at San Isidro the rebels feared he
might sweep around upon Tarlac,
where they had installed their nomadic
capital, and catch them between two
armies. All the archives. seals, gilt
triangles and treasure boxes were
packed ready for shipment up the rial
road on the first word of Lawton's adj
vance. .Lawton thought himself able
to take Tarlac from the road, and asked
to be allowed to do it with the men and
rations he had. But orders came to
withdraw his troops from San Isidro
and return to Malolos, leaving small
garrisons at some of the towns he had
captured. His retirement the Filipinos
construed into a retreat, and from that
day the sinking hopes of the insurrec-

PROTEST AGAINST DELAY.
War Department Incensed at Pacific
Railways.
Especial 70 The Herald.l


Washington, Aug. 2i.-The war de-
partment authorities are incensed at
what they term the dilatoriness of the
Pacific railroads in making prepare
lions for the departure of the Thirty
fourth regiment. One OF the leading
officers of the army said today that the
Thirty-fourth could easily have been
at the Preside now, as it had been fully
prepared to leave for several days.
IF the carrying of the regiment was
a private contract on which there was
competition" said this officer, you
can depend upon it that they would
have exerted every effort to expedite
the regiment. But the railway OIL
Gals know the government has got to
send its troops, and that it is sure to
pay, so they exercise no diligence what
ever"
Notwithstanding the delay it is still
believed that the Thirty-fourth will be
the first of the new volunteer organi-
cations at the Presidio. Colonel Kennon
made further report today TO the eff
feet that the regiment was in prime
condition and fully prepared to move.

General Otis caused the country to be

If the Filipino soldiers were de-

of them might be expected to bring
their guns into the American lines and
receive the reward. The entire harvest
from this offer, however, has been less
