ed-General Otis Cheering Reports.
Manila. June 16.--Captain Cable, OF
General Wheaton's staff, with three
companies Of the Twenty-first regi-
ment. yesterday reconnoitered In tho
direction Of linus. The rebels, who
were apparently expecting an attack,
retired, leaving behind 20 Spanish
prisoners. who Joined the Americans.
The rebels have probably gone to tho
mountains along the lake.
According to native stories the rebels
carried 100 dead and 300 wounded

The natives are now flooding into
Bacoor, and it is probable there ars
| many soldiers in plain clothes among
them. s
The whole section is practically
without food, and General Otis has orr (
dered the distribution of rice and beet
to the inhabitants.
Many people still refuse to credit
the stories of the assassination OF
General Luna by the guard at Aguin-
aldo's headquarters. Though the re-
ports to that effect are most circum-
stantfal, and from good sources, ru-
mors of assassinations and disasters
from the rebel camp are SO frequently
printed In the local papers that they
have come to be regarded with indie-.s
ference. The latest is that the gov
ernor of Cebu has been killed by ma y
tives because Of his friendship to 1
Americans.
The failure of the Filipinos to follow
up the peace negotiations strengthens 1
the impression that their overtures
were merely to gain time and in ordsr
to lure the Americans to show their
hands.
The Independence, revolutionary
organ, of May 20, copy of which has
Just been obtained, prints an interview
with General Luna, showing the argu-
ments he used to keep up the spirits
Of his followers. He represents the
Filipino cause as prospering, because
