that the Zafiro sailed yesterday from

MEET FOR PEACE
IN PHILIPPINES
Two Hundred ReYOlutiOnistS
Agree With Macarthur.
THEY EXPECT TO WIN
OVER AGUINALD0
Amnesty Is Proclaimed Within
Ninety Days.

Manila, June 21.-Two hundred Fill
ipinos met this morning in Manila to
determine honorable and decorous
methods for securing peace.
The results were submitted this even
ing to General Macarthur, who accept
ed them.
The leaders of the meeting will use
their influence to induce Aguinaldo to
accept the arrangements. If they are
successful, as they hope to be, they
believe AguinaldO will issue orders in
conjunction with the American author
tiles for the cessation of hOstilities.
The meeting, which was the first of
the kind since the days of the Filipino
congress, was composed of the distinct
revolutionary element, the American
istas" being lacking. Thirty political
prisoners were released from Jail this
morning in order to attend. Senior Pa
ternO presided and Senior BuencaminO,
the originator of the movement; Senior
Flores, General Pho del Pillar. General
Garcia, General Macabulos and other
prominent revolutionists were present.
1t was pointed out that the questions
to be considered were military and
civil. The military concerned a cessa-
ton of hOstilities and the civil the de-
termination of the political status of
the FilipinOs. The immediate object
of the meeting was to effect peace and
subsequently the leaders could consult
with the civil commission as to political
matters.
Hopes to Win AguinaldO.
1t was evident that Senior Palermo
was convinced that he could obtain
Aguinaldo's sanction to a peace based
upon the following seven clauses,
which, after four hours, were unan-
imOusly accepted as compatible with
an honorable peace:
First, amnesty.
Second, the return by the Americans
to the FilipinOs of cOnfiscated prop
erty.
Third, employment for the revolu-
tiOnary generals in the navy and mill
tia when established.
Fourth, the application of the Fill
Pine revenues to succOr needy Filipino
soldiers.
Fifth, a guarantee TO the Filipinos of
the exercise of personal rights accord
ed to Americans by their constitution
Sixth, establishment of civil govern
ments at Manila and in the provinces.
Seventh, expulsion of the friars.
The statement of the seventh cOndi-
ton was vOciferOusly acclaimed, the
entire assemblage shouting, "Expel
expel."
