Surrender of Fumes.
WASHINGTON, Aprn 9.-Late mail
advices to the War Department con-
tain the details of the surrender of
the insurgent leader Emitrio Fumes at
Bulan, on February 22d last, which
has already been touched upon briefly
in the cable dispatches from Manila.
The expedition to capture Fumes was
instigated by the Federal party, and
consisted of Second Lieutenant B. F.
Disque, of the Forty seventh Volun-
teer Infantry and twenty-five enlisted
men of Company B of that regiment.
The soldiers were accompanied by
four members of the Federal party of
Bulan, who. upon arrival at Irocin ad-
dressed the people of the village gath
cred in a convent, setting forth to
them the advantage that would accrue
to them by declaration of fealty to
the American cause. As consequence
1073 natives from the surrounding
country took the oath of allegiance
within the next few days. Meanwhile,
Emitrio Fumes had signified his inten-
ton to surrender all the insurgent
forces in Sargoson province to the
Americans. but asked permission TO
take part in the celebration of Wash
ington's birthday at Bulan on the 22d.
For this reason the forces under his
command were allowed to retain their
arms, although officers and men took
the oath of allegiance on the evening
of the 21st The next evening the en-
tire force formally laid down their
arms at Bulan. Captain McLain Of
Company B, who commanded the post
at Bulan, expresses the opinion in his
report that this surrender brought all
armed instruction in Sargoson pro-
vince to an end. The total military
force which surrendered consisted of
thirty-fou officers and 1876 men.

Major General B. NJ. Young, who has |
Just returned to Washington after |
serving nearly two years in the Phil
ppines. had this to say about condi- |
tons in the islands:
In the six weeks that have elapsed |
since I left the islands, some impor-
ant changes have been wrought. so

ust what the situation is in Luzon

capture of Aguinaldo, and his accept
lnce OF American authority will have
! beneficial effect and no doubt
strong tendency to bring about peace
Ind order. Some of the leaders win
come in and surrender, as /
zee small bands are doing from day TO
lay. It is impossible to say what
uch men as Alejandrino and Santos
vill do. They may decide to follow
Aguinaldo's example and again they
