Papers Discuss the Probability
of an Outbreak.
NATIVES LEAVE AMERICAN EMPLOYERS
Federal OmeiaIs Active-Authoritics DO
Not Fear an Uprising nj the Present
Time Because Rebels Seem to
Lack Courage-Other News.

A Manila, May 1ith dispatch says
the latest runor OF an outbreak in
Manila among the natives, which was
in circulation last week, was seriously
discussed by some of the local papers,
and has attracted more attention than
has usually been the case on this point.
AS n matter of fact, many Filipinos
did leave their American employers
with the apparent intention of join.
ing some such movement. Their ac-
ton, taken in connection with the ar
rest Of several natives for carrying
concealed wcapons and the dispersion
of several suspicious gatherings gave
color to the reports.
The officials have been active in the
matter, but are not inclined to think
an uprising will be attempted. They
believe the Filipinos are lacking in
the necessary courage, and especially
in view Of the fact that the natives
feared to attempt the demonstration
at the time of General Lawton's fun
eral, although they had made careful
preparations and many insurgents had
come to Manila for this express pur-
pose.
A paper found among the captured
effects of General Pantalcon Garcia
asserts that the United States con-
gress had done nothing for the Fill
pinos, and that therefore, all Filipinos
who are working for Americans must
leave their employers immediately or
suffer the penalty of treason
One report is that the Filipino junta
is cndcavoring To incite an outbreak
in order to show the civil commission
that the insurrcction is still alive.
IL does not seem probable that the
peace proposals which Senior Buen-
canine, at one time a member of the
so-callcd Filipino government, has
drawn up for submission to Aguinaldc
and other insurgent leaders will have
much weight with the Filipinos.
B~uencamino's opinion gained in other
wars, is that of n man who hurries to
get on the winning side. lie was in
disfavor with the Filipinos even be-
fore the collapse Of their government,
owing To II widespread suspicion of his
loyalty to his colleagues.

upon the suspicion and jealousy with
which official circles in Russia are
watching the progress of the Turko-
American dispute.
He quotes at great length from an
important article sanctioned by the
Turkish censor, that has appeared in
the Odessky Listok, which declares
that "the imperial policy Of the Unit
ed states is prompted by the necessity
of finding new outlets for trade
Commenting on the report that the
United States government was pre-
pared TO dispatch a strong fleet to Eu-
rope, the writer hints that Russia
would head the powers in preventing
such a violation of Turkish waters"
