AGUINALD0 Is NOT
THE REAL LEADER

CHICAGO, Feb. Edward c. Andre,
Belgian Consul at Manila, passed
through this city. to-day en- route to
Washington from the Philippines, In
an interview Mr.. Andre said he had
been much interested in reading the ac-
counts of the battles with Aguinaldo's
forces and he was not surprised they
had been defeated so easily by the
American troops. The ultimate result
OF the revolution, he said would be
the formation of little military party
among the Filipinos, but the greater
part of the inhabitants of the islands
would appreciate American rule all the
more because of Aguinaldo's defeat. In
Mr.. Andres opinion Aguinaldo is not
the real leader of the insurgents. He
believes the little rebel is in the hands
of other persons of greater intelligence.
Mr.. Andre is a strong supporter os the
annexationists. He declares this is the
only way to govern the Philippines.
Mr.. Andre came to this country for the
purpose of organizing a syndicate to
establish railroads in the Philippines
and will remain in the United States
about a month.

MILLER IS BELIEVED
TO HAVE TAKEN ILOILO
His Instructions Were to Drive the Ma
tives Out OF the City.

NEW YORK, Feb. o.-The
Herald's Washington correspon-
dent sends the following: In
terest tonight in the Philippine
situation is centered upon Iloilo,
which is believed to be in posses
sion of General Miller's COM
mand.
General Otis cabled to the
War Department to-day an
nouncing the dispatch of the
First Tennessee Regiment to
Iloilo to reinforce General Miller,
but it is not certain that it will
arrive at its destination in time to
take part in the attack.
1t developed to-day that under
the terms of instructions sent to
General Miller by General Otis,
the former is to present an ulti-
matum to the natives directing
that they evacuate the town and
permit the landing of American
forces by 9 o'clock on February
10, or it will be Immediately
bombarded and forcibly occu-
pied. General Miller now has
between $500 and 5000 men, and
the First Tennessee Regiment
will increase his command by
another thousand.
AS the Herald stated this
morning, it is not expected that
General Miller will find any great
difficulty in occupying the port,
as it is easily approached. Dis
embarkation under the guns of
the naval vessels can be readily
accomplished, and the men-of-
war will materially assist the mill
tary in driving the natives out of
the city.

tenders are understood to be

ing a very quiet time of it at present.
They have received several cablegrams

have not come. Agoncillo says he is
not yet entirely ready to say what he
will do.
"At present" he said, Eve are in com
munication with seven different points
by cable and wire and there will be
many more, for we cannot carry on
war like this without having agents
everywhere.
I'VE do not rely upon assistance from
the Japanese for the present" he re-
piled in answer to an inquiry 1--WE
have made no overtures to them and
they have not made any suggestions
to u.s.
When asked if he expected his other
Filipino friends from Washington, he
replied that they would remain in
Washington until they were ordered
out.

ingtons, but the greater part of
their force have no firearms.
The German cruiser Irene is at
Iloilo, and it is expected that her
commanding officer will land a
guard of marines for the protec-
ton of German subjects and in
terests. No objection could be
taken to such action, but as soon
as the American troops are in
possession and are capable of
maintaining peace and order, the
German commander will be ex-
pected to withdraw his force.
With reference to the situation
at Manila, the authorities feel that
General Otis still continues to
The San Francisco call., 1899-02-10

Suns Manila cable says: Leaders
OF the Filipinos, including Aguin-
aldo, have taken we'll to heart the
lesson taught them during the
past four days and are now trying
by diplomacy to end the hostili-
ties which they started. Judging
from the latest developments
they have failed as badly as dip
lomats as they did as military
strategists, and it looks as though
their only course is to make com
plete submission to American
authority.
A number of prominent Fill
plnos to-day visited General Otis,
the military commander here, for
the purpose of making overtures
for a settlement of the trouble.
lhey were received by General
Otis, but his manner was chilling.
The deputation was talkative, and
its members dwelt upon the situ-
alton from the Filipino point OF
view, but they had absolutely
nothing to offer as basis of set
tlement. They pressed General
Otis for declaration Of some
kind as to what the Filipinos
must concede in order to secure
peace, but his answer dashed their
hopes of obtaining any terms that
would prove beneficial to the
enemy.
Tell Aguinaldo," General
Otis said to them, that | have no

MANILA, Feb. 9, 4:4o p.m.-
All is quiet here to-day. The
Filipinos are lying low, except
on the extreme left and right.
They are evidently concentrating
between Caloocan and Malabon.
Judging from appearances the
Filipinos are being reinforced by
better drilled men from the north
ern provinces. In front of Caloo-
can they are as thick as swarm
of bees.
:. The American troops feel the
heat at midday in the open, but
they are anxious to proceed.
The soldiers are impatient of re-
straint while in sight of the
enemy.
:, The Filipinos are still en-
trenching themselves on the LETT
of Caloocan.
Sergeant Major Smith of the
Tennessees has been ordered to
proceed to the United States by
the next transport as an escort OF
the remains of Colonel William
G. Smith of the First Tennessee
Volunteers, who died of apoplexy
during the recent battle with the
Filipinos.
$50 p. m.-The natives, fear
ing the Americans were about to
make an attack or lombard the
town of San Rogue, set fire to
it to-day. 1t is still burning as
this dispatch is sent, and as it is
composed in the main Of bamboo
huts, it will probably be totally
destroyed.
Telegraph operators are now
worth their weight in gold, and

NEW YORK, Feb. 9.-The Sun Manila cable
says: The Filipino generals, whose forces were
so numerically punished by General Kings
brigade in the fighting last Sunday, nearly 1000
of them having been killed in the attacks upon
Santa Ana and San Pedro Macate to the south
east of the city, are reported TO have fled to the
interior in disguise to escape violence at the
hands of their own people.
The officers in command of the main body
of the insurgents have asked AgunaIdo to send
them endorsements, but say they do not want
any more Tagallos.
Reconnoitering parties are finding VILLAGES
in every direction flying the white flag and there
is every indication that the villagers have had
quite enough Of the effective warfare waeed bv

He will use his own judgment
about the conduct of the cam

proves his action in declining to
answer Aguinaldo's communica-
ton, and it is not expected he
will recognize the Filipinos in any
way.

Ex.Lieutenant.G Governor Macintosh,

Saturday In Sumpter, arriving on a spe.

evening and returning on a special Satu,.

private secretary, Harold Ellis, and was
met In Baker BY his mining expert, D. J.

with n. K. Wheeler and United States
Marshal Zoeth Houser, returned with him
to Baker City, w. c. Calder accompany.
Ing him as far as Portland, on his way to
San Francisco.
As is generally known, Governor
Macintosh Is largely interested In the
Sumpter TownSite syndicate, and Is gen.
orally reported to be negotiating for one
or more mines In this district, including
the lbex. Aside from being one Of the
most prominent Canadian politicians, he
Is decidedly the most extensive mining
operator In the Northwest, on either side
of the line. He It was who negotiated
the sale OF the great lie Roi mine to Lon.
don capitalists, for five millions. The
Governor Is dstinctively a successful
man of large affairs. He has, withall,

which renders him extremely popular with
all who know him personally. He has
the honor Of being the first man, not a
