INSURGENTS FIGHT IN THE JUNGLE.

The Country Between Mnrilao and
xManila a Picture of Desolation.
' Natives Flee From ’l‘heir
Homes In Terror.

MANILA, March 30.-——At daylight yes-
terday General MacArthur’s division
advanced from Marilao along the rail-
road to Bigaa, five miles distant, in the
following order: -;-

The Nebraska regiment, the South
Dakota regiment and the Pennsylvania
regiment on the right; the Kansas reg-
iment, the Third artillery and the Mon-
tana regiment on the left and General
Wheaton’s brigade in reserve. The
American forces met with strong oppo-
sition in the jungle. First one Nebras-
kan, then one Pennsylvanian and after-
ward two of the Montana regiment
were killed and 35 wounded, including
one officer of the Kansas regiment.

Thence the troops pushed on to Bigaa
without opposition, the rebels burning
the villages as they retreated in bad
order toward Malolos. The enemy also
tore up sections of the railroad in many
places and attempted to burn the bridge
at Bigaa, but the fire was extinguished.
Owing to the timely arrival of the
Americans the" rebels had not finished
their trenches along the line of the
day’s march, showing they were not
prepared for our advance. It is believ-
ed, however, that there will be a hard
fight before Malolos is taken.

The Minnesota regiment re-enforced
the division yesterday, marching from
the waterworks during the night to
Manila and going to the front by train.

The Filipinos fired volleys Tuesday
evening for the purpose of drawing the
American fire and disclosing the locality
of our positions. Two men of the Penn-
sylvania regiment and one man belong-
ing ‘to the Dakota. regiment were
wounded. The Americans remained si-
lent.

The country between Marilao and Ma--
nila presents a picture of desolation.‘
Smoke is curling from hundreds of ash
heaps, and the remains of tree's and
fences torn by shrapnel are to be seen
everywhere. The general appearance
of the country is as if it had been swept
by a cyclone. The roads are strewn
with furniture and clothing dropped in
flight by the Filipinos. The only people
remaining behind are a'few aged per-
sons, too infirm to escape.

They camp beside the ruins of their
former homes and beg passersby for
any kind of assistance. The majority
of them are living on the generosity of
our soldiers, who give them portions of
their rations. The dogs of the Filipinos
cower in the bushes, still terrified and
barking, while herds of pigs are to be
seen busily searching for food.

Bodies of dead Filipinos are stranded
in the shallows of the river or are rest-
ing in the jungle where the wounded
men crawled to.die or were left in the
wake of the hurriedly retreating army.

These bodies give forth a horrible
odor, but there is no time at present to
bury them.

The inhabitants who fled from Mari-
lao and Meycauayan left in such a panic
that on the tables our soldiers found
sg'wead money and valuables and in the
rooms were trunks containing other
property of value. This was the case in
most of the houses deserted.

 

 

Dewey Sail! Nothing of the Fight.

“WASHINGTON, March 30.—-The navy
department has had no confirmation of
the press dispatches reporting the shell-
ing of Malabon by the Monadnock on
Sunday and of Las Pinas to the south
of Manila on Tuesday. Neither has it
confirmation of the report of the firing
upon and killing of a sailor and the
wounding of three others on the Mo-
nadnock nor _of the landing-pf marines
at Malabon. Admiral Dewey cabled the
department yesterday about some rou-
tine matters relative to supplies for the
marines, saying he could secure every-
thing save cooking stoves, but he made
no mention of the matters reported in
the press dispatches. Neither did his
cables touch upon anything relative to
the fighting nor the situation at Manila
and the vicinity.

Sheridan Ten Days From Manila.
WASHINGTON, March 30.-——Some mis-
apprehension has been caused by re-
ports that General Otis was about to
secure 1,900 re-enforcements by the
transport Sheridan, thus giving him
timely aid on the firing line north of
Manila. Colonel Bird, who directs the
movements of vessels, says the Sheri-
dan is not due at Manila for ten days
or more. She sailed Feb. ‘28, and that
allows 40 days for her passage. She has
not reported from Singapore, which is
five days from Manila.
No More Recruits For Philippines.

SYRACUSE, March 30.—Major H. G.
Cavenaugh, in charge of the army re-
cruiting office in this city, has received
a dispatch from the adjutant general’s.
office at Washington ordering ‘him not
to enlist any more men for service in
the Philippines. All recruits will be
given their choice for service in Cuba or
Porto Rico. ' '

A Banner For the President.
WASHINGTON, March 30.—-Captaln

rived from Havana yesterday and pre-
sented to the president a large silk ban-
ner, the gift of Senor Perfecto Lacoste,
mayor of Havana. and the president of
the Junto Patriotico. The banner has a.
beautiful reproduction in oil of Ameri-
can and Cuban flags and in the center
a life size portrait of President McKin-
ley. With the banner was presented a
letter expressive of gratitude and good
will of the Cuban people to President
McKinley and the American people.

 

Tramp Thievestaught.

SYRACUSE, March 30.——Three tramps
arrested with various articles in their
possession are wanted in Utica, the
plunder having been identified by resi-
dents of that city. - Some of it was
stolen from the houSe of the assistant
chief of police of that city._ Utica offi-
cers are here to take the men back.

llcllllllgll SAMOA.

English and American Cruisers
Bombard Native Villages.

MATAAFA IGNORES AN ULllllllTUll.

Provisional Government Commenced
the Attack—Several Sailors “Jere
Iiilled—Bonihnrdnient Con-
tinued For Eight Days.

APIA, Samoan Islands, March 23, via.
Auckland, New Zealand, March 30.—
The troubles growing out of the elec-‘
tion of a. king of Samoa have taken a
more serious turn and resulted in a
bombardment of native villages along
the shore by the United States cruiser
Philadelphia, Admiral Kautz command-
ing, and the British cruisers Porpoise
and Royalist. The bombardment has
continued intermittently for eight days.
Several villages have been burned, and
there have been a number of casual-
ties among the American and British
sailors and marines. As yet it is im-
possible to estimate the number of na-
tives killed-or injured.

As Mataafa and his chiefs, consti-
tuting the provisional government, con-
tinued to defy the treaty after the air;
rival of the Philadelphia, Admiral
Kautz summoned the various consuls
and the senior naval officers to a con-
ference on board the Philadelphia,
when the whole situation was carefully
canvassed. The upshot was a. resolu-
tion to dismiss the provisional govern—
ment, and Admiral Kautz issued a
proclamation calling upon Mataafa and
his chiefs to return to their homes. .

Mataafa evacuated Mulinuu, the town
he had made his headquarters, and
went into the interior.

I—Ierr Rose, the German consul at
Apia, issued a proclamation supple-
menting the one he had issued 'several
weeks before upholding the provision-
al government. As a result of this the
Mataafans assembled in large force
and hemmed in the town.

The British cruiser Royalist brought
the Malietoa prisoners from the is-
lands to which they had ”been trans—
ferred by the provisional government.

The Americans then fortified Mu—
linuu, where 2,000 Malietoans took ref-
uge. The rebels, the adherents of Ma-
taafa, barricaded the roads within the
municipality and seized the British
houses.

An ultimatum Was then sent to them,
ordering them to evacuate and threat-

a bombardment, to commence at 1
o’clock on the afternoon of March 15.

This was ignored, and the rebels com-
menced an attack in the direction of
the United States and British consu-
lates about half an hour before the time
fixed for the bombardment. The Phila-
delphia, Porpoise and Royalist opened
fire upon the distant villages. There
was great difficulty in locating the en-
emy owing to the dense forest, but sev—
eral shore villages were soon in flames.

A defective shell from the Philadel-
phia exploded near the American con-
sulate, and the marines outside narrow-
ly escaped. A fragment struck the leg
of Private Budge, shattering it so badly
as to necessitate amputation. Another
fragment traversed the German consu-
late. smashing the crockery. The Ger-
mans then went on board the German
cruiser Falke.

During the night the rebels made a
hot attack on the town, killing three
British sailors. A British marine was
shot in the leg by a sentry of his own
party, another was shot in the feet,
while an American sentry was killed at
his post. The bombardment continuing,
the inhabitants of the town took refuge
on board the Royalist, greatly crowd—
ing the vessel. Many people are leaving
Samoa, the captain of the Royalist urg-
ing them to go, so as not to interfere
with the military operations.

The Porpoise has shelled the villages
’:‘.’St and west of Apia and captured
many boats. The Americans and Brit-
ish are fighting splendidly together, but
there is a. bitter feeling against the Ger—
man’s. Two men, a British and a Ger-
man subject, iave been arrested as
spies. The bombardment of the jungle
was for a time very hot. (I

There is more Catarrh in this section
of the country than all other diseases
put. together, and until the last. few
years was supposed to be incurable.
Fm- a great. many years doctors pro-
rounced it a local disease, and pre-
scribed local remedies, and by con-
stantly failing to cure with local treat-
ment, pronounced itincurable. Science
has proven catarl'h to be a constitu-
tional disease, and therefore requires
constitumonal treatment. Hall’s Ca-
larrh Cure, manufactured by F. J'.
Cheney & 00., Toledo, Ohio, is the only
constitutional cure on the market. It.
is taken internally in doses from 10
drops to a teaspooniul. It. acts direct-
ly on the blood and mucous surfaces of
the system- They' offer one hundred
dollars for any case it. fails to cure.
