Meanwhile there are no rikishas plying for hire. The police patrols are still out to cope with any trouble that may arise; and necessity for this action is emphasized by the disturbance that took place yesterday in Sage Street. The matter has been the subject of investigation at the Police Court to-day, and the proceedings will be found reported below.

About 3 p.ni. yesterday H. C.&.

A day or two previous they had arranged to be present at a big convention which the Civil Governor of Leyte intended to '. call at Tacoban for the purpose of conferring with the Presidente of Leyte relative to affairs in that island, but now this convention, at least so far as the Presidentes of Biliran are con- cerned, will have to be indemnitely postponed, unless it is held in the guard house at Carigata, Leyte, where all these presidentes are at pre- sent confined.

This commissary officer has been the most. active of the insurgent agents on Biliran island,

as well as being the most effective in the work of providing Lukhan's forces with necessary supplies. It is believed that his arrest will seriously cripple the insurrecto general, as in a large measure it cuts off his revenue and stops the smuggling of rice from Biliran, which island furnished the largest supply of this indispensable sinew of war.

Francisco de Jesus was a confidential go-between with ceived his appointment directly from Aguinaldo Lukbau and Aguinaldo two years ago, and re-
