LIEUT.. GILMoRE's PARTY ALIVE,


Boston, September 90 "A naval officer
on one of the ships at Cavite, says in a
private letter under date Of August 10,
via Suez: ~ today made trip to
Manila purposely to see and interview the
Spaniard who claims to have seen Lieut.
Gilmore and his men. He arrived in
Manila on the sth, coming through the
outposts at San Fernando de la Pam
panVs. His nams is Fslipa Gala and
be is planter by occupation.
On the first OF February last he WAS
surrounded by dsputation Of natives
who made him prisoner. He was forced
to follow the movements made by the So
called Filipino republic and to tramp
through mud and water and -over the
mountains, in their wsndsrinRs. Two
weeks before the arrival at Manila, he
saw at BIgan, Lieut.. Commander GIL
more and his fellow prisoners. From his
report 1t Is judged that they have Jared
badly at the hands of their captors, and
although their courage is undaunted,
they are In bad shape physically, in real
ity being half starved.
Gilmore, himsslf, said he was in better
h salth than some Of the others, being a
man Of strong physique and stronger
determinati on. The whole party was en- i.
tirely destitute Of clothes and all the nec-
essities of life, not to mention comforts.
The failure of the United States TO
ransom shem. as expected, had so irri-
tated the Insurgents that their treatment,
which for some time was most kind, had
since become the reverse. The members
of the party, however, are not disoour-
aged, and fully expect to return to their
friends, hoping any day for their release.
