Army In the Philippines.

Manila. June 17.-After cutting the
railroad and telegraph at Apalit, seven
miles south, for the purpose of severing
connection, the rebels attacked Gen.
MacArthur's lines at San Fernando at
4:S0 Yesterday morning. They met with
an unexpectedly warm reception and
were repulsed with loss of 10 killed,
so prisoners and many wounded. The
rebel force, estimated to have num-
bered 5000 men, advanced stealthily
from the jungle north of the city and
then divided, with the evident purpose
of surrounding the Americans.
The outposts of the Iowa regiment
discovered the enemy and retired to
their lines, where the entire division
awaited in an intrenched position
The Iowa regiment and the Kansas
regiment received the first shock of
the attack. Reserving their fire until
the enemy was within 600 yards, the
first volley of the Americans hit the
rebels, who returned the fire wildly,
the rest of their line failing to advance

Outlook Favorable for a Resumption
of Work in Colorado Shelters.
THE EIGHT HOUR SHIFTS CONCEDED.
The Statement OF a Prominent Mining
Man Concerning the Smelter Trust
An Agreement at the Anti
Trust Plant.

Denver, Col, June 17.-The outlook
is favorable for an early resumption of
work at the trpst smelters, which have
been shut down since Wednesday,
bringing enforced idleness to thou
sands of miners and railroad employees
and threatening incalculable damage
to all the industries of the state. Steps
have been taken which will probably
lead to a conference between James
Il. Grant, chairman of the operating
committee of the American Smelling
and Refining company, and committee
composed of the Smeltermens union.
The employees, it is believed, will insist
only that eight-hour shifts shall be
granted. Mr.. Grant has said that he
will agree to this. He has also eX-
pressed willingness to pay the wages
that are being paid at the Argo smell
ter TO adjust rates according to the
varying conditions at the different
trust smelters would require consider
able study, but if the men recede from
their demand for ten and II hours pay
for eight hours work there win be
nothing in the way of speedy and
satisfactory settlement of the trouble.
Over 600 miners employed at the Colo
RADIO Fuel and Iron company's coal
mines in the Trinidad district have
struck for ten hours pay for eight
hours work. The railroads have
begun laying off train crews on ac-
count of the falling off in ore ship
ments.
\ prominent mining man who has
had close dealings with the smelter
trust said:
The eght-hour law and demand Of the men
for fair days wages under the law is exactly
what the trust wanted. Part of its plan when
the consolidation was effected was to shut down
several Of the shelters ana consolidate their in
terests in each smelter city in one smelter. II

wants to dispense with two mHnug emcntS in
each OF the Colorado cities 1t wants but one
roasting department, one samplng department,

that as much ore as is now being treated in two
smelters may be treated in one at less than

AGREEMENT AT THE ANTITRUST PLANT.
Pueblo, Col. June l7.-Final adjust
ment of wages at the Philadelphia
smelter, the Guggenheim antitrust
plant. was effected last night, the men
accepting the scale of the company
with the exception that the lower class
OF labor will be paid 81. 40 per day in
stead of Sl,32. as offered by the com
pany. The company expects to be in
| full operation in all departments with
1,200 men by June 20. There is nc

DIXON'S EASY TASK.
Defeated Sam BOIan In Three
Rounds at Louisville.

LOUISVILLE. Ky, July 3.-George
Dixon, champion featherweight picked
up a little easy money here tonight on
his way to Denver. He got the decision
after three lively rounds with Sam Bo-
Ian, of New York, before the Nonpareil
Athletic association. Bolan was pracu-
cally out when the round was concluded.
The bout was to have gone twenty-five
rounds, and a good crowd gathered at
Music hall to witness it. Dixon went
right after his man In the first round,
but Bolan held his own. The second saw
some warm fighting and the beginning
of the end of the New Yorker. Dixon
opened up in lively fashion and soon had
Bolan going. A left swing sent Sam to
the floor, and he stayed down nine sec
onds The rest did him little good, how
ever, for he came up groggy in the third,
and George set about to finish him. After
a few moments of fiddling to get his
bearings the colored boy sent in a hot
right and left on the jaw and Bolan col
lapsed. He again took his full time to
rise. and then came up with a pro-
nounced stagger. Dixon was waiting.
and a neat swing on the jaw with his
left was all that was necessary to put
an end to the bout. Bolan went down
in a heap, but the gong sounded before
the limit was counted. The New Yorker
was out of it, however, and the referee
gave the bout to Dixon.

There is q strong resemblance between
the two hulls, the ColuInbia's fin keel Is

probable that the latter's sail area will
