"There is not tho least provocation for a revolution in the islands," said Mr. Queson. "and the Filipinos today would defend the Tutted States if American troops were removed. As if the news of the European war were not sensational enough, recent cables from Manila have put to a severe test the nerves of the people in this and my country.
