A description of the battle in which
Out). Logan nns killed is given in tho
following advices from Manila:
The Thirty third infantry, in one of
the sharpest two-hour engagements of
tho war, with nil equal force of insiir
gents, five miles from Han Fabian,
Saturday, lost one officer mid six men
killed and one officer and twelve
wounded.
The Americans captured twenty-nine
Filipinos and 100 rifles and found
eighty one insurgent dead lying in the
trenches and lice fields. Many more
Filipinos doubtless were killed <>r
wound ed.
General AA’Iientou was iuformed that
the enemy was gathering at Han Ja¬
cinto for the purpose of preventing
the caravans Trotu controlling the road
from Dagnpsii north wherahy Aguin
aldo might retreat. The Thirty third,
Colonel Howe commanding, and a de¬
tachment of tho Thirteenth w ith a gat
ling gun, Hoohiml commanding, were
sent to disperse them. The troops
encountered the worst road ever found
in the island of Luzon. There wns a
succession of creeks, whose bridges
the Auiericaus had to stop and repair,
and miry ditches, and at certain
places men ami horses struggled waist
deep in quagmires. \ hundred sol¬
diers had to drag the gatiing gun part
of the way, the horses being useless.

Tho skirmish line, which was o mile
long, advanced rapidly, keeping up »
constant fire.
The Filipinos made an unexpectedly
good stand, many of them remaining
under cover until the Americans were
within twenty feet of them. Major
Marsh flanked a trench full of instir
gouts, surprising them and slaughter¬

about 160 Filipinos into tho hills

over a convent. The insurgents are
supposed to have retreated toward

BOOM IN PHOSPHATE LANDS.
Much l*rop#riy <'h*u|g*» llnnda In Colum
lila,
An interesting review of tho sale of
phosphate land in Columbia, Tonn.,
is given by Tbe Chattanooga News,
from its special correspondent.
l'he sales of phosphate lands within
tho 'ast two weeks have amounted to
about $125,000. One of the places
sold was the Orr farm, near Alt. Pleas¬
ant. There are about .'100 acres in the
tnrra, and it brought $76,000. It is
estimated that theresre not more than
100 acres containing phosphate rock,
of consequence, on the farm. The
price pan! for the rook proper, there¬
fore, was something like $750 an acre.
Tills will give the public some con¬
ception of the value now placed upon
phosphate lands in the district.

“Of all the curious articles of com
merce that you have ever menttonei in
print I have never seen one more
strange than a ‘line’ I regularly send
to China, to the Brazils, and la very
large quantities to Russia.”
The speaker was a "foreign mer¬
chant,” and he was addressing a con¬
tributor who had made a specialty of
paragraphs dealing with out-of-the
way occupations.
"The article I refer to are toothpicks
that are made from the walrus whis¬
kers. Vast quantities of the stiff, thick
whiskers of the walrus are shipped
from Alaska chiefly, to myself, and to
some others in England. Those who
send them pull them out one by one
with special tweezers, and after the
whiskers have been trimmed and stif¬
fened here they are made up into bun¬
dles and sent abroad.
“The higher class Chinese seem to
use no other kind of toothpicks, and
(he more wealthy of the Russians al¬
ways use them at their clubs and ho¬
tels. I send out some thousands of
bundles yearly, and though to the buy¬
er they are much dearer, as well as
more ornamental, they have plenty of
profit to the dealer. They have begun
to creep into strong favor at West End
clubs, and last year I executed some
scores of English orders.”

INDIQO INDUSTRY MENACED.
Cinoot Compete with Dyes Produced by
Modern Chemisiry.
The great Indigo Industry in Behur,
which gives employment to hundreds
of thousands of families in one of the
most populous districts in northern In
dia, is threatened with destruction,
Twenty-live millions of dollars or more
are Invested In it, and the situation
promises to assume the proportions of
a public calamity. The Behar plant
ters,*wlio own the lands and cultivate
mainly at their own risk, about twenty
live years ago formed an asoclation, in
ccmi rt with the government, which
established almost ideal relations be
tween the landowners, the cultivators,
and the factories, and ha3 enjoyed
ever since an uncommon share of peace j
and prosperity. Now It is threatened
with ruin because of the competition
of the cheap aniline dyes produced by
modern chemistry. For many years
the Behar indigo held its own by vir¬
tue of Its superiority in color and per¬
manence to the artificial product, but
it is now claimed that a true and pure
Indigo has been chemically produced.
As far back ns 1881 Prof. V. Bayer
showed how to build up indigo synthe¬
tically from its component parts. But
after years of costly experiment it was
not found possible to produce indigo
comercially by his method. In 1890,
however, Prof. Heumann of Zurich
carried tho research a step forward,
and finally, In 1897, artificial indigo
was bought upon the market at a price
capable of competing with the natural
article. The manufacture has now
been taken up by the largest color
works In the world, and the planters in
Behar find themselves powerless to
contend against an article at once
equal to and cheaper than their own,
and indepenedent of transportation.
