Gen. Otis Lists OF Casualties in Fight
ing About Manila.

Two cablegrams were received from
MAJ Gen. OTIS yesterday. giving lists Of
casualties In the fighting OF Saturday
night and Monday The first list gave
eight men killed and the second thirty
two. making d total of forty killed.
Prompted by Gen OTIS promise TO send
along the list OF casualties al the earliest
possible moment, the friends of the SOL
diers at Manila besieged the War De
partment yesterday BY telegram and word
OF mouth for information from the scene
Of the battle in the Philippines. The list
Wes long in coming. q fact explained by
the cutting of the telegraph wires along
the American front, which prevented
early reports from the diyisiofi COM
ma nders.
When Gen OTIS casualty lists began to
come over the cables they were somewhat
confusing. probably due 10 the fact that
there are nineteen different lines between
Manila and Washington The immediate
elect was 10 cause some errors to be made
In the reported list OF killed. After great
dif1culty the officials Of the War Depart
ment arranged the previous Casualty lists
INTO the following single list, which is be-
lieved 10 be substantially accurate and
was made up as an official substitute list
for the prior list:
