The rebels, it appears, are concentrating in the neighborhood of Manila with the intention of attacking that place.' tf eat preparations are being made for the defence of the city." .Gen. Kios also asserts that the natives of the Visayas have again refused to 'permit the Americans to land, threatening to resist by force if an attempt is made to ao so. xne Americans, tnereiore, ac cording to Gen.

When inquiry was made relative to a report that there had been a meeting yesterday near Manila, of a commis sion selected jointly by Gen. Otis and Affumaldo. it was pointed out that un - der the large discretional authority con ferred upon him by the department and in conformity with the President's expressed instructions to exhaust all peaceful means of adjusting- the diffi culty with the insurgents. Gen. 0$is had full' authority to adopt such a course without asking express per mission from the department His course is thoroughly approved by the T- 'J A. - t - j 1 " 1 resident up w wis pome. . A rather interesting aiiestion is raised by the meeting of this commit tee, as to whether it does not consti tute a recognition of the insurgents, but the general opinion is that it does not, the matter being one of purely national concern with which no for eign nation has i the right to interfere. Meanwhile, the meeting of the com mission has served at least to avert the crisis which seemed impending in the fnmppines and there is now lair ground for the supposition that the status quo will be maintained, at least until the ratification of the pending peace treaty.

British Newspaper Comment London. Jan. 12. Most of the morning papers comment to-day upon the situation in the Philippines, draw ing the inference that Senator For aker's remarks, in the Senate chamber yesterday were made by him as the spokesman of the President and ex pressing disappointment and their disapproval of. a possible - relinquirh ment of the Philippines by the United States. The Times says: "Senator Foraker appears to leave the subject in an un pleasantly ambiguous state. . it is in the Philippines that the new system of government will be brought to a test &nd no resolutions passed in the Senate can solve the problem. To announce that ' the occupa tion of the Philippines is Only temporary would be scarcely prudent Although some precedents are fur nished in our own policy during: the last twenty years, the results are unsatisfactory. All the governments of the continent "have acquiesced, willingly or unwillingly, in the fact that the islands, with all their advan? tages and responsibilities, are an American acquisition and they are bound to hold aloof, except in the in conceivable event of the failure of the American government" .
