JIanila, March 21. It is reported,
on hitherto reliable authority, that
Aguinaldo is taking extreme measures
to suppress signs calculated to cause a
cessation of hostilities. Twelve ad
herents of the plan of independence,
residents of JIanila, have been con
demned to death because they were ad
vising surrender, and all loyal Fili
pinos have been called upon to perform
the national service of dispatching
them.
On Friday last, La Garda visited
Lagordas for the purpose of advising
Aguinaldo to quit. Ho argued with
the insurgent leader, and attempted to
convince him of tbe folly of his per
sistence in the face of overwhelming
odds. Aguinaldo was furious at the
advance and ordered General La Garda
to be executed immediately.
