lice authorities here on the emperor's
orders, will undo take an investiga-
ton of "Eddyism to secure material

Emperor William has also directed
that inquiry be made among promi-

of spiritualsm. The authorities con-
template measures against the spirit
ualists, such as the prohibition of
public seances where spirits are al
legged to appear and the prevention
OF mediums falling into frances for
the purpose of communicating with

GEN. BELLS EFFECTIVE WORK
The insurrectlon in Batangas Province
Practically Cleaned Up-MaIvar BecOm-
ing Unpopular Transport Raised.

Manila, Feb. 17.--Gen. j. Franklin
Bell has practically cleaned up the
insurrection in Batangas province, the
troops under his command having
made a clean sweep of the district.
1t is not believed that all the insur-
gent arms have been captured or sur
rendered, but that number Of them
have been taken by the insurgents
to other provinces or safely hidden.
The increase of robber bands in the
provinces Of Tayabas and Cavite show
the effects of the drastic measures
adopted in Batangas and Laguna
provinces. Gen. Bell says the people
of these latter provinces never
realized the terror of war until they
personally experienced its hardships,
owing to the closing of the ports and
the concentration of the natives in
the towns.
Gen. Bell believes that the insur-
gent leader Malvar is becoming ex-
ceedingly unpopular with the Fihpi-
nos and that when the natives cease
to fear his vengeance many will be
found willing to betray him. What
has been said of Batangas province
applies almost equally to Laguna.
