ARE GERMANS BACKING INSURGENTS?
REPORTS FROM HONG KONG SEEM TO SHOW
THIs-PRINCE HENRY CREDITED
WITH DEvIsING PLOT.


San Francisco Jan. II (SpecaD-According
10 letters received here from Hong Kong by
several prominent Germans Germany is in
triguing actively against this country by back
ing Aguinaldo and his followers in the Philip
pines. The German Consul in Hong Kong has
held secret conferences with the insurgent repre-
sentatives and there seems no doubt that Agui-
naldos recent attitude is due to German sup
pert.
According 10 these letters. the person who
is credited with devising the plots against the
American Government IS Prince Henry OF
Prussia when he was in Hong Kong with his
squadron. The Prince had the German Consul
at Hong Kong send word 70 German consuls
or consular agents at Manila, Iloilo and Maolos
10 as7ure AFulnalGo and the insurgent chiefs
OF the determination OF the German Govern
ment to aid the Filipinos u secure all they
asked FOR from the Americans. and to encourage
them TO continue their opposition Until success
was secured.
some letters went so far as 10 state that
the aid mentioned would consist OF money
arms and ammunition. All that Germ any would
ask in return would % a coaling station In
case Aruinaldo came into possession OF the ISL
ands or In case peace was made with the
Americans on the Filipinos terms the ihsur-
gents should insist that Germany receive
cOalng station.
A prominent German. who has received let
ters from Hong Kong. said to-day; "A number
