1st. All those who have any public or private communication with the enemy and serve them as guides;
2nd. All those who attack and rob in a band;
5th. All those who receive any position or employment in the service of the enemy.
This race hatred is illustrated very clearly in the definition of the Katipunan given by Romualdo Teodoro de J., when he said that its aim was to kill all Spaniards and take possession of the islands. No particular hatred was shown to any class; it was all Spaniards of all classes and conditions who were to be assassinated. It is also clearly depicted in the Act of Session of the Katipunan Sur already quoted (See page 81; also foot-note page 80).
Note 76. What Sr. Diaz intends by Tagalog Katipunan is not quite clear. The whole society was practically confined to the Tagalog provinces and was insignificant in extent even beyond the city of Manila and its suburbs. There was no other Katipunan.
In November 1895 the assembly of the Katipunan was composed of ten individuals of the Supreme Council, and the presidents of the popular sections who were entitled to assist in virtue of holding some office therein.
In January of the following year of 1896, after the annual election, the assembly was composed as follows:
President Andrés Bonifacio. Secretary Emilio Jacinto. / Vicente Molina. Treasurer + Pantaleón Torres. \ Hermenegildo Reyes. / Francisco Carreón. | José Trinidad. Councillors + Balbino Florentino. \ Aguedo del Rosario. Fiscal Pio Valenzuela.
Note 77. The question of the amount and the source of the supply of arms possessed by the Katipunan has always been one of dispute. Some suppose the rebels to have been well armed, whilst others reckon the number of serviceable guns to have been very small.
Among the papers and documents belonging to the Katipunan Sur, seized by the Spanish authorities, is the following:
D. Gabino \ D. Juan + Tantoko D. Antonio | D. Ezequiel / D. Epifanio Ramos. D. Victoriano Luis for the distinct armories of Manila."
In a letter of the Secretary to the President D. Agustin Tantoko (a native priest; see page 79):
"I believe we can obtain the dynamite by bribing some of the harbor employees."
This letter has a foot-note which says: "When you have read this, destroy it."
