Around the World. wcto all about mc and I soon learned that the soldiers' story was a fake; that the nearest point to Manila, at which I any fottifying was ever done by the Americans, was seven miles out and it was in i8gg; that there were no insur gents anywhere in the islands now un der anna excepting ladiones (outlaws) who arc in hiding in tfic southernmost islands, several however, I learn are to he found even in the suburbs of Manila; that some of the provinces bad elected American governors by direct vote of the people; and that such a state of peace had been attained that the pris oners ot war wcio tinned loose by proclamation last July; that multitude of prisoners swelled the ladrone ranks and added fuel to the Haines. 1 was informed that Aguinaldo has no follow ing whatever, it being doubtful whether lie could be elected to the smallest office by his own people because he was untrue to them in many ways. In the first place the Filipinos claim that Aguinaldo was in the campaign for what he could get out of it. When he co-operated with the American forces against the Spanish, he ordered his men to loot the city when Manila was taken. They began, but were stopped by the American officers saying that looting would not be tolerated, where upon Aguinaldo ordered his men to fire upon the American soldiers. War was on. Aguinaldo kept his agents out col lecting money from the Filipinos with which to carry on the war. Instead of paying the soldiers with the cash col lected, Aguinaldo kept it, sending it to Hong Kong as fast as large amouuts were accumulated, his soldiers remain ing unpaid. He lias the money now on deposit in Hong Kong and expects to open a bank of his own, being wealthy and living in luxury.
