WAR BEGINS

Filipinos Attack American
Lines and are Repulsed
With Heavy Loss.
SCORES OF OUR MEN FALL
Sixty United States Soldiers Killed
and Over a Hundred Wounded 1m aH
Engagement Precipitated by AgMfn
aldo'a Troops.
Manila, Feb. 6 Agninaldo’s forces
have begun war on the United States
troop* occupying this city and although
i. ' ' ly
BMILIO AGUINALDO.
unsuccessful in their first attack, being
repulsed with heavy lo ses, it is thought
they will pursue the same tactics em
ployed against the Spaniards and merely
lie off a few days to recuperate before
returning to the assault.
The first clash between Americans
and Filipinos came at 8:40 Saturday
evening, when three daring Filipinos
dashed past the Nebraska regiment’s
pickets at Santa Mesa, but retired when
challenged. They repeated the experi
ment without drawing the sentries’ fire.
But the third time Corporal Greely chal
lenged the Filipinos and then fired, kill
ing one of them and wounding another.
Almost immediately afterwards the
Filipinos’ line, from Caloochn to Santa
Mesa, commenced a fusillade, which
was ineffectual. The Nebraska, Mon
tana and North Dakota outposts replied
vigorously, and held their ground until
reinforcements arrived The Filipinos
in the meantime concentrated at three
Soiuts— Galoocau, Gagalangin and Santa
lesa.
Warm F r* Op'md.
At about 1 o’clock the Filipinos
opened a hot fire from all three places
simultaneously*. This was supple
mented by tne fire of two seige guns, at
Bahk-Balik, and by advancing their
skirmishers at Paco and Paudacon.
The Americans responded with a ter
rific fire, bnt owing to the darkness
they were unable to determine its ef
fect. The Utah light artillery finally
succeeded in silencing the native bat
tery. The Third artillery al.o did good
work on the extreme left. The engage
ment lasted over an hour.
The United States cruiser Charleston
and the gunboat Concord, stationed off
Malabona, opened fire from their sec
ondary batteries on tho Filipinos posi
tion at Caloocau and kept it up vigor
ously.
At 2:45 there was another fusillade
along the entire line, and the United
States seagoing doub'.eturreted monitor
Monadnock opened fire on the enemy
from off Malate.
With daylight the Americans ad
vanced. The California and Washing
ton regiments made a Bplendid charge
and drove the Filipinos from the vil
lages of Paco and Santa Mesa.
The Nebraska regiment also distin
guished itself, capturing several prison
ers and one Howitzer and a very strong
position at the reservoir, which is con
nected with the waterworks The Kan
sas and Dakota regiments compelled the
enemy’s right flank to retire to Caloo
can. There was intermittent firing at
various points all day long.
The losses of the Filipinos cannot be
estimated at present, but they are known
to be considerable.
The American losses are estimated at
54 killed and 125 wounded. The Ygo
rates, armed with bows and arrows,
made a very determined stand in the
face of a hot artillery fire and left many
dead on the field.
Americans In Control.
The Americans are now in complete
control of the situation within a radius
of 9 miles of Manila. Their lines, ex
tending to ilalabon on the north and to
Paranaquo on tke south, are fully 25
miles long. While a few detached
bodies of the enemy still offer desulti ry
opposition, the main body of the rebels
is in full retreat and utterly routed.
Of the hordes of troops origina'iy
drawn up in battle array, against the
Americans, fully one-third are already
incapacitated and the others are scat
tered in every direction.
The terrible loss of the rebels may be
gathered from the fact that 160 of tnein
were buried in one rice field on Mon
day near Pasas, and that 87 were in
terred between Paco and Santa *. na.
A converted river gunboat did terrible
execution among the rebels, sweeping
both banks of tne river with her
ling guns and her heavier baft
Hundreds of Filipinos andoubu
crawled into the ounebrakes sad t
there.

vors return north.
It is regarded as a significant faot
that many of the Filipino officials of
this oity disappeared from Manila as
soon as hostilities commenced. Some
of them are supposed to be still hiding
here.
Hundreds of women are pouring into
Manila from all districts, as the vil
lages around Manila have, as a rule,
been destroyed by the troops.
< *invi-yaiiet j s In Drmiiiid.
The further the Americans extend
their lines, the more the need of moans
of transportation increases. The Ameri
can commanders have already been com
pelled to impress horses and vehicles on
all sides to the inconvenience, natur
ally, of the civilians All the public
conveyances, at this writing, have been
either impressed or have disappeared m
some manner or other. Street car traf
fic, however, has been resumed and the
cars are running regularly, though the
streets are almost deserted.
There ate a few native stores open
and white flags, in the nature of towels,
pillow slips and aprons tied to bamboos
adorn the windows of the native reui
dences everywhere. But, in spite of
these emblems of peace, scores of Fili
pinos, under the cover of darkness,
fired from these same windows yester
day evening on the American patrols.
At 9 o’clock last night there was a gou
eral fusillade in the Quiapo and Bineu
districts.
The inhabitants of the city generally
believed that a battle was raging ar
their doors, lights were extinguished
inside the dwellings and a majority of
the people were in a state of terror.
Under the circumstances, it is remarka
ble that no casualties were reported.
Several shots were fired across the river
during the excitement.
General Hughes has the interior situ
ation absolutely in hand.
Attacked U tk r Truce.
A Filipino colonel came out this morn
ing from Calocan, under a flag of truce.
Several American officers promptly went
to meet him, but when the parties met,
the Filipinos opened fira The Filipino
apologized for the barbarous conduct of
his troops and returned to his lines
The American troops are being
promptly furnished with supplies of ah
kinds, hospital attendance is supplied up
to the firing line, and, in brief, all the
wants of our troops are met immedi
ately by the different military depart
ments whose duty it is to attend to such
matters.
Artificer Hayes of Company I of the
Colorado regiment, discovered tiie miss

the waterworks buried in a coal pile at
Siugalou station. The machinery will
soon be in working order again and the
employes having promised to return to
work this evening, it i* improbable that
the threater and water famine will oocur.
Another bhurp Kiiooiihter.
Late yesterday a'ternoon Brig. Gen
eral Hale’s brigade advanced and took
the waterworks at Singalon Four com
panies of the Nebraska regiment and a
part of the Utah battery, with two field
guus and two Hotchkiss guns, met the
enemy on th - ? hill, a half mile out, and
a sharp engagement took place in which
the Nebraskans lost one dead and three
wounded.
Dr. Young, formerly quartermaster’s
sergeant in the Third artillery, was
wounded, captured and brutally mur
dered. and his body when recovered was
found to have been horribly mutilated.
The Filipinos were driven back, retir
ing in bad order and carrying with them
the valves and heads of the steam chtst
and cylinder of the pumping machinery.
General Overshine’s brigade advanced
and took Parauaque, capturing two
field guns They met with no opposi
tion.
General McArthur’s division advanced
beyond Gagalangin without loss, the
enemy retreating upon Calocan.
The Americans now have the steamer
line to Malaboa, and GOO marines with
four maxims have been lauded at Fleet
Beach, north of the city. ,

Agoncillo D*pLores tho War.
London, Feb. B. —The Filipino junta*
here has received a eablegram from
Agoncillo, the agent of Aeuinaldo,
dated Montreal, Feb. 7, “deploring the
hostilities, which have had the effect of
securing the ratification of the peace
treafv.” Agoncillo also says he believes
the outbreak was provoked by the Amer
icans in order to insure the ratification
of the treaty and declares that the Fili
pinos, “far from being the aggressors,
were taken by surprise and were un
prepared. ”
