Enemy Completely Routed,

After daylight the United States double
turreted seagoing monitor Monadnock opened
fire off Malate and kept sheling the Fill
pinos left flank. while the other vessels
shelled the right flank for several hours.
By O'Clock the Americans had apparently
completely routed the enemy and had taken
the villages of Palawpong, Santa Mesa, Paco,
Santana, San Pedro, Macorte, Pandocan and
Pasai, and destroyed hundreds of native huts
and had secured possession of the main
water reservoir, a distance of over six miles.
The TennesSeeans Joined the firing line
at 10 O'Clock on Sunday morning and as
sisted In capturing Santa Mesa.
One Of the most notable events of Sun
days work was driving the Filipinos out of
their stronghold at Paco by the reserve,
few companies of Californians, commanded
by Colonel Duboce. The main road to the
village was lined by native huts full of
Filipino sharpshooters. After they had been
firing upon General King and his STAFF, kill
ing driver and upon an ambulance of the
Red Cross society, Colonel Duboce ordered
the huts to be cleared and burned. The
Filipinos concentrated in Paco church and
convent, where they made a determined
stand in the upper stories.
A platoon of Calfornians stationed on a
neighboring bridge maintained hot fire on
the Filipinos, but was unable to dislodge
them In the face of terrific fusillade
Colonel Duboce and few volunteers dashed
into the church, scattered coal oil inside of
1t, set fire to the oil and retired. In the
meantime Captain Dyer's battery of the
Sixth artillery bombarded the church. drop
ping dozen shells into the tower and roof
Company l. and part of Company G OF the
Californians charged into the church, but
were unable to ascend the single flight of
steps leading to the story above.
After the incendiaries had retired a COM
pany of the Idahos and the Washington
Guards stationed on either side of the
building, picked off the Filipinos as they
were smoked out. Many of the rebels, how
ever. escaped into the brush in the rear Of
the church The Americans captured fifty
three of the rebels, and during the fighting
about the church twenty of the rebels were
killed.
Some $500 women, children and non
combatants were allowed to enter the
American lines after promising to go to
the houses of friends and remain there.

WINCH NOT CONFIRMED.
missouri >enate Turns Down Gov. stephens
Nominee for state University Curator
Bills in House and Senate.

Jefferson City, Mo, Feb. 9. The
senate had stormy executive session
when Gov. Stephens appoin tmen is for
curators of the state university came
up Tor confirmation. @. d. Jones, OF
Knox county, was vigorously opposed
on the ground that he Is a radical pop
nIist Senator Lyons and Senator
Miller led the opposition. Two bal
lots were necessary to confirm Mr..
Jones appointment. The first resulted
IN tie vote. On the second ballot
Mr.. Jones was confirmed by one vote
DIR. John ID. Vinctl, of ST. Louis, was
less fortunate. His name was sent to
the senate, but the committee on edu-
cation brought in a report recommend
ing that the governor withdraw the
appointment. The reason given was
that Nincil has a sister-in-law
who is a member of the faculty.
The report of the committee was
adopted. II. c. Wells, of Platte
county, and Noah NJ. Given, of Cass
county, were confirmed as curators
without opposition. The appointments
OF John Ii. Irice as police commits
sioner of St Joseph, and Harvey G.
q ark, as brigadier commander of the
Missouri national guards, were con.
firmed.
The senate adopted both of Senator
Wilson's joint and concurrent resolu
tions to su bmit a constitutional amend
ment doing away with grand juries.
All of the senators voted for both.
One resolution provides that grand
juries shall not be called except on
the order of the judge. The other
abolishes the section which provides
that no felony can be tried except on
Indictment The resolutions are ex-
pected to pass the house.
The committee of democrats appoint
ed to find out whether the house can dc
business with less than 224 employees
in general and "a committee clerks
is making haste slowly. There has
been only one meeting and there is no
prospect of an early report. One mem
Der of the committee is authority for
the statement that only those clerks
who could not write legible would be
dismissed.
In the house Jones, of Howell, pre-
scented a resolution asking congress to
care for confederate graves and GENE
teries. 1t was adopted.
The house struck a blow at the
normal schools when Aydelot's amend
ment giving the state superintendent
of public schools the sole right to
grant teachers certificates was adopted
by a vote of IS to A, and made a part
of Coltrane's bill creating the office of
assistant superintendent at a salary OF

ance, turned into the state treasury
over IS, 900 this morning. 1t is money
collected under the new law taxing
the gross earnings in Kansas of insur-
ance companies, passed by the special
session, and Mr., Grimes, the treasurer,
reeeipted therefor. This, while it is
not hnal and cuts no figure in the liti-
cation pending in the courts, is
shght recognition of the validity OF
tne special session by Mr.. Grimes. who
mas joined with Auditor Cole in hold
ing up the acts OF that session.
The superintendent of insurance
turns into the treasury money receive d

ing daily $500 to $500 from insurance
companies TO pay the tax fixed by the
new law. While the companies op-
posed the passage of the law, they pay

ported. He estimates that the revenue

Can Stamp Out smallpox.

Washington, Feb. 3.-Surgeon Gen
eral Sternberg, in answer to an in
quiry yes terday, expressed confidence
in the entire ability of the medical
officers in Manila to stamp out the
smallpox among the American troops
there. They never failed in the past
by vaccination and isolation and the
establishment of well-main tanned quar-.
antines to protect the troops against
smallpox and there was no reason to
suppose they would fail now.

MILES AS A POSSIBILITY.

Much Attention.

As Presidential Timber He Is Attracting
Much Attention.
Washington, d. G, Feb. The
talk of Gen. Miles as a presidential
possibility Is being revived, and it is
causing uEeasiness in administration
circles. The frieEds Of the President
see in Miles perhaps a more danger
Gus rival to Mckinley next year
than Theodore Roosevelt. Genei al
Miles Is more 0; the storm center of
the army scandals titan any other
man
The Efforts of Alger and his ring
in the war department TO suppress
General Miles and keep linn in the
background have only resulted n
bringing him to the front and Ill
creasing his popularity. Ii is pointed
out that General Miles and Governor
Roosevelt seem to be in close com
municatiOn with each other and
politicians regard it as significant.
A combination between Roosevelt
and Miles would certainly max @
trouble for Mckinley and Henna.
Secretary Alger to-day asked the
President to note General Miles
activity in the beef scandal and
to call him to account. The Presi
dent does not desire to do this. He
does not know what General Miles
NAV hvae in reserve. The latter is
apparently not concerned as to the
outcome.
