the San Juan reservoir, about ten
miles from Manila, resulted in the oc-
cupation of San Mateo.
The American loss was three killed
and 10 wounded, including a lieuten-
ant OF the 2lst infantry.
The Americans approached San
Mateo in three columns. Maj. Croniu,
with Il men Of the 25th infantry, adj
vanced from Novalichcs. five miles
west of San Mateo. Capt Rivers, with
100 men of the 4th cavalry, and Capt.
Parke~, formerly lieutenant colonel OF
the l2th New York Volunteer regi-
ment, with $50 men of the 2lst and cath
infantry and the 4th cavalry. APP
preached in two columns from the
south.
Maj. Cronin experienced many diff
culties arising from the condition OF
the country and failed to effect a
junction with Capt. Rivers west of
San Mateo, as had been planned.
Capt. Rivers advancing, took an out
post of the enemy two miles south
west Of the San Mateo. lie then en-

Capt. Parker, on advancing, found
the enemy strongly entrenched on the
far side Of some rice fields, about
mile wide and covered with deep mud.
Pushing forward rapidly, he routed
the Filipinos after 40 minutes fight
ing, and then continued the march
upon San Mateo, which he entered
without serious resistance about half
past one in the afternoon.
Mai. Cronin entered the town about
half-past four. The Americans still
occupy the place. Our men were ex-
hausted by the heavy marching.
Twenty-threc of the enemy are
known TO have been killed.
This is the first action in which Col.
Burt's colored troops participated.
They behaved well, their leaders hav-
ing difficulty in holding them back.
Gen. Young accompanied Capt. Park
er's column and was under fire through
out the engagement. 1t is estimated
that the enemy numbered between 500
and 400 men.
The insurgents have taken the ag-
gressive in the neighborhood of the
railroad. On Saturday night they un-
successfully attacked San Luis, on the
Rio Grande, near Calumpit, which is
varrisoned by two companies of the
2od infantry. The Americans had one
man, a sergeant, killed and two pri-
Yates wounded.
Sunday morning similar affair
took place at Gringua, four miles west
Of Malolos where another small gar
rison is stationed as a safeguard
against a possible attack upon the
