Manila, Jan. 16.—Optimism is taking the place of conservatism among the military men here, the cause being the numerous surrenders, captures and de- struction of insurgent camps, coupled with the inc ing understanding of the Americans’ intenti among the natives, the propagation of the princi- ples of the federal party and the knowl- edge that they are approved by the United Stat Philippine commission | and the military authorit and that | the carrying out of the terms of Gen. | MacArthur’s proclamation classing all | who do things inimical to the interests of the American army as rebels and traitors are having pointed effect, with the offering of local autonemy and | protection and showing the certainty | of the punishment those who remain | rebellious.

The | inhabitants of the towns are disin- clined to any longer contribute secret- ly to the hopeless cause, and it is ve- lieved that the pacification of a suf- | ficient number of provinces to inau- gurate a general scheme of provincial government will be accomplished be- fore many more weeks have elapsed. The most pronounced resistance at present is in remote Southern Luzon, Northern Mindanao, Cebui and Bohol. The first batch of 30 leading insurgents who have been ordered to be deported to the island of Guam sail on the trans- port Rosecranz to-day. Gen. Wheaton reports that 53 armed Bolomen have surrendered at Benguet. Geronimo’s band were captured Jay night and brought to Montatban. WARNED.

Pretoria, Jan. 16. — British cavalry captured an adjutant on Commandant Beye! staff near Kaaifontein. Like the other members of this commando he was dressed in khaki.

Van Sant took up the sug- gestion made by Mr. Lind and stated his position in the matter. Goy. Van Sant said: “I wish to say something that is not incorporated in my message.
