Manila, April AFTER being con-

Geronimo, the insurgent leader in the
province of Morong. has surrendered
with six officers, forty-six men and fifty
rifles to Colonel J. Milton Thompson,
of the Forty-Second regiment at San
Mateo.
AS the news of Aguinal los capture
spreads throughout the archipelago
the insurgents are growing disheart-
ened and there is a marked increase in
the number of individual surrenders.
General Cables, who is particularly
outlawed on account of his atrocious
crimes, sent an emissary to General
Bates, who answered that he must sur
render Internationally and stand

ARE CONSIDERING FUNSTON.
His Present Commission as Briga-
der General Expires June 80.
AN ADDRESS BY AGUlNALDO.

Washington, April 1.-The meeting
of the cabinet was taken up in discuss
ing effects of the capture of Aguinaldo.
The president and all members of
the cabinet are in favor of the most
liberal and substantial recognition of
the service performed by General Fun
stOn. There was some discussion of
the question of making him brigadier
general in the regular army. but it was
thought full reports should be awaited
before action was taken. The matter
probably will be allowed to rest where
it is for tie present.
General Funston is holding a volun-
teer commission as brigadier general
which will not expire until June 80 of
this year, so that so far as honor and
emoluments are concerned his stand
ing would not be prejudiced by the
delay.
The disposition to be made of Aguin-
aldo was a matter that could not be
disposed of definitely. Whatever ac-
ton is taken in regard to him will
originate with the army officials in the
Philippines and be passed upon finally
here. There is no inclination to deal
harshly with the man who has led the
instruction against the forces of this
country. Some of the cabinet officers
think it is possible he may be used
with good effect by the authorities of
the Philippine commission in the es-
tablishment of civil government.
General MacArthur's dispatch sug-
gesting that Aguinaldo might issue an
address advising the insurgents to
accept the situation was pointed to as
Indicating possibilities along this line
On the other hand Aguinaldo's record
has not been such as to win for him
great confidence in his constancy and
if his influence cannot be utilized safe
ly he undoubtedly will be sent to some
place where he can foment no further
trouble. Guam was mentioned as a
possible place for his detention.

FRED FUNSTON'S PROMOTION
General Macarthur Suggests Rank
of Brigadier General.
AGUlNALDO ISSUES ADDRESS.

Washington, March 30.-A cable
gram received at the war department
from Macarthur tells in n succinct
way the history of Aguinaldo's capture.
1t gives all the credit to the brilliant
exploit to General Funston, whose
reward it suggests should be that of a
brigadier general in the regular army,
and finally closes with an expression
of confidence in the speedy cessation
of hostilities as a result of the capture.
General MacArthur's dispatch closes
with this: II hope for the speedy
cessation of hostilities throughout the
archipelago as a consequence of this
stroke, and as result of the confer
ence now in progress. Aguinaldo will
issue an address advising a general
surrender, delivery of arms and an
acceptance of American supremacy"
General Wheaton recommends Fun
ston's retention in the volunteers until
he can be appointed a brigadier general
in the regulars.
When captured, Aguinaldo was
tremendously excited. but he Gained
down under General Funston's assur-
ance that he would be well treated.
General Funston secured all of Aguin-
aldo's correspondence showing that he
had kept in close touch with the sub
chiefs of the instruction in all parts
of the archipelago. 1t was also dis
covered that Aguinaldo on January 2s
had proclaimed himself dictator.
Representative Long has been in
consultation with Secretary Root. The
old difficulty met him; that of causing
discord in army circles by displacing
officers in line for promotion by rails
ing volunteer officer to the rank OF
brigadier general in the regular army.

supplies. Cavalry horses are taken

ed. Farm animals are in good demand
and prices have held firm on the

trade is dull excepting in war animals,

been felt on the market
