Pedro NucNti.

Manila March II. - Major General
Lawton has arrived with the Fourth
,egulars and battalion of the Seven
tenth on board the United States
transport Grant and will at once take
command Of the troops in the field.
General 1.awton's arrival with re-en-
forcements is the signal for an ag-
gressive movement toward the interior
of the island for the purpose of hunting
down Aguinaldo and dispensing the in
surgents through the jungle.
The accession of 1900 fresh men, to-
gether with the presence of the major
general who is to conduct the forward
campaign. has impaired new vigor and
enthusiasm to the troops in the field.
They are looking forward now to real
lighting and an advance movement,
which will be an agreeable change from
the treacherous skirmishng and picket
firing of the last few days.
General Otis will now be able to de-
vote his attention exclusively to the adj
ministrative duties of military gov
ernor of the Philippines.

Major E. Convlle, Captain David S.
Elliott and Second Lieutenant Eugene

Pandncan Burned.
The Filipinos, rendered desperate by
the severe punishment which they have
received in the last few days and by the
strictness of military rule within the
American lines, have again resorted to
treachery and the torch as a means of
harassing the American forces. The
village of Pandacan, which is in the
American lines, was burned by the ma
tives.
This illustrates the difficulties with
which the Americans are beset. Rebels
and treacherous natives are constantly
within their lines. evading the police,
even themselves sometimes posing as
spies in the employ of the Americans
and vet constantly on the lookout for
an opportunity to plumber, burn and
pillage.
With the exception of San Pedro Ma
cati, where Filipino sharpshooters in
cessantly annoy the American troops,
matters are unusually quiet along the
line.
The weather is much cooler.
