ing defeats they have experienced dt ring
the lnsurreetion. The American loss VAS
eight wounded The fearful dispar.ty be-
tween the American and insurgsnt loses

OF having larger percentage of marks

SUPREME COURT REPORTS.
Bill for Further DistributiOn Of the
Documents Recommended.

The Committee on the Judiciary Of the
House of Representatives has recommend
ed the passage of the bill to provide for
the further distribution of the Reports of
the Supreme Court.
The committee in It's report says: The
Government in the transaction of its bust
ness is penny wise and pound foolish
when 1t fails to provide its officers with
those books absolutely essential 10 the
proper discharge of their duties. The
Reports of the Supreme Court of the
United States ought 10 be at hand in every
Government building where United States
courts are held.
THE judges cannot take the reports
with them when holding court, and il en-
tails vast expense to suspend proceedings
and send out into the town or city for
such reports when required by the judge
during the progress of trial. In the va
rious Departments Of the Government at
Washington the public business is many
times seriously delayed because such re-
ports are not available for immediate con-
sultation, and the same is true with the
Supreme Court OF the United States. The
members of the House are familiar with
the fact that the absence of these reports
from some OF the committee rooms delays
the work of the committees and frequently
puts the members TO great inconvenience.
In many cases provided for by this bill
the officers and departments have incom-
plete sets, and there is no provision of
law for filling them. The growth of the
business OF the country and the increase
in the business at the Departments AID
the Importance Of the decisions of our
highest court have become so great that
the provisions of law heretofore made do
not meet the requirements.
"The committee has added the provi-
sion providing twenty complete sets of
said reports for the use of the committees
Of the House for the reason that the ad-
ditional expense is but slight compared
with the vast benefits that will be con-
ferred. The committee strikes out the
provision giving an additional set to each
of the Justices of the Supreme Court of
the United States, as they express their
willingness TO have that done if furnished
with the other copies provided for their
use under the provisions OF the bill
"A proviso is added that no distribution
shall be made to any place where the
court is not held in a building owned by
the United States. In such places there
would be no place where such reports
could be kept and cared for"

lodge them was likely 10 prove a difficult
task, but led by their impetuous chief the
Americans forced their way across the
Mindlot River and beat the insurgents
back through the thorn bush.
Colonel Burkheimer then disposed COM
panies \ and so that their line would
eventually join that of companies B and ID.
The insurgents behind the barricades at
the stone bridge were so occupied with
the attack that was being made on the
front as to be unaware of the fact that
their left flank had been struck al Severe
blow. After he had begun 10 drive the
rebels through the woods IN confusion Col
onel Burkheimer's greatest apprehension
was that the men Of b and ID might mis-
take their comrades of A and for rebels
and fire into them, so he ordered compan
les a and C to give three cheers. The
cheers were given with such a hearty good
will that above the roar of battle the men
of companies b and d heard the glorious
hurrah. which meant that the insurgents
flank had been turned. and victory was
about to perch upon the banner OF the
United States. With an answering cheer
the men of b and D companies pressed the
attack upon the insurgents front as the
rebel line began TO crumble and break
along the left of the line of trenches. The
FeuedtluB inauTTtc-OS Ddu 10 run a CANT
let of fire at close range from 4. b. and d
of the Twenty eighth Infantry, and the
field piece of Battery F. of the Fifth Ar
tillery. The retreat became an utter rout,
and the insurgents were literally slaugh-
tered.
THE exact number of insurgents killed
and wounded in the affair at Putol is I'M
known, but TO say that 100 dead were left
on the field. and at least $50 were wound
ed, is not placing the estimate too high.
In one of the trenches, within distance
of 200 yards sixty-five of the rebel slain
We're counted; nine more We're piled up in
bunch where the fight had occurred in
the woods, and besides these there were In
surrectOs who had fought their last fight
scattered all over the field. The insur-
gent commander was killed, and Charles
johnson, deserter from Battery l.. of the
Sixth Artillery. was found with the top
CT his head blown off. Johnson had on the
uniform of an insurgent lieutenant, but
commission as a major In the rebel army
was found in his pocket, and it is supposed
that he had just been promoted.
THE fight, which began at 7:S0 O'Clock
that morning, was all over by . O'Clock.
In an hour and half, with a force OF 100
men, the Americans had attacked a
strongly entrenched position held by

able TO secure a vote before the end of
the present week unless something entirely
unexpected happens 10 prevent.
The Republican steering committee
having announced that it is the intention
10 secure an adjournment of the Senate
early in June, both sides seem TO be
anxious TO have as. much accomplished be-
fore that time as is possible, and it is
generally understood that before any
other important matter can be taken up
the Philippine bill must be gotten out of
the way. When the Quay case was per-
mitted TO go over on saturday, Mr..
Chandler announced that on some day OF
this week. possibly today, he would ask
to have the Senate fix day for taking
vote on it, He said he would insist that
Senators who are ready to speak should
DO so today. Mr.. Burrows has stated that
the opposition to Mr.. Quay will be ready
to go on with The case this week, and
probably today. but it, as he said early
last week, there are ten or twelve Sena-
tors who desire TO speak on this subject.
a delay OF another week or two may be ex-
pecred before vote will be taken.
Ii seems 10 be the general opinion that
every effort is being made to delay the
consideration of this case and just how
much success will attend efforts in that
direction II a Oh speculation. ne
friends of Mr.. Quay are determined TO
prevent further delay by having a dag
fixed for a vote, and active efforts 10 ac-
complish that object will be made this
week.
The Indian Appropriation bill, which is
in charge OF Mr.. ThIrston, will be taken
up today or tomorrow, and. as soon as an
agreement is reached on the amendments
now pending, VIII be passed. Mr.. Thurs
ton said on saturday that he thought the
bill could be disposed of in an hour but
after spending all of that afternoon in the
consideration of amendments very little
was accomplished, and it is probable that
several hours Will be required TO reconcile
conflicting opinions On some of the pro-
visions of the bill.

The bill in relation to the suppression
Of Instruction in. and to the government
OF, the Philippine islands, will continue to
be the unfinished business in the Senate
this week, and as such will have the right
fof way each day after O'Clock Mr..
Lodge in charge of the bill, gave notice
last Friday that, on Wednesday of this
week he would ask the Senate 10 take a
vote on it, or to FIX time for taking a
vote, so that it may be disposed of as soon
as possible. He stated that he knew Of
three or four Senators who aspired TO
speak on the measure, but that there has
been good deal of debate on il already
and though he had no desire TO hurry
the matter unduly, he was anxious to have
It disposed Of so as to make way for other

There seems TO be no intention on the
part of any Senator TO object to the early
consideration of the Philippine bill and,
as its passage is practically conceded, the
vote will be largely a formal matter, and
will simply define the position of each
member of the Senate CT the question of

AS these ugly missiles exploded over the
! heads of the Americans il was at first
| thoaght that the enemy was firing shrap-
mel. The discharge was Immediately fol-
| lowed by heavy volleys from the barg'icade
| on the bridge and the entertainments on
the river bank. The flower of the insur
gent forces in Cavite occupied the trenches
and as the insurgent bugles all along the
line sounded Viva Filipino there was no
mistaking the defiance and enthusiasm
which prevailed in the ranks of the en-
envy.
But II the rebels were sanguine and
eager for the fray the Americans were
never Drawer or more determined. Though
the American t:ooDs were outnumbered.
their line overlapped with the enemy
strongly entrenched on either flank and
il was the first fight for many of them.
Colonel Burkheimer's men went in with
all the zeal and persistence imaginable.

within thirty yards of the insurgent bar
ricade. the stout-hearted lads of the Fifth
Artillery answered the wells of the in
surgents with well-directed shells
THE scouts OF the Twenty eighth In
fantry took cover behind the dykes and
ridges in the rice fields near by and
speedily impressed the rebels with the SUI
periority of American craftsmanship.
Companies q and d were swinging into
position on the right of the road with a
fieldpiece to hammer away on the
enemy's left. as though the main attack
was to be made in front at that point.
Expecting that the insurgents would at
tempt a stubborn defence at the stone
bridge, like the good soldier he is. Colonel
Burkheimer prepared for just such an
emergency. While the column was at
Cavite Niejo, Companies A and C were
detached from il and directed to make a
detour through the rice fields so as to
strike the enemy on the right flank. In
asmuch as this movement was not com
peted as quickly as Colonel Burkheimer
anticipated, two officers were sent to the
delayed companies with instructions TO
accelerate matters.

The fire of the artillery and infantry,

having ! good effect but because the
Americans made no advance the rebels
still believed they had the best of it.
Anxious to strike the decisive blow as

went himself TO where Companies 4 and

enemy at long range. ne ordered a rush
