A—6 FIHPIN[]S ARREST - EXTREMIST CHIEF Island Constabulary Takes Widespread Action on Eve of Plebiscite. .o By the Associated Press. : MANILA, May 13.—Celerino Tiongco, , outstanding Sakdalista leader, wanted + by the Philippine constabulary “dead or alive,” was captured in Rizal prov- + ince, near Manila, today, as the islands seethed with rumors of impending violence. The constabulary met the persistent rumors of a new outbreak by the ex- tremists with island-wide precautions today, the eve of the plebiscite in swhich the Filipinos will vote whether to accept or reject the American offer ,of independence, Tiongco, editor of the newspaper +Sakdal, had been hiding out in the ‘hills with several hundred extremists. ‘The Sakdal was barred from the mails *before the Sakdalista uprising May 2 «which cost 60 lives. Simeon Decena, secretary of the Sakdal party, was arrested yesterday .with 80 others, but denied any part «in the recent violence. He asserted ‘ther are several thousand Sakdalistas in Manila. The secretary said Benigno Ramos, Sakdalista leader now in Japan, is ‘well supplied with funds. Ramos, whom Tiongco succeeded as editor of the Sakdal, fled the islands shortly before the May 2 outbreak. He has declared that outbreak was ‘without his sanction, but his admis- sion that he planned an uprising for May 14, fhe day of the plebiscite, was one of the factors spurring the con- stabulary to extraordinary precau- tions. Ballot Boxes Destroyed. Destruction of several ballot boxes at Naga, capital of Camarines sur Province, by extremists was reported today. Tiongeo, after his arrest, accused Ramos of ordering the May 2 upris- ing. He revealed that Ramos and their Sakdal leaders conferred in To- kio in February. He asserted Ramos counseled violence in connection with the election, but other leaders objected. As a result Ramos resigned by mail May 1, editor of the party newspaper Tiongeo said he planned a mass | demonstration on the eve of the pleb- iscite, but did not advocate violence, and fled when the revolt occurred. He said 400 Sakdalistas now are +“starving” in the hills 20 miles from Manila, afraid to emerge knowing | they would be arrested. Certification Next Step. The next step on the road to inde- | pendence for the 14.000,000 Fillipinos, as pointed out by Congress, is certifi- cation of the vote within 30 days, and | then the calling by Gov. General‘ Frank Murphy of an election of offi- | cers, to be held in from three to six months. Filipino leaders hope to have this election in September and the new commonwealth set up by the end of the year. Though Filipinos will be in complete charge of the government, there will be an American high com- missioner and the United States Army and Navy will remain on the scene. + Manuel Quezon, president of the | Philippine Senate, is the outstanding candidate for President of the com- monwealth, despite the prospective | candidacy of Gen. Emilio Aguinaldo, a | leader of the 1899- 1900 insurrection. LAMSON JURY AGAIN - STRIVES FOR VERDICT Three Days Without Agreement, !

Lamson, who once was senunced‘ to death for wife murder. To all outward appearances, the | jury of seven men and five women still was as far from a verdict as it was when given the case Friday. The jury yesterday asked Superior Judge R. R.
