their latest overtures; but more atten-
tion is now paid to them than was paid

ippino commission is acting under in

gress, but it is possible, if peace is ar
ranged, Generals Luna, Pho del Pillar
and their followers will continue a

At Iloilo an attack ON the Americans
was recently expected The Philippine
leader boasted that he had 1000 rifle
men and 10000 bolomen and had the
impudence to send an ultimatum to the
American commander, ordering him to
leave the island AS a result many of
the natives left the town and for sew
eral days the outposts were doubled. In
addition, the Yorktown and the Iris
anchored in positions commanding the
mouth Of the Jara river, where the at
tack was expected to take place, but it
failed to materialize.
