur has moved his
headquarters to San Vincente. across
the Rio Grande.
General Wheaton'S brigade has ad-
vanced beyond Apalit.
General Hale has returned to cooper
ate with General Lawton.
At Balibog last evening, there was a
running fight, in the course of which
one American soldier was killed and
three We're wounded. The rebels scat
tered before General Lawton and Gen
eral Hale.
On yesterday, while Captain Wheeler,
with a detachment of the Fourth cav
airy was covering General Hale's ad-
vance, he discovered a large body of
rebels at Pulilan. The cavalry opened
fire, but there was no response. Think
ing that the rebels wanted to surrender
Lieutenant Bell went forward to parley
with them. The Filipinos replied that
they did not wish to surrender, but
that they had been ordered to refrain
from firing during the negotiations.
They asked what Lieutenant Bell
wanted. and in reply, was given half
an hour in which to retire, in which
thew did.
A Spanish prisoner who escaped into
the American lines reports that after
General Hale's advance on Quingan,
200 FilipinOs were buried. thirty-five in
one trench and twenty-seven in an
other. This is the largest number of
rebels that have been killed in any en-
gagement for several months.

GENERAL OTIS is SILENT.
Makes No Mention of Negotiations
In His Report.

Washington. May S.-General Otis
made no mention in his report to the
war department today of the exchange
Of negotiations with the insurgents for
the cessation of hostilities. but that
fact did not abate the confidence of Off
cials IN the ultimate success of the
pending attempts to arrive at an un-
derstanding.
There IS a belief at the war depart
ment that the Filipino leaders are
thoroughly discouraged, and it is sus-
pected that the next step in the peace
negotiations VIII he a wholesale effort
on the part of individual Filipinos in
the insurgent ranks to make terms for
themselves without reference to others.
Meanwhile. there may be some small
engagements between the outposts. but
nothing like a general battle is ex-
pected.
The reported junction effected be-
tween the forces of Lawton and Hale
gives great satisfaction to the officials
here. They have been aDDrehensive
over the length of the line of communi-
cation between Lawton and Manila. but
with a short route open now to Malo-
los on the railroad. there is no longer
any reason to fear that supplies can
be cut off

Are you as sure that it is not your

on the note for s.. go is not in your

Yes said Hedges.
Had it been shown that Hedges did
not recognize his own signature, his
denial of the note would have been
valueless. But while the jury was ex-

Judge Dickson asked him if he had

Did you not, in the summer of 1898,
sign a note at another bank, and in
three months, when it matured, declare
that it was forgery, and subsequently
admit your signature and pay the
note?" asked Judge Dickson.
Yes that's true" said the witness.

BY 10 o'clock this morning the work
OF drawing the formal complaints
against the more notorious strikers had
I been completed. The document was Il

the names of about fifty suspects. Then
the work of making the arrests COM

work.
Captain Bachelor of company NJ, put

the hunt. Up to the head of the gulch
marched the puTSuerS and then turning
back they commenced search of every
point where the rioters might be in
concealment.
Their coming in caused a panic
among the strikers. There was a wild
scramble among them up the sides OF
the canyon. but they were EOt 10 es-

through the brush on the mountain side
the constables and their deputies start
led in pursuit and in most cases the
chase was a short one.
The sight of the dusky soldiers Slis-
tening rifles, was generally sufficient to
make them meekly surrender. Lined
up TWO abreast and closely guarded
by the soldiers the captives were
marched back down to the camp at the

thirty. There they were turned loose
into vacant lot and kept under guard

While the arrest of the men in Ward
