they will pursue the same tactics cm
ployed against the Spaniards and merely
lie off a few days to recuperate before
returning to the assault.
The first clash between Americans
Rttd Filipinos came at 8:10 Saturday
evening, when three daring Filipinos
dashed past the Nebraska regiment’s
pickets nt Santa Mesa, but retired when
challenged. They repeated the experi¬ tire
ment without- drawing tae sentries’
Lut tl-.e third time Corporal Greeiy chal¬
lenged the Filipinos ami (lieu fired, kill
iug one of them and wounding another.
Almost immediately afterwards the
Filipinos’ lino, from 6 alooe.au to Santa
Mesa, commenced a lusillade, which
was ineffectual. The Nebraska, Mon¬
tana and North Dakota outposts replied until
vigorously, and held tiioir ground
reinforcements arrived. Tho Filipinos
in the meantime concentrated at throe
points—Galoocan, Gagalangiii and Santa
Mesa.
At about 1 o’clock the Filipinos
opened a hot lire from all three plat es
simultaneously. This was supple¬
mented by the fire of two seige guns, at
Balik-Balik, and by advancing their
skirmishers at Paco aud Pandacon.
The Americans responded with darkness a ter¬
rific tire, bnt owing to the
they were unable to determine its ef¬
fect. The Utah light artillery finally
succeeded in silencing tlie native bat
tery. The Third artillery ai-o did good
work cn the extreme left. The engage
morn lasted over au hour.
llig Monitor Opens Fire.
The United States cruiser Charleston
end the gunboat Concord, stationed off
Malabona, opened lire from their sec¬
ondary batteries on tlie F’liipmos posi¬
tion at Caloocan and kept it up vigor¬
ously. another fusillade
At 2:45 there was
affiaig tflo entire line, and tho United
States seagoing dopbleturreted monitor
Monadnock opened lire on the enemy
from off Malate.
With daylight tho Americans ad
yanced. 'The California and Washing
ton regiments made a splendid charge
au ,i drove the Filipinos from tho vil
jages of Paco and Santa Mesa,
The Nebraska regiment also distin
gmsbed itself, capturing several prison
e rs and one Howitzer and a very strong
poffition at the reservoir, which is cou
uected with the waterworks. Tho Kan
sas aud Dakota regiments compelled the
enemy’s right flank to retire to Caloo
can. There was intermittent firing at
j 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
20 killed and 125 wounded. The Ygo
] rates, made armed determined with bows stand and arrow's, in the

fighting began suddenly and unexpect¬

goaded to coino into it by somo act of
the Americans. For some months they
have been doing their best to drive the
Filipinos into revolt. General Ohs has
sent moil to search private residences
and tho property of our people lias bean
turned inside out iu the search insti¬

have kept the spirit of the Filipinos at
fever heat and made such affairs as
that of Saturday and Sunday possible.”
“A Washington dispatch states that
you left that city because you knew
that, there would he lighting at Manila

Agoucillo smiled broadly. “Oh, no,”
he answered, “as I told you, 1 only

little importance attaches to his proa
Mice in Canada, much lea* so, in fact,
than to the informasnm bureau eatab
lished there last summer by the ex
^punish minister, Senor l’olov Bernabe.
The situation now is very different from
the eurlv days of the Spanish war
1 he distance of Manila from Wash
ington is so great that comparatively
lmle control "ill ho exoroisod by the
Washington authorities over the tho check- actual
military and naval moves on
erbi-ard of war and what hifoniiati.-n
Aguncillo might furnish to his friends
in the Philippines would La of little aid
to them. The pi ssibflily of his en*
gmeering any filibustering expeditions
trom British territory is regarded as ex
tretuoly remote.
The war department has made no
rnove toward further reinforcements for
General Otis. It was pointed out that
two ships will start soon from San
Francisco, one is on the way (turn New
York and it is assorted that the depart
meat feel* no doubt of tho ability of
General Otis to handle the situation
without further assistance. It wassail,
however, that the shipment of regulars
to the Philippines will continue with as
much promptness as possible the in islands order
that tho volunteers now in
may bo relieved and sent home. Ii may
be regarded as significant that the tie
pun incut at this time should declare its
intentions of continuing to withdraw
tho volunteers as fast as they can bo
s]xu ts.l from active duty.
Miss Clara llarton, the head of tho
American Hod Gross society, was at tho
war department this morning, but it
was said that her visit had no connec¬
tion with the situation iu tho Philip
pines and related wholly to tho continu¬
ation of the Red Cross relief work i.»
