"THE"PHILIPPINES QUESTION.

(Telegram published In Manila Frazdoṁ } LONDON, November 25th, The proposal to sell the Philippine Islands has created something of a sensation here.

Mr. Arganellia, the Filipino envry, who is now in this city, was Interviewed Isat evening by a reprezentative of the Associated Preis witë reference to the proposed desi and the position which would be taken in the matter by the Filipino Republic.

He stated that the Filipino Government would not allow themselves or their people, together with their homes and birth dight, to be bought and sold as merchandise. They would figght to the bitter end and shed every drop of their heart's blood, if necrusury, in defence of their sights.

"The upenker-did-not-think-his-government- would object to an Amèrican projectorate or even English protection, in fact, that was what kls people musily desired; but they where not cattle, to be sold by vas zaļion to moother with. out belog consulted in regard to the matter,

The Filipinos bad beaten thele Spanish op pressors at every polot, until they had the entire Spanish forces in the Island of Loson boxed up In the alty of Maulia. This was the condition when the American troops landed.

The Independence of the Philippine Islands was zurüred before the declaration of war ber tween the United States and Spale, and the speaker could not see how a ngilon, which had lo 1 its possessions through the fortunes of war a Spain bad done, could sell a thile to seme- thing not posiested by it,
