The attack was a complete surprise
TO the insurgents. who had no idea that
movement was intended until the
armorcd car opened a deadly fire with
two gatlings, revolving cannon and a
six-pounder. 4 ne heavy artillery open
ed on botn Hanks a moment later. A
majority of the Filipinos were asleep
when fhe attack was made. Men with
large bells were heard running along
the shacks arousing the soldiers.
The Americans maintained almost a
perfect line four miles long, through
cane brakes where they could see moth
ing ahead. The mud in places was
knee deep in the rice fields and jungles
and through the bitches flowed small
rivers several feet deep.
The Filipinos tried to ambush the
Americans several times. the country

to these tactics; but the troops stopped
for nothing. forcing their way through

Killed in a Race Riot.

A dispatch from Cardiff, Ala, says:
Three negroes are dead and one is
not expected to live as q result of n
riot between the whites and negro
miners at the ore mines near this
place, In Jefferson county. The two
races came to a clash in the late af-
ternoon in Glasgow Hollow, where
the negroes had congregated armed
with Winchester rifles. A white man
passing along the road was held up
and roughly handled. This news
soon spread and body of white mi
ners moved toward the hollow. 1t
is supposed that they went around by
a circuitour route In the mountains,
came upon the negroes unexpectedly,
and fired upon them. Edward Ellis,
the ring leader, who was armed with
rifle and revolver, fell at the first
volley. There was another volley
and four more negroes fell. dill
and Samuels died few minutes la
ter while being removed to a house.
George Thomas was shot through
the abdomen with Winchester bull
let. He is not expected to recover.
Rudolph Williams will probably live.
The trouble started on Thursday
when it was thought that John Shep-
ard, who. on last Wednesday after
noon assaulted Mrs. Monroe Jones,
near Corona, was in the community.
The negroes armed themselves to
prevent his capture. Both sides
were aroused, and only the arrival of
a sheriff's posse prevented an out
break.

The Richmond correspondent of
the Baltimore Sun says: 1t is bellev-
ed that the legislature IF Virginia,
whose members are to be elected in
November, will at the coming session
consider some of the most important
antitrust legislation that has yet
been attempted in this state. Two
years ago there was some talk of en-
acting law requiring corporations
doing business in this state to take
out charters here. This subject was
considered by some of the most prom
nent democrats in the state. Indeed,
1t was called to the attention of Gov
ernor Tyler with the view of his re-
commencing it in his message to the
general assembly. He did not, how
ever, do so and the matter was not
pressed at that time. 1t is not i'm
probable that this subject may be
brought up again at the coming ses.
sion. The disposition among some
of the leaders is to make the great
corporations bear a greater proper
ton of the burdens of taxation in
Virginia.
