MAY SEND THE THREE MILLIONS BACK

Havana, March 3O-General Brooke

ago in conference with General Brooke
and General Gomez. The latten said
that such a course would serve the as

against the assembly. General Ernst

A file of United States troops would

the making of new states and providing
a national defense are constitutional
ends, so that we may acquire and hold

Cuban National Party.
The organization of the so-called Gu
ban national party is proceeding. Meet
ings are held nightly and to-day the
promoters issued a manifesto to the
people of Havana, calling upon them to
unite their efforts to organize ward
committees with a view of disseminate
ing information preparatory to ma
tional convention. This movement, it
is said, is due to the approaching cleo
tions, but it has already developed a
split in the eastern districts, where the
Cuban federalists have organized to
promote a republic. The latter under
taking is not recognized here. In Ha-
vana the national party finds its oppon-
ent in the Liga Patriotica. an out
growth of the recently dissolved Junta
Patriotica, which is working along the
same general lines. These disconnected
efforts to establish a national party are
regretted by the best Cuban element, as

A TERRIFIC FIRE.
Was Poured Into the Americans as They
Advanced ON Ma!olos.

Manila. March 81 7:35 p, m.-Tne
United States troops rested last night in
the jungle, about a mile and quarter
from Maloos. The days advance be-
gan at . O'Clock and covered a distance
of about two and a half miles beyonCB
Guiguinto river along the railroad. The
brunt of the battle was on the right
OF the track, where the enemy was ap-
parently concentrated.
The 1St Nebraska, lst South Dakota
and 10th Pennsylvania regiments en-
countered them entrenChed on the bor-
der of the woods, and the Americans
advancing across she open. suffered a
terrific fire for half an hour, Four men
of the Nebraska regiment were killed
and so We're wounded. Ten men of the
Dakota regiment were wounded and one
of the Pennsylvanians were killed.
The Americans finally drove the Fill
pinos back Although there We're three
lines of strong entertainments along the
track. the enemy made scarcely any
defense there. General Macarthur and
his staff We're walking on the track
abreast of the line with everything
quiet when suddenly they received a
shower of bullets from sharpshOoters
in trees and on house-tops, but these
We're speedily dislodged.
The enemy's loss was apparently
small. the jungle affordng them such
protection that the Americans We're un-
able to see them in firing and We're
guided only ny the sound of the Fill
pinos shots. The American artillery
was handicapped for the same reason.
Last nights long line of camp fires
made a beautiful sight with the 20th
Kansas regiment on the left of Guigin
to station and the Pennsylvania regi-
ment on the right, beyond the river.
The provision train was delayed by
broken bridges, but the stores OF grain
and fiocks of ducks in the locality fur
nished ample forage.
The hospital work is remarkably eff
cient, as it has been throughout the
whole campaign.
The telegraphers keep abreast of the
line and maintain a constant connec-
ton with the city.
