Caloocan Taken After a Heavy
Fire From Our Troops
and Fleet.
AMERICAN LOSS SLIGHT.
Aguinaldo'S Men Are Driven From
Their Stronghold With
Many Losses.

A Dashing Charge over the Fislds-Agui-
ualdo Reported to Have Established
Headquarters at Malabon, for the Pur-
pose of Rallying His Forces For De-
cisive Blow.
Manila, Feb. 15.-In a short and de-
cisive action the United States forces
carried Caloocan, the enemy being
driven out with great loss.
AT a signal from the tower of the
Delalone Church the United States
Louble-turreted monitor Monadnock
opened fire from the Bay with the
big guns of her forward turret ON the
earthworks with great effect.
The Utah battery soon afterw8rd
bombarded the place from the land
side. The rebels reserved their fire
until the bombardment ceased, when
they fred volleys of musketry as the
Montana regiment advanced on the
jungle.
The Kansas regiment, on the ex-
treme left, with the Third artillery
deploying to the right, charged across
the open and carried the earthworks,
c.-eering, under a heavy fire. Sup
ported by the artillery at the church,
the troops further advanced, driving
the enemy, fighting every foot, right
into the town line, and penetrated to
the Presidencia and lowered the Fill
ipino flag.

URGING CABLE TO MANILA.
Pres't Mckinley Sends a Mes
sage to Congress Recon-
mending 1t.
ACTION AT THIS SESSION
Says That There Should Be Through
Communication With Hawaii,
Guam and the Philippines.

Congress Asked to Determine Whether
This Should BE n Governmental or Priv
ate Entcrpriss-Two Years Required to
Finish It-Has become Paramount
Necessity.
Washington, d. c., Feb. 15.-The
Presidents message on the Pacific ca
BILE transmitted to Congress was as
follows
"As consequence of the ratification
of the treaty of Paris by the Senate
of the United States and its expected
ratification by the Spanish Govern
ment, the United States will come in
to possession of the Philippine Islands
on the further shores of the Pacific.
'The Hawaiian Islands and Guam
being United Safes territory and form
ing convenient stopping places on the
way across the sea, the necessity for
speedy cable communication between
the United States and all these Pacific
islands has become imperative. Such
communication should be established
in such way as to be wholly under
the control of the United States,
whether in time of peace or war. At
present the Philippines can be reached
only by cables which pass through
many foreign countries, and the Ha-
waiian Islands and Guam can only be
communicated with by steamers, in
volving delays in each instance of at
least week. The present condition
should not be allowed to continue for
moment longer than is absolutely
necessary.
The time has now arrived when
cable in the Pacific must extend as
far as Manila, touching at the Ha-
waiian Islands and Guam on the way.
Two methods of establishing this ca
BILE communication at once suggest
themselves-first, construction and
maintenance of such a cable at the
expense of the United States Govern
ment; and, second, construction and
maintenance of such a cable by a pri-
vate United States corporation under
such safeguards as Congress shall
impose. g.
II do not make any recommends
tions to Congress as to which of these
methods would be the more desirable.
A cable of the length of that proposed
requires so much time for construc-
ton and laying that it is estimated
that at least two years must elapse
after giving the order for the cable
before the entire system could be sue
cessfully laid and put in operation.
Further, deep-sea soundings must be
taken west of the Hawaiian Islands
before the best route can be selected.
Under these circumstances it be-
COMES a paramount necessity that
measures should be taken before the
close ofthe present Congress to pro-
vide such means as may seem suitable
for the establishment of cable sys-
ton.
81 commend the whole subject to
the careful consideration of the Con-
gress, and to such prompt action as
may seem advisable.

Aguinaldo Fears CAPTURE

Manila Feb. 15.-It is learned from
good authority that Aguinaldo is do
ing everything in his power to give
heart to his disorganized and dispirit-
army. 1t is apparent that his vanity
ard his desire to retain his authority
will lead him to commit another blum
der and again pit his army against the
Americans if he can instil enough
courage in his men to get them to face
the Yankees. Aguinaldo knows that
his capture is sought by the Ameri-
cans, and he is constantly taking eX-
traordinary precautions to keep from
railing into our hands. which would
mean the bursting of the bubble of
lf-government he has blown for his
own ends He has turned over the
active command of the army to Gen.
Luna, who was formerly Secretary
of War in the Filipino Cabinet, and
will himself keep well out of the reach
of the Americans.

Ballot Machine BIZ is Passed.

Washington, Feb. 1L.-Mr. Corliss,
OF Michigan, for the Committee on
Election of President and Vice Presi-
dent and Representatives of Congress,
called up the Senate bill to change the
law regulating the use of ballots in
Congressional elections so as to per-
NIT the use of ballot machines when
they have been duly authorized by the
State in which they are used. Ma
chimes had been adopted in several
States, Mr.. Corliss said, notably New
York and Massachusetts, but owing
to doubt as to their legality, they had
not been used in Congressional elec.
tions. The bill was passed.

Refu. cd a Seat In the Senate.

SAT- Lake City, Feb. 15.-Moses
Thatcher, formerly an apostle Of the
Mormon Church, has been offered a
seat in the United States Senate by
the Democratic members of the Utah
Legislature, but has declined it.
Thatcher has four wives, having
taken them prior to the PRONUNCIATION
of the manifesto against polygamy.
1t was because of his status on that
question that he declined the Senator
ship, expressing the belief that it is
unwise for the people of Utah to
fiaunt their practice in the face of
the nation, in view of the furor raised
by Robertss selection.

War Department Certain Rebels Will Quit
Whom MaIoios Is Taken.
Washington, Feb. 15.-The War De-
partment has been officially advised
of the important victory Of the Ameri-
can troops over the Filipinos at Cal
oocan. The Adjutant-General did not
give out any of the details
The War Departments officials stat
ed that there would now be only one
more battle in Luzon, and that would
take place in front of or near Malolos.
The Importance of the defeat at Caloo-
can, they say, is that it was the place
to which Aguinaldo expected his
forces to retire in case of the failure
of the night attack on Manila.
The War Department officials be.
lieve that Gen. Otis's aggressive cam.
paign of continuous pursuit of the
enemy has prevented Aguinaldo's
scattered forces from concentrating:
and especially at the admirable de-
fensive battle ground of Caloocan.
General Otis has continued to push
his forces north. east and south, and
is driving the wings and centre of
Aguinaldo's army in different direc-
tons.
The reports received indicate that
Aguinaldo is now with the centre of
his army thirteen miles beyond Ma
nila, ON the road to Malolos.

Snow. Wind and Bitter Cold.

New York. Feb. 15.-The snOwstOrm
that began so gently on Saturday
evening developed into the severest
storm that has visited this section of
the country since the blizzard of 1888.
Almost all the railroads leading into
the city and into Jersey City practi-
cally suspended the running of trains.
Inside the limits of Manhattan the
surface cars and the elevated trains
tain intervals. but all the other traffic
was at standstill The storm caused
great deal of suffering among the
poor. and the Street Cleaning Depart
ment was totally helpless. The city
was practically isolated.

The enemy's sharpshooters, in the
jungle on the right, fired at long range
on the Pennsylvania regiment. The
rebels were soon silenced by shrapnel
shells, and the Pennsylvanians re-
manned in the trenches. AS he
Americans advanced they burned the
native huts. The rebels We're moved
down like grass, but the American
loss YVES slight.
Prior to the engagement the rebels
seem to have selected Malabon as the
base of operations for their next en-
counter with the Americans las they
were concentrating considerable
force there and at Caloocan. Many
small bodies of scattered rebel troops
are struggling in from the right, and
others are undoubtedly arriving from
the north and the interior provinces.
Aguinaldo is reported to have estab-
lished his headquarters at MalabOn,
for the purpose of rallying his forces
for decisive blow.
