Show INSURGENTS TAKE OATH. Filipinos Swear Allegiance and Are let Go. Manila, June 27. Nine of the insurgent leaders, including Generals Pio Del Pilar, Concepcion, Garcia and Alvarez, were released re-leased here today upon taking the oath of allegiance to the government and renouncing re-nouncing all forms of revolution in the Philippines, together with making formal j acknowledgment of American sover- ' eignty. This oath is much stronger and more binding than the oath which General Otis administered and was consequently distasteful dis-tasteful to the Filipinos, who accepted it with bad grace, fully realizing the results of any violation. Senor Eeuncamino took the oath Monday. Mon-day. It is hoped that the soaring of the nine leaders will influence their men to take advantage of the amnesty, which has thus far J:een without results other than those of today. |
