"As the man who introduced General Aguinaldo to the American
government through the consul at Singapore, I frankly state that the
conditions under which Aguinaldo promised to cooperate with Dewey
were independence under a protectorate. I am prepared to swear to

American nation by means of malevolent lying statements. If your

be a hopeless conflict with the inevitable results disastrous for
the Americans.
