LIKES THE PHILIPPINES
Mr.. Case Will Remain as a
Civilian.
A SLAUGHTER OF NATIVES
Three Carloads OF Dead Filipinos Buried
In Bone Yard Montana Boys
Are Fighters-Bitter Against
Aguinaldo.

Missoula, July 26.--That at least one
member of the 1st Montana regiment
thinks well of the Philippines is shown
by the following letter, written to
George P. Martin, formerly Of this
city. by r. R. Case, who enlisted from
Missoula in Company H, with WI ich he
has served all through the Manila
campaign. The letter ann ounces the
fact that Mr. Case will remain N tie
islands as a civilian after the tssi-
ment ends it's service, and is as fell
lows:
Our regiment had done some fight
ing before we moved on ,Calumpit.
That place and San Fernando we're
supposed to be able to resist an; army
that might be sent against them. I
heard an English officer say that If
our division had been in the enemy's
trenches, All the niggers in hell .t,,id
not drive us out / told him that he
might modify that statement ~ stat
ing that all the niggers' this side of
the hot place could not rCut The 81 n
tana regiment. The enemy's ca, TIL
works were eight feet thick, lined with
steel rails from the railroad. There
were rails over the trenches, which
were covered with curved steel We
killed q by shooting into the port
holes
AT Calumpit and Rio Grande Pam
panga there was awful slaughter. The
natives threw 80 dead bodies into the
river and our forces buried 210 bodies
that were left behind. We brought
three carloads (315) to this place and
buried them in the bone yard here.
They had over 500 wounded. This will
give you an idea of how we do things.
Those engaged in this affair We're the
Kansas, Montana. Nebraska and South
Dakota regiments and the Utah artil-
lery. Our loss was II killed and
wounded.
Since taking this city. which, by the
way. is the second largest on the ISL
and. and is very pretty. showing evil
dence of much wealth, we have had
several skirmishes with the outposts,
but now, thank God. all is quiet.
A few days ago a delegation of the
natives came into our lines under a flag
of truce and represented that 500 men
wanted to return to their homes. All
were allowed to come in and now we
are issuing rations of rice that for
merly belonged to the wealthy people
of the city. There are many poor old
women and children who seem half
starved. They find out now for the
III tlie lHdt theiT ledueTS were ue-
ceiving and misleading them. and there
is terribly bitter feeling against Ag-
uinaldo, Luna and the others who have
posed as patriots.
1T is rumored that the gallant 1st
is to be ordered home soon. Every
body hopes that this is true. If |
do not see your friend ] will send the
souvenirs by some member of Com
pany H, as I have decided to stay a
while in civil life. l think I shall like
this country"
Mr.. Case wrote this letter under
date of May p, from San Fernando.

QUICK AND HOT.
1t Was Impossible to Save Anything
From the Kendall Mill Fire.


From the Kendall Mill Fire.
Missoula, July 26.--Engineer Blake
and John Ouimette are in town from
the Kendall mill at Florence, which was
burned last week. They are on bust
ness connected with the rebuilding Of
the mill and will return at once. Mr..
Ouimette Is badly burned on the hands
and the back of his head and both men
lost their tools in the fire, which they
say was the quickest and hottest that
they ever saw. A high wind was blow
ing and the fire reached the oil barrels
soon after 1T got started, so that 1t was
out of the question to save anything.
The mill roof burned like sheet of pa
per and had all fallen in five minutes
after the blaze started. Mr.. Blake got
his tool chest out of the engine room
and had it about 10 feet from the build
ing when he discovered that he left two
or three tools that he wanted He ran
back to the engine room, but the flames
drove him back and by that time it was
so hot that he had to leave his chest,
which was burned where he had drag
ged it. Mr.. Ouimette had a similar ex-
perience in the filing room. He attempt
ed to roll out the extra saws and to
save some of his own tools, but received
his burns in doing SO and only got q
part of his stuff.
Mr. Kendall has been at the mill for
a couple of days. Assistant state Bolief
Inspector Daily went up to Florence
with him and made thorough test of
the mill boiler which he found to be all
right and not seriously damaged by the
fire. Mr.. Kendall says that most of the
mill machinery is all right and that the
loss will not be as heavy as was at first
expected. This is good news, as 1t
means that the mill will be in operation
in short time. The parts that are
headed tn replace those that were burn
ed have been ordered and the delay will

trees, had fattened on his raspberries
