Panic in the Philippines

Senor Amoril, presidente of the town of Cantai, province of Morong, Luzon, who is well known as an American sympathizer, and who was recently captured by the insurgents, has been rescued from his Captors.
 Senor Amoril says that the insur- gent force which took him prisoner is an entirely new organization, and
 onsists of fifty-fve uniformed men armed with rifles, all of whom wear police badges. Since the capture of Senor Amoril, the province of Morong has been in ierment. The unrest has grown with Amoril's return, and the spreading of his reports of new organizations. The excitement is now intense, and many of the inhabitants of the province who have been friendly to the United States authorities are leaving their houses and. emigrating in the hope of saving their lives.
 The Manila American, copies of which have just arrived, says it has very good reason for believing that recently vessel flying the German flag landed NIauser rifles on the coast of Bantangas for the use of the insurgents. It is said that the shipment comprised 70 cases, or about HOO rifles, with amunition.
 The policy to be pursued in this brigade from this time on will be to wage war in the sharpest and most decisive manner possible" an- nounces Gen. Smith, in command of the American forces in the islands of Samar and Peyte, P. l., in circular appearing in recent issue of Philip pine newspaper. Gen. Smith declares that he has satisfied himself that the war against the American forces in Samar is being kept alive by the support of ostensibly "peaceful" na- tires of the wealthier classes.
 The health report of the, military division of the Philippines for the month ending January l5 last shows the percentage of sick was 6.16 and the total sick 2534 cases. There were 59 deaths during the month, de- crease of eighteen, compared, with the previous month.
 Acting Governor Wright says that the province of Morong and the entire provine of Rizal were never more peaceful than they are now, and that the recent occurrences were entirely due to the influence of the insur- recteros who had been driven from Laguna and Batangas provinces.
