MANILA, Nov. 2s.-The insurl ,nts

Pangasanan, leaving Americans and

confusion of the Filipino retreat The
Americans are p. j. Greene and George
Powers of the battleship Oregon.

Huber Of Iowa's scouts. They report
that two Americans, who were unable
to escape. are with the insurgents.
They are David Scott of the Twenty
fourth infantry, and William Sherry of
the hospital corps. Four deserters are
with the Filipinos, Howard, Martin
and Ford Of the Californians, and
Watts, whose former regiment is un-
known.
Colonel Bell proposes to follow the
Filipinos until he can bring about de-
cisive fight or they are scattered.
Mangalaren was strongly fortified
with rifle pits commanding the roads,
but the insurgents abandoned the place
without firing shot.
General Wheaton reports that natives
have threatened violence to Aguinaldo's
mother, who is now sheltered in con-
vent, with guard: General Otis has
ordered her to be brought to Manila in

ment. While the latest news is of a
fairly reassuring character, from the
British view point, much of it is as
sumed to be true on sufficient evidence.
For instance, the reported capture of
Honey Nest Kloof. of which there is
no confirmation, while the stories of
the rapid retirement of the Beers in
Natal must be received with caution.
The fact appears to be that the British
scouts have lost touch of the burghers,
portions Of whose force, after with
drawing from the reach of observation,
may, it is claimed, make detour with
the object of interrupting the British
line of communication. Sharp fighting
may be expected at any time on the
southern frontier. Possibly General
Gatacre's first battle will be in the
rough passes of the Storm berg noun
tains.
The particular service squadron of
the British fleet has been ordered to
proceed to Gibraltar Dec. 5. It will
probably replace the channel squadron.

1t is said that the French cabinet has
instructed the minister of war to refuse
all officers leave to go abroad, and that
the officers absenting themselves in or.
der to go to the Transvaal will do so at
the risk of dismissal.
A corrected list of the British casual
ties at Gras Pan shows that Flag Cap
tain Reginald G. Prothero of the Doris
and Lieutenant of Marines Walter T.
G. Jones, also of the Doris, previously
reported wounded, were killed.
The additional casualties telegraphed
by General Butler appear to be the first
intimation of the actions of General
Methuen's forces which have not yet
been reported. AS the Ninth Lancers
participated in reconnaissance on Sun
day. they must have safely returned
from the pursuit of the Beers after the
battle of Gras Pan.

Watson's dispatch follows:

Delivery all guns promised. Numerous

The information contained in Ad.

by the president and his advisers with
unconcealed satisfaction. The surren.
der of the province of Zamboanga is
regarded as

hard blow to those who are still en-
deavoring to maintain the insurrection
in the island of Luzon. On the 21st
inst. Admiral Watson cabled the navy
department that Commander Very had
captured the city of Zamboanga on the
18th. He was aided by friendly ma.
tives and Moros and was holding the
town pending the arrival of reinforce
ments from Jolo. On the same day
General Otis informed the. war depart

second largest island of the Philippine

LONDON, Nov. pa dispatch has
been received here from General Butler
giving list of casualties among the
troops engaged in what was hitherto
known as the battle of Gras Pan. but
which is now officially designated the
battle of Enslin. 1t proves, as antici-
pated, that the British success was
heavily bought. The losses announced
added the naval brigade casualties pre-
viously notified, makes grand total
of 1913 as the cost of General Methuen's
second battle. The Yorkshires, ap.
parently, bore with the naval brigade
the brunt of the fighting, as there were.
in addition to 3 officers, 48 of the rank
and file killed, wounded and missing.
The fact that the hist contains the
casualties of the Ninth Lanciers seems
to dispose of the fears that the cavalry
was surrounded and captured, espe-
cially as none of the Lancers are re-
ported missing.

Yesterday afternoon, at ST. James hall,
Nine. Blanche Marchesi gave a vocal re-

Throughout she was applauded with the
greatest enthusiasm. 1t was natural from
an artistic point Of view. for, indeed, Nine.
Marchesi is very exceptional and sincere
artist. She is SO far removed from the COM
mon level that it is amazing to find that she
is appreciated by so various and numerous
clientele. She seems to have the strange
power of attracting audiences of every class
and taste. When seek for the reason of
this result we find that 1t lies probably in
her possession of a wonderful dramatic fac

Ing. Luckily her dramatic instinct appeals
not only to the casual listener, but also to
any one who attends with every safeguard

strength and success of this great artist? In

Of emotional insight developed in the high

She is unspeakably sincere, and she Ger
