TO SHUT OFF REBEL Retreat.
Gen. Wheaton's Expedition viii
Land at lingayen.
PLANS ARE CAREFULLY LAID.
This Move Is Expected to Quickly I'm
press Upon the Insurgents the Hope
lessness of Their Characterization Is
Better.

Manila, Nov. S.-Gen. Wheaton's ex-
petition will land at Lingayen gulf
The troops on landing will immediate
ly take positions where they will be
able to command the great coast road,
which Is the great artery of traffic be-
tween northern and southern Luzon
They will hold this road as far north
as Rosario, while the southeast road
will be held to San Jacinto.
This plan, it is believed, will inter-
fere with the retreat to the northward
by Aguinaldo. The topography Of the
country has been studied carefully, and
the officials claim that while there will
be some unprotected mountain passes,
none OF them is available for heavy
transportation
As soon as Gen. Wheaton shall have
landed it is expected that he will ex-
tend his force southwark to join with
Gen. Lawton's force, now preparing to
move southwark from Cabanatuan.
When this junction shall have been
effected, Gen. Macarthur will begin
his advance from the vicinity Of An
geles, sweeping the insurgents toward
the line formed by the troops of
Wheaton and Lawton.
Sundays capture Of Magalang
Strengthened Gen. MacArthur's line
preparatory to the general advance.
Two columns were formed from the
Seventeenth infantry, one Of them I'M
der Col. Smith and the other under
Major O'Brien. These fought the most
effective engagement that has occurred
for some months. The total loss Of the
Americans was eleven wounded. Ma
jor O'Brien's column killed forty-eight
insurgents, wounded many more and
captured over twenty-eight prisoners
and fourteen rifles. Col. Smiths col
umn killed and wounded over 100 in
surgents and captured fifty more, TAX
ing also number of bullock wagons,
used for transporting the supplies OF
the rebel army. The enemy in this
engagement numbered about 1000.
The situation here appears far more
hopeful than it has for some months.
The publication in Manila of the report
of the Philippines commission, recent
ly made public in Washington, leaves
the insurgents nothing to hope for
from that source. Also the prospect
Cor an aggressive movement and the
pressing Of hostilities by a greatly in
creased American force throughout the
long period of dry weather, which is
now about to begin, is undoubtedly
weakening the determination of the
insurgents to make resistance indefi-
nitely.

y Masnificcnt Arch to he Built in
New York.

NEW IOrks
When Dewey reaches New York in
October he will find amons the many
decorations in his honor IL triumplal arch
and colonnade at Fifth avenue and
Twcnty-fourth street. 1t will require the
work of twenty or thirty sculptors for
several weeks to complete the work and
enough have volunteered to make certain
the erection of the arch. They will work
gratis. Were they to charge at the pro-
fcssional rate, the arch would cost $780,
900: as it is only the material will have
to be- paid for-which means $4,000.
The material will he %''staff.' like the
peristylc at the Chicago Worlds Fair.
The arch is to be on the general lines
of the Arch of Titus, but. having in ef-
feet four piers instead OF two, the long
piers being pierced through the sides. At
one end of the %colonnade subsidiary
sculptural groups representing the army
and the nav are to be placed, and ut
the other end similar groups representa-
tive of the East and West Indies. These.
emphasizing the c%olonnadc, will only en-
nance the effect of the arch itself, at
which the main sculptural adornmcnt
will he focused or concentrated. The
enrichment of the arch is to symbolic
Americas power as IL maritime nation
and New York's Importance as the coun-
try's commercial center.
The four piers. which will be formed
by the piercing of the great piers, are to
