Commodore George Dewey was aided in his conquest of the Philippines primarily by the support of the U.S. Navy, particularly the Asiatic Squadron, which played a crucial role in the naval Battle of Manila Bay in May 1898. Additionally, Filipino revolutionary leaders, such as Emilio Aguinaldo, provided vital ground support and intelligence, enabling Dewey's forces to capitalize on their naval victory and facilitate the eventual U.S. occupation of the islands.

they helped our country because they wanted to conquer Philippines
Technically yes, because England did conquer Philippines in 1762- 1764. But it was only for 2-3 years and they only conquered Manila. Hope this helped!
Philippines was not conquered by Britons anytime.
