Our Loss About 1000.
A conservative estimate by armv
men-not officials that our casual
ties during Fridays fighting were
nearly If not quite 1000, about Is per
cent. of which were deaths. satur-
days casualties on the American side
were much lower because our troons
had been well entrenched the night be-
fore.

Dewey DisaDDointea.
London, July IA dispatch to the
Daily Telegraph from Manila. dated
Tuesday, June %, via Hong Kong. says:
The nonarrival of the American troops
has grievously disappointed Admiral
Dewey, but the Americans still count
on celebrating the Fourth of July in
Manila. 1t is reported Admiral Won
Diederichs sent two vessels away on
learning that America regarded his
attitude as unfriendly. A wholly Inn
proved feeling now exists. The Amer
lean officers express confidence in
their ability to dispose of any ships
Spain can now send, but in view of the
alleged strength of Admiral Camara's
squadron, the wish is expressed that
the Americans had at least one battle
ship.

with sweetness and freshness. Many
of the best Partisan flowers are scent
ed with it, as well as sachets, while
any number of bottles of the perfume
are selling in Paris every day. 1t is
better, perhaps. than some of the high.
~ scented perfumes.

The American soldier is as cool and
nervy as the American sailor. At

drove the Spanish soldiers out of their
camp and then calmly sat down and
ate the freshly cooked breakfast pre-
pared for their enemy.
