Incident.
Manila, Sept. 12.—To a correspondent
who was questioning him on Philip-
pine matters. General Aguinaldo said:
"We have been lighting for independ-
ence for a log time. The natives who
profess to favor annexation are insin-
cere. It Is merely a ruse to ascertain
American views."
Asked if the Phillpnos would object
to the retention of Manila, Aquinaldo
refused to answer.
"Would the Phillpnos object to the
Americans retaining a coaling station
If recognizing the independence of the
Islands or establishing a temporary
protectorate over them?"
Aquinaldo again refused to answer.
Pendin gthe conclusion of the assem-
bly, Aquinaldo said he was confident
there would be no trouble between the
Americans and the Philipinos.
DENIES A REPORT.
The insurgent leader denied receiving
a request from General Otis and Rear
Admiral Dewey to withdraw his troops
to a prescribed distance from Manila
and Cavite, and he declined to discuss
the effect of such a request."
Aquinaldo further asserted that he
had never confided with the American
Manila, and that he had never auth-
orized the insurgents to search or dis-
arm Americans crossing the line.
SATURDAY'S INCIDENT.
The correspondent closely questioned
when the Pennsylvania troops proceed-
ed to establish a new outpost. The
Philipinos objected and nearly precipi-
tated hostilities, allowing the Ameri-
cans to withdraw. They issued ammu-
nition and intercepted the American
reenforcements. Finally Gen. Hale or-
dered all the Pennslyvanians to ad-
vance and the rebels withdrew.
The local governor has explained that
the Incident was a complete mistake,
and has repudiated his subordinate's
action. Aquinaldo declared to this cor-
respondent that the Phlliplno who
made the trouble merely pretended to
be an officer and Is entirely uncnnected
with the insurgent army. Aquinaldo
complained that the Spaniards were
"disseminating" false reports for the
purpose of formentlng Antagonism be-
tween the Philipinos and the Ameri-
cans.
WHAT HE WANTS.
The whole interview conveyed the
impression that Aquinaldo desires ab-
solute independence, regards the mis-
sion here of the Americans accomplish-
ed and expects their withdrawal, just
as the French with Lafayette withdrew
after helping the Americans in the war
of independence, a war of humanity.

Portland Me., Sept. 12.—The state
election today resulted In the success
of the full republican ticket as follows:
Governor- LLEWELLYN POWERS,
of Iloulton.
Congressmen, First district—1THOM-
AS B. REED, of Portland.
Second district—NELSON DINGLET
of Lewisbon.
Third district—EDWIN C. BUR-
LEIGH, of Augusta.
Fourth district— CHAJtLES A.
BOUTELLE, of Bangor.
MARKED APATHY.
The election was marked apathy ot
the part of the republicans, while tfhe
democrats, perhaps. biking a lltth
more interest, with an apparant desire
to mnke a better showing than In 1894
of 1896, put some vim Into the campaign
the result of which was seen in nearly
every town.
The falling off of the republican vote
was however, anticipated by the party
manugi r .jr and while it was some-
what lower than they anticipated, It
gave them no anxiety and the loyal
men of the party really expected It.
While the democratic vote kept up
well with most of the offices, It must
be remembered tlhat the vote was a fall
Ing ofT of the previous off years.
CONGRESSMEN REPUBLICANS.
The state elected solid republican de-
legation to congress. The four con.
gressmen, all of whom have attained
national reputation, had a little or nc
opposition, although strangely enougi
Speaker Reed had a vigorous opponent
in his district. Bis margin over Me*
Kinney, who ran on the democratic
ticket was, however, about that of 1894
and showed the usual loyalty on the
part of his constituents.
Mr. Dingley, whose majority exceeds
• .WO. did not make a speech during the
campaign, confining his efforts to con-
ferences. The other two congressmen,
Boutelle and Burleigh, did even less,
so that it may be said that there never
was a campaign In the £tate where
there was so little said of national is-
■lit
London, Sept, 13—The correspon-
dent o the Times at Candia, who has
Just landed after live days in the road-
j stead, says;
About six hundred men, women and
children were either burned alive or
massacred In the outbreak last week.
The Turkish troops are now patrolling

sulmans are ransacking the ruins of the
burned quarters of the town where the
devastation is complete. Blood is visi-

slain as were not burned were removed
