MASSACRE 0RDER
PA 4 [ ]
Secretary ofWar Sent Reply to
Senate's Request for
information.

z (BJ Associated Press.
wASHINGTON,EA April 4.-The Secretary
OF War has sent to the Senate his reply.
to the resolution calling on him for in
formation tending to show the authenticl-
ty and genuineness Of the alleged order
for. the massacre OF the foreign residents
OF Manila on the evening and night OF.
February Is, 1899. He submits a photo
graphic reproduction of the alleged mas
sacre order, bearing date Of February .,
1889, together with papers Intended 10
demonstrate that it is an absolute copy
of an original actually issued bp the late
General Luna. Aguinaldo afnrn1s the gen
uineness OF Luan's signature to the or
der.
The Secretary's report states that Luna
was at that time director or Assistant
Secretary OF War Of the Malolos Govern
ment, and commanding general Of the
Philippine army. operating in the north
ern boundaries of the city of Manila.
Sandico, generally believed to have been
the author of this order, was a member
of General Luna staff and probably the
medium through which the order was
given by Luna to the chiefs of militia
stationed in Manila.
The Secretary says that this Luna order
was discovered in the personal effects OF
Lieutenant Colonel Jose Leyba, an inti-
mate friend Of General Luna, member OF
his staff. and one OF the most active Off
GERS who took part in the defense of the
Philippine positions from Caloocan on the
outskirts of Manila to Tarlac. Finally, on
February 3d. 1899, little over two weeks
after the date of the order, daring
attack was made by the insurrectos on
the American forces in Manila.

The motormen and conductors OF the

want a nine-hour work day, and from
the action of the men who attended the

by the summer months. There was a
committee appointed at a former meetia 6
to see the general manager of the COM
pany and decide, if possible on terms.
This committee, owing to sickness of two
of it's members, did not see Mr.. Dmmock.
anu was continued last night. with in
structions to see him this week and make
a report at the next meeting.
The helping of the men who are on the
strike in Norfolk again came before the
union, and the sum of So was appropriate
ed for them. At the meeting last week
SIPS was sent to the officials of the union
in that city.
The cut in the wages to be made when
the proposed nine-hour system goes into
effect is an important question with the
men: nevertheless, they are all in favor
of fewer hours. When the petition was
circulated last year there were some who
wanted nine hours with n reduction in
pay While others said they could not
live with any less money than they were
getting.
