NE ANILA, June 16.-After cutting
M the railroad and telegraph at
ly Apalit, seven miles south of San
Fernando, for the purpose of
severing connection with Manila. the
rebels attacked General MacArthurs S
lines at San Fernando at 4:30 this
morning They met with an .uneXpect-
edly warm reception and were re-
pulsed with a loss of seventy-f1Ve killed
thirty prisoners ana many wounded.
The rebel force, estimated to have
numbered 5000 men, advanced stealth
lily from the jungle north of the city
and then divided with the evident pur-
pose of surrounding the Americans.
The outposts of the Iowa regiment
discovered the enemy and retired to
their lines. where the entire division
waited in an entrenched position. The
Kansas and Iowa regiments received
the first shock of the attack. ReserV-
ing their fire until the enemy was with
in 900 yards, the first volley of the
Americans hit the rebels who returned
the fire wildly the rest of their line
failing to advance. The Americans.
who thoroughly enjoyed the novelty of
the situation, awaiting an attack be-
hind breastworks, sailed forth and the
insurgents thereupon turned and fled
into the Jungle. Our loss was fourteen
wounded. and the majority of them are
only slightly hurt.

Considerable difficulty and many
hardships We're met with, owing chiefly
to the poor condition of the machinery
of the Enterprise; there were frequent
breakdowns. and the draft of over four
teen feet made the survey very diff
cult from the ship, and the last 800
miles were made from a steam launch.
A short time before the survey had
been completed Commander Selfridge
was overhauled by a Brazilian naval
officer notifying him that the Madeira
was not open to foreign ships of war
and that the Governor of the province
requested that the Enterprise should
return to the Amazon. Commander
Selfridge explained his orders from the
