Manila, March 3.-While Gov.
Flores. Of the province of Rial, was
chasing Felizardo and his band of
Ladrones over the hills of Cavite

men armed with rifles, entered the
town Of Cainta, in Morong province.
and captured the presidente Of Cainta,
Senior Ampil, and majority Of the
police Of the town. Senior Ampil has
long been known as an enthusiastic
American sympathizer and it is
feared that he may be killed by the
enraged Ladrones. A strong force Of
constabulary has been sent to effect
his release.

FUNSTON INTERVIEWED.
The Famous Kansan Says There Il No Wal
In the Philippines, but Assassins
Lurk Around.

New York, March 4.-Brig. Gen
Frederick Funston, who is in this city
en- route to Washington, had talk
with a Herald reporter and said:
"There is no more war in the Philip
pines than there is in Kentucky. AS
sassins Turk in the cane and shoot
down men who are at their mercy, but
there are no soldiers in the field to
battle with the United States troops.
Even respectable guerrilla warfare
has ceased. There has been no fight
ing in any Of the Philippine prov
inces for nearly six months. 1t has
been said that I have opposed the
reduction of our forces in the east.
That is a mistake. In my opinion
one-balf of our troops might be
brought home now, and ut the end of
q year one-half of those remaining
might be returned. At the same
time, too much latitude should not
be given to the natives of the Philip
pines. They are not ready for self
government and they belong to that
class of people who look upon kind
ness as show of weakness"
