Burning BRIDGES.

MANILA, March 2S-General Nc
Arthur's advance today was short. His
troops marched two miles when halt
was called at the river where the
enemy had burned the bridges behind
them. General Macarthur decided to
bivouac and wait his pontoon bridges
and supplies before crossing. The
enemy who were plainly in sight are
being largely reinforced from the
north.
They are digging trenches and have
evidently determined to make another
stand before retiring to Malolos, their
capital. This will probably delay the
capture of Malolos dav or two. In
the fight at Mariloa yesterday 80 insur.

Hampton though he has now passed the

blessed with excellent health and en-
joys much of his old time dash and
courage, as was shown by the charac-

since. It was early Sunday morning
when one of the servants of the Hamp-
ton household came to him
and told him that sparks had
fallen upon and ignited the
roof of the house, which
was then burning. The old general,
without permitting any of the family
to be awakened, fastened out himself
and, despite the handicap of cork leg,
proceeded to climb out eupon the roof.

WILL End THE WAR
Filipino Prisoners Say That
AguinaIdo Will Give Up
the Rebellion If De-
featod There.

MANILA, March 2S.-General Nc
Arthnr's division which captured
Marielao yesterday after hard fight
took up an advance from that place
toward Malolos at $50 this morning.
The Immediate objective point was the
town of Bocave some five miles north
of Marielao. General McArthur's ad
vance guard has reached the vicinity
of Bulocan six miles southeast of Ma
lolos. The army gunboats shelled the
rebel positions at Bulocan yesterday
and did effective work.
McArthur's forces rested the great
er part of yesterday. This was neces-
sary after three days almost continual
fighting. The men took up the ad-
vance today with renewed vigor and in
prime condition for final conflict at
Mslolos. Tne Filipino prisoners taken
yesterday informed the Americans
that Aguinaldo would make his last
grand stand at Malolos and if he was
defeated there would make no further
resistance but quit the revolution.
Since the general northern move
ment against the insurgents began full
ly 80 towns have been captured and
burned. The country from Bulocan to
Malolos is open and affords little op-
portunity for the rebels to find lurking
places from which to attack our men.
This will make the march from Bulo-
can to Malolos comparatively an easy
one. It is expected that General Nc
Arthur will be in front of Malolos this
afternoon or evening.
The big battle will probably be
begun early tomorrow morning, The
night hospital train which reached
Manila this morning brought in ten
killed, and sixty-two wounded men
from the lines in the north.
