sence of Gov. Fosters Report.
Count Vinci, the Italian charge d'affaires
again visited the State Department today,
concerning the Italian lynchings in Louis
lana. There We're no developments, hog
ever, as Governor Fosters report had hoo
been received by the department. nor had
Count Finci received from the Italian con-
sular officials a detailed account of the af-
fair. There were renewed assurances by
our officials that every effort would be
made toward a thorough inquiry into the
tragedies and care has been taken that
the Italian officials who have gone to the
scene to pursue their Investigations shall
receive the fullest protection from any DOS
sible indignity arising out of excitement
and race feeling aroused by the lynchings
1t is thought that the report from the
governor and from the Italian officials may
not be in hand for some time, and that in
consequence any action by the two govern
ments will be put off until this data Is
received.

Supported by Cuban Officers
The action of the meeting of Cuban vet
Grams is regarded as affording confirmation
of the belief that manifestoes recently
issued had behind them the support of
number of former Cuban officers.
The Cuban census commissioners recently
appointed were criticised speakers saying
that they we're mere nonentitieS and un
known men. in whose work the public
would have no confidence, and that a
sus so taken WOULD be unacceptable to the
Cubans. Gen. Andrade said the United

will never be united in it's favor What
is democracy? Bimetallism. By this l
mean the equal and concurrent use of both
of the money metals as a basis for our
financial structure. MINIS are not abso-

Coin is not favorite medium as an ex-

perhaps the coming Congress will catch
the drift of public sentiment and pass such
measures as will grant to the Philippine
Islands independence as soon as a suitable
form of government can be arranged In
that event one phase of the coming cam

they are too well known to need restating
My position on this subject is quite
verely criticised, though I have a number
of letters from prominent men indorsing

a gold standard is not democracy 1t never

fication of the peace treaty with Spain. the
subject of the relations Of this country to
the Philippine islands undoubtedly will be
the uppermost topic in the Senate during
the week. The hostile demonstration of the

Senate which had grown out of the con-
troversy over the treaty. and which was
at almost fever heat. on this account il

Account of the Fight.

MANILA, Feb. D. SIS p. m.-The long-ex-
pected rupture between the Americans and
the Filipinos has come at last The former
are now engaged in solving the Philippine
problem with the utmost expedition pos
sible. The clash came at $40 yesterday
evening, when three daring Filipinos darted
past the Nebraska regiments pickets at
Santa Mesa, but retired when challenged.
They repeated the experiment without
drawing the sentry's fire. But the third
time Corporal Greely challenged the Fill
pinos and then fired. killing one of them and
wounding another.
Almost Immediately afterwards the Fill
pinos line, from Calvocan to Santa Mesa.
commenced a fusillade which was ineffec-
tual. The Nebraska, Montana and North
Dakota outposts replied vigorously and held
their ground until reinforcements arrived.
The Filipinos in the meantime concentrated
at three points, Calvocan, Gagalangin and
Santa Mesa.
AT about o'clock the Filipinos opened a
N@CN 80 ~ASAA al NAAC CO BldCSS simultaneous
ly. This was supplemented by the fire Of
two siege guns at Balik-BaIik and by ad-
vancing their skirmishers at Paco and Pan
dacan. The Americans responded with a
terrific fire. but owing to the darkness they
were unable to determine its effect The
Utah Light Artillery finally succeeded in
siencing the native battery. The Third
Artillery also did good work on the extreme
left The engagement lasted over an hour.
The United States cruiser Charleston and
the gunbost Concord, stationed off Mala-
bona, opened fire from their secondary bat
teries on the Filipinos position at Calvocan.
and kept 1t up vigorously. At 2:45 there was
another fusillade along the entire line. and
the United States double-turret monitor
Monadnock opened fire on the enemy from
off Malate. With daylight the Americans
advanced. The California and Washington
regiments made a splendid charge and drove
the Filipinos from the villages of Paco and
Santa Mesa. The Nebraska regiment also
distinguished itself, capturing several pris-
Oners and one howitzer and "a very strong
position at the reservoir, which is connected
with the water works The Kansas and
Dakota regiments compelled the enemy's
right flank to retire to Calvocan. There was
intermittent firing at various points all day
long.
The losses of the Filipinos cannot be es-
timated at present but they are known to
be considerable. The American losses are
estimated at twenty men killed and l25
wounded The Ygorates. armed with bows
and arrows, made very determined stand
in the face Of hot artillery fire. and left
many men dead on the field Several at
tempts were made in this city yesterday
evening to assassinate American officers.
MANILA, Feb. 6. 0 a. m.-The Filipinos
have apparently reached the conclusion that
the Americans mean business. now that the
barriers are removed, as there were no
further hostilities last night and no attempt
was made 70 recover the lost ground. Il IL
possible. however, that they are following
