He warned the war may continue due to popular sympathy for insurgents and MacArthur’s report of united local support. John J.

Funston Known Aguinaldo Headed to Manila in 1899 Plan
General Funston then colonel of the Twentieth Kansas Regiment submitted his first plan to capture Aguinaldo to General MacArthur in February 1899 and was told the men could not be spared. Aguinaldo’s headquarters were at Caloocan with frequent trips to Manila before hostilities began. Soldiers familiar with him required passes signed by General Otis to enter or leave Caloocan. After Caloocan’s capture on February 10, insurgents retreated to Malabon and Funston urged MacArthur to cross the Caloocan bridge with a hundred men to seize the town and Aguinaldo.
