THE FlLlpINos SLAUGHTERED.
No Match ior Cool Heads and Steady Hands
OF American Riflemen.

London, Feb. 6.-The Morning Post
publishes the following account of the
fighting at Manila: The immediate
cause OF the attack was an advance by
two Filipinos to the Nebraska Outposts
on the northeast of the city. When
ordered to halt, they refused, and the
sentry fired. An insurgent signal gun
was then fired from blockhouse No. Z,
and an attack was Immediately begun
on the Nebraska regiment, which was
encamped.
1.-The fighting soon spread on both
sides until firing was in progress on
all the outposts around the city. The
American troops responded vigorously,
the insurgent fire being heavy and the
attack evidently hurriedly planned.
Firing continued throughout the night
with an occasional cessation of from
half an hour to an hour at a time.
AT daybreak, the warships Charles
ton and Challo began Smelling the
north side of the city. Their fire was
followed later by that of the Monad-
mock on the southern side, the insur-
gent positions having been previously
accurately located. The Filipino loss
is reported to have been heavy. The
wounded on the American side are
now estimated at 200. Few Americans
were killed.
1.-The Americans began a vigorous
advance all along the line, this morn
ing Sunday, and We're soon pressing
back the insurgents in every direction,
steadily maintaining their advanced
positions and capturing the villages OF
San Juan del Monte, Santa Ana, San
Pedro. Macati. Santa Mesa and Lomia.
1.-The splendid police system prevent
ed a general outbreak in the city,
though several soldiers We're attacked
by natives in the streets. Lieut..
Charles Hogan and Sergeant Wall
were shot by three natives, the former
being seriously wounded and the lat
ter slightly. Lieut.. Col. Cotton was at
tackled by native with sword while
riding in a carriage to the front. He
killed his assailant with his revolver.
A sharpshooter within the American
lines shot and killed q sergeant while
he was sitting at window Of the I'd
Reserve hospital. Col. William G.
Smith died of apoplexy. Many of the
insurgents We're driven into the Pasig
river and drowned. Several hundred
were taken prisoners"
In subsequent telegram the fol-
lowing statements are made: Last
nights (Saturday's) and today's (Sun-
days. engagements have proved a
veritable slaughter for the Filipinos,
their killed being reported as amount
ing to thousands. The American forces
could scarcely have been better dis
posed. 1t is now known that the at
tack was fully expected and that ev-
cry preparation had been made to meet
the contingency.
Firing slackened at noon Sunday,
the enemy being apparently democrat
lied. The American troops. however.
are fully equipped to meet possible
attack, tonight.
"Agunaldo's private secretary has
been arrested as a spy in Manila. Per-
feet quiet now reigns in the city More
than 100 wounded Filipinos, taken
from the trenches, are being cared for
