DISPATCH FROM OTIS. WASHINGTON, Oct. S.-The follow ing is the dispatch of Oeneral Otis re celved yesterday relative to the visit of the Insurgent officers: Manila, Oct. 2, adjutant general Washington, D. C Three Insur gent officers were permitted to enter our lines at Angeles with 12 of our soldiers and two citlsens whom they wish to present as released prisoners, Yesterday, In a conference they en deavored to present a communication from the Insurgent government, which os declined. Then they presented a paner signed by 10 of the soldiers, In which the soldiers gave paroles. This was received and held In ab'yance. The insurgents then said that Agulnal do desired to end the war and rnil a civil commission for a conference, and they were Informed that It would not be received. They will be sent be yond the lines tomorrow. The whole affair Is believed to be ruse to obtain some acknowledgement bv the t'nited States authorities. The soldiers returned were stragglers from our lines captured by robbers. They were obliged to sign the paroles to secure their release, though two refus ed to sign. The whole affair Is of no significance; It Is viewed as an attempt at masquerading.
