ATTACK OUR SOLDIERS
A Scouting Party of the Fourth Infantry
Are Pounced Upon.
FIVE OF THE AMERICANS KILLED
Filipinos Reported to Be Very Heavy
Fighting Lasts Several Hours - The
Friendlies Not So Friendly as Thought.

MANILA, June 10.-A battalion OF
the Fourth infantry which left linus,
where General Wheaton is in COM
mand, this morning to reconnoiter
toward Peres das Marlnas, where 1t
was believed that most of the rebels
Bacoor had fed. was attacked in the
rear by apparently friendly natives.
This brought on sharp engagement,
lasting several hours, resulting in 1--WE
Americans being killed and about
twenty-five being wounded. The loss
of the rebels was very heavy.
The battalion soon exhausted its
ammunition and at 2:30 this afternoon
General Wheaton and his staff. with
the Second battalion, two mountain
guns and one field piece, went to re-
inforce the troops attacked. General
Wheaton was fired on in a road and
had narrow escape.
Later the Third battalion was or
dered to the front and formed on the
Las Minas road. Heavy firing on both
sides followed, the artillery being free
ly used. The enemy was located in
the woods at o'clock. showing signs
of retiring, as the rebels were being
pressed very hard. One gun of the
Sixth artillery in an advantageous po-
sition did great execution.
The fighting was still in progress at
O'Clock, at which time the Americans
had secured quantity of Filipino
arms which had been abandoned in
the woods

Eight are Now Dea d.

Des Moines dispatch: The funeral
of Mrs. Maggie Neal from the home Of
her father, ]. d. Davis in Capital Park,
adds another victim to the roll of
fatalities of those who recently par
took of the wood alcohol at a picnic
near Mingo Jasper county. Mrs. Neal,
with her husband. resided in Mingo,
and is understood to have been one of
a party who attended the picnic some
time since in the vicinity of the town.
1t is said that eight of the crowd in
attendance upon that occasion are now
dead, while four are very low and may
not recover, one of them being the
husband of Mrs. Neal. 1t is reported
that the cause of death in each case
was the poisonous effect of wood alco-
hol, which the parties drank being
unable to procure any other stimulant
and being ignorant of the deadly eff,
feet upon the human system. The
matter has been kept very quiet Il
is supposed that no one in the part,
had any idea of the difference in alco
hol and that the poison was procured
and used in preparing drink.

Supplies Give Out.
CIRCLE CITY, Alaska May 90
(Via San Francisco, June 20)-A story
of possible cannibalism ard death on
the Yukon trail has just reached here
Three men who left Dahl river De-
cember for Jimtown were not heard
of again and they were supposed to
have been lost. Nothing was heard of
them here until the steamer Rideout,
which arrived today, brought a terri
BILE story of suffering and horror.
The men were Michael DAILY, Victor
Ediar and M. Provost. They were from
Providence, r. l., Woonsocket, r. l.,
and Brockton, Mass, respectively.
Their bodies were discovered seven
teen miles from the mouth of Old
Mans creek, they having lost the trail
and become bewildered. Having left
Dahl river with only three weeks food,
but which was amply sufficient for the
$50 miles to Jimtown, the poor fellows
were soon reduced to starvation.
Days body was found, partly eaten,
in tent on the stove, just as it was
Some scraps of moose hide and moe
casin were found, of which they were
endeavoring to make a stew.
Days body was identified by the
clothes. The other two men were
found dead five miles away from the
tent The fact of the tent flaps being
shut down when found would seem to
preclude the possibility of Days body
having been eaten by animals. The
other men had doubtless been driven
by hunger to the awful extremity of
cannibalism. Four hundred dollars
were found on the bodies. The seven
boats which wintered at Dahl river
are all safe. They are the st. Michael,

Protest Against Removal.

Des Moines dispatch: A committee
has been appointed by the Trades AS
sembly to do all in it's power to pre-
vent the governor from removing Mr.
OBleness from Office, it having
reached their ears that Governor
Shaw contemplated such move The
committee will file with the executive
concil or the governor a protest in
the shape of memorial, being a rep
resentation of facts accompanied by a
petition. They will claim that Labor
Commissioner O'Bleness should not be
held responsible for any of his acts
or wrongdoings in Office since July II,
when 1t is alleged that he sustained
the injury from which he is now suf-
fering and for which it is necessary
to have the skull operated upon In
order to restore normal condition of
the brain, which, it is claimed has
been injured to such an extent that he
was not responsible for his actions.
1t is said that the executive council
has been made aware of the fact that
during some of the trips of Labor
Commissioner O'Bleness, when he
claimed to be on business for the state
and charged mileage in his bills OF
expense, that he was riding on trans
portation furnished free by the rail-
road companies.

eide Saturday night by hanging him
self to a door in the district school
house. Mr.. Badron was road super
visor. Saturday he had been bossing
the work and at o'clock started for

clothing except his shoes, and after
fastening a quarter inch rope around
his neck and above the door, threw
himself forward from a desk, the fall
breaking his neck. He was so years
old and had a family of grown up
children. His wife was dead and he
was soon to marry again. The cause

MURDERED FOR Monty.
Wealthy Farmer of Julian, in Nemaha
County Found Dead in His House

County, Found Dead in His House.
AUBURN, Neb., June 20.-(Special
TO the Omaha Bee. 1.-THE partially de-
composed body of st. John Bahaud, a
wealthy farmer who lived alone near
Julian, was found in his house last
evening. Bahaud was last seen alive
on Thursday and a search revealed his
corpse,
After the work of an autopsy had
been completed the coroner's jury
found that both frontal and parietal
bones had been crushed by some blunt
instrument, but there was nothing to
indicate that ball had passed through
the brain.
To all appearances both hands and
one foot had been burned, probably
to force the victim to tell where his
money was hidden. The house had
been ransacked. but no one can have
any idea as to the amount of money,
if any, secured. 1t was generally be-
lieved that the old man had large
sums of money hidden about the place,
though the story was discredited by
those who knew him best. He was
the owner of almost 500 acres of land
from which he received good rent be-
sides number of good buildings in
Julian.
In opening tin box in which were
kept deeds and valuable papers tho
robber evidently cut his hand SO thar
it bled profusely, as there was blood
on the papers and all about the room.
This red to the hope that scent might
be secured by bloodhounds and the
Beatrice hounds were sent for and ar
rived at about 80 yesterday after
noon and at present writing there is
nothing to indicate that the trail will
be taken up. The remains were buried
yesterday afternoon and the jury is
still at work.
There is great excitement in the vi
cinity of Julian over the murder and
should the guilty parties be appre-
hended there would be one case of
lynching in Nemaha county.
