Three American Soldiers Have
 Joined the Enemy.
END OF WAR IS YET FAR AWAY
Infantry is. Making a Daring Ex- petition Will March to North
 Coast of Luzon.

Manila, December 7.-Q0:5O p. m.)-The ex- pectation of catching Aguinaldo in the north has been practically abandoned and the probability now is that he will turn south- ward, if he is not already there, with his destination Cavite province, his home, where the nsurrection began and where 1t still has its greatest strength.
 The Filipino soldiers in that province have recently been showing increased enthusiasm and boldness, and captured insurgents say that Aguinaldo is coming to join them with a large army. The same belief pre- vails among the natives at Manila and else where that Aguinaldo intends to make his headquarters in Cavite province.
 There 5000 insurgents before linus and Bacoor, keeping the Americans sleep :. ing on their arms and nightly awaiting attack. The Filipinos have several can- mons.
 The first mayor of linus, under the Amer- ican regime. who ultimately deserted is their leader in the assaults and is ambitious to take the town.
 Three American Deserters
 Three soldiers of the Fourth infantry have deserted and are now with the enemy. Most of he inhabitants of linus are so strong in their sympathies with the insur- gents that it is necessary to use a part of the regiment to patrol the streets and to prevent shooting from houses whenever an attack begins.
 The American forces in the north have separated into many small commands and are pursuing bands of Filipnos.
 General Macarthur is engaged in clearing the mountain country west of the Manila
 
 ing from Angeles toward Subig with 400 men. Colonel Bell Is sweeping south from Mangatarem. Thus far the Americans have been unable to locate large bodies of insurgents, although there were about 300 in San Clementine. nine miles south of Magatarem, early in the week.
 Colonel Hood, with the Sixteenth regi- ment and cavalry, and General Lawton, with force from San Isidro, are operating against General Pilar's army in the San Mateo valley
 On n Daring Expedition
 Major Batchelor, with battalion of the Twenty-fourth infantry Is making a daring expedition. He left Bayombong, province of Nuevta Viscaya, a week ago to march through Cagayan valley to the north coast of Luzon, intending to reach Aparri at the mouth of Cagayan river, the most impor- tant northern seaport of the island.
 While no large forces are known to be in his path, 1t may be that .he has had some fighting, although the friendliness of the in- habitants Is counted upon to help him. When he arrives at Aparri he will find a. gunboat awaiting him. The Spanish prison- CTS in the Benguet region are escaping from the Filipinos and flocking into Vagin. Sew eral hundred are there already, and a steamer will go to bring them to Manila.
