Many Filipinos Reiurn to Peaceful fahnits But the War is Far from' Ended -Re i nf o wemefits Needed sf or onr Troops Soldiers v liwd Out MANILA, April 7. Via Honfi Kong, Aprii. 10. Although hundreds of Fili pino are dally rtturamg to their teime desirous of reeamiog their peaceful par alts and though, the President's procla mation has given an impetus to thl movwneot. yet the war is far from end ed. One of the foremost Amerlean gen eral said recently that there will be a hundred thousand soldiers in the Philip pines before the Azmrriatoa control the islands. The majority of the army are of his opinjsa. It s generally oonsidered that great reinforcements are necessary, sine there Is at now sufficient troops in the archipelago to make a conquest f the island of Luzon and at the same time held the ports already occupied. ' The majority of the UntCed States vol unteers are eager to return home, many of than saying that they did not enlist to fight niggers. The Spanish system of defending Manila, by a lane of block hoaata may be adopted during tibe rainy season, as it requires fewer men than trench defenses . and aJeo lessees the chances for sickness.
