Turning to the history OF the islands,
the commission attaches little impor'
lance to the divers rebellions which
had preceded that of 1896. As to thi;
movement, it declares it was in nc
sense an attempt to win independence,
but solely to obtain relief from intoler.
able abuses. To sustain this statement
the commission quotes from an insur.
gent proclamat on showing that what
was demanded was the expulsion Of
the friars and the restitution to the
people of their lands, with division
Of the Episcopal sees between Spanish
and native priests. 1t was also de.
manded that the Filipinos have parlia.
mentary representation, freedom of the
press, religious liberation, economic
autonomy and laws similar to those OF
Spain. The abolition of the power OF
Punishment was demanded, with a
legal equality for all persons in law
and equality in pay between Spanish
and native civil servants.
The commission declares that these
demands had good ground; that on pa.
per the Spanish system OF government
was tolerable, but in practice every
Spanish governor did what he saw fit,
and the evil deeds of men in the gov.
eminent were hidden from Spain by
strict press censorship. Allusion is
made to the powerful Katipunan so.
ciety, patterned on the Masonic order,
and mainly made up of Tagals, as a
powerful revolutionary force.
The war begun in 1896 was termin.
ated by the treaty OF Biac.Na.Bate.
The Filipinos were numerous, but pos.
sessed only about 500 small arms. The
Spanish felt that it would require 1OO,.
600 men to capture their stronghold,
and concluded to resort to the use OF
money.
The arrangement was not acceptable
to the people. The promises were
never carried out. Spanish abuses be.
gan afresh, in Manila alone more than
two 200 men being executed. Hence
sporadic revolutions occurred, though
they possessed nothing like the strength
Of the original movement The insur.
gents lacked arms, ammunition and
leaders. The treaty had ended the
war, which, with the exception of an
unimportant outbreak in Cebu, had

general at this juncture, and war broke
out between Spain and the United
States. Angustini sought to secure
the support OF the Filpinos to defend
Spain against America, promising them
autonomy, but the Filipinos did not
trust him. Then came the first OF May

prestige to Spain. Then in June, Agui

London, Nov. 6.-There is very little
fresh intelligence today, but it is be-
lieved that the Delagoa bay cable
route, if not already restored, speedily
will he. thus giving quicker commune
cation with the Cape.
The situation is still hopeful. The
accounts that continue to arrive re-
garding the fighting on Farquhar's
farm only confirm its serious nature
and the narrow escape General White
had. On this point, the Morning Post
remarks:
Nothing tells such tale of battle
as the list of the missing. When the
missing exceed the killed, it is safe TO
write defeat across the story, because
missing means abandonment or
surrender"
1t now appears as If it were only the
arrival of the naval contingent from
the Powerful whichr prevented worse
disaster. 1t seems that when it was
seen that retirement was Imperative,
two Natal cavalrymen volunteered to
convoy dispatch across the Boer lines

nut the risk was considered too great,
and flag signaling was employed in
stead. The distance was too great and
the ground too rough for cavalry to 60

This brings the story up to the out
break on the evening OF February 4,
with the attack upon the American
troops following the action Of the Ne.
braska sentinel. The commission, in
concluding this chapter, Gays:
after the landing of our troops,
Aguinaldo made up his mind that it
would be necessary to fight the Ameri.
cans, and after the making of the
treaty OF peace at Paris his determine.
ton was strengthened. He did not
only openly declare that he intended to
fight the Americans, but he excited
everybody, and especially the military
by claiming independence, and it is
doubtful whether he had the power to
check or control the army at the time
hostilities broke out. Deplorable as
war is, the one in which we are now
engaged was unavoidable. We were
attcked by bold, adventurous and en-.
thusiastic army. No alternative was
left to US except ignominious retreat.
at is not to be conceived that any
American had sanctioned the surrender
OF Manila to the insurgents. Our OBJ.
legations to other nations and to the
friendly Filipinos and to ourselves and
our flag demanded that force should be
met with force. Whatever the future
OF the Philippines may be, there is nc
course open to US now except the prose.
cution of the war until the insurgents
are reduced to submission. The com.
mission is of the opinion that there ha.
been no time since the destruction OF
the Spanish squadron by Admiral Dewey
when it was possible to withdraw our
forces from the islands, either with
honor to ourselves or with safety to thu
inhabitants"
"Should our power. by any fatality,
be withdrawn the commission believes
the government OF the Philippines
would speedily lapse into anarchy,
which would excuse, If it did not ne.
cessitate, the intervention Of other
powers, and the eventual division OF
the islands among them. Only through
American occupation, therefore, is the
idea OF free government and uniteA
Philippine commonwealth at all con.
ceiyable.
