Indians that one by one fell into rnishaps
fits the four FilipiEos who came to town
almost as if it had been made for them.
First, Agoncllo, in guilty apprehension of
punishment to come. fled at midnight last
Saturday, and his teeth did not cease chat
tering until he reached safety at Montreal
in the queens dominion.
The second Filipino left the city at Il
clock this morning. He is the redoubta-
BILE Captain Burgos, who, upon coming here
fntmated that America might be invaded
and whipped by the Philippine horde if
they were not let alone TO pursue their own
sweet wills.
Couldn't Stand Being Shadowed
The captain could not stand the shadow
ing of the secret service men that has been
carried on without much pretense of Sc
crccy, and anticipating a hint from Uncle
Samuel that Burgos had better get his
trunks packed and thai he did not care if
Burgos never came back, the chocolate
coored would-be diplomat made off for
Montreal via the Pennsylvania railroad. He
minded not the fact that ha; colleague
the Arlington Hotel nor did he wait to pen
any more protests to the Secretary of State
but followed his leader in similar fear and
trembling. He was accompanied to the 9th
street depot by SenOr Lopez of the two Fill
pinos now in town. All the way to the Ca

Senior Lopez returned to the hotel about

clerks desk. and, after reading it. had
long talk with the. cashier He was OBJ
served by a Star reporter and one of Chief
Nllkie shadows. After he went to
room 81, where he and Losado are dorni-
ciled, the reporter inquired of the hotel peo-
pie if they had asked him to Vacate, but
could get no definite answer. 1t is no secret
however. that they would be glad to lose
the tilipinOs at the earliest moment possi-
bic.
Lopez Could Not Re Seen.
A card was sent up to Lopez's room, but
the bellboy quickly brought back word that
the caller could not be seen. Losado has
bad attack Of infammatory rheumatism
and has been confined to his bed for two
weeks. 1t is considered likely around the
hotel that as soon as Losado is able he and
Lopez will be taken with Montreal fever, in
which case the nursery jingle will have be-
come more truly actUadized in the experi-
ence Of the four little F'lipinos and another
verse must be added to the above
1t is no secret now that the authorities
here were preparing to arrest Agoncillo Just
as he f1ed, but probably they are not sorry
that he got off safely, and thus relieved
them from the performance of a disagreea-
bic task. The conduct of the remaining
members of the Philippine junta is still un-
ger ciose Natch, and while the treatment to
be accorded them has not been determined
