MINERS IN A BATTLE.
Clash Between Americans and Cana.
dians in Alaska.

Clash Between Americans and Cana.
dians in Alaska.
News has been received that battle
was fought between American and Cana
dian mi, .ers a few miles off the Dalton
trail. -Four men arereported to have been
killed outright and a number of others
are said to have been seriously wounded
When the alien mining law of British
nue. at time when .l,e street was throng-
the American miners left Atlin, the new
Canadian gold district, and struck north
A short distance off the Dalton trail on
the Porcupine river they found a district
rich in placer gold. 1t was generally con-
ceded that the new placers were in Ameri-
can territory, and the miners vowed that
no Canadian should stake claim. Some
Canadian mounted policemen, however,
did stake claims in the American terri
tory, and justified their act by moving the
Canadian flag from Mount Pleasant on
the trail so as to make the line take in
a rich part of the district. They were
followed by at least forty Canadian min
ers, who all located good claims.
A fortnight ago about 100 American
miners held a meeting and decided to
send notices to all Canadians to leave
the country within five days. The notices
were sent out, but no heed was paid to
them. Early on the morning of the sixth
day the American miners met and pro-
ceeIei to the Canadian camp. Before
they could even state the object Of their
visit some one fired shot, and then every
one seemed to be shooting. Several
rounds were fred and four men were
killed outright-an American and three
Canadians. The battle was very brief
and resulted in the Canadians, about fifty
in number, fleeing across the border. The
Americans then retired to their own camp.

WAR WILL BE SHORT.
Otis and Dewey Expect Soon to eub-
due the FiIipiuos.

due the FiIipinos.
With the navy and land forces acting in
unison it is expected % make the Philip
pine campaign short and decisive The
arrival of Gen. Lawton at Manila gives
Gen. Otis = man well trained in Indian
warfare and fully capable of leading the
army against the natives. whose methods
are similar TO those of the red men Of the
plains. The regulars, who have already
reached Manila, with the men due there
soon, form. an important addition to the
army. All are in good physical condition
and better fitted TO battle in the tropics
than the men who have been living in the
warm climate 50 many months. The reg
ulars are armed with Krag-Jorgens0n
rifles, the best arm in the Government
service.
Admiral Dewey's ships are all in splen-
did shape, desrte the fact that they have
been so long herond the reach of modern
repair plants. The navy will have much
to do in the coming campaign, as il is the
intention TO assert United States sover-
eighty on every Inhabited island of the
archipelago.
Soldiers and seamen are alike impatient
to begin the attack. The defensive policy
has been wearing on all, and they prefer
real fighting to the desultory skirmishing
which has been almost continuous since
the natives first began open hostilities Al
though the rainy season in the islands is
near. The American commanders are con
fident that they can make good progress
if not utterly crush the opposition before
the weather puts an end to operations.

Massed into solid lines, men and women

New York has eyer known.
The roll of dead is long. Private homes
around the place of sacrifice became field
Ospitals-spacious mansions, including
the Jay Gould home, were made tempo
rary morgues.
John Foy, a waiter employed at the
Windsor'Ho in statement made after
the fire to Coroner Bausch declared that
the hotel was burned through the gross
careleSsness of a guest. The waiter was
in corridor of the second floor, walking
toward 47th street, when he saw man
near the end of the corridor strike
match to light his cigar. The man threw
the match to the floor and walked on with
out waiting to see that it had gone out
Foy noticed the action, and he also no.
ticed that the match was still blazing
when it left the mans hand. When the
waiter reached the spot the lace curtains
were ablaze. He tried to extinguish the
fame, but it was quickly up the curtain
and caught the woodwork The carpet
caught fire, and the walls seemed to burn
like tinder. Foy gave the alarm and ran
down stairs and out OF the building to
reach firebox.
An hour after the fire started the ruin
was complete At ten minutes after 3
o'clock the head of the parade reached
46th street and Fifth avenue, opposite the
Windsor. An instant later a policeman
saw tiny blaze and puff of smoke in
a bow window in the drawing room on the
second floor, ON the 46th street side. He
turned in an alarm. Before he could re-
turn to the hotel the drawing room was
a sheet of flames. lhe room had been
crowded with guests watching the parade.

TOOK 400 PRISONERS.
General Wheaton Infiicts Heavy Loss
ON Filipinos.

General Wheaton Infiicts Heavy Loss
on Filipinos.
Gen. Lloyd Wheaton, commanding the
United States flying column, attacked and
defeated force of 1000 Filipinos at
Pasig Wednesday afternoon, infiicting a
heavy loss upon them. The American loss
was slight. The Americans captured $50
FIiipinos. Many bodies of rebels killed
in the engagement tioated down the river.
Gen. Wheaton's brigade continues the
work of clearing out the rebels around
Pasig. The Washington volunteers cap
tured and burned Pateros, meeting with a
sharp fire from the enemy while crossing
the river. The fighting was like that of
the last week, the insurgents occasionally
making stand, but eventually fleeing.
The progress of the Americans advance
has been slow.
Three thousand insurgents moved down
Tuesday night to towns of Pasig and Pa
teros, on shore of Laguanda bay, fronting
Wheaton's troops on Pasig river line. BY
heavy fighting Wheaton dislodged and
drove them back. taking 400 prisoners
and inflicting heavy loss in killed and
wounded. His loss was very moderate
He now occupies these towns with suffi.
cient force to hold them.
Officials at the War Department are
gratiied over the victories of Gen. Whea-
ton, and predict further successful ad-
vances in the near future. 1t is under
stood that the policy of Gen. Otis is to
drive the insurgents without cessation in
to the uncultivated region before the rainy
season sets in. There they will have moth
ing to subsist on, and it is thought they
will lay down their arms. This has been
prevented heretofore by a general belief
among them that they would be shot or
imprisoned if they surrendered.
