CONTINUES HIS TESTIMONY.
General Macarthur Before Senate
Committee on Philippines.

Washington, May 2.-Major General
Macarthur continued his testimony
before the senate committee on the
Philippines. Answering question by
Senator Culberson the general stated
that Aguinaldo and the Filipino peo-
pie we're justified in concluding that
the actions Of the United States army
were sympathetic. The Filipinos, he
said, were in a resentful and vindfctive
opposition to Spain and any active
force on their part against Spain nat
urally helped the United States and
vice versa; but, he said, there was a
distinct purpose throughout the inter-
course between the Americans and the
Filipinos to repudiate the idea of di-
rect cooperation, which in way COM
mitted the United States to a policy.
General Merritt, he said, was under
the strictest orders not to commit the
government. but Aguinaldo was anx-
ious to make an artificial record,
which would oblige General Merritt to
do something he did not want to do.
"The Filipino" said General MacAr-
thur, "has quite comprehensive
knowledge of Latin diplomacy
! Aguinaldo was landed at Manila
aboard an American warship because
he was useful individual who could
be employed in a matter that would
contribute to American success.

Monopoly in the British Horse and

Kansas City, May 2.-All the big

joint protest to the British war Office,
alleging that the British agents here
to buy horses and mules refuse to con-
slider propositions from them. They
say that the Guyton-Harrington COM
pany, proprietors of the Camp" at
Lathrop, Mo-, have a monopoly OF the
business and are receiving from $40 to
$25 a head for mules more than they
ARE worth. -,
The Kansas, City men declare that

fairs is due to the fact that there il

consideration. 1t simply amounted to

prevent British subject from selling

the matter referred to was very seri-
Gus, but such a drastic change in es-
