Manila October 20.-General Young's ad-
vancing guard of General Lawton's column
left Cabiao yesterday morning and entered
San Isidro at 1870 o'clock.
The American loss was one killed and
three wounded.
The heaviest resistance met with was at
San Fernando, where the enemy destroyed
a bridge. General Pho Del Pillar arrived
from San Miguel and personally command
ed the Filipnos. He and the bulk of the
enemy retreated up the river.
One Spaniard and fifteen insurgents were
captured The loss of the enemy is not
known. The town people appear to be
friendly.
Captain McRae, with a battalion of
the Third infantry and Captain
Chynewth, with a battalion of the Sew
enteenth infantry marched to the town of
Jose Malinas for the purpose of dispensing
a band of 800 insurgents, under Juan Di-
carrot, who had recently been annoying our
outposts and travellers along the road from
Santa Ana to Arayat. The insurgents fed
in the direction of Malang. The country
between Angels and Arayat is now reported
clear.

in the Orient and Europe intend to send

Eighteenth Hussars, and the mounted in
fantry, with a part of the Leicester regi-
ment, got on the enemys flank, and as the
Beers streamed wildly down the hills, max
ing for the main road, they found their re-
treat had been cut off. But they rallied for
a while and there was severe fighting with
considerable loss to both Sides A rougn
estimate places the British loss at 25O Killed
or wounded and the Beers at 300.
A correspondent ties that through his
glasses during the fighting he noticed now
much the Beers seemed to be nonplussed
by the tactics of the imperial troops, especr
tally of the we'll drilled, swift moving horse
men. The enemy are still, as in former
years, n wild struggling guerilla fighting.
Their animals are mostly In wretched
condition.
1t is understood that before today's battle
several Beers hal left their cammondos ana
gone home to their farms and many others
are now uikely to follow.
The movements of the commands in the
Utrecht district are somewhat mysterious.
1t is supposed that they have some idea OF
getting around between this place ana

falling back on their old positions. They
have been raising series of fortihcatlons

ENGLISH ACCOUNT
Correspondent Says Joubert is in Full
= Retreat

: London, October 21.-A Glencoe camp cor
respondent telegraphing yesterday says:
"a force of 5000 Beers led by General Jou-
bert has been defeated severely by force
under Genral Symons and the enemy at this
moment are in full retreat.
"Just after dawn the Boer artillery
opened fire from Glencoe Hill. The range
was ill-judged and the quality of the am
munition bad. Our gunners on the con-
trary, made excellent practice, which soon
began to tell upon the enemy.
cat 1880 p. m. General Symons ordered
general advance of the infantry brigade.
which he himself accompanied. The ad-
vance was covered by terrific fire from
our three batteries and several Boer guns
were silenced before the fusileers began to
climb the hill BY the time the fusileers
and Royal Rifles got within a thousand
yards of the crest the Boer batteries had
been completely silenced.
"The Beers meantime were keeping up
heavy rifle fire, which thinned our ranks
considerably.
s'By o'clock the fusileers and Royal
Rifles had swarmed over the hill and the
Beers were on the run.
"Our losses are probably 800 killed and
wounded and that of the Beers thrice as
many"
