PEACE ElllSSlNIES RETURN TO OTIS American Conunander Still Declines to Grant Arguistice—Negotiatione Win Continue—President Mc- Iiinley Is Very Hopefuls MANILA, May 3.—Heavy fighting by General Lawton’s troops was reported to be in progress near Balinag yester- day. The wires are cut, and no further news is obtainable. General Lawton encountered strong resistance from the enemy near San Rafael, losing one man killed and five wounded. A reconnoitering party ob- served several Hundred refugees near San Simon, four miles north of Apalit. Many of them were suffering from smallpox and fevers, and all were in wretched condition. A large body of soldiers is reported to be marching west from Balinag across the marsh road toward Sa 1 Lu s, seven miles north of Calumpit. More Maccabebes continue to arrive at Calumpit. They express great fear of 'the Tagalos and ask 'to be supplied with arms with which to fight them. Foreigners arriving from Aparri, at the northern extremity of the island of Luzon, report that the natives are con- centrating and preparing to resist the Americans. Colonel Arguelles, the Filipino emis- sary who came through the American lines last Friday with a proposal for a cessation of hostilities, again came through the lines at 10 o’clock yester- day morning and visited General Mac— Arthur. Colonel Arguelles 11 as accom- panied by a captain of the insurgent army. He was escorted to Manila by Major Mallory and taken to the palace, where he had a conference with Major General Otis. On the way to Manila Colonel Ar— guelles said that the Filipinos desired to enter into negotiations before sur- rendering. His conversation indicated that the natives were thoroughly tired of war. . Colonel Arguelles and his fellow com— missioner said that the Filipinos desired- the same form of government for the Philippines as existed in the South American republics. Colonel Arguelles said that since his last conference with General Otis he had consulted with Aguinaldo at San Isidro. Aguinaldo, he said, wishes to surrender, but persists in his request to have an opportunity to submit the question to the native congress. He further said that Aguinaldo had stated that he had used only one—third of his army againstothe Americans thus far. General Otis declined to agree to an armistice, and another consultation be- tween the American commander and the Filipino envoys will be held. Otis Cables Victory. WASHINGTON, May 3.——-The follow- ing cablegram, dated Manila, May 3, was received by the war department shortly before midnight: “General Lawton’s column, passing westward from Norzagaray, captured Balinag and villages in vicinity yester- day, scattering and pursuing 1,600 in- surgent troops. His only casualties two Wounded. Insurgent loss several killed, large number wounded and captured. Numbers not stated. Have opened com- munication with Lawton via Malolos by means of Hale’s troops and detach- ments from city. ” ' he following cablegram from Gen- eial Otis was also received at the war ' department at midnight: “List prisoneis in hands insurgents just received shows Lieutenant Gill- more and seven enlisted men of navy lost from Yorktown and six enlisted men of arnty, three of the six wrong— fully arrested in January before hos- tilities commenced, all reported to be doingwell. Beside the above two men ln hands insurgents south and Captain Rockefeller still-unaccounted for.” The president talked with official call- rrs before the cabinet meeting about the prospects of peace in the Philippines. It is believed that some advices from Gen- eral Otis have been received enlarging upon the propositions which were sub- mitted by the Filipino delegation which have not yet been made public and which give the officials additional in— formation concerning the situation. The president expressed the opinion that the end was in sight and said he believed that the Filipinos will not hold out much longer. He regards the conditions as most hopeful. The fact that negoti— ations for peace are in progress has stopped all talk of calling out the 35,000 additional volunteers. Manila Revenue Receipts.

An Excited Debate In the Chamber of Deputies. -ROME, May 3.—In the chamber of deputies yesterday there was another prolonged and animated discussion re- garding the government’s foreign poli- cy, growing out of various interpella- tions. The debate was again adjourn- ed until today, when the government will make a statement covering all the questions raised. In the course of the discussion Ad- miral Canevaro, minister for foreign af— fairs, created a lively sensation by pro- ducing, in response to the attacks upon his policy at San- Mun bay, China, an official letter signed by Count Bonin Longare, undersecretary of state for foreign affairs in the cabinet of Mar— quiSrdi Rudini, and addressed to the then minister of marine, Signor Brin, requesting the latter to initiate some action that would secure for Italy a sta— tion in China. The production of thé letter demonstrated that the leaders of the present opposition really initiated the policy they are now criticising. Admiral Canevaro’s action in making public a secret document evoked sharp comment from Marquis di Rudini, Si- gnor Crispi, former premier, and other leading members of the chamber. Finally General Pelloux, the premier, asked that the debate be adjourned, excitement. .
