Many of the leading grape growers
and winemaliers of California have
signed an agreement to sell their
grapes to Henry j. Crocker for the
next Sc en- years at STA ton. Mr..
Crockcr stands ready to finance such
an arrangement if over rs per cent OF
the sineyardists of the state will
agree to his terms. 1t is the most
feasible plan ever presented for the
handling of the grape crop of the
state, paying the growers fair profit
and preventing the ruinous competi-
ton that has often compelled growers
to sell new wine for 10 cents gallon.

Thus Placing a New Territory Under
American Military Control.
Sharp Skirmsh With the FiIipinos Results in
Heavy Casualties to the Insurgents
Six Americans Wounded.

MANILA, April Io-Gen Lawtons expedition cap
tured Santa Cruz the rebel stronghold the southeast
shore OF Laguna dc Bay. The Filpinos made strong
and stubborn resistance but finally routed and with
great loss Their killed numbered sixtyeght and forty
wounded The American casualties were six wounded
The fire of the Americans in this engagement showed
remarkable precision and was the most deadly of the
entire war.
Americans captured large number of prisoners,
several cannon, and large stock of rifles and ammuni
ton. The troops landed near the city and made the
advance at break of day. The fighting began on the
outskirts Of the city where the enemys outposts
encountered. These were easily driven in and the main
body of the rebels charged and hot fight followed,
the Americans needing but little urging and gradually
driving the natives back. The flank movements of our
troops at critical times completely demorazed the
Filpinos and their slow retreat turned into rout
Flying natives were pursued through the streets OF
Santa Cruz and for distance into the interior Then
halt called guards posted throughout the country
and the men rested. Another advance may be made on
the enemy later in the day.
Santa Cruz is town OF considerable importance
Ii is the capital of the province of Laguna and has
population of about 5000. 1t rebel stronghold
and had not been previously attacked 1t is looked upon
by the commanders as an opening wedge to great
stretch OF country beyond. as good roads lead in all
directions from Santa Cruz.
