ISOLATION to think that as in Crete the

The Insurgents Not Able to Withstand
MacArthur's Advance.
Manila, March 20 wednesday,, 10
p. m-After a couple Of hours of rest,
General MacArthur's division pushed
on across rice fields and rivers, through
the jungle, without meeting any oppo-
sition. the enemy flying from the viii
lagos of Taal, ITcat and Bigaa, after
burning them. Even the town of Bula-
can, the capital OF the province was
burned and abandoned. although Gen
eral Macarthur passed seven miles to
the right.
At O'Clock the enemy made stand
in trenches half a mile beyond Gui-
guinto station, at a river crossing. The
Kansas and Pennsylvania regiments
Immediately deployed, crossing the rail-
road bridge under a heavy fire, and at
tackled the enemy's position. The rebels
withstood the musketry fire for half an
hour, but the artillery Disconnected
them. AT the end of a 45-minute fight
the insurgents bolted toward the hills.
Our loss was two killed and 20 wound

who desire places as officers. There are
already many applications on file, and
not only men who served with the state
troops, but those who served in staff
positions and have been mustered out
are anxious to enter the service again.
The authoritative announcement has
been made that the president will not
organize this provisional army unless
it is needed. So far there is no demand
from General Otis for more troops than
are now on their way to Manila. His
last call was for three batteries of light
artillery. These were placed at once
under orders for Manila and are on
their way to San Francisco. They will
sail about the 10Th cf April. Those who
insist that the provisional army must
be- organized say that they have infor-
nation from the Philippines which in
dicates that volunteer army cannot
be enlisted for six months as provided
for in the bill, from the volunteers who
will be mustered out when the ratifica-
tions of peace are exchanged. 1t is
claimed that these volunteers will de-
mand transportation home at once and
that there will NOT be enough regulars
in the Philippines to carry on the war
with the Filipinos.
Adjutant General Corbin says that
information received direct from Gen
eral Otis is to the effect that the volun-
teer troops now in the Philippines have
demonstrated against being sent home
while the active operations are in
progress. General Otis said that the
volunteers had patriotically declined to
take advantage of that privilege and
has expressed the desire to continue in
service as long as there was any fight
ing to be done. He added that they
were in excellent health and spirits
and were rendering most effective
service.

partment in regard to the regiments

mentioned to the president either by
Acting Secretary of War Meiklejohn or
Adjutant General Corbin. There is no
intention to bring forward this ques-
stion at the present time, as with the
troops already ordered to Manila and
which it will take some months to
transport thither. General Otis has
all the forces necessary to accom-

cruiser Tauranga arrived here on

nation is to annex the Tonga islands,
it shall be England. The captain of the

said he had accomplished his mission
successfully and that the German Incl

claims being tritiing except as to the
right to a coaling station in the Island

German consul intends to proceed even

At the same time the lst Montana
