STORY Of THE HAZZARDS
WASHINGTON MES "WHO HELPED
CAPTURE AGUIXAMH).
3fanila. Went "Wild With Enthusiasm
Over Achievement, "Wnicn.
Was a Surprise.
CHEHALIS, "Wash., May 24. Members
nt the iFixsV Washington Regiment, -who
saw .service la the Philippines, -will be,
muchjlnteresied In therpersonal accounts
of Captain Hussell "T. Hazzard and lieu
tenant O. P. -M. Hazzard, of their experi
ence in the capture of Agnlnaldo. In com
pany with General Fnnston. Their let
ters have Just been received here. Cap
tain Hazzard and his brother, .Lieutenant
Morton Hazzard, were two of the Ave
white men with the expedition. Captain
Hazzard, -was In command of the Maca
fcebe troops. He .fiays ln substance:
''The Macahebe command was organized
January 25, of new men. Those selected
for the trip belonged to Company D, of
the First battalion of Macabebe scouts,
and when they assisted in the capture of
Agulnaldo had seen service in the United
States cause less than two months. Seventy-eight
out of 020 presented were se
lected. My First Sergeant was a man
who had done Spain .good service as a
warrior, and was a recognized leader
among the Macahebes. Their hatred of
the Tagalos is notorious. A large num
ber pf the company wererelated to the
Sergeant. The latter "wa enthusiastic
over the plan to entrap Ajjulnaldo, and
the men fell1 In with .him -a$ once. The
natives seemed to catch on easily to the
details of the arrangement to treat the
white men as prisoners and the scheme
worked out like clockwork. Many hard
ships were encountered on the trip, but
the Macabebes never complained."
Speaking of Agulnaldo, Captain Haz
zard says he did not struggle when he
saw he was cornered, but took his cap
ture calmly. His house Is described as
being very plain. Agulnaldo said he had
never been personally present at n. single
battle since the war began, but that on
a. great many occasions had reviewed the
troops before battles and then retired, as
he was not a military leader. He admit
ted that he ordered Iuna shot, as the lat
ter was organizing an opposition party to
him.
Lieutenant Hazzard writes as follows:
"Little did we realize as we trudged
along the trail to Palanan, tired and
hungry, and almost fighting desperately
with pne another over some unfortunate
snail, and even after we had Agulnaldo,
nvhat a furore the news would create.
Jeneral officers and old gray-haired Colo
jiejs and Majors, staid and dignified
though they generally are, went wild.
"Within one hour of our arrival Manila
was like a madhouse.
"Men closed their offices and sought
'the clubs and hotel lobbies, where the
exciting story was being told. A week
lias passed, and even yet the excitement
has not noticeably subsided. Newspaper
men offer fabulous prices for our story;
Army people buy champagne and give
banquets to hear It. Letters and tele
grams from the islands and the States
pour In night -and day, and even now my
faithful muchato stands guard over my
room and tells every one that his 'tenl
nte" is not at home, in order that I
can get time to write. AH the principal
leaders are surrendering since Aguinaldo's
capture, and the end seems to be in
Tsight. 'So when I leave the islands on
my visit home I can proudly say that I
witnessed the hcglnnlng and stayed to'
the end."
