San Francisco, March 1.-The New

conspiracy among prominent Filipinos
who have posed as amigos" The
story, for which the paper does not
stand sponsor, asserts that the mem
bers Of the conspiracy raised fund
to reward those who should pick out
and kill prominent American officers.
Killed Major Howard Instead.
ut is known" the story goes on,
shat the insurgents attempted to kill
General Lawton while on the north
line, and the occasion chosen was when
Major Howard was killed on river
boat. The rebels had learned that
General LawtOn was to take that boat
and made desperate attempt to kill
him, but killed Major Howard instead.
General Lawton, owing to some acct
dent, did not take the boat as he in
tended. When the news of General
LawtOn's death reached Manila there
was great rejoicing in certain native
circles. In Binondo and Tondo dis
tricts particularly was this the case,
and 1T was ut once proposed to raise
purse to reward the man who slew
him, and he was paid $25,000."
