It is clear now that the period cov ered by the censorship of the cable was devoted to a general work of preparation to repel the attack from Aguinaldo felt to be, inevitable. Ad miral Dewey and Gen. Otis knew perfectly well from the pressure ex erted on 11 sides by the Filipinos, from their insolent manner and their defiance at Iloilo that a collision wa& certain to come. The Filipinos were told by their leaders that we were half-disposed to evacuate, and that One eevere blow would settle the matter.. Onr army and navy were made ready and the work carefully cut out. It was complicated and dif ficult. A large city must be held in subjection, and every weak point strengthened against a 'possible massed attack. Aguinaldo planned an uprising in the city, and it is said to have miscarried. It is far more accurate to remark that the disposi tion of troops in the city and of our ships in the bay prevented the battle in the streets that had been arranged. T4. 3r 1 A 1 - force in Manila that foiled the plot in the Filipino quarter. When the battle opened Dewey's flagship took position in the midst of the foreign vessels in the harbor. He believes in giving personal attention to the duties of neutrality under try ing circumstances. If Aguinaldo had any consulting assistants on a foreign ship in the bay they kept quiet. The fighting craft of lighter draught went to their appointed stations to aid in repelling the assaults. In every at tempted advance our troops carried the position they wanted, and held it. Our long and ratient forbearance at Manila is proved by the fact that armed Filipinos held the vater works, though the city was surren dered to the United States months ago. "We allowed them to remain up to the day of their attack rather than provoke a. quarrel. Here again they suspected timidity. Our army and navy at Manila deserve the warmest praise for admirable foresight aa well as splendid valor. The threat of a Havana paper that Cuban hostility to the bpanish resi dents of the island will make the Spaniards all annexationists undoubt edly means something. Independ ence would be likely to instigate as saults on the Spaniards by the natives which would repeat the feuds of the other Spanish-American states three quarters of a century ago. .This peril is sure to win the support of a large majority of the Spanish residents in Cuba to the annexation policy. Un questionably also ' the influence ot Spain will be used in favor of an nexation. Spain will haye no sway of annexation. Spain will have no sway over the native Cubans, but it will probably have some weight with the Spanish inhabitants of the island. Stability and progressivenesa in gov ernment will help the- Spaniards in Cuba as well as the rest of the resi dents, and these conditions, as Spain , presumably knows, are more likely to be secured under a government run by the Americans than under one managed by the Cubans. Stock-jobbers and trust-builders are sot in very good repute at pres ent, but the man who puts his trust in the American army and navy may begin to count his profits from the time the first gun is fired. We are informed that "Aguinaldo is one of the greatest Malays whose name appears on the page of history." It is not known whether this charac terization, takes Hoar, Hale, Billy Mason and the rest of the Filipino Junta in Washington into the com parison. These individuals deserve some sort of recognition from thbse persons who are reciting the deeds of the great Malays.
