WHERE THE FIGHTING BEGAN.

Aguinaldo's disheartened soldiers
opened fire along the northern lines east
and west of Caloocan early this Mon
day. morning, but it was mostly at long
range and lacked the dignity of an at
tack. There was a spirited reply and
after few sharp rallies the enemy fell
back and the firing died away.
The general line was not engaged,
and there were no serious casualties.
The burial of the dead Filipinos by
our soldiers began this morning. In
one place $50 bodies were found and in
another so. Nearly every American
regiment engaged has reported the
finding of 80 or more of the enemy dead
along its front.
General Hughes provost brigade,
which is composed of the Minnesota
volunteers and men from the Twenty
third Infantry, are doing excellent
work in the city in keeping the natives
in subsection.
The First Tennessee Infantry has
been divided, one battalion reinforcing
General Anderson and two battalions
joining General McArthur'S command.
The troops are now on the way to seize
the waterworks, which are situated five
miles north of the city.
The number of American troops en-
gagged Sunday was 1900, while the
Il
The Americans while the fighting was
going on were disposed of in the fol-
lowing manner from the bay on the
north around the city to the bay on the
south:
Twentieth Kansas Infantry, Third
Artillery, First Montana Infantry and
Tenth Pennsylvania Infantry, under
command of Brigadier General Harri-
son Gray Otis; First South Dakota In
fantry, First Colorado Infantry and
First Nebraska Infantry, commanded
by Brigadier General Hale, both bri-
gades being supported by batteries A
and B of Utah Light Artillery, under
command of General Macarthur; First
California Infantry, First Idaho Infan-
try, First Wyoming Infantry and First
Washington Infantry, under Brigadier
General King; Fourth Cavalry, Four
teenth Infantry and First North Da-
kota Infantry, commanded by Brigadier
General Ovenshine, both brigades sup
ported by Sixth Artillery division, COM
manded by General Anderson.

with the dead and dying torn to pieces
and terribly mangled and bleeding ma
tives lying all about. On Sunday
afternoon the Charleston Joined the
monitor Monadnock off Malate. which
was the scene of the heaviest fighting
with the Spaniards in August, and both
vessels delivered their shells with tell
ing effect. The enemy were retiring
before the steady advance of the Four
teenth Infantry, and had comparatively
little shelter. They furnished excellent
targets for thel marksmanshin of the
Yankee gunners, whose reputation suf-
fered nothing from the engagement.
The Olympia, Admiral Dewey'S flag
ship, took no part in the bombardment.
With the fine strategy, for which the
American naval commander is noted, he
placed the vessel in a position directly
in front of the city, between the Spanish
gunboat General Alava and the German
cruiser Irene and the troops ashore.
The significance of this move will be
readily grasped. This was fight be-
tween the Americans and Filipinos, and
no outsiders could be permitted to en-
ter the ring, so Admiral Dewey con-
stituted himself sort of referee to say
hands off, if it became necessary.
The captured Spanish gunboat Lagu-
ma de Bay did good work for her new
owners She is a light draught vessel
and has proved most serviceable on
more than one occasion since the Amer
leans have had her. Sunday she went
up the Pasig River and fairly riddled
the village of Santa Ana with gatling
guns, tearing the huts to pieces, kill
ing many rebels and driving others to
seek a new shelter The good result
of the firing was seen this morning,
when nearly all the native huts on the
outskirts of the CITY, that were left
standing were flying white flags to
prevent attack by the Americans
The Filipinos have not yet stopped
retreating. The Americans are still in
pursuit of them, determined to give
them a lesson they will never forget.
Our troops north of the city are now
nearly to Caloocan on the Daguayahan
railway. This place fairly bristles with
Notifications, and is the strongest po-
sition of the rebels. To the south the
Americans are at Pasay, which is south
of Malate.

MONTREAL, Feb. 6.-Agoncillo has
had an extremely busy day of it.
Newspapernen and people drawn by
curiosity have thronged his room all
day long, and the Filipino envoy has
been kept busy answering questions
ever since he finished his breakfast this
morning. The interviews in the even
ing papers amused him greatly.
'"They have come here and asked me
all sorts of questions" he said tonight,
"and then they have gone away and
printed what they liked, or what they
thought I said
Agoncillo was shown the Associated
cation of the peace treaty. He read
them with interest The final vote in
terested him in particular.
THAT is not a very big majority, is
it?" he said. But when pressed to ex-
press an opinion n the Senate's action
he declined.
Il cannot say anything just now. I
am not yet aware of the circumstances.
/ really cannot say anything about the
matter until l have had an opportunity
to fully consider the situation. Neither
can l say anything about my future
movements. They are dependent en-
tirely upon circumstances.
Then Agoncillo began asking ques-
lions about the Canadian constitution.
He has asked good many of a similar
nature to-day. He inquired of all his
visitors as to whether they prefer to
have Canada a colony or not.
You have not got freedom he de-
clared, and you don't want it. You
are not like u.s.

best for the human race that they should

women to preserve their health if they
wish. It IS far from impossible for them
to restore il after it has been lost. That
being the case, the modern Cupid is right
In looking with disfavor upon matrimonial
matches between sick men and unhealthy
women. Ill-health in woman is generally
the result of some weakness or disorder of
the distinctly feminine organism that is

seem to her quite unimportant They grow
steadily worse until she suffers all the time
from burning and dragging sensations, and
occasionally has to take to her bed. Fin

of the ratification of the treaty he
will appreciate the futility of the con-
fiict with the United States and will be
willing to make terms of surrender. II
is assumed that Agoncino, who is in
Montreal, has taken measures TO inform
Aguinaldo of the action of the Senate
but Otis will be ahead of him and will
send the information into the insurgent
lines without delay, but Secretary
Long, for the information of Dewey,
cabled to that official
Treaty ratified
1t is possible, of course, that Aguin-
aldo may continue fighting, in which
event he will be shown no quarter, but
will be relentlessly pursued until he is
forced to surrender. The President does
not propose to show any vacillation in
this matter. The policy to be put into
effect is the same as that adopted i'm
mediately upon the outbreak of the
war with Spain-to concentrate every
effort to break down the power of the
enemy in the quickest possible time
No apprehension is felt as to the re-
suit of the attack on Iloilo. Miller has
at his disposal a force of about 5000
men, and he will be aided in his oper-
atoms against Hoilo by the cruisers
Baltimore and Boston and the gun
boats Petrol and Concord. There are
said to be about 10000 natives defend
ing the town, but they are badly armed
and it is not believed that any great
difficulty will be experienced in driving
them out of town
I was informed tonight that Otis
will continue his operations under the
terms of the Presidents proclamation
issued some weeks ago. Protection will
be afforded to all peaceful inhabitants
in the islands, and harsh means will be
adopted toward those breaking the
peace and defying the authority of the
United States. AS to the future policy
of the administration in the Philippines
/ understand that the President has de-
termined to take no action until the
report of the Schurman commission is
received.

the wounded, many of.the latter being

1t is incomprehensible to any intelIi-

Aguinaldo could have been so stupid

no courage could have withstood the
terrible rain of death that fell upon
the Fihpinos as the gallant Americans
approa ched their positions.
When the enemy retreated. after
stubborn resistance, it was in utter
rout, and the only desire seemed, to
have been to get out of the range of the
American guns as rapidly as possible.

losses places the number at 1000 killed

@ municate TO the insurgents the
9 information that the treaty of c

In addition to such a vigorous policy
against the insurgents, the President is
actuated by a desire to bring to an
end with all dispatch the rebeIlious
movement which Aguinaldo has inaug-
urated against this Government. This
was determined upon, as stated in the
Herald this morning, as a result of the
conference at the White House last
night ana fufthef conference at the
Executive Mansion which was partici-
pated in by the President, Secretary
Alger and Secretary Long.
At this conference instructions were
prepared to Otis and Dewey along the
lines indicated above These officials
were directed to cooperate in the cam
paign to be begun, and the President
. assures them of his confidence in their
ability and discretion. Approaching
the impossibility of operating the cam
paign from Washington, Otis has been
= notified that the President leaves in his
. hands the conduct of the war. but he
is directed to act vigorously and to

an articld about the "New Farmer. "
He says he is the result Of a revolution
in agricultural methods and has al

article declares:

ers of the United States, and those of
New YORK, the Mississippi valley and
the south in particular, 1t will be
the new-fas hioned farmer who will
bring it about. He is the Moses of
