Were Killed During the Capture of
Santa Cruz-Cablegram from Otis

Manila, April l2,-At about midnight
the rebels cut the telegram line at sew
eral places between here and Malolos
and signal fires were lighted and rock
cts sent up along the foothills to the
right of the railroad, Later the enemy
attacked the outposts of the Minnesota
regiment, between Biagaa and Bocavie,
five miles south of Malolos. killing two
men and wounding fourteen.
simultaneously the outposts of the
Oregon regiment at Marilao, the next
station on the way to Manila, were at
tackled with the result that three
Americans were killed and two
wounded.
The loss of the enemy was ten men
killed and six wounded. The Ameri-
cans also captured two prisoners.
Troops were concentrated along the
railroads as thickly as possible and the
rebels were driven back to the foot
hills.
The roadhed of the railroad was dam
aged but it was repaired almost imme-
diately and traffic was soon resumed
through to Malolos.
1t is supposed that many Of the
rebels who attacked MacArthur's line
and We're repulsed by the troops COM
manded by Wheaton were natives who
entered the region in the guise Of
friendliness They seemingly secreted
arms at several places and fired on the
Americans from bushes at SO close
range that they could be heard talk
ing. Wheaton is preparing to punish
the Filipiuos.
The military gunboats Napidan and
Laguna de Bay succeeded in entering
Santa Cruz river and captured some
small Spanish gunboats and three

Ooste brought 30 wounded. one dead

Cablegram from Otis.
Washington, April 12.-rhe follow
ing dispatch was received yesterday
from Gen. Otis:
Manila, April ll.-Adjstant Gener-
al, Washington: Insurgents attacked
MacArthur's line of railway communi-
cation last night in considerable force,
and were repulsed by Wheaton with
heavy loss. Wheaton's casualties were
three killed and twenty wounded,
The attack of the insurgents upon
the railway north of Manila indicates
to the war department officials that
while Gen. Macarthur was pushing
north bodies of insurgents took to the
mountains and jungles to the right OF
the railway and have been watching
an opportunity to capture the road at
some point and thus cut off the main
body of the army to the northward
The repulse of the natives shows that
they had not sufficient force to aC-
complish their purpose.

above another, to height of 60
feet. Over this massive crane oper-

poyed on the structure when. the
collapse occurred. A heavy load of
steel was being sent on the crane
when the timbers gave way and the
entire structure collapsed AS the
timbers gave way, the crane toppled
into the river. AS it went down it
crashed into the workmen, killing two
of them instantly. Many of the men
were carried down with the wreck but
few succeeded in getting to the pier,
the majority either fell into the water
or the tangle of iron and wood work.
The dead are: Lewis Beattie,
Thomas Grady. William Delaney and
son, Walter Delaney.
