Washington, d. c., February 6.-The
important news In Washington was the
receipt OF lists Of casualties from GEN
eral Otis.
Prompted by General Otis promise Of
last night TO send along the list Of
casualties at the earliest possible
moment, the friends OF the soldiers at
Manila besieged the war Departments
today BY telegram and word Of mouth
for information from the scene OF the
battle In the Philippines. The list was
long In coming, q fact explained by the
cutting Of the telegraph wires along the
American 'front.' which prevented early
reports from the division commanders.
In the meantime came a cablegram
from Admiral Dewey that caused some
commotion by creating the
that hostililies had been
renewed by the insurgents. Up to the
close Of Office hours. however, nothing
had come from General Otis to confirm
this inference, and such cablegrams as
did come from him touched upon other
matters entirely, so 1t was assumed that
there was no foundation in fact for the
apprehension.
When General Otis casualty list
began to come over the cables they were
confusing, probably due to
the fact that there are nineteen different
lines between Manila and Washington.
The immediate effect was to cause some
errors to be made in the reported list of
