Otis, U. S. Volunteers, on Military Operations and Civil Affairs in the Philippine Islands, 1899 Sib: I have received instructions from the maxim-general Com manding the Army to submit an annual report of the military opera tions of the troops of this command, also from the War Department to furnish a report of the afl'airs of this military government. The matters connected with each of these subjects are so closely related as to make the rendition of separate and independent reports very dith cult without producing in each much which the other must contain. I have, therefore, concluded to embrace in a single narration with comment, as necessary explanation may appear to me to demand. The conditions which have presenwd themselves, both military, civil, or political, and the means which have been adopted to meet them. In doing this only the general features of the more important events can be touched upon, asan attempt to detail causes, effects, and the action which has been applied by the military authorities would involve a very extended recounting of facts and a lengthy discussion of theories.
