ATTACKED IN THE RnAR.
Friendly Filiplnas Make Trecherous
Assault Upon Americans.

Washington, June 2l--The following
dispatch has been received from Ma
Mia:
Manila. June ia battalion OF the
Fourth infantry, which left linus,
where Gen. Wheaton is In command,
this morning 10 recopnoiter toward
Pedas DIES Marine, where 1t WAS be-
licvcd most OF the rebels who escaped
from paranaque and liacoor had fled,
was attacked In the rear by apparently
friendly natives.
This brought on n sharp engage
ment lasting several hours, resulting
in five Americans being killed and
about twenty-five wounded. The loss
OF the rebels was very heavy.
The battalion soon exhausted its am
munition, and at $3.50 p m. General
Wheaton and his staff, with two noun
tain guns and one field piece, went to
reinforce the troops attacked. General
Wheaton was fired on ia the road and
had "a narrow escape.
A third battalion was ordered TO the
front and formed on the Las Pinas
road. Heavy firing on both sides fol-
lowed, the artillery being freely used
The enemy was located In the woods
at 4 o'clock, showing signs of retiring,
as the rebels were being pressed very
hard. One gun of the Sixth in an adj
vantngeous position did great execu-
ton.
The scene of the fighting is over
twenty miles from Manila.

ROBBERS CAPTURED.
SURRENDERED WITHOUT MAX
INC A FIGHT.
Yellowstone National Park Scouts Surprise
The Union Pacific Train Robbers
and Effect n Clever Capture
without Bioodshcd.

Monida, Mont, June 19.-Three men
were arrested yesterday morning at
| DwelI's, hotel on the Madison river
/ inst outside OF Yellowstone National
park, who are believed to be members
| of the gang who held up and dyna-
mited the Union Pacific overland ex-
paess train several days since and Sc
cured large sum OF money from the
express safes, which they blew open.
The information regarding their
capture was brought here by the dri-
YER on the Monida and Yellowstone
stage.
According to his statement the cap
ture was made early in the morning,
the camp where the supposed bandits
were being surrounded while the men
slept.
About s o'clock the previous night a
stranger appeared at Dwell's and asked
for food for three men Ind also feed
for their horses They declined ac-
commodations in the hotel and after
obtaining the needed supplies rode
away. The animals they rode had a
jaded appearance and two of the men
remained away quite distance from
the hotel when the request for supplies
was made.
After they left the locality it dawned
upon the people at the hotel that the
man who entered the house answered
the description of one of the Union
Pacific train robbers
Some of the Yellowstone park scouts
who were in the vicinity were notified
and they at once started after the
men.
About daylight the camp of the men
was discovered. The scouting party
surrounded it and when the trio were
aroused they looked down the guns Of
the scouts and surrendered without
making any fight.
Shortly after the scouts took them
in charge a start was made for Nam
moth Hot Springs, on the north side of
the park, from which point the North
ern Pacific railway is easily reached,
and where they will turn the prison
ers over to the authorities.
