Aguinaldo's march at the Quiapo church festival on New Year's Day. Pedro contended that be did not know the march had been forbidden, and that on several orcasions he had been asked to play it by American officers, once no later than Christmas, when the order came from a colonel to play the Star Spangled Banner, the Spanish National anthem and Aguinaldo's match. The bench decided that a lesson was necessary and fined the maestro $100 and gave hin 30 days in jail The rest of the band, numbering about thirty, were also given thirty days.
