MacArthur Declares Manila Attack Was the “Real Thing.” WASHINGTON, April 12—The Senate Committee on the Philippines began its proceedings to-day by adopting a resolu- tion offered by Senator Carmack, calling { upon the Secretary of War for all the| orders, circulars and official reports re- | ceived from commanders apd their sub- | ordinates in the provinces of Tayabas, Batangds, Samar and laguna. General Ma rthur was again to-day | the only witness before the cummilleevi and his examination was begun by Sena- | tor Culberson. His questions related to | the relationship between the native forces and the American troops when the latter first landea at Manila. Senator Culber- | | son called attention to the fact that'there | is testimony on file to the effect that| General Anderson had writen to Agui- | naldo inviting his ¢o-operation at Manila, | and that the iatter had accepted, and that | it also is stated that General Merritt had | himself sent an aid to General Greene, | suggesting that arrangements be made with_the Filipinos for a common under- | standing in the occupation of the] | trenches. He-then askea if, in view of | these facts, the.inference was not author- | ized that rriendly co-operation ~was de- | sired by the Ameri officials with the Filipinos ‘in the atiack upon the Span-| iaras. “Assuming the facts to be as stated,” the witness replied; “if that were all there is 'n the premises, it might be admitted | that inference was to be drawn as indi- cated. But there are other facts which form a part of the case and which show | | the co-operation in the attack on Manila was not a voluntary one on our part.”’ General MacArthur then related that | on the evening previous to the attack on { Manila, after General Merritt had issued { Pis order of battle, he (MacArthur) was in corsuitation with General Anderson when the latter received a communica- tion from General Merritt, directing him to infcrm Aguinaldo that the battle which was to take place next day was between, the Americans and Spaniards | and that he must not participate under | any circumstances. Aguinaldo was at that time, General MacArthur said, five wiiles a , and the message was sent to by wire. He knew, however, that the Filipino leader had received it, be- | cause he had declined to accept the sug- | gestion, and he and his native forces had perticipated in the engagement the next | day. What had become of that communi- | cation General MacArthur said he did not kno “Have. you any question now, as a sol- | dier an officer of the army, that there | was an understanding that the resistance | of the Spaniards was to be purely nom- | asked Senator Patterson. | “Yes, 1 have a good deal of question on | that point,” replied the witness. *I have | such an t T have seen in | that I understood | fight, and all that | e contrary has been | i “Do you in your testimony distinguish between official information and informa- | tion that may have come to you through other sources?” | “My desire is to speak here the truth, | truth and nothing but the | pru nt. the w truth Patterson insisted upon: an explicit re- ply to his question, but General MacAr- | thur declared that he could not answer mere directly. He added that he had | spoken without reservation, Before ‘the .committee adjourned ‘Pat- | terson was permitted to propound an in- | cuiry which he said he did at the instance | of a representative of the Boer cause, as | io whether Ge: MacArthur had any | knowledge of the enlistment of Ameri- cans in the Philippines for service in the | British army in South Africa. General MacArthur replied that he had not. ole ST. THOMAS' GOVERNOR ENTERTAINS AMERICANS | Officers of North Atlantic Squadron Guests of the Danish Authorities. ST. THOMAS, D.
