uated penalty for overdue taxes, Sena

The main road to the village was lined
by native huts full Of Filipino sharp.
shooters. After they had been firing
upon General King and his staff, killing
driver and firing on an ambulance Of
the Red Cross society, Colonel Duboce
ordered the huts to be cleared and

SOME FURTHER DETAILS

The Battle With Filipinos Lasted About
Twenty Hours.
MANILA, Feb. lowing to the area
embraced in the scene of Sundays, en-
gagement, se1ni-circle Of fully II
miles. details regarding the fighting have
been extremely difficult to obtain.
The first shot from the American SEN
try was evidently accepted as prear-
ranged signal, for it Was followed al
most Immediately by terrific fusilade
along the entire Filipino line on the
north side Of the Pasig river
The American outposts returned the
fire with such vigor that the Filipino
fire was checked until the arrival Of re-
Inducements.
At 10 o'clock the firing was resumed,
the American firing line consisting of
the Third Artillery, the Kansas, South
Dakota, Colorado and Montana regi-
ments, the Pennsylvanians, the Nebras-
kans. the Utah battery, the Idshos, the
Washingtons, the Californians, the
Fourth cavalry. North Dakota volun-
teers, Sixth artillery and Fourteenth
infantry,
Concentrate Their Farces.
The Filipinos concentrated their
forces at three points, Caloocan, Santa
Mesa and Galingalan, and maintained
an intermittent fusilade for some hours.
They brought artillery into action at
Galingalan at 1920, but only one gun
annoyed the Americans to any appreci-
able extent, howltzer on the road be-
You'd Santa Mesa. The Third artillery
silenccd the Galingalan battery by fir
ing two guns simultaneously, which was
followed Immediately by volleys from
the infantry.
About midnight there was a lull in
the firing, lasting until 3:45 d. M, when
the whole Filipino line reopened fire.
The Americans poured terrific fire
into the darkness for 20 minutes, and
then there was another lull until day
light, when the Americans generally
advanced.
Sllclled by the Charleston and Concord.
During the night, in response to Ad-
miral Devey's signals flashed across
from CaVite, the United States cruiser
Charleston and the gunboat Concord,
stationed at Malatabon, poured deadly
fire from their secondary batteries into
the Filipino line at Caloocan.
After daylight the United States
double-tu1ret seagoing monitor Monad-
mock opened fire off Malate and kept
Smelling the Filipinos' left flank, while
the other vessels shelled the right flank
for several hours.
By o'clock the Americans had APP
parently completely routed the enemy
and had taken the villages Of Palaw-
pong. Santa Mesh, Paco, Santana, San
Pedro, Macorta. Pandocan and Pasai,
had destroyed hundreds Of native huts
! and had secured possession of the water
main reservoirs, "a distance OF over six
miles.

PADEREWSKI.

Is somewhat older than he. The rumor
Of his engagement to New York
woman was so persistently reported
three years ago that her father had to
make a formal denial of it, says the
New York Sun.
AS a matter of fact, the acquaintance
between the two was slight. The pian-
list has little more taste for society
than the average musician Of his en-
inence. His only appearances in that
way during the recent visit to LONDON
were in the drawing room of a man OF
wealth, when he received $4,000 for MS
contribution to the program of musl-
Gale and at the farm of titled agricul-
turist.
He is more interested in agriculture
than in anything else save his profess
sion. One of the mistaken reports con-
corning his American tour is the state
ment that he is to receive S25O,OOO from
a manager here for 40 concerts. Ever
since his first tour here the pianist has
come on his own responsibility, ana
will continue to do so in the future.
Paderewski Is now at his Poland es-
tate. He was hastily summoned there
by his lawyer as consequence OF the
defalcations Of one of his principal
clerks. whose books show deficit OF
several thousand pounds.

flag she would have to accept the re-
sponsibilities of a man. After 70 min
utes had elapsed the Sultana and her
guard appeared before the consulate.
She made an attempt to cut down the
Flagstaff. He warned her to desist, but
she hurled back at him an Arabic de-
fiance. The Judge says he lifted MS
gun and fired, and the Sultana received
in the fieshy part Of her body about ~
bird shot.
She was carried back to her palace,
and it was found that she was not
seriously wounded, as the thickness OF
her toga had made the perforations
scarcely skin deep. 1t was decreed that
the Judge should be Immediately taken
out and shot. He barricaded the con-
sulate, and single-handed and alone
resisted an attack successfully. Suisse
quently explanations ensued, and a
commission was sent to Zanzibar to
make a thorough investigation OF the
occurrence. Through the exercise OF
a little diplomacy the difficulties were
overcome.

CTATUE OF GEN. ARTHUR.

The statue of the late President
Chester A. Arthur, which has just been
unveiled in New York, is one OF the
best creations of Sculptor George T..
Bissell. The monument Is, in its ex-
treme measurement, seventeen rect
eight inches high. The bronze figure
itself is nine feet high. Mr.. Bissell
portrays Arthur standing and in an at
titude as If he were about to begin
speech. Behind the figure is Greek
chair, from which the president has
apparently just arisen. Over one arm
of the chair is drapery suggesting
the toga which, as president OF the
senate, Mr.. Arthur might have worn.
The pedestal is of gray marble highly
polished and devoid Of ornament save
for bronze wreaths on the sides. On
the front block is this inscription:
Chester Alan Arthur, Twenty-1rst
President of the United States OF
America" The donors of the nonu-
ment are eminent New York citizens,
among whom are Cornelius Bliss and
Levi p. Morton. The statue is at the
northeast corner of Madison Square,
and faces south. The pedestal was de-
signed by James Brown Lord. The
dedication Tuesday was attended by
large number of persons, including
Mrs. John E. McElroy, sister OF
President Arthur, who presided at the
White House during his term; Gen.
and Mrs. Howard Carroll, Miss Masten,
President Arthurs niece; former
Mayor William L. Strong, Gen. G. II.
Sharpe, Charles E. Tiffany, Warner
Miller, Elihu Root, Cornelius N. Bliss
and George'W Lyons. Mr.. Bliss pre-
sided. The statue was formally pre-
sented to the city by Mr.. Root. who
made an eloquent address eulogistic OF
President Arthur. At the conclusion
of the address all in the inclosure
arose, McElroy unveiled the statue by
