WASHINGTON, February 5.-The
War Department has received the re-
port of Col. Sargent, of the Twenty
ninth infantry at Manila, detailing the
action at San Meteo in which General
Lawton lost his life. The report says
Gen. Lawton had ridden all night to be
able to arrive on the scene at half
past six in the morning, but he said:
Sargent, wish to give you full swing;
go ahead with your command and
carry out your plans 1t was rather
significant that Lawton added that he
did not expect much resistance, con-
sidering that he met his death in that
engagement. Between San Mateo and
the troops lay a river which 1t was
necessary to ford, and the location OF
the ford was ascertained with great
difficulty, the enemy being strongly
intrenched in the opposite bank, and
volleying upon the troops. The report
reads:
cat this time, about or SIS a. m,
the first firing began and l dismounted
and started to the front Gen. Law
ton had already arrived on the firing
line and as I descended the hill, in
front of which was the rice field, Gen.
Lawton was coolly walking up and
down the firing line within about two
hundred and fifty yards of the enemy's
entertainments A few minutes later
Lieut.. Breckenridge was wounded and
/ saw Gen. Lawton acting as one of the
four litter-bearers helping to carry
Lieut.. Breckenridge from the field.
After helping to carry back Lieut..
Breckenridge to the generals head
quarters during the battle, he remain
ed few minutes, asked Lieut.. Brock
inridge how he felt, said a few words
TO Major Rogers about my disposition
for the right and then started back to
the firing line, was shot before he had
advanced more than a few steps. He
was shot just above the heart with
his face toward the enemy; he fell to
the ground and lived but few
moments. Thus died on the battle
field this great, brave, heroic soldier;
large of heart and large Of frame, with
an indomitable will and with power
unsurpassed of overcoming Obstacles
a soldier who had never known fear;
who knew not what fear was"

WASHINGTON February 5.-The
two most important witnesses before
the Clark Investigating committe of

and A. B. Cook, ex-State auditor Mr..
Jaqueth is one of the members in
whose name Mr.. Whiteside claimed to

for a money consideration. Both de-
MED these charges. Mr.. Jaqueth said
he had never before seen the en-
velope in which the $4,000 said to have
been intended for him had been placed.
Mr.. Cook declared that he had never

then brought up the subject himself,
suggesting that he might cast his
vote for Mr.. Clark for the Senate for
$4,000, but that he Cook had said

Heart and in sentiment.
WASHINGTON. February THE
Democrats of the House continued
their assaults upon the Philippine
policy OF the administration during
the general debate upon the diplomatic
and consular appropriation bill to-day.
Two speeches were made by Demo-
cratic members of the foreign affairs
committee, Mr.. Dinsmore, of Arkansas.
and Mr.. Champ Clark, of Missouri, OPP
posing the retention of the islands.
The speech OF Mr.. Clark, which lasted
almost two hours, was notable effort,
replete with unique epigrams, and at
tracted much attention. No Republic
can spoke in defense of the admins
tration policy to-day.
Mr.. Sibley, of Pennsylvania, who was
elected as Democrat, but who made
a speech last week defending expan-
sion, was goaded to-day into the an
nouncement that the Democrats could
consider his seat constructively upon
the Republican side. Before the de-
bate began an effort was made to pass
a bill looking to the appointment of
an expert commission to examine into
the question of the pollution OF the
water supply of cities, but it was de-
feated. The Chicago members consid-
cred that it was aimed especially at the
Chicago drainage canal.
