WAR MOTHS.

The Filipino government has ofiic-
tally sued for peace. Col. Argueleses
and Lieut. Jos. Bernal, chief of Gen.
Lunas staff, entered Gen. McArthur's
lines under a flag of truce and an
nounced that they wished 10 confer
with Gen Otis regarding terms of sur
render. They were provided with a
train, on which they went TO Manila,
where they told Otis that they were
representatives of Gen. Luna, who had
been requested by Aguinaldo to ask
him for cessation of hostilities in or
der to allow time for the summoning
of the Filipino congress, which body
would decide whether the people
wanted peace Gen. Otis replied that
he did not recognize the existence of a
Filipino government.
Army officials have learned that
since Manila fell the Filipinos have
been obtaining supplies of ammunition
from Hong Kong and Singapore, as
well as from Europe. strict naval
patrol Of the island Of Luzon has been
established and the belief is expressed
that the supply of ammunition will
now be cut off. 1t is positively stated
that the Filipinos have no factory for
the manufacture of smokless powder
and Mauser cartridges which they are
using.
Soldiers who have served in the reg
ular army and were discharged with
out receiving their extra two months
pay should apply to the auditor, treas
ury department, Washington, ID. G..
1t takes about a month before an ans
wer is received but finally they will
receive postal notifying them that
their claim has been filed, and to wait
for further developments.
According to a statement prepared
at the war department the American
casualties in the Philippines from Feb.
4 to April % were 1913 killed and I'LL
wounded, making a total of 1,309.
