Manila, I.?c. 19. Major General
Henry W. Lawton has been shot and
killed at San Miitoo. Ho wan stand
injj in front of his troops, was shot in
the broaat and died lmmodlatoly.
General Liwton started from
Manila last niht with cavalry under
Ciptnln I socket t and battalions of the
Twenty-fifth and Twenty-seventh in
fantry under Lieutenant Colonel Sar
gent, for the purpone of capturing San
Mateo, where (ieronomo was said to
haveMM) insurgents.
General Lnwton left home Monday
night and hud returned from his
northern oporations Saturday to lead
an expedition through Mariquina val
ley, which has bet n an insurgent
ntronghold throughout the war. The
valley hnn poveral times been invaded,
but never held by the Americans.
(lonoral Geronomo was supposed to
have there the largest organized force
north of Manila, and General Otis
wished to garrison Mariquina. The
night was one of the worst f the sen
con. A terrific rain had begun and is
still continuing.
On a Midnight March.
Accompmied by his staff and Troop
I, Fourth cavalry. General Lawton set
out at 5) o'clock in advance of the main
force, consisting of the Kleventh cav
alry and one battalion each of the
Twentieth and Twenty-seventh in
fantry, which started from La Loma
at midnight. With a e mall escort he
led the way through nn almost path
less country, a distance of fifteen miles
over hills and through canebrake and
deep mud, the hordes climbing the
rocks and sliding down the hills. Be
fore daybreak the command had
reached tho head of the valley.
San Mateo was attacked at 8 o'clock
and a three hours' fight ensued. This
resulted in but few casualties on the
American side apart frem the death
of General Liwton, but the attack was
difficult because of the natural de
fenses of the town.
General Liwton was walking along
the Gring line within 300 yards of a
small sharpshooters'-trencb, conspic
uous in the big white helmet he al
ways wore, and a light yellow rain
coat. He was also easily distinguish
able because of his commanding stat
ure. The sharpshooters directed several
close shots, which clipped the grass
nearby. His staff officers called Gen
eral Law ton's attention to the danger
he was in, but he only laughed with
his usual contempt for bullots.
Suddenly he exclaimed, "I am shot,"
clenching his hands in a desperate ef
fort to stand erect, and fell into the
arms of a staff officer.
Body Laid On a Stretcher.
Orderlies rushed across the field for
surgeons, who dashed up immediately,
but their efforts were useless. The
body was taken to a clump of bushes
and laid upon a stretcher, the familar
white helmet covering the face of the
dead general.
Almost at this moment the cheers of
the American troops rushing into San
Mateo were miDgling with the rifle
volleys.
After the fight six stalwart cavalry
men forded the river to the town, car
rying the litter on their shoulders, the
staff preceding with the colors and a
cavalry escort following.
The troops filed, bareheaded,
through the building where the body
was laid, and many a tear fell from
the eyes of men who had long followed
the intrepid Lawton. The command
was stricken with grief, as though
each man had suffered a personal loss.
Owing to the condition of the
country, which is impassable so far as
vehicles are concerned, the body could
not be brought to Manila today. Mrs.
Liwton and the children are living in
a government house
San Mateo lies by a high mountain
and a broad and shallow stream in
front, with wide sandbars which the
insurgent trenches and the buildings
command.
The Americans were compelled to
ford the river under fire. It was while
they were lying in the rice fields and
volleying across preparatory to pass
ing the stream that General Lawton
was shot. All except the officers were
behind cover. A staff officer was
wounded about the same time and one
other officer and seven men were
wounded.
After three hours' shooting the Fil
ipinos were dispersed into the moun
tains. Colonel Lockett took command
when General Lawton fell.

General Law ton' death was a great

was known personally. Hitherto his

ISSUI3S A PROCLAMATION.
(eneral 11 rook e Congratulates Cubans On
Their Wonderful Progress.
Havana, Dec. 19. General Brooke
will issue tomorrow the following
proclamation:
"By direction of the president I
hereby transfer to my successor.Major
General Leonard Wood, the duties and
responsibilities of the office of military
governor, bespeaking for him that
support and confidence which you
have come to accord me. To those
who have been associated with me in
the performances of the difficult task
of reorganizing and placing in opera
lion the civil government of the isl
and, I hereby tender this expression
of appreciation and thnnks for their
loyal and patriotic support and assist
ance. "A year ago I found the country
most thoroughly devastated, its re
sources and commerce destroyed and
its rural population gathered into
towns without food and without shelter
and dying of starvation and exposure
The government of the United States
immediately supplied work and food.
"In a short time this condition
passed away and now .he country is
rapidly pressing forward to a prosper
ity httherto unknown in its history.
Look about and see how true this is.
The various steps that have led to the
present condition are well known to
you and need not be mentioned here.
Tho change is truly marvelous. With
out the semblance of civil government
then you have now a complete or
ganization. Your municipal and prov
incial governments are all in the
hands of your own citizens. The mili
tary control is purely advisory and
supervisory. Many of jour laws have
been modified and changed to suit the
times in which you live, as well as the
interests of good government. Your
courts have been reorganized and are
in operation. Peace reigns. Law and
order rule.
"By 3-our own industry and by a
careful observance of these conditions
the full restoration of your social af
fairs and prosperity is assured. With
the feeling that the future is in your
hands, to make or to mar, and trust
ing that wise counsels may prevail
among you, I say to you farewell."
General Wood's arrival is looked for
tomorrow. The division will be rep
resented by Generals Chaffee, Rich
ards and Humphrey and the depart
ment by Adjutant General Scott and
aide-de-camp. These officers will
meet the vessel, going down the har
bor in tugs. General Brooke made a
call upon Captain Sigsbee on board
the Texas, receiving a salute of seven
teen guns.
THROWN FROM A BUGGY.
Daughter of Joe Tnbbs Meets With An
Accident on Chicago Avenue.
From Wednesday's Daily.
A daughter of Joe Tubbs, who re-
resides down near Myuard, met with a
rather serious accident on Chicago
avenue last evening. She was riding
home in a single buggy, and on the
way caught up with a farmer who was
driving along in a lumber wagon.
Suddenly her horse made a lunge to
one side of the road and attempted to
pass the vehicle in front, and in so do
ing her buggy came in contact with a
telephone pole the torce of the col'
lision throwing the young lady out
onto the ground.
She was quickly picked up and
brought down town, and DrvLivings-
ton dressed the wounds which she
sustained. Her face 'was" badly
scratched and bruised, but as there
were no bones broken it is not
thought any serious results will fol
low.

The concert given by the li. & M.

was attended by a large number of
music-loving people of this city, very
nearly every teat in the ball belog oc
pld. It was feared by some before the
concert that the band could not play
to advantage in a small hall, but they
were agreeably surprised when they
heard the soft strains, and each num
ber was thoroughly enjoyed. Besides
the selections by the band were a
number of solos the first being a
vocal eolo by Miss Florence White,
"Shubert's Serenade," which she
sang most beautifully.
The cornet solo by C. L Currier
and the saxophone solo by Leo Step-
pen wore well received. These gen
tlemen reside in Glen wood, having
played with the B. & M. band at the

Hays Allen Cannot Stop It.
Indianapolis, Dec. 19 Hugh H
Hanna, chairman of the monetary
committee, returned from Washington
at noon today. Ho witnessed the pas
sage of the bill yesterday. Asked for
an expression he replied:
"Of course I am gratified. There has
been no doubt of the fate of the bi.l in
the house for some time, but the splen
did vote by which it carried was even
better than we expected. Everything
went just a9 we wanted it to."
"What about the status of the bill?"
"I think it will pass tue senate.
though, of course, by no such vote as
the bouse gave it. W have prom
ises that some of the democrats will
vote for it there. The death of Sen
ator Hayward of Nebraska and the ap
pointment of Populist Allen in his
place robs us of one vote. But it wil
get through, I am sure."
