MANILA, Oct. s.-Aguinaldo. at the
rebel headquarters at Tarlac, has issued
a proclamation releasing all American
prisoners and permitting soldiers in the
northern provinces to return home. The
proclamation says in part:
'In America there is a great party that
insists on the Government recognizing Fill
ipino independence. That party will COM
pei the United States to fulfill the prom
ises made to us IN all solemnity and good
faith, though not put into writing.
Therefore we must show our gratitude
and maintain our position more resolutely
than ever We should pray God that the
great Democratic party may win the next
Presidential election and Imperialism fail
in It's mad attempt to subjugate US by
force of arms. There are some Americans
in the Philippines who have Joined us be-
cause they disapprove Of the war-of what
Mr. Atkinson calls criminal aggression.
When offered a chance to return to their
own camp they declined"
There is much more Of similar trend
throughout the proclamation, which is a
lengthy one.

WHAT BRITONS THINK OF
OUR POLICY IN THE EAST

ROSTON, Oct 7.-Senator George Fris-
bic Hoar, who has spent the summer In
Europe. arrived to-day on the Canada
When asked what the British, as a rule,
think of our policy in the East, Senator
Hoar replied abruptly:
"They think we are making big asses
of ourselves, but are very anxious that
we shall do it. They think that 1t is an
abandonment Of our old attitude regard
ing the question of public liberty and the
taking up of theirs, and that we are not
doing it we'll But 1T is very easy for
man trayeling abroad to get In a plane OIL
sentime4t that agrees with his own
Senator Hoar said he had never heard
an Englishman speak in private with
anything but amusement at our attitude.
''They think 1t to their advantage,
he added, Ito have US in the East max
ing a league of other nations against
them impossible.
Being pressed as to his personal views
in the matter, Senator Hoar said he be-
lieved the feeling of regret was strength
ening that we did not make the treaty
provisions relating to the Philippines like
those which relate to Cuba.
1T seemed to me at the time" said he,
"and all my reflections since has con-
firmed me in this opinion, that IL we had
precisely the same provisions in the
treaty as regards the Philippines as we

had no war Instead of a lasting enmity,
we should have had the undying gratitude
Of that people. We should have aided
them in keeping order, and there would
have been a new nation IN the East, Diff
fering from Japan. in fact 1t would have
been a republic, and we should have had
the glory forever of having been their lib
orators and benefactors.
Undoubtedly the Republican party is
attached to the President. He deserves
the attachment. Republicans desire to
sustain his administration. They do not
find anything attractive In the alternative
of Mr.. Bryan. They hope when Con-
gress meets some solution of this Giffi-
Guilty may still be found upon which the
President, Congress and all lovers of lib

REINFORCEMENTS SENT
TO ADMIRAL WATSON

WASHINGTON, Oct. 7-"Four addi-
tional men-of-war have been ordered to
join your fleet, four more will be ordered
next week, and four more the week after
if it is found necessary" This is the
substance of cablegram sent to Rear
Admiral Watson by the Navy Depart
ment. Dissemination Of this news,
coupled with the additional information
that Admiral Dewey heartily supports the
President in his purpose to crush the re-
bellion will, the authorities believe, have
a very wholesome effect upon the Fill
pino army.
Official information received here shows
that Aguinaldo has been keeping a large
number of malcontents in check by as
suring them that Admiral Dewey was the
friend OF the Filipinos and that when he
reached Washington his influence would
suffice to bring about arbitration. Adj
miral Dewey himself knew Of this talk,
and in his first interview with the Presi-
dent made 1t plain that he fully agreed
with the chief executive that sound
thrashing of the rebels was necessary in
order to secure an early peace in the
Philippines, and that the islands should
be permanently held by the United
States When it becomes generally known
to the insurgents that Admiral Dewey in
dorses the administration policy the au-
thorities, including the admiral, expect
that Aguinaldo's army will become so
demoralized that surrender will be in
evitable.

It is believed by administration officials
that the end of strife in Venezuela is
near. According to Commander Hemp
hill of the Detroit, the Andrade admins
tration is doomed
Some comment is made in diplomatic
circles at Commander Hemphills frank
prediction that a change of administra-
ton is probable, and some diplomats say
1t may prove rather embarrassing for the
Government should President Andrade re-
main in power. Naval officers say, how
ever, that Commander Hemphill would
never have made such a statement had
he not been sure of the fact.
