HOT FIGHT AT
LATTER PLACE
North Dakota Volunteers in the Thick
of It-Five Americans Killed and
Two Wouuded-GunbOats Shelled
the Position of the Enemy for an
Hour, Driving Them Out

New YORK April IA dispatch to
the Herald from Manila says: The expe-
dition under Major-General Lawton yes
terday moved II miles further north
along the lake, taking two towns, Longos
and Paete. A squadron of the Fourth
cavalry was left to garrison Santa Cruz.
There was only desultory shooting
from the retreating enemy until the adj
vance reached Paete, the center of the
insurgent military government in the
district of Laguna de Bay. Here the
road is fanked by steep hills on each
side, on which the insurgents bad con-
structed great log trenches, and also
across the road. The North Dakota
regiment ran into cross fire.
Squads of five sharpshooters each were
sent up the steep hill and through the
thick brush to flank the insurgents. One
squad of the North Dakota regiment
suddenly came to the insurgent trench,
halting when only fifteen yards off. Only
one man in this squad got away unhurt.
The thin-clad gunboats ehelled the in
surgents' position for an hour. The
enemy was finally driven out.
Our loss was FIVE killed and two
wounded, the greatest loss Lawton has
yet sustained.
The launches captured Tuesday are
!! worth 100000.

The only clue found was IL woman's

Cubernatorial Contest.

Court convened at $50 yesterday
and together with the respective counsel
put i'll a hard days work. The session
was opened by the rel.,or placing MIR
Joe Joseph upon the stand to testify az
to the making Of certain red lines upon
the ballots in Storey county,. Mr.. Joseph
proved IA very pc + witness for the rela-
tor, rs his explanation of how the lines
came to appear on the ballots only helped
to strengthen respondents contention
that all ballots so marked are illegal and
should be rejected by the Court.
1t appears from his testimony that if
the voters in Gold Hill had objected to
voting tickets marked with these red
lines and demanded clean ones from the
inspectors, there were enough and more
unmarked ballots in their possession to
allow every Gold Hll voter to use a
ballot that WAS clean and entirely free
from designation. Not only this but
If The inspectors ha3 given out the ballots
in the regular order of the numbt rs
printed upon them, the red line ballots
would never have found their way into

First Ward of Vi gnia respondent ou-
lccted t" 20 ballots ID relator to Ii. In

side found only : ballots to which obinc-
tiOns could possibly be Interpo~ed.
At the conclusion of the Storey county
count McMiIlan's attorneys moved the
Court to throw out all the Storey county
ballots from the count on the ground that
the proper foundation for their introduce
ton had not been land, as there WAS not a
sufficient showing that The ballots had
been properly cared tor or that they ha /
come from the proper custody. Sadler's
attorneys Immediately interposed an CD
lection upon the same ground TO the bal
