Their appearance aroused great inter
est as they were marched from the
railroad depot TO the prison.
The rebels have unload-d about 300
men from a train half mile in front
of Gen. MacArthur's forces, with the
object of reinforcing the Filipino gar
risons at Bulacan and Guiguinto, on
each side of the railroad leading TO
Maiolos- The fact that the railroad is
in operation from here to our front
facilitates the transportation of sup

tation OF supplies was very uncertain.
