killed; while the former indicated
that they escaped.

New Branch of the Katipunan.
A new branch of the Katipunan has
been discovered at Tarlac, capital OF
the province at that name. The OBJ
ject of the society is the slaughter OF
the whites. Marcelino Mariville, pres
ident of Banoang, is the chief OF h
new branch, which includes numbers
of the native constabulary, who were
recently armed. One policeman ad-
mits that he was taxed a dollar and
was ordered to make bolos. A regu-
lar collection has been made by the
organization from the natives, either
by persuasion or threats, and an up
rising had been planned for an early
date.
Guerilla Warfare
The conditions in Tayants (Taya-
bas) and Batangas are not reassur-
ing. The worst kind of guerilla war
fare prevails there. The insurgent
forces are distributed, under cover,
along every road and trial and wait
for travellers in ambush.
The insurgent leader Caballos (who
formerly belonged to Ger. Cables
command, but who refused to surren-
der with C~ailles) is retreating to The
mountains. The main forces of the in
surgents are scattered in bands over
the province, where they dig up rifles
when there is an opportunity to use
them.
