worked by British subjects. was largely
instrumental in extinguishing the fire.
The Americans intcrfered with the ma
tive salvasers, and tried to capture the
engine, leading to u conflict. Harsh
conduct elsewhere lead to general fight
ing. The Americans retired to the
walled city. md the fleet bombarded
the suburbs. believing the city was en-

On the other hand, the Flllpinos were
continuously reinforced, and the Ameri-
cans closed the Puente de Espana to
prevent the F'iliplnos from invading the
city. The Americans then fired on every
one standlnS at the doors and win
dows. and thus killed the engineer and
manager Of the Andrews cotton mill.
The foreigners applied to the foreign
ships for help, and number OF mar
ines were TO be landed, when Admiral

PARIS, Feb. 2S.-The Rappel and 9th
er papers state that the papers Of the

list plot, which had been aided bv sub
scriptions By certain foreign sovereigns
The plot was to be carried out By gem

become minister for war.
The Orleanis,s intended to act MS soon
