THE ADVANCED 0F LAl'i'lOll RETARDED
Filipinos Before Mar-Arthur Flee In
Disorder. Burning Apalit and sun
Yinentc—jinny Prisoners and
Much Arumuni'tion Captured.
MANILA. April 28.—Gcncral MacAr-
thur’s division crossed the Rio Grande
yesterday and advanced 011 Apalit. com-
pletely routing the flower of the rebel
army.
The enemy were very strongly in-
trenchcd on the river bank near both
sides of the railroad bridg General
VVheaton sent Colonel Funston across
with two companies of the Twentieth.
Kansas regiment, a couple of privates'
swimming the swift stream with a rope
under a galling fire for the purpose of
guiding the raft.
The men crossed in squads of 20 and
attacked the left flank of the rebels,
who scuttled like rabbits from covered
ways and trenches.
The iest of the regiment was com-
pelled to cross the bridge in single file
along the stringers. All the woodwork
and much of the iron work had been re-
moved.
The First Montana regiment followed
the Kansans across the bridge.
The First Nebraska regiment, acting
as a reserve, attacked the rebels in
three lines of trenches, driving them
out, killing 16 and wounding many.
In the meantime a large body of Fil—
ipinos, estimated at no fewer than 3,000,
led by General Antonio Luna on a
black charger. that was evidently com-
ins,r to rc—enfcrce the rebels who Were
engaged with the Nebraskans, appeared
in the open field about two miles to the
left.
Emerging from the jungle, the enemy
formed an open skirmish line nearly
two miles in length, with very thick rc-
serves behind. They then advanced at
double. quick until they were about 2,000
yards from the American line, when
General “'hcaton ordered his troops to
fire.
The rebels, who were evidently una-
ware that the Americans had crossed
the river. broke and ran in the direction
of Macabele.
Most of the rebels fled to Apalit sta-
tion, where two trains were awaiting
then. They left hurriedly, presumably
for San Fernando. ‘
The towns of San Vinente and Apalit
were simultaneously burned and evacu-
ated by the natives.
Twenty prisoners were captured, in-
cluding a Spaniaid.
The American tioops also captured a
brass cannon and a quantity of arms
and ammunition, and the same evening
they captured a Maxim gun on the rail~
road.
The fighting lasted from noon 1::1til 4
o’clock.
The American loss is one man of the
Montana regiment killed and three offi-
cers and six men wounded.
The heat in the early part of the aft»
ernoon was terrific. but a drenching
thunderstorm which came later greatly
refreshed the Americans.
General Lawton’s advance has been
a remarkable demonstration of the re-
sistless energy which characterizes all
his undertakings. The last troops form—
ing his column only reached Norzaga-
ray yesterday.
The men were badly played out, as
during the past two days they have
been dragging bullock carts over road-
lesis jungles and through swamps, cut-
ting their own way for miles.
They will rest three days, and then,
with Colonel Summers’ command, con-
sisting of the Oregon and Minnesota
zegiments the tioops 11111 resume the
march 11est11 ard. co- opeiating 11ith
General MacArthur’s forces in this im-
portant movement.
The ambulances, with a. strong escort,
are bringing General Lawton’s wounded
and a few of those who have been pros»
trated by the heat across the country
to the railroad.
A report has gained wide currency
among the volunteers that the govern—
ment intends to ask that there be no
fighting after Calumpit is captured and
that it is the intention to replace them
at. the front with regulars who we be-
ing brought here on transports.
The committee of Filipinos organized
to mediate between the Americans and
Aguinaldo fears to approach the rebels
after the refusal of the latter to receive
the Spanish commissioners who were
bearing a white flag.
The committee, after consulting with
the American commissioners, proposed
to tell Aguinaldo that while no terms
except unconditional surrender could be
offered after the lengths to which the
war had been carried, they could assure
the rebels that they would be treated
according to the American traditions of
leniency to tr e conquered and that
there would be no punishments or con-
fiscations of property if they laid down
their arms.
'The Calumplt Campaign.
WASHINGTON, April 28.—The war
department did not receive any infor-
mation yesterday from General Otis re-
specting developments in the campaign
about Calumpit. It is said now that
while it was part of the plan for Law-
ton, moving westward from Norzagaray,
to take the rebels in the rear of Calum-
pit and crush them between his own
orce and that of MacArthur, such was
not the only purpose of his expedition.
The principal object was to clear the
country back to the foothills of the nu-
merous small bodies of insurgents who
have been harassing the country and
making life miserable for the American
troops by forays at unexpected times
and places. It is believed that General
Lawton has fully succeeded in this and
that when he has effected a junction
with MacArthur north of Calumpit it
will be possible to establish a compara-
tively short line of works across coun.
try and prevent the return of the in-
surgents from the north. .
For Pun-American Exhibitor..'
WASHINGTON, April 28.——Secretars
Gage has issued a circular letter of in-
structions to customs officers carrying
into effect the act of March 3. 1899, to
encourage the holding of a pan-Ameri-
can exposition on the Niagara frontiei'
in 1901. The instructions as to the free
admission of goods, etc., intended for'
exhibition are substantially the same

Jhmhviln and other recent expositions.
THE CLOSING DAY.
New York Legislature Ends :1. Long
and Uneventful Session.
ALBANY, April 28,—The session 01
the legislature which closes today at
noon has been in many respects the
most remarkable in years. It is the lon-
gest session which has been held for
several administiations past, but de-
spite this fact the session is more re-
1na1‘kable for the lack of any important
radical or paitisan legislation than for
the enactment of radical changes in ex-
isting statutes or revision in established
principles of government. This is not
because such legislation has not been
proposed, but rather because of the
close political complexion of the senate
and the disposition there to ignore par-
ty lines and vote upon individual judg-
ment. Probably for the first time in the
history of the legislature have party
caucuses proved unavailing, and in the
closing weeks the effort was abandoned
and party legislation attempted‘ only
upon personal appeals and individual
canvass. It is a most astonishing fact
that not a single caucus of Republican
senators has been held during the ses-
sion when absolute unity could be main-
tained.
The most conspicuous, if not the most
important, actiof the assembly was the
constitution of the Mazet investigating
committee.
The influence of Governor Roosevelt
over legislation has been most pro»
nounced. He has carefully examined
each measure affecting public interest
as it was presented, endeavored by nu-
merous conferences with persons repre-
senting all views of the question to as-
certain the public desire and’ the fact
that all such public measures have
finally been amended before passage to
conform to the conclusions reached by
him'through these conferences evinces
the respect which the legislature enter-
tained for his judgment.
The two measures finally passed
which eclipse all others in the point of
universal interest are the civil service
bill and the rapid transit bill for New
York.
Medals For Vermont Volunteers.
BURLINGTON, Vt., April 28,—Dr.
\Yilliam Seward Wbe has presented
war medals to every member of the
First Vermont regiment of volunteers.
They will shortly be issued to the troops.
by the adjutant general of the state.
The medals are composed of metal
taken from Admiral Cervera’s flagship,
the Maria Teresa. The bar of the medal
has a deer’s head for crest with sprigs
of pine and bears the inscription, “First
Regiment Vermont Infantry, U. S. Vol—
unteers.” “In a blue circle on the medal
in gold letters are the words, “Spanish-
American War,” and in a white center
“1898.” The reverse of the medal bears
the coat of arms of the state of Ver-
mont, with the letter of the recipient’s
company beneath and this inscription,
“The Gift of W. S. Webb.”
W'ife Interccdes For Morrison.
ALBANY, April 28.—Mrs. Morrison,
wife 'of George Morrison, former county
treasurer of Rensselaer county,1 who is
serving a term in Clinton piison for
having embezzled public funds intrust-
ed to his care while holding that office;
called at the executive chamber yes-
terday and endeavored to make an ap—
pointment with Governor Roosevelt to
plead for a pardon for her husband.
The governor informed her’ that he
would make an appointment for some
day next week, but he considered any
interview unnecessary, for after hav-
ing examined into the merits of the
case he had come to the conclusion that
he could not grant a pardon.
