Kansas Troops Caught In Jungle
Lieut.. Afford, Co. 1, 20th Kansas in
fantry, and private of that company
were killed, and six other members of the
regiment were wounded near Calvocan
Monday evening while accommodating.
The party was in a jungle, when ii was at
tackled by the enemy. Two companies of
the Kansas regiment were sent to the re-
lief of their comrades aud drove the Fill
pinos into Calvocan, penetrating TO the
very heart of the town. Meanwhile the
gunboats shelled the suburbs. Gen. Otis
finally recalled the troops, but the natives,
Misunderstanding the retreat, failed TO
take advantage of it. The outskirts OF the
town were burned.
VIII Attack IloIlo.
A forward movement is probable at
lloilo, where Gen. Miller has been for
weeks, lying I'm front of the town in his
transports. He has never had any doubt
of his ability to take the place whenever
he got the word, but there has been a re-
straning influence from Washington,
based in part on the hope that the insur-
gents could be brought TO q peaceful retire
ment from the town, and an apprehension
that an effort TO force a landing might re-
suit in serious injury to foreign interests.
Now, however, it is felt that the latter are
perhaps more in jeopardy from contin-
uance of the existing state OF affairs than
they would be through a rapid seizure of
the town. Gen. Miller has with him the
18th infantry and battalion of artillery,
and it is likely that he will be strongly re-
inforced before the attempt is made to
take IloilO. Naval officers have watched
with pride the achievements of the naval
vessels during the recent fighting, and
they were gratifed when Secretary Long
yesterday afternoon sent a cablegram con.
graduating Rear-Admiral Dewey.
AgOneIIIo In Canada.
Felipe Agoncillo, Aguinaldo's agent in
this country, left Washington Sunday and
went directly to Montreal. He was inter
viewed at New York and in Troy. He
said that he had received no news regard
ing the fighting at Manila, and claimed
that lie was going to Montreal because the
authorities at Washington would not allow
him to send dispatches to Aguinaldo.
Some of the Congressman in Washington
claim that AgoncilO had advised an attack
upon the Americans, but this is hardly
possible, as the cable at Manila is in the
hands of the Americans, and there is
strict press censorship. The few members
of the Filipino junta in Washington who
remained after Agoncillo's departure have
been closely watched, but none of them
have been arrested.

Aguinaldo Sues for Peace.

Prevails at Manila.

Gen. Otis Says the Power of the Insure
gent Leader is Gone and That order
Prevails at Manila.
Practically all the news from Manila
Wednesday is summarized in this despatch
from Gen Otis: The situation is rapidly
improving. A reconnaissance east to south
several miles to Laguuade Bay and south
east is driving the struggling insurgent
troops in various directions, apd encoun-
tering no decided opposition. The army
has disintergrated and the natives have re-
turned to the villages, displaying flag.
Near Caloocan, six miles north, the en-
envy made a stand behind the entrench-
ments charged by the Kansas troops, led
by Col. Funston, close encounter result
ing in the rout of the enemy with heavy
loss Tie loss 10 the Kansas regiment
was Lieut.. Alfred killed and six wounded.
On the fourth Agulnaldo issued a flying
proclamation charging the Americans with
the initiative and declared war, and on Sun
day issued another calling all to resist a
foreign invasion. His influence through
out this section is destroyed and he now
applies for cessation of hostilities and
conference bu: we have declined to answer.
The insurgents expectation of rising in
the city on the night of the fourth was un-
realized. The provost marshal general
with his admirable disposition of the troops
defeated every attempt. The city is quiet
and business has been resumed The ma
tives are respectful and cheerful. The
lighting qualities of the American troops
was revelation to all the inhabitants.
