MANILA, Oct. 2—The Insurgents | cut the telegraph line between Bacoor and Manila at 8 o'clock to-night, and this message to Manila had to be sent through by water. T i | | 1899, by James Gor- | The rebels made an attack upon Ba- coor at half-past 8 o’clock this morning | and the fight lasted until dark. Gen- eral Grant conducted the operations of | the American forces in person on the firing line. The Filipinos first cut the | telegraph wires running from Bacoor | to Imus and ambushed the American patrol, consisting of eight men. A sig- nal sergeant was killed and two other Americans were wounded. The little | band was reinforced by a company of | the Fourteenth Infantry and three companies of the Fourth, which were hurriedly sent out from Imus and fought their way through along the road to their relief. The rebels were fighting at 4 o’clock this afternoon from across a deep river fifty yards wide. Eight men in all of | the American troops had been wounded | up to that time and two had been | killed. - An advance will be made to- | morrow on the insurgents. | General Alejandrino, head of the | Filipino military commission now con- ferring with General Otis, said in an in- | | | cept a protectorate under the United States. We fought Spain because we did not wish longer to be a colony. A colonial government under American rule would be worse than Spanish, be- cause you know nothing about the wav to govern colonies. We do not want to be experimented on for a century while you learn how. With England it would be another matter. ! “You are another race and are not | in sympathy with us. We know how to rule our own people. We do not un- derstand why your powerful nation wants to crus us like insects. You can conquer us because you are rich and our soldiers cannot fight success- | | | | | | = until i | | | fully against yours. We want an hon- orable peace, but we will fight death for our institutions. We know every military move that you make and get every day local American newspapers. ~We know what the United States papers say. We hf‘!i\“\:e‘ that a few men, whom you call politi- cians, are waging this war, and that the people of the United * States will soon change in our favor. “Admiral Dewey promised me in| Hongkong that at the termination of the war with Spain the Filipinos would | be given their independence. Dewey was our best friend, but we understand now that he will not be permitted to keep his word with us. We do not un- derstand why General Otis refuses to | recognize our government unless he is | afraid that other foreign powers \\'ill} Tn an hour's interview with the com- | mission they gave many evidences of cure recognition as a nation before making any attempt at treating for peace. They also showed much depres- sion over their complete failure in the battles with the American troops and also full recognition of the fact that if the campalgn against them was pros- ecuted vigorously by Otis it must mean their utter defeat soon. WASHINGTON, Oct. 2.—A dispatch from General Otis was received at the ‘War Department this morning giving ¢ an account of his meeting with the in- surgent envoys. General Otis said the interview with Aguinaldo's representa- tives indicated that the leaders were | maneuvering solely with a view to se- | cure recognition of the insurgent gov- ernment. All such overtures were re- jected and the envoys were informed that the only thing the United States would recognize was a white flag and the grounding of arms. He also in- formed the envoys that such capitula- {tion on the part of the Insurgents | should come quickly in order to avoid the consequences of active war, as the | United States did not intend to permit any delay in the matter. The course of General Otis is ap- proved at the War Department, Secretary Root took the dispatch | from General Otis over to the White | House for the President’s considera- tion. NO OFFICIAL ADVICES OF THE BACOOR FIGHT WASHINGTON, Oct. 2.—No official ad- vices had been received up to midnight concerning the engagement with the in. surgents at Bacoor by troops under Gen- eral Grant. There are about 7000 troops under command of Generals Grant and Young south of Manila and within easy reach of Bacoor—a force ample, the au- thorities sa to cope with the number of insurgents supposed to be in that vicinity, General Otls has sent word of the re. lease of the American prisoners held by the Filipinos and of his refusal to recog- nize the so-called Filipino Government. This action of the commander has re- ceived the entire approval of the Presi dent and Secretary Root. It is stated that the general made it plain to the Fili- pino envoys that nothing but uncondi- tional surrender would be considered by this Government, and it is Intended to stand by this declaration, even after the fall operations begin and no matter how the insurgents may beg for - Garonne Reaches Manila.
