stive visited Em I Ho Aguinaldo yester-l
day afternoon at r5 Solano street,
whither he was removed from tin
Malacannn, and found him In a large
room upstairs, furnished With a table,
a typewriting machine, three settees
and 20 chairs, His wife, who was en
tertaining a number of Filipino W0
nii n friends, sat at one end of the I
room, while Aguinaldo. smoking a
cigar ami chatting with Benito Le
garo, occupied the opposite corner.
Aguinaldo. whose bearing was cour- I
teous and dignified, was dressed in
white, looked well and altogether made
an excellent impression. Legardo, who
but recently returned from the United
States, was telling him about the trip,
and he seemed intensely interested,
smiling frequently and asking numer
ous questions, lie ituiuired particu
larly as to what President McKinle)
said and seemed anxious to know what
was thought of h::u In tho United
States.
H' was tather reluctant to talk for
publication, and considered every
question before answering. He Bald
he was doing all be could to assist in
the pacification of the Philippines and
expn ssed himself as surprised at what
(he Americans had accomplished.
When he was first captured, he went
on to say, be was greatly astonished to
find thai i majority of the Filipinos
entertained the opinion that American
. V relgnty was preferable to inde
t denei . but now he was Inclined to
l , eve that way himself.
e explained thai since the dissolu
tion of the insurgent congress and the
declaration of guerrilla warfare the
chiefs had operated to all intents and
purposes independent' recog
nized him ascommam end
ing him reports occ: d he
issued some orders. last
seven months COmmtll been
difficult, and he had . dis
connected.
He expressed the opinion that Tlnlo,
Luoban, Malvar and other representa
tive Insurgents will surrender as soon
as they come to understand the na
ture i if the amnesty offered them. He
said h" hoped that when the work of
pacification was complete and condi
tions were settled the prisoners in
Guam would be released.
After referring in grateftil terms to
the courteous treatment accorded him
by the milll iry authorities, he declared
his conviction that the civil govern
ment which would follow pacification
would realise the highest hopes of the
Filipino people.
When qttestloned regarding the re
porl that hi would visit the United
States he replied that ho would like
to do so. but had mole no plans as
yet, placing himself entirely at the dis
position of the t'nited States govern
ment. In concluding the interview hf
obscrvi A:
"Every word of my address to mj
countrymen, the Filipinos, came fron
: y heart. I hope the Americans be
ie me thoroughly sincere in my c
fi to secure peace and. under Amerl
e ! auspices, to promote the wi Ifart
and prosperity of the Philippines."
