suited as before.
Fought Hand.to-H Hand.
Material for filling the ditch was
prepared at once, and detailed in
structions were given to the Off
GERS of the assaulting lines to be
composed of Company c, 9th in
fantry, under Lieutenant Shaw;
Troop L, 18th cavalry, dismounted
under Captain Kirkpatrick, and one
Maxine gun, under Captain McNair.
All in readiness, the infantry ad-
vanced toward the east face of the
fort, and the cavalry, with the
mountain gun between the two pla-
toons, the north face.
Under the protection of the fire
Of this line the ditch at the point Of
crossing, opposite the middle of the
east face, was filled with fallen
trees, and a bamboo bridge was
thrown across by Company M,
Twenty-seventh Infantry, and
Troop A, Fifteenth Cavalry, under
Lieutenants Oracle and Lear, re-
spectively, Lieutenant Peek, En-
gineer corps, Immediately directing
the work. Within 20 minutes this
was accomplished without casualty,
and men Of Company c, Company
NJ and Troop A, hurriedly crossed
to the bernie and sprung upon the
parapet, encountering Moros in
hand-to-hand combat, who rushed
with campilans and krises from the
BERN galleries and interior of the
fort to meet them.
Moros Slaughtered.
Three men were wounded al
most instantly, but short work was
made of the remaining Moros, who
in all parts of the fort continued to
fight desperately to the death. The
plan of assault was executed in
every detail. 1t was a brilliant ac-
ton and one never to be forgotten
by those who engaged, and the gal
lantry displayed by our troops has
seldom been equalled.
1T is said that there were in the
beginning over 200 Moros in the
fort, several of whom escaped the
first day and night, and just before
the assault the number was put at
from 50 to 100. Sixty Moros were
found dead at the fort and trenches,
among those killed being the Panan-
DUNCAN of Bacolo, the leader of OPP
position to the Americans; Datto
Macasasa, Datto Tundia, Datto An

Weapons In Ashes.
"On account of the danger from
cholera, minute inspection of the
interior was not deemed safe, and
the fort was at once ordered burned.
Many rifle barrels and kris blades
were found in the ashes, together
with six cannons and seven lantacas,
which were destroyed with gunpow-
der. "Our casualties in the Bacolod

fort proper were five men wounded

ed. According to conservative re-
ports of friendly Moros, 80 Macolod
Moros were filled in the fighting in
that vicinity in addition to those
mentioned above, making 100 in all,
besides renegades from Taraca,
Pindalunan, Binidayan, and other
places.
"The dimensions of Fort Bacolod
included within the walls of the
parapet were about 80 by 100 feet.
The walls were II feet high, Is feet
thick at the base, and faced with
stone on the outside. A bernie IL
feet wide extended entirely around
the fort, under which were con-
structed galleries, and both the fort
and bernie were covered with aba
boo and earth. The fort proper and
the galleries were used as a dwell
ing by the family of the Panandun-
gan and many of his people. The
parapet was loopholed for rifle fir,
and contained embrasures for can
non and lantacas and series of
bamboo loopholes extended entire
ly around the edge of the BERNIE for
rifle fire from the galleries.

Disorders Sunday.

During all the disorder and riot
ing of Sunday night c. E. Schmidt
Of the Chenoweth Film company,
1905 Farnam street, risked his life
with 4 camera to Shoot" pictures
of the firing of the court house, the
lynching of Will Brown, negro, and
the reckless shooting of the mob.
In one instance eight men held
Schmidt above their heads near the
north entrance of the court house
in order that authentic pictures of
the fray might be snapped.
At the request of officials Of the
Chamber of Commerce the pietures
will not be shown in Omaha. Al
ready theaters in Des Moirtes, Sioux
City, Lincoln, Kearney, Columbus,
Atlantic, Ia, and Council Bluffs
have received prints of the lynch
ing and are showing them.
City officials in Grand Island re-
fused to allow the pictures to be
shown there because of racial feel
ing existing there, according to a
telegram received by Schmidt from
S. A. Hayman, manager of a theater
in that city.
BY noon Monday, prints of the
pictures were on their way to New
York City to be shown there, pro-
viding they are permitted.
1.-THE films are in favor of law
enforcement and for the betterment
of the community" Mr.. Schmidt
declared.
Scenes of Mayor Smith taken 10
days ago are also depicted in the
print Taking of the fire scene Of
the court house was a difficult task,
Schmidt said, because of the dark
ness. However, the night scene is
shown plainly in the pictures.
