Waiiikoto, January 8 General
Oil, commanding at Maulla, baa cabled
the War Department that In hi opinion
General Miller baa the aituation well in
band at Hollo, and fully understand the
Dumoae of the Preaident not to crowd
the Inaurgenta unduly.
I la highly dealrable that ahoitilccol
llaion between the American forcci and
tha Inaurgenta be avoided at all hazard,
at leaat Dendlns the ratification of the
peace treaty. A General Miller under.
tend thl purpote en the part of the
Preaident, be will be guided by it, and
mar be relied upon to resort to force
only under compnlalon.
Official here are now fully satisfied
that tba troublea at Hollo may be traced
directly back to General Rioa, who waa
the unior Spanish army officer In the
Philippine group, and directly in com
mand of the Vlaayaa group, including
the principal Island of l'anay and the
olty aad garrtaon of Hollo.
General Otis' report ahow that though
bealeged with eight hundred solder in
Hollo by a superior force, the position
of tha Spanlacd was thoroughly tenable
They had repulsed every attack of the
Inaurgenta and had Inflicted great loas
upon the latter. , There was no reason
why tbey should not have held out In
definitely. Thl wa particularly the case
in view of tha knowledge on the part
of the Spaniard that by the term of
tha treaty the United State had under,
taken to carry them back to Spain, In
Tolving, of course, their release from the
lege at the earliest practicable moment.
It Is significant that Rio delayed the
evacuation of Hollo until be became in.
formed that the American were coming,
and there Is curiosity here to learn how
that Important . Information reached
Hollo In advance of tho movements of
the American transports. Undoubtedly
It was cauveyed by a vessel, and there
may be a question raised as to the legltl
macy of ttanamltting new of American
Intention In advance in tbi fashion.
These are dangerous times for the
health. Croup, colds and throat troubles
lead rapidly to Consumption. A bottle
of One Minute Cough Cure used at the
right time will preserve life, health and
a large amount of money. Pleasant to
take; children like It. F. S. Duffy.
