!■ inn A New Move Has Been Plann ed by the Navy and War Departments. GEN, FUNSTON'S OPINION All Supplies to be Cut Otl Front the Filipinos and a Virtual Block ade Established. Proposed Plan Likely to Cause Con siderable Sillieriny Among the Na tives Recognized that Most Severe Measures Must be Itesorted to tc Knd Philippines Trouble. Washington, Sopt. s.—The War De partment IS |>l'C|l.l.l|lg' 1.1 .1 V 1 "liaslK measures to stop supplies and muni tions of war from reaching the Fill pinos. •The Department has determined it to be necessary to cut off supplies frou; the natives, and a plan for a virtual blockade lias been agreed upon be tween the Navy and War Departments, which, it is believed, will be approved by tho President immediately on his return to Washington. Tills plan will undoubtedly involve suffering upon tho country, but it is felt that war can not s bo prosecuted with exemption from its penalties and that the more drastic measures which promise to terminate the war speedily will bo more merciful in the end than the indefinite protraction of hostilities. It is recognized that if the struggle is not to be prolonged indefinitely, the war must now be prosecuted with vigor and severity. Steps are being taken to prosecute the war with the utmost energy and to lay aside all sou tiinental consideration until peace has been established. This marks a radical change of pojjcy, and tliore is every hope in the Department that the rebel lion will be crushed out with an iron hand very speedily. It is impossible to terminate the war by any method which does not involve suffering upon the people of the Philip pines. The regard for non-combatants lias rendered it difficult to prevent supplies and munitions of war from reaching the enemy, it being practically impos sible to allow the entry of articles of commerce for the use of peaceable na tives. without beuetit to the Filipinos. Now these supplies are probably to be cut off. Must Whip Filipinos. .Manila, Sept s.—Gen. Frederick Funston and Mrs. Fitnston are with the General's regiment, the Twentieth Kansas. Gen. Funston lias undergone an op position necessitated by an injury re sulting from a fall from his horse while serving in the Cuban Army wifli Gen. Gomez. 11l an interview, (Jen. Funston re marked thot lie would not mind stay ing iu Lzuon. He dislikes war. but in asmueh as there is fighting, lie would like to remain and aid in britigiug it to a close. Speaking of the future, he said: "The only solution of the problem will lie through whipping the Filipinos. 1 do not think they will surrender. When we begin active operations against fhem on a large scale in the autumn we will scatter liioui into small bands, and I think when the soldiers composing these bands see that they are persistently pursued they will throw away or hide their arms and re turn to the pursuits of peace. "A year hence, small bodies of armed men will be able togo anywhere in Luzon. The island was always infest ed with bandits and was never safe for Kiiropeans to travel it. Probably after the cud of the lighting, the high waymen will lie more numerous, be cause the meiubt rs of Aguimildo's army, who have lived for years with guns iu their hands, have acquired a taste for bush life anil would either continue as highwaymen than return to work. "Cavalry is greatly needed here, 'l'he country, when dry. is superb for cav alry operations. The natives have none. One of their strong points is their ability to retreat rapidly. Caval ry could overtake and hopelessly scat ter and punish them, and could subsist largely on the country. When cavalry is once here it should have a chance to go ahead aud not lie kept in towns for guard duty. "Our greatest successes have been gained when regimental commanders have been allowed to follow up quick ly tile advantages gained in battle. Small bodies of Americans, operating freely and commanded by officers of dash and energy, could badly break up the enemy. The capture of Aguinaldo by cavalry would be a less difficult proposition than tin- capture of the Apache chiefs iu Arizona." Timber for South Africa. Kansas City.
