F G HTING AT MANILA
Insurgents Reported to Be Closing in on De-
fenses.
Admiral Dewey Said to Be Unwillinn
to Allow Them to Take
the City.

A copyright Associated Press special
from Manila, under date of May 81, says:
The Spanish outposts have been driven in
all along the line, simultaneously and with
great slaughter. 1t is said that over a
thousand have been killed. There has been
fierce hand-to-hand fighting for seventy
hours, despite the typhoon which is raging.
The violent winds and torrents of rain
render the rifles Of the Spanish troops I'M
availing The natives easily win at every
step with their slashing knives.
Today the insurgents hold Malabon, Tar
lac and Bacoor. They are now attacking
Santa Mesa and Violate, the suburbs of the
city, which is completely encircled for a
distance of seven miles.
The governor has issued q despairing
proclamation, begging the insurgents to
come to terms. and meanwhile he is ar
ranging to remove all the Spanish popu1a-
ton inside the old walled city. He is filling
the moats, testing the drawbridges and
placing strong guards in the principal
streets and artillery along the walls. All
the other troops are camping in the SUBJ
urbs. The weather is terrific.
Chief Aguinaldo, in the course of an in
tervfew, has said that the insurgents are
eager to rush upon Manila forthwith, but
that Admiral Dewey refuses to allow
"hordes of passionate semi-savages to
storm civilized metropolis"
Admiral Dewey intends to await the ar
rival of the American troops In the
meantime, the insurgents have been for
hidden to cross the Malote river seven
miles south of Manila; otherwise the Petrol
will be stationed there to lombard them.
