Wheu the cotton season first
opened, the bids tarried within the
five cent circle, and from there
crawled to six cents, and then on to
seven cents, and today we find the
cotton buyers Offering from eight to
nine cents pound. Cotton, in our
opinion, will reach the ten cent
price before the month is out. If
you have bale or two you are safe
in holding it a few days more if you
want to get higher prices.

O. P. Walker, son of Representa-

snake well stuffed, with his rattles
intact. The snake was a vicious
looking piece of creeping, crawling
quivering customer to deal with
before he was killed, but we write
this notice of his snakeship within
striking distance, and feel no more
uneasiness as to harm from it than
does Otis, in his headquarters at
Manila, being molested by Agui-
naldo If you want to see a whop

BATTLE OF SAN FABIAN.
Filipinos Put Up a Hard Fight But
Were Driven Out.

Manila, Nov. 15.-The Thirty-third in
fantry. in one Of the sharDest two
hours engagements of the war with an
equal force of insurgents, five miles
from San Fabian, Saturday, lost one
officer and six men killed and one Off
Ger and twelve men wounded. The
Americans captured twenty-nine Fill
pinOs and 100 rifles and found eighty
one insurgents dead, lying in the
trenches and rice fields. Many more
Filipincs, doubtless, were killed or
General Wheaton was informed that
the enemy was gathering at San ia
cintO for the purpose of preventing the
Americans from controlling the road
from Dagupan north, whereby Aguin-
aldo might retreat. The Thirty-t third,
Colonel Howe commanding, and de-
tachment of the Thirteenth, with a gat-
Ting gun, Rowland commanding, were
sent to dispense them. The troops en-
cOunteTed the worst road ever found in
the island of LuzOn. There was a sue
cession of creeks, whose bridges the
Americans had to stop and repair, and
miry bitches and at certain places, men
and horses, struggled waist deep in
agmires. hundred soldiers had to
drag the gattling gun part of the way,
the horses being useless. The insur-
gents opened the fight two miles from
San JacintO, While the leading Ameri-
can battalion was passing a clump of
houses, in the midst of a cOcOanut
grove, knee deep in mud. The Filipino
sharp shooters, hidden in trees, houses
and a small trench across the road,
held their fire until the Americans We're
close to them. When they began fir
ing other Filipinos opened fire from
thicketS, right and left, further away
The insurgent sharpshOterS picked off
the officers first. Five of the Ameri-
cans who fell wore shoulder straps OF
| chevrons. But the Thirty-third never
! WaVered. Its crack markSnen knocked
the FilipinOs down from trees like
squirrels. and the Americans rushed
/ the trenches, leaving four dead insur-
gents there. The regiment then deplOy-
I ed under fire, with Major John A. LO-
I gan's battalion in the center. Major
| CrOnic's on the right and Major
] MarSh's on the left. The SkIrmish line
which was a long line, advanced rap
/ idly, keeping up a constant fire. The
FilipinOS made an unexpectedly gOOG
\ stand. many of them remaining under
/ cover until the Americans were within
! twenty feet of them. Major March
! fianked q small trench full of insur-
/ gents, surprising them and slaughter
! ing nearly all of them before entering
the town The gattling gun killed fv,
/ of the force holding the bridge anC
! swept the country beyond the town
| driving about $50 Filipinos into tht
| hills. Marshs battalion, entering tht
1 town. first, captured a big hattie flag
/ which was flying over a convent.
The insurgents are supposed to have
/ retreated toward Dagupan.
i 1t was impossible to pursue them as

CHARLESTON A TOTAL LOSS
Further Details of the Grounding of
the Cruiser.

Manila. Nov. 15-Further details re-
garding the grounding OF the United
States cruiser Charleston shows that
she struck an uncharted coral reeI ten
miles east of Laamiguen island her
stern was almost submerged and the
bow almost out of water. A heaVy sea
was and the cruiser began rOlllng
violently. The water tight doors were
quickly closed, but were stove in under
the engine compartment, the largest Of
the ship.
After the first efforts to right her the
officers feared she might slide of be-
cause of the heavy sea and they aban-
dOned the attempt to save her They
hurried to the launches and boats ana
rOWed away, prepared to fight for a
landing, with two Colt guns, 134 rifles
and ten days ratiOns. Some of the Offi-
GERS and men were dressed only IN
pajamas and their underclothing. The
breech blocks of the cannon were re-
moved before the boats put off. Two
hours after the Charleston struck all
had gotten away. The report that the
crew remained two days on the vessel
is inaccurate. A party returned two
days later, but found it impossible to
save anything.
The first landing was made on a little
island, with a front of barrel rocks
Next day the boats again took to the
water and proceeded to Kamiguin is
| land, where a landing was made IN the
| the expectation that firing would be
necessary. SO far from this being the
case, however, the CharlestOn'S men
/ iOunQ Il hall savage people, WHO re-
garded them with curiosity rather than
hostility.
On the third day the storm had
| greatly subsidized and Lieutenant John
! d. Mcdonald, with BOatswains Dom
nick, Glynn and six men started for
! the gulf of Lingayen in a thirty foot
/ sailing launch, hoping to find an Ameri-
| can warship, but entirely ignorant of
General WheatOn's expedition.
! Lieutenant Mcdonald was four days
/ afioat, keeping under shelter of the
| hostile shore for two days on account
| of the high seas, being most of the time
| in a soaking rain. Finally flying the
| union jack, down, clad in their under
! clothing and drenched to the skin, the
officer and his companions over took the
| transport Aztec, which carried them to
| the battIeship Oregon.
! The gunboat Helena was due to ar
| rive at Kamiguin island yesterday. The
| Charleston was returning from a five
