In the course Of his testimony yesterday
Admiral Dewey said regarding his depar-
ture from Hong Kong before the battle of
Manila bay that ne had left for Manila as
as early as he did largely because he
wanted to get rid OF Aguinaldo and the
other little brown men, many of whom
were constantly coming aboard his flag
ship. Il was very busy he said, getting
ready for battle. and they were after me
constantly, taking up much Of my time.
None of them went with me to Mirz bay.
for various reasons. One of them failed to
do SO because he didn't have his tooth
brush with him.
The Hong Kong Filipinos had not, he
added. told him OF any insurrection in the
Philippines. and he said he had consented
TO see them on the same principle that one
gives money to a man often TO get rid of
him. Indeed. he had himself given Agui-
naldo the first Information the latter had
received that the Filipinos were assembling
near Manila.
