With lnsurgents.
MANILA, Oct. 14.-General Young,
with two battalions of the Twenty.
fourth infantry, nine troops of the
Fourth cavalry and the scouts Of the
Thirty.seventh infantry, left Santa Ana
at Z a. m. and occupied Arayat at Q
after a skirmish lasting half an hour.
The enemy, estimated at 800 men, re-
treated toward Magellan. The swampy
character Of the country prevented the
use of cavalry. The men of the Twenty
fourth charged the trenches. The
enemy set the town on fire and sue
ceeded in burning a small station. Five
wounded Filipinos were left on the
field. The Americans had one man
wounded.
General Schwan's column is now be-
tween Perez de la Marinas and linus.
The roads are very heavy and there has
been no fighting yet.

REALITY OF WAR
Destruction of the British Ar
mored Train Brings 1t Home
to Englishmen.
Position of Baden 0Well's De.
tachment Regarded Very
Critical.
Beers May Also Isolate Other
Troops---M afeking in
Danger.

LONDON. Oct. l4.-The announcement
that the Beers had destroyed an armored
train en- the western border Of the
Transvaal is calculated to bring home
to ''the mai in the streets the realities
of war. Attempts are made to liken
the occurrence to the blowing up of the
United States battleship Maine in Ha-
vana harbor, but that event occurred
in times of peace. The Beers were
doubtless within their rights as bellig-
erents is they are responsible fer the
destruction of the train.
Apart from this destruction of the
armored train, the most notable change
in the position of affairs Is the presence
of Beers at Maribogo. 40 miles south Of
Mafeking. which seems to indicate that
they are e~ndeavoripg to get Colonel
Baden.Powell between two fires. The
gravity of the Boer advance can be bet
ter estimated when it is realized that
they will thereby cut railway and tele-
graphic communication to the north,
isolating several British positions
which must be speedily relieved.
Despite the optimistic reports Of the
ability of Mafeking to repel attack, the
greatest anxiety prevails here regard
ing the situation there, as it is known
that the redoubtable commandant,
Cronje, who captured the Jameson
raiders, has the strongest commando
yet put into the field, with the excep-
ton Of Commandant General Joubert's
force. Comics troops number between
5000 and $1,000 men.
The position in Natal has not mate
rally altered. The reported inroad of
5000 Beers by way Of Tintwa, is prob
ably identical with the inroad Of the
force reported Thursday as having
crossed Van Reenan's Pass.
The Tintwa column, according to the
last advices, had reached within 20
miles of Ladysmi:h. On that showing
there ought to be speedy fighting.
Ladysmith is at present the Aldershot
of Natal,

General Schwan's Expedition Quits h
Advance and Marches Back.
MANILA. Oct. IA. General Schwan's
expedition having accomplished its OBJ
ject the troops are all returning to their
former positions. abandoning the towns
taken.
General Schwan is en- route from
Perezda Marinas to linus with the in
fantry while the artillery and cavalry
and all mule teams are %retracing their
route from Malabon to Bacoor, with
the signal corps removing the wires.
General Trias. with the organized bod
les of insurgents, has retreated to Slang
and Indang, at the base Of the noun
tain.
: The movement of the United States
troops was a fine display Of American
generalship and energy, while the Fill
pinos adopted what General Alejan-
drino terms ''our peculiar method Of
warfare"
At Malabon the Americans corralled
200 or 300 natives, supposed to be fight
ing men. A few of them were caught
with arms in their hands, but large
numbers were found in hiding, dressed
in Khaki, like the American uniform.
A majority of them were in the garb of
amigos. but they are suspected Of
shooting at the troops from houses. a
growing habit which aourished
throughout the advance whenever small
parties Of Americans strayed from the
main body. The prisoners are a white
elephant on the hands of the Ameri.
cans.
