MARGINS MEN WERE WEARY.
READY FOR THE HOSPITAL AFTER
THEIR LONG CHASE.

They Say 1t Is All Guess Work as to
whether Aguinaldo Was shot-Im-
portant Papers We're Captured
which Show Nearly All the Presi-
dents in Gen. Young's Territory
Are Treacherous-Natfve Operators
who Have Played False.
Manila, June GA dispatch from Cam
don, dated June 4, says Mai. P. C.
Maroh's men of the Thirty-third Regi-
ment returned to Candon that day by
steamer from APART.
A majority of the men are ready for
the hospital. They are thin and weak hav-
ing Travelled $50 miles in the mountains
during which they suffered greatly from
hunger. OF the fifty horses which started
with the battalion. thirteen survived. The
remainder died on the march or fell into
canyons.
The battalion practically collapsed at
Plat, thirty miles from Maguegarao, as
the result of fevers and exhaustion.
Eighty-seven of the men were conveyed
from Plat TO Muguegarao in bull carts,
and those falling on the way were car
ried in litters by the IgoroetteS with the
column.
The officers accompanying Maj. March
were Capts. Henry l.. Jenkinson and Ed
ward Davis, Lieuts Carroll Power and
Frank L. Case and DIR. ]. o. Green
walt, assistant surgeon. They say it is all
guess work as 10 whether Aguinaldo was
shot Before the Americans struck Sagat
the insurgent chief divided his forces into
parties of ten, following different trails.
The officer shot was perhaps Aguinado S
secrelaIy OF adjutant. The report among
the natives of the region is that Aguinal-
do was wounded in the shoulder.
The papers secured show that nearly all
the presidents installed by the Americans
In Gen. Young's territory are treacherous
and have been making regular reports to
Aguinaldo of the dispositions and move
ments of the American troops, and they
have been collecting and forwarding taxes.
The captured papers also prove the dis
loyalty of the native telegraph operators,
whom the Americans retained on the Cay
agan Valley line. When Tirona surren-
dered the Filipino forces in that section,
these operators protested loyalty and took
the oath of allegiance. But it is now
shown that they had been sending Agui-
naldo copies of important kilograms ex-
changed between the American officials.
Letters were also found relating to large
contributions forwarded to Aguinaldo from
Spanish and other foreign business men.

I'VE submit the corrupting influence of
colonial domination has already brought
disgrace upon the Republican party; that
the constitution and the pledges of the
Republican party have been violated In
Porto Rican legislation. Independence Is
withheld from the Cubans In defiance of

to military officers in Cuba. We demand
a repeal of the stamp tax; the election OF
United States senators by a direct vote
of the people; oppose a large standing
army; extend sympathies to the people
of the Transvaal and the Orange Free
State in their struggle for liberty; de-
mand the strict enforcement of the Mon
roe doctrine and the construction of the
Nicaraguan canal, and denounce the Hay
