TO PUNISH HOSTILE MOROs.
GENERAL SUMNER ORDERED To MOVE
AGAINST THEM

Manila, sept S.-GeneraI Chaffee has orderas
General Sumner, commanding the Department
of Mindanao. to lead column against the Macin
Moros. In his order General Chafee suggests
that eight companies OF infantry. two troops Of
cavalry and one battery shall form at CamD
Vickars. island of Nindanao- IL is expected
that the column will move within week. Most
of the attacks upon the American forces have
originated in the Macin country. This move
nlent is to be directed against hostiles several
of whom enumerated in General Chaffee's
order General Summer is directed to require
the hostiles TO give satisfactory pledge to re-
frain from aggression in the future.
There are several Moro StronGhOidS in the
Macin country. It is not definitely known where
the first oppositio. will be encountered This
will depend upon General Summers course after
moving. General Sumner is directed to protect
the friendly natives

FIGHTING WITH THE MOROs
ONE SOLDIER KILLED-ONE OFFICER and
ONE MAN WOUNDED.

ONE MAN WOUNDED
Washington, Sept. S.-The War Department
has received cable dispatch from General
Chaffee, dated Manila September S. saying that
an attack made the United States troops
at Mailing Falls, seven miles from Camp Wick
ars. by Moros on September I. First Lieutenant
William NJ Parker, 18th Infantry, and one
soldier wounded and soldier was
killed. General Chaffee also says:
Have authorized BrigadieT General Samuel
S. Sumner to move troops into Macin country
and exact promise of good behavior in future
from DatOs and followers. Troops have been
attacked twelve times since May ,, with loss
to of four killed and twelve wounded. We
have remained all the time quiet. seeking friend
ship; in action self-defence only
The last part of General Chanee's dispatch
evidently is intended to inform the War De
partment that the army has been acting wholly
on the defensive on the Moro country. His in
structfons have been to do nothing which would
provoke a conflict with the Moros. and the po-
sition of the War Department is that If there is
a conflict it must be justified by the aSgres-
sions of the Moros. Some time ago General
Chaffee asked for authority to attack the MOros
Immediately. but he was advised that the de-
partment wished TO avoid hostilities If pos
sibIe. At the same time IL has long been the
belief of officials of the department that an ag-
gressive campaign in Mindanao is lneVltaDie.
and Ii would not be surprising If there sAouId
be a forward movement of United states troops
in short time.
