San Francisco, May 26.-(R-For
the third time within a year Ameri. :.
can authority in the Philippine ISL
ands IS at grips with the outIaw
Moro bands Of Lanao district. island
or Mindanao, and a campaign is un-
der way designed to wipe out the nm.
land fortresses from which the Moros
have harried the peaceful country
around them.
Latest dispatches from Manila re-
port the destruction of two Of five
fortresses held by the Moros, with
zoo soldiers Of the Philippine con-
stabulary; under Colonel Luther R.
stevens, continuing operations
against the remaining three centers
OF resistance. Two constabuIary. sol
diers have been killed and eight
wounded, while native reports placc
the Moro losses at 40 killed.
The latest campaign of extcrmina
ton, like those preceding it, was cr-
dered only after attempts to induce
the outlaws to make peaceful sub
mission had failed. Months of dep-
relation and terror for the Lanao
inhabitants preceded Governor Cen
eral Woods order to move in force
against the outlaws.
The MorOs are MOslem. many Of
them extreme fanatics, and religious
hatred enters into their hostility to
the Christian Filipinos around them.

Meanwhile, those opposed to the

interest to see whether any definite
action will follow the White House
pronouncement, that, while the presi-
dent did not regard it as an invasion
of state rights nor as inconsistent
with the national enforcement policy,
he was willing to modify it if its
operation threatens to lead to harm
full consequences.
