D1sAvowAL FROM AeU1NALDo.
Junta Says He Is Not Investigating
the Peace PROPOSALS.

London, May Representatives of
the Filipino junta say that they have
received a telegram from Aguinaldo,
dated April 30. in which he states that
his government has nothing to do with
the present peace negotiations. which.
he asserts. are being conducted
by a group of half-castes and Creoles,
who are anxious for peace, in the eX-
pectation of getting high offices under
a new government. Several of these
men. Aguinaldo says, are members of
the Filipino congress, where they are
endeavCIing to outvote him.
Aguinaldo added that he had had no
direct negotiations with the Americans
since the fall of Malolos, when certain
proposals passed between d. c. Wor-
cester of the American Philippine COM
mission and a representative of Agui-
naldo, as to peace based upon independ-
ence with an American alliance.
fAguinaldo disavovs the present nego-
tiations and adds that under no circum-
stances will he accept an American
protectorate.
The dispatch concludes with a con-
temptuous reference to Major Argue
lezes as a Spanish officer who has no
more authority to act on behalf of
Aguinaldo than has Luna himself.

GENERAL UNSTONNOW
President Has Promoted the Dash
ing Kansas Hero.

Washington, May 2.-The president
has appointed Colonel Frederick Fun.
ston of the Twentieth Kansas briga-
der general of volunteers. This ap-
pointment was recommended by Major
General Macarthur, and supplemented
very strongly by General Otis in a cable
dispatch received yesterday.
General Macarthur said the services
of Colonel Funston during the cam
paign, and especially in the crossing Of
the Rio GraHde river, deserve recogni-
ton such as his promotion to be a brig
adler general; also that as a leader of
troops Colonel Funston was especially
valuable.
The president recognizes the services
of Colonel Funston. and his first official
act upon returning to Washington was
20 make him a brigadier general.
The cable which General Otis sent
yesterday says:
Macarthur strongly recommends
Colonel Funston's appointment as brig
adler general for signal skill and gall
lantry in crossing the Rio Grande river
and most gallant services since the
commencement of the war. 1 urge the
appointment. Funston is able as a
leader of men, and has earned recogni-
ton

says:
The output has not been more than

royalty will this year be paid on more
than SS.000.000. Exemptions and eva

amount, as the production of the terri
tory for the year ending in the summer
of 1899. The primitive methods used in

likely that the Washup will give more

Manila, May 2.-Major Manuel Argue
lezes and Lieutenant Jose Bernal of the
staff OF General Antonio Luna returned
| here today to renew and press the re-
| quest of General Luna for a cessation
of hoStilities. They have found the
| field of labor a most uncongenial one
The two officers were received in con-
ference with Major General Otis.
The proposals which they had to sub
nit differed but slightly from those
which they brought from the Filipino
commander in the first place. They de-
sired little time in which to summon
congress, and expressed themselves as
being confident that the congress will
decree peace because the people desire
it. They represent that Aguinaldo Is
| without power to surrender the army,
and that the congress must decide the
question.
Incidentally, the Filipino ENJOYS as
serted that Aguinaldo had not yet made
a fair test of his strength against the
American forces, because only One-third
of his army had been assembled to-
gether.
The ENJOYS presented a letter from
Senior Mabini, president and minister of
foreign affairs in the cabinet of Aguin-
aldo and who is the backbone of the

The ENJOYS will see General Otis
again tomorrow. They will sleep tonight
in Manila. They lunched with General
! Macarthur at his headquarters on a
car of the armored train at Calumpit
! before going to Manila.
Whether or not General Luna is sin
cere in his overtures, the negotiations
are giving the insurgents a much
needed opportunity to rehabilitate their
demoraliZed forces. The truth is that
discussions among the leaders of the
rebels is helping on the disorganiZation
of the Filipino army almost as much
| as the American campaign.
In the course of the conference with
the Filipino ENJOYS. General Otis
agreed with the statement of Major
Arguelezes that the people of the Phil
| ippines wanted peace. and he added
that requests for protection are pour
ing in upon him from all parts Of the
country.

Will Be Suppresss ed.

These, unless something should de-
velop to necessitate further action, may
be circulated through the mails within
this country. According to Mr.. Atkin-
sons own statement, as reported, a
large number of the pamphlets have
been sent out.
The matter was brought to the atten-
ton of the postal officials by the war
department. whose authorities were
greatly exercised at a suggestion that
there is little possibility of any of these
publications getting past the San Fran
cisco office. but If a few should, the
military authorities in the Philippines
will promptly suppress them. Postmas-
ter General Smith made this statement
today:
These pamphlets actually incite to
mutiny. and it would be utterly usjus-
tifiable to permit their circulation
among the soldiers in the Philippines.
Their circulation is a movement to in
duce the soldiers to disobey orders and.
in effect, to embarrass and resist the
government in whose service they are
engaged. Their circulation. except in
the mails for the Philippines. is not in
terfered with. because. in being sent to
Manila, they are destined for soldiers
fighting our battles, but in this coun-
try the effort to incite to mutiny could
have no result. Not only are they de-
signed to incite to mutiny among the
American soldiers on these islands. but
also to foment and encourage insurrec-
ton on the part of the Filipinos them
selves.
