VIII Take to the Mountains IL De-
feated at Ma In bon.

MANILA, March 4.-Two Spanish pris-
oners who have escaped from Polo to the
lines of the Kansas regiment report that
the Filipinos have concentrated their forces
at MaIabon and Polo. They add that only
Aguinaldo's bodyguard is at Malolos, and
that the rebel leaders apparently intend to
stake their fortunes on a fight at Malabon,
where 1t was expected an engagement would
take place yesterday. IL defeated, 1t is fur
ther asserted, the rebels intend TO take to
the swamps and mountains. The rebels
were putting the bolos in front, believing
that the bolomen's charms will avert the
bullets The Bolos of the F'ilipinos greatly
outnumber the rifles in their hand. The
rebels are further said to have admitted
that they could not stand the American
smells and bayonet charges. The escaped
Spaniards corroborated the stories told of
food shortage among the rebels. and they
added that the hospitals are short of sup
plies.
The enemy is extremely active in the
vicinity of Malabon preparing defenses. evil

OF General Lawtons arrivaI srr-.-anila have
been withdrawn to the water front and a
complete reorganization of the army is now
in progress. The reinforcements now arriv
ing at Manila are being used to maintain
the strength of the lines running from Ma
Mia to Pasig established by Wheaton's fly
ing brigade. The next movement that is ex-
pected here is to be by water. 1t is be-
lieved that Otis will place a complete
brigade on board vessels, steam rapidly
northward and land them beyond the in
surgent headquarters at Malolos. If this
movement succeeds, as it should if made
with rapidity, the insurgent army will find
itself completely penned in with no oppor-
tunity for retreat. To the north will be

Bay, across which they will be prevented
from escaping by the American gunboats
now afoat there; the Pasig river to the
south is we'll poiced by 'tin-clads'' and
with strong line in the position occupied
by Wheatons brigade will cut off any
movement in that direction, while in the
west the Bay of Manila is closed by
Dewey's vessels. 1t is hard to conceive how,
If this plan carries. the insurgents can
longer avoid a decisive conflict which must
end either I'm their breaking through the
American lines or In their surrender. IL Is
evident that Otis expects the latter. for he
has already advised the War Department
that the instruction cannot last much
longer.
The War Department has been asked If
some of the volunteer regiments returning
from Cuba which were organized as i'm
munes could be re-enlisted in their entirety.
1t was stated that some of these regiments
desired TO so enlist and be sent to the Philip
pines. In reply the department. says that
such enlistments cannot be made. The tenn
porary re-enlistments provided for under
the army law are to be made from volun-
teer troops now serving in the Philippines,
who will be subject TO immediate muster out
as soon as the ratification of the peace
treaty is proclaimed. 1t is expected that
General Otis will organize a brigade or
more of these men. The organizations will
be entirely new and no semblance of the
former state regiments will be maintained.
1t Is possible that some of the volunteer
officers of state militia who have shown
great aptitude i'm military matters will be
given commissions in the temporary regi-
ments to be organized i'm the Philippines
These new regiments will not be kept i'm
service very long unless the situation in the
Philippines becomes much worse. The be-
lief is expressed that this is not likely, as
the reports from General Otis for a week
or ten days have indicated an early collapse
OF the rebellion In Luzon. The temporary
organizations, it is said, will be retained
until the regular troops now under orders
for Manila reach that place.

earnest and unremitting endeavors of the

have had their legitimate effect in con-

THE NAVY DEPARTMENT.

The navy has maintained the spirit
and high efficiency which have always
characterized that service and has lost
none of the gallantry in heroic action
which has signaiized it's brilliant and
glorious past. The nation has equal
pride in its early and later achievements
It's habitual readiness for every emer-
gency has won the confidence and adj
niration of the country. The people are
interested in the continued preparations
and prestige of the navy and will justify
liberal appropriations for its maintain

have shown peculiar adaptation for the
performance of new and larger duties
which our recent war imposed. 1t can
not be doubted that congress will at once
make provisions for armor plates for the
