Filipino rebels appear to retain much
more of fighting spirit than might be
expected. after their recent San Fer
nando experiences and Gen. Lawton's
drubbines in the South.
After giving up San Fernando with
feeble struggle, they entrenched them
selves at Angeles, and engaged Lieut.. :
Col. Smith s. regiment and the artillery,
making one of the most stubborn re-
sistances of the campaign.
In the Province of Cavite, where it is
supposed the rebels had been scattered
and demoralized beyond recuperation,
| they have assembled an army OF several
Thousand men, distributed among the
| important towns from the lake to the
bay.
After the San Fernando engagement,
| the rebels threatened Baliuag, Quingua
and other places with small American
garrisons.
In brushes between these Filipinos
| and the Americans during three days,
| the Americans lost several men, while
the Filipinos' loss was heavy.
