nately were not filled on the 18th inst,
but the work was occupied by a de-

men of the Minnesota Regiment, rein
forced by volunteers from the Aston
Battery, led by Lieutenant March and
Captain Sawtelle of the brigade staff,
as an individual volunteer, reached a
point within less than eighty yards

Some Interesting Details
Relative to the Fight Which Took Place on
the Thirteenth Of August.
Part Taken in the Engagement by
the First Brigade, Second D1-

WASHINGTON, Oct. 1.-THE report
of Major General Macarthur, VINO
commanded the First Brigade, Second
Division, Eighth Army Corps, on the
day of the battle of Manila, mention OF
which was made in yesterdays dis
patches, give some very interesting de-
tails of the fight Of the 18th of Au-
gust Following are some of the ex-
tracts:
Several hours before the operations
of the day were intended to commence
there was considerable desultOry firing
from the Spanish line, both of cannon
and small arms, provoked no doubt by
Filipino soldiers, who insisted upon
maintaining a general fusillade all
along their line with the American line
connected just east of the Pissia road.
The fire was not returned by our
troops, and when the formation of the
day was commenced things at the
front were comparatively quiet. By
6 o'clock the position was occupied,
about 9:35 the naval attack COM
menced, and some twenty minutes
thereafter the guns of Battery B, Utah
Artillery opened on block house No.
II, the guns of the Astor Battery hav-

minutes after the opening of the naval
attack. There was no reply from the

COMPARE THE RECORD.

The farmer Of California must
receive the assistance Of the Gov
eminent if he is to prosper. What
has been the record Of the two
great political parties regarding
this question? The Republican
party has ever striven to foster
and encourage the horticultural
interests of California by means of
favorable tariff legislation; the
Democratic party has always en-
deavored to break down and sweep
away this protection. The Nc
Kin1ey tariff placed rate of z
cents a pound on prunes and plums
in order to protect the California
product against the ruinous COM
petition Of Southern Europe. The
Wilson tariff reduced this to an
ad valorem duty equivalent to less
than / cent a pound. The Dingley
tariff has restored the duty Of 2
cents. On figs the Mckinley rate
was 215 cents, the Wilson rate
equivalent to about l cent, and the
Dingley rate 2 cents. On raisins
the Mckinley rate was 21a cents,
the Wilson rate IL cents, and the
Dingley rate 215 cents. On oranges
the Mckinley rate was 10 cents a
cubic foot, the Wilson rate 8
cents, and the Ding1ey rate about
l2 cents. On almonds the Mo
Kinley rate was S cents, the Will
son rate cents, and the Ding1ey
rate 4 cents. On waInuts the Nc
Kin1ey and Dingley rates are 3
cents and the Wilson rate 2 cents.

blockhouSe or contiguous lines, either
by guns or small arms. The opposl-
ton to the Aston fire, however, was
quite energetic, but after spirited
contest the opposition, consisting prob
ably of two pieces, was silenced.
This contest was the only notable
feature of the first stage of the action,
and was especially creditable to the
organization engaged. The position
selected by Lieutenant March, after
careful reconnaissance, was, perhaps,
the only one possible in the vicinity,
and it was occupied with great skill
and held with commendable f1rmness,
the battery losing three men wounded,
one of whom has since died. The
Utah gun on the road fired fourteen
shots at blockhouse No. IA with good
effect, as was subsequently ascer-
tanned upon inspection of the work.
Lieutenant Grow and his detachment
deserve great credit for the commenda-
BILE manner in which the piece was
served, and pulled through the mud
without the assistance of horses.
Some time about IL o'clock concen-
trated infantry fire was heard in front
of the Second Brigade, and not long
thereafter an exultant shout indicated
substantial success for our arms on
the left 1t was therefore assumed
that the enemy had been so shaken as
to make the advance practicable with
out serious disadvantage to our
troops.
''At about 1870 o'clock a United
States flag was placed upon block
house IA, thus concluding the second
stage of the action without opposition
and without loss.
1.-The general advance was soon re-
sumed, the Thirteenth Minnesota lead

guard, then the Aston Battery, the bat
talon of the Twenty third Infantry, the
battalion of the Fourteenth Infantry
and the North Dakota Regiment fol-
lowing in the order named.
''At a point just south of Singa1ons
a. bIockhouSe was found burning, caus-
ing a continuous explosion of small
arms ammunition, which, together with
a scattered fire from the enemy, re-
tarded the advance for a time. AL
difficulties were soon overcome, how
