Manila, April 13.-GeneraI Wheaton
started at daylight yesterday with the
Tenth Pennsylvania and the Second
Oregon regiments and two guns to
drive the rebels from the American
right flank, between the railroad and
the foothills. He met with slight re-
sistance near Santa Maria, and had one
man wounded. But the enemy bolted
when shelled by the artillery and
burned and abandoned the town Of
Santa Maria where Thousand rebels
were reported to have been concen-
trated. During the rest Of the day
the enemy was in full retreat towards
the mountains, burning the villages
behind the retreating force. Occasion
ally a few of the rebels dropped to the
rear and fired at the advancing Amer
lean troops from the jungle, apparent
ly with the idea that this would check
our advance and cover the retreat Of
the Filpinos. But finding these
tactics Intellectual, these rebels scram-
bled after the main body. General
Wheaton has telegraphed to Major
General Otis saying They would
not wait to be killed.

road has been materially strengthened,

CHAPTER V.


Of all the Tory leaders who ravaged
and terrorized the country around New
York during the Revolution Claudius
Smith WAS the most fearless and ag-
gressive. He was man of powerful
physique and commanding presence, Of
great personal bravery and keen pene
| tration.
In reviewing his tempestuous career
we find that he possessed many Of the
characteristics popularity attributed to
Robin Hood. Acts Of violence were offset
by deeds of charity, hatred and ferocity
by gratitude and mercy, and treach-
cry to his foes by answering loyalty to
his king He robbed the rich to bestow

and before sufficient force could be
mustered to assure his capture escaping
to his strcngholds in the mountains to
plan another raid. The topography Of
the country in which he resided and
the times in which he lived were emf
nently favorable to his peculiar mode Of
warfare, while he found ready market
for his plumber among the British SOL
diers stationed at Stony Point and Fort
Lee
Such was the man whom Edward
Robin had agreed to serve.
A month had passed since the out
laws departure for dominic to marry
the runaways Yet he had not returned
from his mission His failure to keep
his promise caused them the keenest
anxiety, which was greatly augmented
by the precautions he had taken for
their safe detention during his absence
for shortly after his going a band of his
outlaws arrived at the cavern under the
command Of his son Richard. and
close watch had been kept upon them
ever since. Robin fumed and fretted
under this enforced captivity.
Fate is against me, Polly he
would say to the girl. ut seems that |
have escaped from the Goshen Jail only
to be imprisoned here. 1t is evident
that am doomed to be captive for
the remainder of my days.
To which Polly would reply.
"Don't despair, Edward. You will
gain your freedom yet and then we can
get married and live happily together.
In the meantime we may be able to
turn our captivity to the advantage Of
our country. Let us pretend to sym
psthize with these Tories and win their
confidence. Then we may be able to
gain knowledge Of their designs and
thwart them"
To this plan her lover readily agreed,
and Immediately began masquerading
as a Tory. He cursed the Wings in
weighed against the Continental con-
gress and scattered threats of wreak-
ing vengeance upon the patriots so lib
orally that he soon won the admiration
Of his captors. Yet although they be-
lisved in his sincerity they did not re-
lax their vigilance, and his acting was
futile 60 far as affording him any
chance to escape was concerned.
In the meantime Richard Smith had
taken violent fancy to Polly. He per-
secuted her with his attentions. and on

With these words he conducted them
by way Of a winding, dizzy ascent to a
vast platform Of stone, and pushing
aside screen Of brambles revealed the
entrance to cavern. Al 1t was by this
time broad daylight they could see that
the interior had been rendered quite

Robin led Polly into the cavern,
while the bandit turned to go upon his
mission. As the latter had considera-

disappeared in the direction Of the trail.

pearng voluntarily, on the subject Of
the future Of the islands. The ques-
lions put to all are:
DO you believe the Filipinos are ca
pable of self government in the town
ships?
Do you believe the Filipinos are ca
pable of self government in the prov
inces?
Do you believe the Filipinos are Ca
pablo of self government in the archi-
pelago?
All of those who have been interro-
gated, including Filipinos who SYM
pathize theoretically with independ-
ence, have replied to the third ques
ton, with remarkable unanlmity, in
the negative. Independence, they say,
would result in chaos, endless tribal
wars and European Intervention. A
few of them think that provincial self
government is practicable, but most
Of them favor self government in the
townships, with form of American
supervision protecting the inhabitants
against the pecuiations and eXtortions
which their experience with the Span
ish regime has led them TO consider
the natural perquisites of otficialdom.
The commercial classes urge the
sending Ct detachments of American
troops, each numbering 2hout 100 men,
to take possession of the towns in the
southern provinces and in the Wis.,
ayas islands, now held by small bands
of Tagalos. They declare the natives
find the Tagalo oppression worse than
Spanish oppression, and that they will
welcome the Americans. The case of
the inhabitants OF tubat, in the prov
ince of Scrsogon, is cited as a typical
instance. The Spanish taxes amounted
to $4,000, but the rebel Tagalos ex-
