Manilla, Oct 23 - An American officer was killed and two men wounded by the Filipinos in an attack on a launch with General Lawton's expedition in the Rio Chiquita, near San Isidre. The rebels fired volleys from the shore. General Otis has replied to the three insurgent officers who entered Angeles last Friday with a request made through General MacArthur for permission for a Filipino commission, headed by a Filipino major general, to visit General Otis in order to discuss peace terms and to arrange for the delivery of more American prisoners, that the desired interview cannot be granted, because the suggested propositions of the Filipinos are vague, indefinite and unmilitary and because the Americans must continue to decline to receive any report of the so-called Filipino government.
