New York, Aug. "A copyrighted ca
blegram from Manila bay, via Hong Kong,
to the Evening World, gives the follow
ing particulars Of the fighting July 81:
General Greene's force. 1000 men, had
been advancing and entrenching. The
arrival of the third expedition filed the
Spaniards with rage. They determined to
give battle before Camp Dewey could be
reinforced. The trenches extended from
the beach 800 yards to the left flank of
the insurgents.
Sunday was an insurgent feast day and
their left flank withdrew, leaving the
American right flank exposed Companies
A aud Z Of the Tenth Pennsylvania and
the Utah battery were ordered to rein
force the right flank.
In the midst OF a raging typhoon, with
q tremendous pour of rain, the enemy's
force. estimated at 5000, attempted TO sur
prise the camp. Our piekets were driven
in and the trenches assaulted. The Penn
sylvania men stood their ground under a
whitening fire. The First California regi-
ment, with two companies Of the Third
artillery, were sent to reinforce the Penn
sylvanians
The enemy were on top Of the trenches
when these reinfrOeements arrived, and
never was the discipline of regulars better
demonstrated than by the work of the
Third artillery under Captain o'Hara-
Nothing could be seen but the flashes OF
Mauser rifles The men ran right up to
the attacking Spaniards and moved them
down with regularity.
The Utah battery, Captain Young, COW
cred itself with glory. The men pulled
their guns through mud ankle deep. Two
guns were sent around on the flank and
poured destructive enflading fire. The
enemy was repulsed and retreated in dis
order. Our infantry had exhausted its
ammunition and did not follow the enemy.

|IHE PEACE COMMISSIONERS
NO PEACE MEN 70 BE NAMED.
The President win select Men who
Favored Bringing On the War
Davis, Foraker and LedGe Are
spakea Of m Possible Members Of
the COmmiaaiOA.

Washington. Aug. 1.-THE naming Of
peace commissioners will be the most
important step yet to be taken by Pres
ident Mckinley. 1t is said at the White
house that he has number OF names UNI
der consideration. There have been many
names suggested, but the president Is
keeping his own counsel very closely re-
garding his selection. He may not have
decided upon the commissioner, but 1t u
said by members of the cabinet that he
has decided upon the character OF the
commission, and that II will be ON the
principle that advocates OF war should
make the terms Of peace. This principle
has always been followed in our peace
treaties, and President Mckinley viii not
abandon it at the suggestion OF those who
are talking about humanity, generous vic
tors, and fear OF future expansion Of ter
ritOry.
The three names most popular are
those Of Senators Davis, Foraker and
Lodge, though one Of them may have to
be dropped to give place to democrat.
II this is done, Senator Daniel OF Virginia
who is member of the foreign relations
committee, and one Of the most eonspie-
uous war men on that side Of the senate
chamber, may be chosen. Ii is, Of course,
not certain that the president will name
these senators. but il is said that Sena-
tors Davis and Foraker are almost certain
to be offered places ON the commission.
They are men Of conspicuous ability and
courage. There ia no question a. 10
where they stand on the question Of
peace, any more than there was n to
where they stood on the question Of go
ing TO war. The selection OF such men
would be a notice to Spain that there !.
to b. no surrender Of the Philippines.

Not an inch Of ground was lost. but The
scene In the trenches was one never to b
foryOttea.
On the night Of August / the fighting
was renewed. but the enemy had been
taught lesson. and made the attack at
long range with heavy artillery. The Utah
battery replied, and the artillery duel
lasted an hour Fred Springstead Of the
First Colorado was killed and Others were
wounded.
On the night Of August the artillery
duel was renewed. Two men were badly
wounded and more were reported dead,
which brings the total dead up TO 3, with
10 more in the hospital mortally hurt.

Philadelphia Man Who Went Broke

A Philadelphia man has lived ten
years in house for which he paid no
rent and no taxes. 1t belonged to the

ularly until the property OF the compa-
ny was transferred to the city. He says
himself: 81 don't remember how long
1t is since l stopped paying rent. 1t
was when the gas office was on 9TH
street. l went there one day with my
had charge of the gas company's real

told me that it was to be paid at the

he advised me to go home and wait un-

Nobody came to collect money until re-
gently, when the city discovered its
title and sent man to collect. The ten.
ant got day TO consider and promptly
skipped. But his experience with a
free rent does not seem to be satisfac-
tory If we may trust to his wife. Yes"
says she, resentfully, "he thought It
was n snap, and look where he is now
no money, no business, looking for a
lob, and family to support. He
wouldn't take my advice and move to
where business was good, but he
hugged his snap and stuck here in that
stagnant neighborhood and spent
money on repairs for the house and
didn't make any money."-Philadelphia

TElEPHONiNG AT SEA.
How Commanders ommunicnte by
Wire from Ship TO Shin.

wire from snip to snip,
Telephones may supersede the old
system of flag signals as means Of
communication between ships at sea.
Successful experiments have been
made by Commander X. G. o. Tupper
of the British navy which seem to
prove that the system is adapted for
the purpose. Commander Tupper used
kite in his experiments, and this
seems to be the only feasible means.
The kite used was an ordinary one that
differed but slightly from those used by
American boys in the spring and fall,
except that II had no tail. The kite was
six feet long and three wide ut its
broadest part. Two lines were at.
tached to the kite where the tail would
ordinarily have been. One of these
lines was retained on board of the Oar
ing. the torpedo boat destroyer under
Commander Tupper's command. from
whlci the experiments were conducted.
1t was found that with the wind be-
tween the two lines II was easy to drop
letters or even a hawser ON another
ship. and in this way to establish COM
munlcatlon. When this experiment had
proved successful Commander Tupper
made use of a wire. The end of the
wire which the kite bore away from the
shlp was dropped upon the deck Of II.

by the electrician of the ship and at
