Manila, Nov. 25.--Capt. Edward p.
Lawton's company OF the 18th infant
ry has attacked and captured an In.
surgent fort on Bohol island, south Of
Cebu. in the vizayan group.
This fort was surrounded on all sides
by a precipice and the only entrance
to the higher ground was guarded by
a stockade with line OF entrench-
ments behind 1t. Capt. Lawton sent
Sergt. McMahon and 90 men to climb
the precipice and attack the fort In
the rear. Sergt. McMahon's party ac-
complished their task after three
hours climbing through the thick un.
dergrowth of brush and vines that COW
cred the almost perpendicular clir.
They took the enemy by surprise and
drove them from the fort. AS the in
surgents escaped they had to pass the
remainder of Capt. Lawton's company
at a distance of 150 yards. Here the
enemy suffered terrible losses.
The insurgents defended themselves
with both cannon and rifles. The can
non were captured. the smaller ones
were removed while the larger ones
were buried. Capt. Lawton, in his re.
port. makes special mention for bra.
very Of Sergts. List and Mcmahon.
The local steamer Alerta. with 200
passengers. including some discharged
American soldiers from Olongapo, Su-

mits that Caballos has 1000 men with
