T.<o>. has submitted hi. report to tips War Deportment. A considerable portion of the report re late* to events which look p are previous to the date when he assumed command, and he publishes some of the correspond ence and proclamations of the Filipinos, obtained before that lime. lie refers to the change of Agulnnido's plans In aban dot.lng his army organlxatlon and starling a guerilla warfare. The conditions of the country have afforded advantages for such a policy, he saya. ns they have en abled the Insurgents to appear and dis appear at their convenience. At one time they are soldiers and Immediately after are within lha American lines In the at titude of peaceful natives. A widely scattered formation of Fili pinos quu-kly followed the guerilla war fare. which led to a corresponding dis semination of American troop*, there be ing fifty-three military stations on the archipelago Nov. 1. IKS9, and 413 stattona Sept. 1. 1900. This resulted In a large number of minor affairs. many of wh'rh dkl not a -ume the dignity of a regular combat, though the casualties between the dales stated were 26* Americans kill ed. 750 wounded and 55 captured; the Fil ipino losses during the same period be ing *,227 killed, 601 wounded, and 2.664 captured. Gen. Mao Arthur says the extensive dis tribution of imops baa atratat i dlers of the army to the full limit of en durance. lie says the apparent desul tory work has demanded more of disci pline and as much valor as was requir ed during the period of regular operations against concentrated field forces of In surrectionists. Not Naturally Wnrllkf. Gan MacArthur speaks in lha high eat term# of ilia service rendered by the troops apnld all tabors and hardships. '/•The Filipinos," says Oen. M.v-Arthnr, Tare not a warlike or ferocious people (Left to themselves a larite number of •them would gladly acceps American ju. premary, which they are gradually com insr to understand means Individual liberty and atoolutc security In their lives and property. They have been maddened, however, during the past five years by rhetorical sophistry, and stimulants ap plied to national pride, until power of dlacrlmlnattntc In matters of public con cern or private Interest, has been almost entirely suspended. Asa substitute for all other considerations, the people seem to he actuated by the Idea that In all doubtful masters of polities or war. men are never nearer right than when going with their own kith and kin regardless of consequences." This condition, he says, has raised diffi culties and obstructions In pacification. The effort to Institute municipal gov ernment under American auspices carried the Idea of exclusive fidelity to the United bates, hut this met with difficulties where Filipinos were placed entirely In control, and secret municipal governments ware organised In various town* under In surgent auspices to proceed simultaneous ly with the American government and often through the same personnel. Presl d-tlta and tojvn officials acted openly In t-half of Americans and secretly In be half of the Insurgents, "and paradoxlwl at It may seem, wllh considerable appar rnt solicitude for the Interesta of both.” Towns Aid InaiirKrnta . Wherever there Is a group of Insurgent foretw, contiguous towns contribute to their support and render groal assistance In secreting the soldiers and helping them to escape. The report says the success of the guerilla system depends upon com plete unity of acllon among the native populated. That thera Is auch unity ie frankly acknowledged, but how It is brought about Gen. MacArthur says ho Is unable to aacerialn. Intimidation ac counts for the condition to some extent, but fear would not be successful us the only motlva. He adl: It is more probable that the adhesive principle comes from ethnological homo gently, which Inducse men to respond for * time to the appeals of consanguineous leadership even when such acllon Is op posed to their own Interest and convle lions of expediency." ll* -ays that Ihls statement applies to the entire archipelago, excepting the por tion of Mindanao occupied by Moror, and 'he Jolo group, the Moros aeem entirely sat.sfled with present conditions.
