The War in the Philippines.

HOW THE AMERICANS DEAL

WITH GUERILLAS.

The latest baton of newspapers from the "Far last contain much interesting wading in regard to the war in the Philippines. It appears that the war waa ! practically over' some time ago, but now it has broken out afresh, and a guerilla campaign has been sef. on foot against the American., and is spreading from island to island, The facts are given by the Manila Times whioh Is, of coarse, quite friendly to Ihe American cause. The islands of Saoa&i- and Oebu are the chief seats of th© new insurrectionary movement. "What is the oanaa of the outbreak . The Manila Times says :—' The reason lor the wldeskread recrudescence of insurrection in the Philippines is gener ally given as over confidence on the part of tbe Americans, leading thetn to abandon military government too soon In favour of the civil rule,' Not less instructive is the same paper in ex plaining the methods of American Generals. It appears that the head of the guerillas in Samar is

A LOCAL DK WET NAMED LUKBAN. He ia quite aa formidable and elusive as hia South African analogue. The problem before the American Generals Is twofold. In tho first place they have to localise the outbreak and pre vent succour and information reaching Lukban from the mote settled islands, and in .he next place they have to deal Hternly with the guerillas in the field, In order to localise the rebellion a service of gunboats has been organised od the channels which represent in the Philippines what the Orange River ia ! in Sooth Africa. Mere ' all traffic and travel' are suspended :—' Orders of warning have been Issued, and any boats cruising around will have a sorry pud to their voyage if they encounter tiny gnnboa.s, aa the armed vessels in thfiie waters have orders to blow them out of tho water without asking any * questions. General Smith is deter ___sn«_ that there shall be a complete tind effectual blockade of Samar, and a cessation of the famishing of supplies to Lot-bin's forces over there." The way. in which tbe FILIPINO SIMPATHISERS are treated Is drastic in the extreme:— 11 General Baghea'i policy of striking ftl. the real seat of the power of the iniorreoto movement by arresting the so-called * amigos,* presidentes, prin cipales, priests, and cabez.s who have secretly nnrtured the insarrectos while pretending loyalty, has thrown a large body of that sort of gentry into an byste.ical panic lest they might like wise be seized, and the retaliation -policy of campaigning seems to be bringing forth satisfactory results. There is some hope that widespread knowledge of the fact that this course will be pursued wherever the many beaded ipsurrecto movement raises itself upright, whether disguised under the name ' Katipunan,'' Reunien Re volucionarie,' ' Partido Federal'—that is what it called itself here—.will result in causing those ' leaders' of a carabao sort of intellect to stop a moment before running amuck. Even a cara bao shuns fire. So tbe present tactics may be sat down aa less harsh than they seem, if not counted actually benefictnt, when the restraining in fluence they will exert in the future is taken into the reckoning" In the Hold the policy of the American Gene rals is equally unceremonious.
