Catbalogan. in the night of October 27.
About 200 American soldiers held the
town Of Catbalogan, being constantly har-
assed by the insurgents. under General
Lukbon. on the surrounding hills. This led
to strict orders to kill all natives out after
dark.
"A rebel officer came into town under a
flag of truce and delivered over Sergeant
Rice and Corporal Allen of the 43d Infan-
try, who were captured last March. These
men reported that the force of Filipinos
besieging the town numbered 1890 and that
they were boasting of coming into the town
to kill all Americans.
'About 10 o'clock at night the Filipinos
opened heavy fire on the town. It. was
Corporal Chase's duty to reinforce the Cat

When the firing had subsided the corporal

The exact condition of Representative
Charles A. Boutelle's health has been given
in writing by DR.. Edward Cowles, superin-
tendent OF the Mclean Hospital Waverley
Mass, in connection with the proposition
to place him on the retired list of the navy.
Dr. COwles says
"Mr. Charles A. Boutelle has been
patient in this hospital since December u,
1899. His mental disturbance, disorder of
speech etc. are symptomatic of brain dis
ease. associated with chronic renal and
cardiac LESSONS.

in the mental condition. The patient is

illness depends upon that Of the renal and
cardiac disease and further cerebral
changes At the present time the indica-
tions are not so favorable as formerly for
a degree of recovery of which there has
appeared reason for being hopeful. but his
mental improvement is likely to continue,
and he may be expected to become well
enough to return to his own home In my
opinion he should never resume the cares
of active life nor undertake any business
responsibilities, and he may live but a few
years.
