SITUATION IN THE F|L|PP|NES
OTIS rs EASILY IN CONTROL.
He Has Sent All the News From There,
Good and Bad-says Aguinaldo's Men
Are About Half Equiped-Our Govern
ment Does not Recognize His Agent.

Chicago, Feb. General Otis has been
very frank in his advices to the war de-
partment in regard to the conditions with
which he is contending. He has not hes
itated to send bad news as well as good
news and whenever there was anything
OF importance to communicate has prompt
ly transmitted it. He has not been over
sanguine as to q peaceful solution and
for these reasons the war department Of
ticials attach considerable Importance to
the cheering message recently received.
General Otis has been confident from
the beginning OF the present difficulties
with the Aguinaldo forces that he would
be able to cope successfully with any at
tempt to override the authority of the
United States. He believes that his
troops are sufficient in number to defeat
Aguinaldo's army if a clash should come.
The American force at Manila consists
of about 10000 men, while Of Aguinaldo's
main army of about 10000, only half is
believed to be armed. At Iloilo 1000
American troops are quartered on board
transports. Should a conflict occur they
would have about that number of armed
Filipinos to contend with.
One transport, the Scandal, is on her
way from San Francisco to Manila with
1900 soldiers aboard. She should reach
her destination. early next month. The
transport Grant is on her way from New
York to Manila with 1900 troops for Cen
eral Otis. The remaining regiments UNI
der orders to proceed to Manila will get
away within the next two weeks from
New York and San Francisco. These re-
Inducements number about 1000 soldiers
OF the regular army.
No action has been taken by the gov
eminent in regard to the presence in
Washington of Aguinaldo's agent, Felipe
Agoncillo, who has been active in keeping
the Filipinos at home informed as to the
purposes OF the United States in regard
to the islands and sending advices which
are displeasing to the authorities in Wash
ington. For the present Agoncillo will
not be molested, but it is generally I'M
derstood that the government has deter
mined to take measures against him if
an outbreak be precipitated by the Fill
Pine forces at Manila or elsewhere in the
Philippines

Denial of AgoncilIo.

Washington, Jan. 2s.-Agoncillo, the
representative of Aguinaldo, authorized
the following statement today concerning
the published reports that the govern
ment had intercepted dispatches from him
to Aguinaldo, in which he advised that
the Filipinos would have to fight for their
independence and now was the time to
act:
''The statement is absolutely false and
is calculated to excite feeling and ami
mostly in this country and to prejudice
the Philippine cause. No such telegram
has ever been sent by me. The falsity
of the statement is shown by the face
that / have cabled my government to
continue the same friendship which was
borne on the battlefield against Spain
"The Philippine people have no wish
and no purpose to fight against the
Americans unless they are driven to it.
Their only desire is to strengthen the
bonds now existing"
