BY A SAILOR WHO SAW IT
Fighting Still in Progress Between inc HiIied British and Americans and inc Forces of Mataafa Who Is Courfing an investigation Pre- Ceded by an ArmiSfice and a Rest.
E.LgENiFTEi =

San Francisco, May 5.-The steamer weeks ago for Australia via Honolulu and Apia, had as passengers from Apia for Australia two active partiei- pants in the fight which took place near Apia several weeks ago, in which Lieutenant Lansdale and Ensign Monaghan lost their lives. They were marine corporal, Harry Hunt, and marine, John Foxworthy of the British warship Porpoise, both hav- ing been wounded n the battle.
 The case of Hunt is especially note worthy, as he was the man who re- mained with Lansdale and Monaghan on the field of battle after the retreat been wounded and Monaghan had gone to his aid and the two were cut off from the rest of the party. Hunt, seeing their plight, left the ranks and ran to their assistance. In the fight Lansdale and Monaghan were killed and Hunt was struck down by a blow with a club. In a quarrel over the possession of his arms, Hunt man aged to get on his feet and a blow from an axe intended to decapitate him, fell short, but cut off one of his ears He afterwards reached the brush and was almost dead from loss of blood when rescued by his com rades. The wounded men were sent to Auckland for medical treatment.

THE FIGHTING OF THURSDAY.
 Manila, May 5.-Detailed reports of the work of General Lawtons expedi- tion show that harder fighting had taken place during the early part of this week than the earlier accounts indicated. In the attack upon San Rafael the American forces were met by heavy fire from a large force of rebels concealed in the jungle. Cnly the adcpt:;cn Of tactics followed in In- dian fighting in the United States, every man for himself, saved the di- vision from great loss. General Law ten, as usual, was at the head of the line with his staff. Scott's battery demolished a stone fronted trench at short range.
 The insurgent leaders, Gregorio and Pic del Pillar, who had 500 men in Baliug. retreated when General Law ton approached the town. Chief of Scouts Young, with f1fty-five men. en- tered PaEug at the head of the army and rang bells to announce the occu- patton of the city. General Law'ton outside of Raliug saw women and children in the rebel trenches and sent Captain Case in advance with white flag to warn the insurgents to remove the Itn-ccm batants.
 When within 800 yards of the trench two volleys were fired at Captain Cases party. Chief of Scouts Young. whose bravery at Baliug was most no- table, served as an Indian scout under General O. o. Howard in his campaign in the northwest in 1876. The work of Young's scouts was. the feature Of the expedition.

TTUe Reform Needed.

The Carolina Spartan we'll and tru.
ly says thai the, Peniteptiary investi-
CATION brings shame to the whole State.
1t is a low motive which prompts any
one to rejoice over the mismanage-
msnt of Col. Neal II was 80 close to
embez.lement tha, th4 disgrace is the
eame ~ if it had been palpable and
positive stealing. There are some i'm.
portsnt lessons TO be learned from
this shameful afflir
The people should learn to pnt lit
tie confidence in any man or faction
who raises the cry of "stop thief"
Often those who cry loude,t are the
real culPrits. Turning the rascals
cut" is good and healthtul proceed.
ing. but when that is done and bigger
rascals are let. ia the condition of the
people grows worse and worse. 1t is
like casting out one Devil and permit.
ting seven others. more vicious and
destructive. to enter in and take dog
session.
The voters, honest, intelligent and
fair rs most of them are, might learn
another lesson. He who cries RE
form" loudest is often a ,li,icsl
mouhtebauk. D. or light. headed hypo.
crit, who thinks he can fool the peo.
pie into voting for him or his faction.
When big voiced, small Drained man
mounts high stump aud smites cn
his breast and proclaims himself the
great friend of the laboring nan and
the eternal enemy of trusts, corpora,
t'ons and monied class, set him down
as first!clsss political fraud. Look
more to the character. the lives, the
standing of public men than their
windy declarations.
1t is : good time, this off year, when
there ara, no candidates asking f,r
votes, to take ones bearings aud see
where the old ship of State is drifting
and consider what sort of men are
standing at the helm. Recent events
in our State history show that the old
vessel has had some rough waters to
pass over and that those in charge
were not worthy officers.
A-other lesson is this: True reform
must be made at the ballot box. 1t
ia the man behind the vote that does
the best work. The candidate,
abounding in wind and full of prom.
ises, never did reform anything except
his own pocket. He may have done
that we'll, but that is all.
