They poured volley af ter volley wherever the Spanish rifles flashed, and again the enemy retreat ed. They tried a third attack, but it was very techie, and some of the A mericans pursued their retreat, doing much execution. The losses Sustained. The loss was more than ordinarily disproportionate, though the exact Spanish figures cannot be Obtained. The British admiral says the general estimate in Manila is that between 300 and 400 Spaniards were killed and nearly 1.000 wounded.

At Long Pange. •Hut at 3:GO a. m„ the battle was re sumed at long range, the Spanish sharp shooters firing from the trees, and the batteries firing constantly, using brass coaled bullets. The Americans, soaked and powcletr-stained, stuck to their guns for fourteen hours without relief. No lights were there, or none could be shown, and the accommoda tions were entirely inadequate.

Though it was their feast day. lit is believed they acted in concert with the Spaniards. Practically not a i Flllipino fought during all the engage ment. Ignoring Them. So orders have been issued that the American troops shall have absolute ly no communication with the natives. Aguinaldo estimated the Spanish loss at only 100 killed. His attitude remains unsatisfactory. Manila is stunned by the splendid fighting of the Americans in the battle of the 31st. The Spanish soldiers and residents actually expected a grand vlc j torv. driving the enemy into the sea. | They had been reading lying reports of 'the condition and unmber of the A mericans. The Spanish loss is very heavy, including many officers. The Spaniards planned to turn the Ameri can right flank, making a joint attack on the front and right.
