occurred during the engagement The
Washingtons and Idahos and Com

made charges across the rice fields be-

about the Canadian constitution. He
has asked a good many of similar
nature today. He inquired of all his
visitors as to whether they prefer to

has not yet the news he protested to

By / o'clock the Americans had APP

and had taken the villages of Palaw-

had destroyed hundreds of native huts,
and had secured possession of the wa

The Tennessees Joined the firing line
at 10 o'clock on Sunday morning and
assisted in capturing Santa Mesa.
One of the most notable events of
Sundays work was driving the Fill
pinos out of their stronghold at Pace
by the reServe-a few companies of
Californians commanded by Col. Du-
boce. The main road to the village
was lined by native huts full of Fill
Pine Sharpshooters. After they had
been firing upon Gen. King and his
staff, killing a driver and firing on an
ambulance of the Red Cross society,
Col. Duboce ordered the huts to be
cleared and burned. The Filipinos con-
centrated into Pace church and con-
vent. where they made a determined
stand in the upper stories. A platoon
of CalifornianS. stationed on a neigh
boring bridge, maintained hot fire
on the Filipinos. but was unable to dis
lodge them. In the face of a terrific
fusillade, Col. Duboce and a few vol
unteers dashed into the church, scat
tered coal oil inside of it, set fire to the
oil, and retired. In the meantime, Capt.
Overs battery of the Sixth artillery
bombarded the church., dropping a
dozen shells into the tower and roof.

Both sides cheered frequently during
the engagement. The American "hur-

risive "vivas" Among the natives

rattle of musketry and the booming
of cannon outside the city was plainly
heard. The residents of the outskirts
of Manila f1ocked into the walled city

the carriages disappeared as if by
magic, the street cars were stopped,
the telegraph lines were cut, and the
soldiers shurriedly. but silently, march

MANILA. Feb. 6.-Owing to the area
embraced in the scene Of Sundays en-
gagement, a semi-circle of fully seven
teen miles, details regarding fighting
have been extremely difficult to obtain.
So far as can be gathered the brush
commenced at S:45 Saturday evening by
the firing of a Nebraska sentry at
Santa Mesa upon Filipinos who were
deliberately crossing the line, after re-
peated warnings, with the evident pur-
pose of drawing fire.
The first shot from the American
sentry was evidently accepted as pre-
arranged signal, for it was followed
almost Immediately by a terrific fusi-
laGe along the entire Filipino line on
the north side of the Pasig river The
American outposts returned the fire
With such vigor that the Filipino fire
was checked until the arrival of re-en-
fOrcementS. All the troops in the VI
cirity were hurried out, and the Fill
pinos ceased firing for half an hour
while their own reinforcementS came
up.
At 10 o'clock the firing was resumed
the American firing line consisting of
- the Third artillery, the Kansas and
Montana regiments, the Minnesota reg
iment. the Pennsylvania, the Nebras-
kans. the Utah battery, the Idahos,
the Washington, the Californians, the
Fourth cavalry, North Dakota volun
tcers Sixth artillery and Fourteenth
infantry.
The Filipinos concentrated their fore
es at three points. Calocan, Santa
Mesa and Galingalan, and maintained
an intermittent fusilade for some
hours. They brought artillery into ac-
ton at Galingalan at 10:30 but only
ore gun annoyed the Americans to any
appreciable extent, a hoWitzer on the
road beyond Santa Mesa. The Third
artillery silenced the Galingalan bat
terry by firing two guns Simultaneous
ly,- which was followed Immediately by
volleys from the infantry.
About midnight there was a lull in
the firing, lasting until :45 a. M, when
the whole Filipino line reopened fire
The Americans poured terrific fire
into the darkness for twenty minutes
and then there was another lull until
daylight; when the Americans general
~ advanced.

ington I knew the friends of the treaty
lacked two votes of the number neces-

why the affair of Saturday surprised
me was that I had sent the news to

look at it the, more I am convinced
