PHILIPPINE CAMPAIGN
The Last Week One of the Blood
lest of the War.
THE INSURGENTS VERY AGGRESSIVE.
Gen. Pio dol Pillars Band Reappears-
spani, Prisoners from Tayabas Ar
rive at Manila--Kailroad Track
DPstroyed by Insurgents.

Manila, April 23.-Last week has
been one of the bloodiest of the war
since the first days fighting around
Manila. Authentic reports, mostly
official, show a total of 37S Filipinos
killed, IL officers and PA men cap
tured and many more wounded. The
number wounded is hardly guessable.
Considering that the Filipinos entirely
lack hospital facilities, IA great ma
iority of the wounded will die. Prob
ably the weeks work finished 1,00n
insurgents. The Americans loss was
0 killed and 16 wounded. Two SER
geants and one private were killed in
nmbushes while escorting provision
trains.
The insurgents have been aggres-
sive i'm almost every province of Luz
zun. Gen. Pho del Pillars band, NUM-
beriug 800, which was out of sight for
three months, the leader being re-

Miguel, consisting Of their companies
of the Thirty-ffth infantry with Il
gatling, a three hours fight, during
night attack. The loss of the in
surgcnts in this engagement is not
included i'm the foregoing total, as
they removed their dead and wounded,
but presumably it was considerable.
Twenty-Five rilipinos in the prov
ince of Satangas, attacked Lieut..
Wendc, who with eight men was
scouting near San Jose. The lieu-
tenant and five men were wounded
and one private was killed.
Sergt. Lcdoius, of the Thirty-ffth
infantry. was badly wounded in an
ambush near Baliuug. Lieut.. Batch,
of the Thirty-scyenth infantry, with
20 men, had five hours fight with
400 insurgents i'm the Nueva Gaceras

FOREST FIRES.


Duluth, Mimi, April 23.-Reports
from the forest fire district were very
mcagrc yesterday, but from the best
information obtainuble the worst of
the scare is over and the fires are
dying down. The excitement among
the settlers and inhabitants of the
timber towns. which was intense for
Il day or two, has disappeared. a
good many thousands of dollars dam
lge was done, however, and owing to
the unusually dry condition of un-
derbrush and timber, danger is not
altogether removed. Rain is anxious
ly looked for and until it comes
anxiety will continue. A report
reached the city last night from Lake
side, a suburb six miles east of here,
that timber few miles north of
there was burning and the fire ap-
peared to be widening in its area quite
rapidly The wind is from the south
but not strong, although enough to
carry the blaze in that direction.

HENRY DECKER WRITES
Tells of Strife With Bushwhackers
and Tussles With Earth
Quakes

The following interesting letter
from Henry Decker who is soldering
in the Philippines is kindly loaned
the REGISTER by his father, County
Treasurer NJ l.. Decker.
LoAAG, y. l., March II.
NJ. l.. Decker, lola.
Dear Father and Mother:-It has
been some time since | wrote to you
but have tried to let some one hear
from me on each mail so you know
am still among the living and in the
best OF health. | am getting along as
nicely as / could any place. Our
duties are not very heavy now, about
all we do IL to 90 out on reconnois-
sances trips for two or five days after
few small bands of gUgus that are
i'm the mountains. We are very sell
dom successful in catching very many
on account of the rough mountain
roads, which afford such good places
to get away. A bout all the trouble
is in small villages that are not gar
risoned by troops. They rob the
natives and kill a few American
sympathlzers, but such thing as an
Iusurrecto army is a thing of the
past. OF course, small bands can do
some damage such as ambushing
small parties of Americans and kill
ing few. really think this very
thing will be a good thing for us as
the natives see their mistake much
| quicker on account of our protecting
them, which was never done before
by the Spaniards.
My honest opinion is that Ameri-
can troops will have to be kept here
for many years to come and large
number too. / feel we should kee p
these islands now at any cost.
would stay here five years myself
and do campaign work all the time
before | would be in favor of giving
them up. Thiswill he a great country
sometime, the resources are some-
thing wonderful.
Say, l had great shaking up last
night by an earthquake. The first
thing l knew of it | was trying t.
pick myself up Off the floor, all shook
to pieces almost. The shock was 30
great that a man standing on the
ground was unable to stand up.
There are two things I'have enough
of, that is storm at sea and an earth.

self, you have to take it as she comes
DO you get the Orient newspaper

some two months or more now.
have no idea when the 34th will
be sent back to the States, but feel
cure we will be the fret Volunteers
to go as we have had the hardest
campaigning of any of the troops
here and also we were the first tC
land here in October.
I'have not received that Christmas
box yet. 1 am afraid it has been lost

Western Union will Move.

Arrangements have been completed
by which the Western Union tele-
graph office will be moved from its
present quarters in the REGISTER
building to the room on west Madison
avenue now occupied by the Wells
Fargo Express office, both companies
sharing the office. The change will
be made as soon as they make the
necessary changes in their wires. The
new location being on the ground
floor, centrally located, will undoubt-
edly give general satisfaction as 1t
will be more convenient than an
office on the second floor.

Greater lola.

The complete plat of lola which T..
s. Slower made for the city is now
framed and ON exhibition at the city
hall and it shows what progress the
old town has been making in the
past few years. 1T was originally
eight blocks vide and fourteen blocks
long, each block having twelve lots,
and the only addition for years was
Rhoads addition on the southeast OF
a dozen blocks. Today the city ex-
tends a mile and quarter each way
and contains $50 blocks ranging in
sizes from two lots to twenty-siX lots.
There are 1876 regular blocks OF
twelve lots each, twenty-five with
fourteen, thirty-three with five and
the others scattering. And the
whole layout of lots reaches the
respectable sum of 3,O88. Even with
this increase the town is more thickly
built upon than was the old town.

Will Ask You

The enumerators will be furnished
which are to be worn in conspicuous
place 80 as to be plainly seen, and
which Will be their credentials for
gathering their statistics. These
badges will be made of German silver,
one and one-fourth inches wide by
one and five-eighth inches long,

eagle and bearing the words, "United

which they were designed. The
