surrender in small bands, already COM
menced, may be expected to continue.
Advices that can be relied upon say
that Gen. Macarthur is at Angeles and
has accommodating parties out feeling
his way toward Tarlac. Gen. Lawton
was at Tolovera and had thrown out Il
line under Gen. Young as far east as
Alisga. The new movement, as indi-
Gated above, will be made from three
points, in the direction of Tarlac. It
remains to be seen whether the re-
ported bushwhacl1ing tactics of Agui-
naldo will materially affect Gen. Otis
plans. If not it is more than probable
that important news will come from,
the islands within a short time. ~.
Otis Has Over $4,000 Men.
Including the troops scheduled to ar
rive on the dates set for beginning the
general movement Gen. Otis cabled the
war department that he would have A.
971 officers and men, apportioned thus:
Infantry, 1,191 officers and $4,000 men !;
cavalry, 116 officers and 3,1S7men; ar
tillery, 3S officers and 1882 men; gen
eral and staff officers, 161; enlisted

r. Important Expedition.
Manila, Nov. 6.---Sunday evening a
fleet Of transports and gunboats left
Manila for the most important expedi-
ton Of the autumn campaign. It's des-
tination is supposed to be Dagupan or
some other northern port. Gen. Whea-
ton commands, with brigade consist
ing of the Thirteenth infantry, the
Thirtythird infantry, two guns Of the
Sixth artillery and two gatlings. The
transports Sheridan, Francisco de
Reyes and Aztec carried the troops,
with the gunboat Helena as escort. A
dispatch boat was sent ahead to ar
range rendezvous with the United
States cruiser Charleston and the other
warships that are patrolling the north
coast of Luzon. The landing will be
made under cover of the guns of the
fleet.
To Head OF Aguina1do.
3 It is assumed here that the purpose
of the expedition is to move down the
Dagupan- Manila railroad toward Tar
lac or to prevent Aguinaldo's forces
making another base farther north.
Dagupan and Apparri are the strong
holds of the insurgents in the north,
and it is supposed the points where
most of the flibustering parties land.
Since the beginning of the hostilities
it has been the unanimous opinion of
military experts here that Dagupan
should be made a base of operations,
but sufficient troops have heretofore
been lacking. With Gems. Wheaton,
Macarthur and Lawton moving upon
Tarlac from three directions, and the.
mountains hemming in the other side,
the insurgent capital will soon become
untenable.
Aguinaldo may attempt to shift his
headquarters to the rich tobacco coun-
try at the northern end Of the island.
Possibly he may slid eGaround Gen. Law
toms front to the southern provinces;
but, as MacArthur's and Lawton's
troops are spread across the country

with the close of navigation in sight

4 May End by Spring.
Should the concerted operations sue
sceed, organized insurrection, on large
scale, should be at an end early next
spring, although guerrilla warfare is
likely to continue for a long time. No
one anticipates that the insurgents will
make many hard battles. The problem
is to move the troops about the country,
to maintain transportation and to hold
the territory gained. The moral effect
of the arrival of a large American army
is calculated upon to sap Aguinaldo's
strength by desertions and through the
loss of hope among the supporters of
the revolutionary movement.
