HAVANA, June 6.-Gen. Maxine Gomez,

festo today. In substance 1t will say:

taken just after the removal of bloody
Spains merciless power. We armed our
selves and therefore We no longer want
soldiers but men for the maintenance of
peace and order, which are the basis of
Cuba's future welfare.
1T is necessary to understand that the
nation in this epoch, most difficult and un-
equaled. in history, should avail itself of
the opportunity to show it possesses vir-
NAL government, and the harshness Of
warlike life. We wanted and depended
upon foreign Intervention to terminate the
war. This occurred at the most terrible
moment of our contest and resulted in
Spains defeat. But none of US thought

BANDIT WARFARE.
1t Is Productive of Small Results In
the Philippines.

WASHINGTON, June 6. - President
Schurman, of the PHILIPPINE commission,
in a dispatch to Secretary Hay, has, it
is believed, recommended more liberal
concessions to the Filipinos, with view
of ending the insurrection at once. An
official acquainted with the message said
1t reviewed the situation in the island
and was of an encouraging nature. The
dispatch was considered by the president
and Secretary Hay, and the president
sent a reply. The nature of the answer
is not divulged. It is significant, how
ever that, coincident with his message to
President Schurman, a cablegram was
sent to Gen. Otis, with instructions in
line with the presidents belief that the
restoration of peace can only be recon-
mended by the complete subjugation of
the Filipinos. Gen. Otis will continue
his military operations throughout the
rainy season.
1t is apparent that the president does
not look for the close of the rebellion
until the Filipinos are convinced of the
military superiority of the United States
The concessions already offered are lib
eral, the administration believes, and as
far as the president can go without au-

WAR TO A FINISH.
That Is the Presidents Plan for
Settling With FiliptnOs.

MANILA, June 6.-The American forces
have occupied the peninsult and Gen.
Halls column is encamped at Morong.
Maj. Truman, marching across the Bin
gangonan found 1t impracticable to form
a Gordon, and the insurgents, with the
exception of 100 or 200, escaped through
the mountains after Gen. Pho del Pillar,
dragging their battery by buffaloes at
night A few, however, may be trapped.
The Washington troops have returned
to Pasig, but the programme of the other
troops is uncertain.
The present expedition shows the diff
fculty which is encountered by an army
which must depend upon wagon trains
in catching barefooted bandits, and also
gives proof that the rebels do not in
tend to fight battles.
Gen. Hall left Santa Teresa yesterday
morning and marched twelve miles TO
Morong, up and down rocky hills and
through woods and Swamps. Scores OF
his men fell out, owing to the extreme
heat and were left to follow as best they
could. The head of the army arrived at
Morong at noon, having exchanged only
q few shots with 4insurgent skirmishers
on the way. Groups OF Stragglers followed
all day, but the force was 200 smaller
than when it started. The men were al
most thirty-siX hours without rations,
and it was considerable of an achieve
ment for them to cover the ground they
did
En- route to Morong the Americans met
f1ocks of Filipinos and flags Of truce,
many of them young men with the
bearing of soldiers. Many discarded uni
forms were found in the houses, appar-
emily those of soldiers who had escaped
by changing their costumes from ''insur-
recto'' to amigo" and walking boldly
past the army which had expected to
corral them. Few were found about
Morong. One member of the Washington
regiment was killed and two were
wounded in the encounter with the out
posts.
Gen. Lawton, on board a gunboat
searching the coast for Maj. Truman,
stopped at Binangonan, opposite Mo-
rong. The natives Immediately ran up
flag of truce, and a delegation in canoes
put off and greeted the Americans with
the usual protestations of. friendship.
The rebels on Saturday night made an
attack upon the friendly town, of Maca-
bebe, and, after driving most of the in
habitants out, burned the town.
The insurgents nightly annoy the
troops at San Fernando. Several Ameri-
cans have been slightly wounded re-
Gently. The enemy have several Krupp
guns, which they bring forward and use
for firing large shells itno the town, then
retreating with their guns. One of the
insurgent shells fell within thirty yards
of Gen. MacArthur's headquarters Sat
urday evening. The American troops do
not reply to the nightly outbreaks.
