The insurrectos' place their own dead at nineteen and the wounded at ten.
 The Associated Press correspondent says there are thirty-three dead, but is unable to determine to which side they belong. The government officials insist that Navorro has put the revo- mtionists in small bands. while the latter state they are stronger than ever and predict an early battle in which they will Outnumber NavOrro and defeat him.
 In yesterdays battle a regiment of revolutionists fought General Ma varro to a standstill. although they were inferior in numbers. Seventy four persons are known to have been killed on both sides. Navarro took no prisoners. as it is contrary to his orders. and in his camp today there are no wounded from either side, as the bayonet had completed the work of the bullet.

SPEAKER IS sIDEsTEPPED
Senator Bristow of Kansas Holds Up the Omnibus Bill for a Day The Con test for Location of the Panama Exposition.

Washington. Dec. 14.-Mild filibus- ters marked the sessions in both houses of congress today. In the senate prac- tically the entire time was taken up by Senator Bristow of Kansas. whose opposition to the French spOliatiOn claims included in the ombnibus bill prevented the passags of that meas ure.
 What for an hour threatened a re- newal of the bitter fight on the rules marked the opening of house busi- ness when opposition developed to talk ing up the bill for the modification and revision of the laws relating to the judiciary. Speaker Cannon declined to decide whether the house could take up the measure from the calendar as it had had it up for consideration on the previous Wednesday. Accordingly the house by vote of 146 to 51 decided to take up the bill. It was still being considered when the house adjourned.
