THE INTELLIGENCER.
WHEELING. April 10, 1899.
An Omen orPcacc.

A Manila dispatch reports that a
committee of Fillpinos has ben formed
to arrange conference between the
Americans and the insurgents for the
purpose of affecting peace. or to arrive
at some solution Of the troubles now eX-
listing, on the basis. Of liberal auton-
omy for the Philippine people. 1t does
not appear that the influential Filiplnos
who are heading this movement are
acting on anybody's motion but their
own, or that they are in good enough
favor with Aguinaldo to accomplish
much. Accompanying the statement Is
the information that some Of the men
constituting the commission are under
sentence OF death by order of Aguinal-
do for having dared once before to ad-
wise him to cease fighting. and for this
reason 1t Is not thought that they
would care to meet the Filipino leader
in person.
While the matter may be regarded
specifically by some, the report, con-
firms others to the effect that there Is
a growing feeling among the best class
es of Filipinos in favor of cessatlonlof
hostilities and a restoration Of Peaea
and quiet on some sort Of basis. They
are tired Of fighting for n hopeless
cause, and prefer American protection
to the hardships and terrors of an in
surrection. a Manila dispatch states
that there Is much of this sort OF
talk, and at Washington 1t has been as
serted that there are signs Of a settle-
ment at no distant day.
1t is not at all likely that the Ameri-
can authorities will make any settle
ment that does not carry with 1t the
full and certain assurance Of good faitii.
This is the main point to be considered.
