Cali on Rhudy, Harvey DEM.fIGUINfILDU Reticent About The Filtilrc Os Philippines iVIAKRS EVASIVE REPLY When Asked Direct questions By A Reporter- Manila Bay, Juno 20. —I asked Gm. Aguinaldo, the insurgent hader to-day to give me a message to the American people, He said; “On behalf of all the native in habitants of the Philippines, I ask for the eempathy of Americans in our eflfoits to better our condition and prove ourselves worthy of bet ter treatment than has ever been given to us by the Spaniards. He hesitated for a few minutes, placed his hand to his forehead as of to think whether there was any thing else he could say, and then c mtinued: “May the Americans and the Filippinos work together for the expulsion of Spaniards and Span ish influence forever from the Philippine Islands, and for the making of a good government that will b« satisfactory to Americans and Filippinos alike. “I do not think of more I can say that would interest the Ameri can people. Please extend my greetings to all American who are concerned in the welfare of these island with expression of my gratis ful aphreciation of the splendid service already done by their fleet under Admiral Dewey to end Span ish control of the Philipdines.” I did my best to persuade the insurgents chief to slate his views as to the future of the islands, the kind of the government to be expected or desired and the political relations of Amer* inane and Filipinos, bu t he candidly explained that it would be impolitic for him to give public utterances to his wishes and expectations before the crisis was over and both he and the Americans were faced with the issues that must arise after Manila is captured. They look forward, according to the situation today, to a Phil ippine Republic under the pro tection of the United States.

Washington, D. a G X Hl-NSCOTEH, AXV.x.Ob»ttaß«c W *,Taaß YOU ARb FIGHTERS Says Sir Alfred Payst, of England, Who WAS AT SANTIAGO And Saw Fo> Himself. Will Re main With Our Army. Probably the keenest observer of the war at Santiago, both by land and son, and one of the bravest, was Sir Alfred Paget, naval attache of the English government. Sir Alfred ra iks as captain and came over to see ths war, and he is bound to see it. His heart and soul favors America and it was his good fortune to see the charge of San Juan hill. He was extremely enthus iastic over the battle, and in telling of it he referred to the army as “we,” and to any act of ths soldiers as “Our nr n did this” and “Our men did that.” ('apt. Paget Was on Gen. Shaf ter’s flagship, the Seguranea, during the destruction of Cer vera’s fleet. He is a tar of the first water and wanted to get close in with the war vessels. The captain of the Seguranca kept at a safe distance and Capt. Alfred was was franctic because he eould no get closer. After it was all over he smiled, and with an air o r satisfaction said : “Oh. it was a grand victory.” Capt. Paget is an old cam paigner, and can adapt himself to circumstances without a mur mur. One evening he walked from the front to Siboney (12 miles ) but could not hail the Sermranca. Theie was no 4helt n r for him anywhere, but this did not annoy him, for he got hold of a piece of canvas, and, wrap ping it about himself, he lay on the postoffice steps, at the invi tation of Eben Brewer, who since died of the yellow fever. The next morning I had him for my guest at breakfast of hard tack, coffee and bacon. He said he had slept like a child. Just to think' a man, who has turned 60 saying that be had slept on a narrow step on a piece of can vas like a child ! While we were demolishing our hard tack I asked him what he thought of the war as far as it bad gone He was very guard ed in v. hat he said, the substance ot which was this: “You Americans are great fighters. You have a great army and the recent battle and the quartet of bombardments con vince one that the eight inch gun is one for the war vessel. It is easy to handle, and can do all that is needed in any kind of a sea bat le. “Your army is well equipped. You have good arms and good ammunition, but you must have a larger standing army. “Your artillery is made up of brave men. but your guns are too ancient. You must get—and get them soon—more modern guns. ” Capt. Padget will remain to see the Havana campaign.

IMJI , ~ , . ■— , RELIABILITY is a quality some newspapers have lost sight of in these days of “yellow” journalism. They care little for truth and a great deal for temporary sensation. It is not so with THE CHICAGO RECORD. * The success of THE RECORD rests upon its reliability. y': It prints the news—all the news—and tells the truth I about it. a It is the only American newspaper outside New York city that has its own exclusive dispatch boat service and its > own staff correspondents and artists at the front in both '* hemispheres. It is the best illustrated daily newspaper in the world. , Its war news service is unapproachably the best. Says the Urbana (111.) Daily Courier: ••We read the war news in the other papers, then we turn to THE CHICAGO RECORD to see how much of it is true.” Sold by newsdealers everywhere and subscriptions by al) postmasters.
