MANILA, Dc:. 2S.-Colonel Lockett,
with forco of 1900, including artillery,
attacked n strong force of insurgents
9ntrenched i'll the mountains pear Mon.
talban, about five miles northeast Of San
Mateo. The enemy was completely
routed, the Americans pursuing them
through the hills, amid which they fed
IN every direction.
-Four Americans were wounded. The
Filipino loss was large, resulting from a
heavy infantry and artillery fire for
about three hours into the trenches.
1t was supposed that the insurgents
were those who were driven out of San
Mateo on the day General Lawton was
Killed. They numbered probably 1000.
a dozen lines of lnsurgent trenches
covered the steep trail through the hills
and likewise the valley below, along
which the Americans passed. Tho
main attacking party consisted OF the
Forty-sixth volunteers, troop of cav.
airy and artillery, Colonel Lockett com.
manding in person. The rest of the
command operated from remote points
in an endeavor to carry out Colonel
Lockett's plan of throwing his lines
around the enemy aud thus cutting of
retreat
The nature of the mountainous coun.
sry made it impracticable to execute
This movement successfully.
After tho insurgents began to run
there was n vain attempt to use artIl,
cry.
1t now appears that one American
vas killed III tho attack upon the Subig
garrison by General santa Ana.

OHIO RAILWAY COMBINE.
Hooking Valley aud Ohio
Central Deal.


COLUMBUS, Dec. "a statement
prepared in the office of President Mon.
sarrat of the Hooking Valley railroad,
who represents the Morgan interests OF
New York, was given to the public. 1t
was in part as follows:
''It is stated that large holders of
stock OF the Hooking Valley Railway
company, including some who are also
interested IN the securities of other
railroads. notably the Chesapeake and
Ohio and the Erie. have acquired con-
trolling interest in the stock of the To-
ledo and Ohio Central railway COM
pany. Through an arrangement made
with the majority stockholders of the
Toledo and Ohio Central, the minority
stockholders of that company will be
given an opportunity, if they desire, of
selling the holdings on precisely the
same terms as those accepted by the
mojority holders.
"The two properties will not be con.
solidated. They will be operated sepa.
rately and separate corporate organiza-
tions will be maintained, but naturally
as % result of the transaction harmony
and economy in operation will be arrived
at, and, while they will continue MS
rivals in business, Illegal discrimination
will undoubtedly be obviated."
The general passenger agents of the
docking Valley and Ohio Central roads
have already been instructed to end the
rate cutting.
From other sources it was understood
that the Columbus, SanduslSy and
Hooking is included in the deal.

"You will doubtless remember the

suffered at their hands determined If
possible to recnpture their stolen cat

expedition.
'The story Of how the 'rustlers' coop
ed them up and how the latter were
finally arrested. after a fight Of several
days. and spent some months in jail

connection with the fight the other day
that struck me as rather amusing. 1t
seems that young Englishman was
visiting one Of the ranches. but he had
declined to take part in the expedition
on the ground that he had no stake In
the game. He was persuaded, how
ever, and finally went along but with
the distinct understanding that IL he
wanted to return home at any time
he was to be allowed to do so. When
