Morlng on to MaIoIos.

Manila, March 29.-The American army
advanced at O clock this morning, sweep
ing onward three miles before 10 o'clock,
and driving the rebels beyond Bocave, to
the east of Bulacan, and on the railroad
leading to Malolos.
Our troops met with but slight resist
ance.
The Filipinos fired volleys yesterday
evening, for the purpose of drawing the
American fire and disclosing the locality
of our positions.
Two men of the Pennsylvania regiment
and one man belonging to the Dakota reg
iment were wounded. The Americans re-
manned silent.
The country between Marilao and Ma
Mia presents a picture Of desolation.
Smoke is curling from hundreds of ash
heaps, and the remains of trees and fences
torn by shrapnel are to be seen every
where. The general appearance of the
country is as If it had been swept by
a cyclone. The roads are strewn with
furniture and clothing dropped in flight
by the Filipinos.
Soldiers Divided RatiOns.
The only persons remaining behind are
a few aged persons too infirm to escape.
They camp beside the ruins of the former
homes and beg passers-ay for any kind of
assistance. The majority of them are liv-
ing on the generosity of our soldiers, who
give them portions of their rations
Bodies OF dead Filipinos are stranded in
the shadows of the river or are resting in
the jungle where they crawled to die or
were left in the wake of the hurrledly re-
treating army. There is no time at present
to bury them.
The inhabitants who fled from Marilao
and Meeuyacan left in such panic that
on tables our soldiers found spread money
and valuables, and In the rooms were
trunks containing other property of value.
This was the case In most of the houses
deserted They were not molested by our
soldiers, but the Chinese who slip I'm be-
tween the armies are iooting when they
can and have taken possession Of several
houses, over which they raised Chinese
flags, some of which were torn down.
Gen. MacArthur's Advance.
At daylight Gen. MacArthur's division
advanced from Marilao. along the railroad
TO Bigaa five miles distant, with the Ne
braska, South Dakota and Pennsylvania
regiments on the right and the Kansas and
Montana regiments and the Third Artil-
lery on the left.
Gen. Whealon's brigade is IN reserve.
The American forces met with strong on
position in the jungle. First one Nebras-
kan and then one Pennsylvania and af-
terward two men of the Montana regiment
were killed Thirty-hve were wounded in
Guiding one officer Of the Kansas regi-
ment.
The rebe.s burned the villages as they
retreated In bad order toward Malolos.
The enemy also tore up sections of the
railroad IN many places and attempted TO
burn the bridge az Bigaa. but the fire
was extinguished, owing 10 the timely ar
rival OF the Americans.

Washington, March 2s.-The President
to-day discussed with his advisors and
callers the situation In the Philippines
Assistant Secretary of War Meiklejohn
and Adiutant General Corbin. who have
kept close track of the progress of the
American army and the condition of the
troops. were with him for some time. With
them he went over the situation and ex-
pressed his pleasure at the good progress
Gen. Otis and his generals had made,
though he regretted the loss of life.
The dispatch of Gen. Otis received early
this morning was not supplemented by any
later news.
The opinion was given at the war de-
partment that Gen. Otis had ample force
under his command, and that when the
regulars now on their way to Manila
reached their destination there would be
little need of retaining the volunteers in
service there.
Volunteers Must Wait.
No demand for muster out will hold good
until the formal ratification of the peace
treaty occurs, and when this viii be done
is not known. The French ambassador,
who is acting for Spain, has no information
on the subject and does not know when
the treaty will be received here.
Secretary Alger has reported a favorable
condition of affairs in Cuba and has ex-
pressed the opinion that more troops
than are now in the island will not be
needed. After the volunteers are sent
home there will be fourteen regiments with
a total of $4,000 men in Cuba, making two
regiments of regulars to each province.
Proclamation to BE Issued.
There was some discussion in official cir
Giles regarding the proclamation which the
Philippine commission may issue. This ac-
ton, 1t is said, is entirely discretionary
with the commission 1t may ssue its pro-
clamation after Gen. Otis reaches AIalolos,
or it may delay until the time seems more
opportune.
If. as reported in some quarters, the
Filipinos abandon Malolos as a capital and
go further north, it is possible that the
proclamation may be withheld. 1t is in
tended that the proclamation shall declare
the purpose of the government of the
United States in the island of Luzon, and
it may seem desirable 10 establish fully
the island before any such step is taken.

Episcopal Services.

The Episcopal church was filled
yesterday as it never was before,
the occasion being the visitation of
the Bishop and the further fact
that fifty or more members would be
taken in the fold of the church and
confirmed by the Bishop. There
was not even standing room left
and many we're turned away.
The day service opened with a
1880 a. m. celebration of communion,
by the rector, in which many of the
members participated,
At 1870 Right Rev. A. G. Gar
rett, D. D. L. L, D, confirmed a

for membership. He preached a

Now that Rev, Percy T. Fem Of

the authorship of that notorious
article for mob law, signed "An
Euemy of the COwardly Murderers
of Our City" we have little more to
say, and will let ''the unpleasant
episode rest, as asked by other
preachers. We must confess, how
ever, to great surprise and pain to
see Rev. FeuR re-afirm the senti-
ments in that letter, in his piece
of yesterday acknowledging its
authorship, as it contained this
extraordinary language: Let us
all agree to make short work of the
next cowardly murderer" also
other strong language fdvoring
mob law, IN our city. This is the
very first instance we have ever
known where a minister of the
gospel advocated mob law through
newspaper. We like Rev. Fem,
personalIy-duty to stand squarely
for a vital principle, causes us to
take issue with him. This paper has
ever opposed mob law, expects to
continue to do so. 1t has always and
under all circumstances constantly
advocated the enforcement of our
laws, and opposed lawlessness and
thuggery of all kinds, and will con-
tinue so to do.
