I Annual Report of Gen. Chaffee Made to the Government. IMPROVEMENT IS GRADUAL. Satire Are Accused of Inhuman Methods in Treatment of Prisoners Heien of Terror in Southern Luzon More Bubonic Plague Expected. Washington dispatch: In his official report of the conditions of the past year in the Philippines, Major General Chaffee, military governor, expresses his gratification at the advancement made. His annual report has just been received at the war department. "If nothing more has been done by the military in tne past three years," he says, "it has laid an excellent foundation and a turbulent and hostile community has been brought to observe laws and to be individually orderly. The world will watch with keen interest the evolution of an American city from the Malay and Mongolian elements which now almost exclusively compose the population." While General Chaffee reports that peace reigns in northern Luzon, the insurrections in the south and the reign of terror the brigands have iuaugura- ; ted among the natives in many com- j inanities will for years to come, he be- j lieves. be a most difficult problem to successfully solve. He recommends thru no further material reduction of j troops be made before January 1, lf'Oo. I In this connection he says: "The j return of troops would be greatly in j the interests of the army and economy, j but neither is of such vital importance, ! temporarily at least, ns military con- j templation oi events and martial sup- J port of the civil governments during j the period of time neces:ry for com- i ploto organization and for a further I period during their trial; also for fa- j milmrization of the people with the J new order of th:r..g.-. I he inhuman methods of tbe natives are touched upon in reports from the held. The insu! gents bind strong men with their hands behind them. then, before the victims are buried alive in graves dug before their eyes, or drowned in deep water, they are taunted and beaten with clubs. The native prisoners deported to Guam have no cause for complaint, judging from the report. They Hie Fo Mill ffd ap.'.l cared for tint they gleefully declare that tney have never ! been so well provide, 1 for. An epidemic of bubonic plague throughout Luzon is expected the ensuing' year. Last year there were 432 cases una 372 deaths In Manila. It is estimated that in the coming year there will be at least i,0"0 cases. Tuberci: !.:. is prevalent, in Manila.
