WET SEASON IN PHILIPPINES
Its Approach Likely to be an
Important Factor
IN DETERMINING THE CHARACTER
Of the Military Movements for
Six Months.


Washington, April War Depart
ment officials look upon the approach
of the wet season in the Philippines as
likely to be an important, il not de-
cisive, factor in determining the char
acter of the military movements dur
ing the next six months, This period
of rain and storm is no new and un-
tried danger, for the. United States
troops were in the trenches around
Manila through much of the worst
part of the wet season last year. Major
Simpson, chief of the SBuIe eau of Mill
tary Information, was then on the staff
of Gen. Greene, and learned from ex-
perience how far i this wet season
affected the health and comfort of the
men and retarded military operations.
Generally speaking, he says, men were
up to their knees in mud and water
during July and August, when our
trenches were drawn around Manila
but, while this was b great personal
Inconvenience, it did not cause any
material increase in the sick rate.
About the worst feature was that the
stretches of quagmire made it next to
impossible to execute military move
ments on large scale.
The wet season does not begin as a
rule until June, so that it is about two
months before its effects will be seri-
ously felt. The months of April and
May generally come under the head of
the hot season, which Just precedes the
drenching rains beginning in june
The hottest weather is in May, although
it never goes above 100 degrees. Gradu-
ally this merges into the heavy rains
and violent storms of June, the wet
season lasting for six months. The
season does not come on abruptly, but
is a gradual transition, until every
thing is in condition of soak.
II is the general belief that Gen.
Otis will complete his present cam
paign before the wet season opens, and
confine his efforts after that to holding
the ground already won, keeping up
communication, protecting his fanks
and waiting for the dry season to give
him another period of active operation.

the United States Circuit Court in
Baltimore. Tho Girard Co. and Mr..

counsel $4,000 for their services. Ber-
nard Carter & Sons, the Baltimore at

HIGH PAY FOR HUT AND STOVE.
Seven Italians Rave TO Pay CLAIM mn,
'#.H costa.

Domenico Bernardo brought a suit
for foreign attachment against eight
Italians employed by the Philadelphia,
Wilmington a. Baltimore Railroad Co.
at ABERDEEN, Nd, claiming that seven
OF them each owed him 81 for the rent
OF a hut and stove and the eighth
owed him $500 for lodging and so on.
The pay OF the men in the hands of the
railroad company was attached under
the writ. The men had a hearing at
Justice OF the Peace Daley Office Mon
day evening.
ltappears that Bernardo rented hut
at Aberdeen, which he re-rented to the
Italians. In the hut was a stove which
cost So. so, and for the use of hut and
stove bernardo WINS to receive ST. % a
month from each italian. In Decem-
ber he left, but month later he re-
turned and collected the rent, accord
ing to the men, and then went away
again. Meanwhile the owner of the
hut is alleged to have come and col
lected the rent from the Italians n
second time, he not having received
the amount previously collected.
In his suit, Bernardo claimed three
months rent and Justice DAILY gave
Judgment in each case for SO. IS. The
costs in each ease for the foreign at
tachment amounted to &c. G5; SO that
the total for use of hut and stove was
S26. 25 and for costs BAG. 80. There is
no appeal in cases for less than So
In the Case of the eighth Italian,
against whom the claim was Sc. 80,
referees sat, as required in foreign at
tachments for more than So. It APP
peared that Bernardo owed Gus Roller,
an Eikton baker, some money, and that
the defendant, knowing that, had paid
Roller $500, the amount Bernardo
claimed from the defendant. The
referees, therefore, decided in favor Of
the defendant, and Bernardo must pay
the Sc. 65 costs.

ErAoUArION OF MAIoLos.
The Flag of United Suites Was Raised 10
That City on Friday Morning.

That city on Friday MORNING..
Manila, Philippine Islands, March
3l-3. So p. m. The American flag was
raised over Malolos at 10 O'CLOCK this
morning. The Kansas Regiment and
the Montana Regiment, on entering
the city, found it deserted, the Presi
dencia burning and the rebels retreat
ing towards the mountains in state
of terror. 1t is believed they cannot
make oven faint resistance. The
American loss was small.
1t is evident that the rebels, for
some time past, have abandoned all
hope of holding their capital for the
Americans found there evidences of
claborate preparations for evacuation.
On the railroad, the rails and ties, for
about mile, had been torn up and
probably brown into the river. A few
Cinnamon were the only prisoners cap
tured. They said Aguinaldo left
Maloios on Wednesday. The principal
citizens of Malolos, and their families
and goods, have heen taken into the
country, over the railroad, while others
departed on foot, carrying their pos
sessions and driving their cattle and
other animals before them. Most of
the rebel forces were removed last
evening to positions cast of the rail-
road, leaving only some small bands in
tho strong trenches in front Of Malolos.
Gen. Macarthur started for the rebel
capital at O'Clock this morning, with
two rapid-fire guns lanking the track,
two guns of the Utah Battery on the
right and two guns Of the Sixth Artil-
lery on the loft, the rapids firing con
tinuousy. The Kansas and Montana
Regiments moved upon Malolos, and
the Nebraska and Pennsylvania Regi-
ments and the Third ARTILLERY kept
along the right of tho railroad. The
only effective stand made by tho rebels
was au bamboo and eartheuwork,
half mile from Malolos and on the
right, where the Nebraska Regiment,
as was the ease yesterday, had the
hardest work and suffered che greatest
loss.
Col. Funston, always Mt the front,
was the first man to enter Malolos,
followed by "a group of dashing
kansans.
The Filipino flag. which was flying
from the tWltre of the town, was
hauled dow.<. by some men of the
Montana Rogi knt, no triumphantly

whole place was ablaze. It turned cot.
however, that only the Presidencia
government building) and a few of
the smaller buildings had been set
afire by the rebels before they
evacuated the place.
From the reports gathered by the
American officers from prisoners and
others, it is believed that the rebel
army is constantly losing strength, on
account of dessrtions, and that.
although th. enemy may make one or
two more stands, the forces of Aguin-
aldo will degenerate, in perhaps
month, to q few hundreds, who may
continue waging guerilla warfare in
the mountains.

can ARMY is feasting on cocoanuts and

rest, while the hospital train is carry
