LIBERAL OFFER TO AeUINALDo
Remarkable Terms which the Chief of
the Tagals Refused.


New York. Sept. 1S.-A special to
the World from Ithaca, N. Y, says:
Your correspondent is able to say on
authority that the Schurman peace
commission offered every inducement
short of absolute self government to
Aguinaldo and his followers. Agui.
naldo was promised as the price for the
restoration of peace in the Tagal tribe
a bonus of more than $4,000 year
while the Tagals remained peaceful.
He was told that he could choose men
from his own tribe for the minor mu-
nicipal offices. The commission went
so far as to promise Aguinaldo the
moral support of the United States gov
eminent, if such were needed, to make
his leadership Of the Tagals thoroughly
secure.
With all these inducements. tempt
ing as they must have been, Aguinal-
do, as the recognized head of the insur-
gent movement, declined to yield. He
insisted upon immediate self-govern-
ment, and as his insistance was 30 firm
as to make an agreement impossible,
the American missioners ceased ne.
gotiations.
President Schurman was frank in
telling your correspondent day or SO
ago that he favored giving to the various
tribes the largest possible measure of
home rule at the earliest moment. He
thought the several tribes could admin.
lister their local affairs. elect their
municipal officers, establish courts and
penal institutions, etc., but did not
believe il possible to allow the natives
to pai ticipate in the general govern.
