OTIS Organizing Regiments..

WASHINGTON, June 15-Pursuing a
policy determined upon some months
ago, General Otis is organizing three
regiments in the Philippines composed
of officers and men OF the state volunteers
who desire to remain i'll the service. The
army bill authorized this kind of enlist
ment in the Philippines. General Otis
and the volunteer officers in the Philip
pines have been consulting to see how
many men will enlist.
The number has not been very large,
as there seems to be desire on the part
of the volunteers to return to the United
States with their organizations.

MANILA, June 10, $50 p. m.-Captain
Gable, of General Wheaton's staff, with
three companies of the Twenty-first regi-

linus. The rebels, who were apparently
expecting an attack, retired, leaving be-
hind them twenty Spanish prisoners,
who joined the Americans. The rebels
have probably gone to the mountains
along the lake. According to the native
stores, they carried 100 dead and 800
wounded through Bacoor after the re-
cent battle.
The natives are now hocking into Ba-
coor, and it is probable there are many
soldiers in plain clothes among them.
The whole section is practically with
out food, and General Otis has ordered
