eral Wheaton gets in position, when
the three commanders will bring their
forces to bear upon the point at which
Asuinaldo may be located.
General Otis is expected to send
several ''tinclads' with the expedition.
rs they will be useful in protecting the
troops during the passage down the
Cagayan. 1t had been expected that
General Wheatons expedition would
make a short cut across the mountain
to get to the north of Aguinaldo, but
General Otis has concluded that the
wiser plan is to send his command by
transports TO the north of LuZon and
to have Generals Macarthur and Law
ton guard the south.
1t has become evident to the officials
that il will be extremely difficult to
catch Aguinaldo. 1t is pointed out
that with the long coast line of the
island il would be an easy matter for
him to enter Il small sailboat and get
away, and naval officers predict that
il he is captured it will be by the navy
and not by the army The departure
of Aguinaldo from I.uzon, would, the
officials believe, simplify matters, as
he is recognized as the head of the
insurrection, and his absence would
undoubtedly greatly disorganiZe the
enemy and render the suppression of
the insrrrection all the easier
