Blood Cost of War In the Philippine
Islands.
Washington, July 24.-Major James
Parker, of the adjutant generals Of
fee, has compiled some interesting
statistics regarding the insurrection
in the Philippines. There were 1861
engagements with the enemy, more o.
less serious, between Feb. 4, 1899
the date of the battle of Manila, and
April 30 1902 which is fixed as the
virtual downfall of the insurrection.
The larger proportion of these fights
were attacks from ambush on the
American troops or skirmishes in
which only small detachments took
part.
I'm almost no cases in these en-
gagements," says Major Parker, "did
American troops surrender or have 70
retreat or have to leave their dead
and wounded in possession of the en-
emy, Notwithstanding that in many
cases the percentage of loss was
high"
The number of troops that have been
transported to the Philippines and
have arrived there up to July 16 last
was Abs officers and 123,803 men.
The average strength, taken from
monthly returns, for the period of the
insurrection, was approximately 40,'
600.
Major Parker summarizes the cas-.
ualties of the American army as fol-
lows: Killed or died of wounds, 60
officers and 936 enlisted men; deaths
from disease, AZ officers and 1885 en-
listed men; deaths from accidents, 6
officers and 257 enlisted men; drowned,
officers and 257 enlisted men; sui
eide, 10 officers and 72 enlisted men;
murdered, l officer and 81 enlisted
men. Total deaths, 139 officers and
2,707 enlisted men, a total of 1897;
killed and wounded and deaths other
than by disease, 2S2 officers and 4,188
enlisted men. Total 4,470.
A large proportion of the deaths by
drowning occurred in action or in ac.
tive operations against the enemy.

SEVERED WoMAN's JUGuLAR,
Mysterious Murder Is Committed In
CITY of Pittshnrn.

"ySkSlIouS WuTueT is COmmltteu III
City of Pittsburg
Pittsburg, Pa, July 24-One of the
most mysterious murders in the city's
history was committed last night in
a drinking room in the rear of the
Traction hotel The victim Is Agnes
King, of 1S9 Crawford street. The mur.
derer, who escaped is unknown.
The story Is that the woman and
man had been drinking together since
Monday at different saloons, and the
carousal ended in quarrel which was
renewed last night when the couple
met on High street. The woman went
into the hotel bar and took a seat in
the rear room. The man followed
her and asked her If she would keep
up the bluff" This question was re-
peated three times and each time an
swered in the negative.
Quick as a flash the man pulled
dirk and made lunge at the woman,
cutting her under the ear. A second
slash severed the jugular. Then the
murderer stepped out a side door and
escaped. At midnight he was still
at large. The victim died while in
che patrol wagon on the way to hos
pital. The only witness to the muir
der was a woman who happened to be
in the room when the couple entered.
She says the whole affair was enacted
so quickly she could give no descrip-
tion of the murderer.
