LONDON, Nov. 13.—(New Yo;k World Cablegram.)—The Hally Chion lcle's correspondent at Mafeklng, under date of November 3, G p. m., says: "Kurly Monday morning the enemy opened with shell fire on the town. After a half hour’s firing we sucrecd el In knocking one of thp enemy s guns out of action, whereupon the Boers retired. Shortly afterward they received reinforcements from Malma nl and again marked In force, but were again repulsed. On Tuesday the enemy opened with a heavy shell fire on an elevation we have called Canon kopje, but the excellence of the fortifications there prevented any serious damage. Later in the day the enemy shelled the town with a ninety-six pounder, also with small field artillery. A few build Ing* were wrecked by a big Blege gun and two killed. ‘On Wednesday the enemy made a general attack on all sides under cover of a very heavy ahell tire. We replied vigorously from our llltchklss seven pounders nod also pouted a raking fire from our Maxims. The enemy was < ventually driven back after a very hot engagement, throughout which all our men behaved (clth great spirit. The casualties on our side were slight. The enemy's lose Is estimated at fifty killed besides muny wounded. On Thursday shelling was resum-d at an early hour, the ninety-six-pound cr being again In evidence. Later in the day the enemy, to the strength of 2,000, took up a position to the west ward with the evident intention of making a general advance when a heavy thunderstorm broke out, nfer which the Boers retired, having fired a few volleys from rifles and Maxims. So far the shell fire has had a re markably small effect, though the en emy’s gunnery practice is excellent. The absence of a disastrous loss of life on our side is entirely due to the admi rable fortifications prepared by Baden Powell. By agreement with Joubert on No vember wounded women and civil ians and the railway and telegrapn staff were moved four miles out of town to escape the bombardment in a neutral camp. Ninety-eight of the Dundee wounded, including officers Beckett, Ilammcrsly and Adams of (he staff, Boultbee of the Rifles Berrean and 1)1 bly of the Dublin Fuailesrs, Wei don of i ho Lelcesters, were sent in un der a flag of truce on November 4.

Pouring Volley After Volley at the Fleeing Natives. MANILA, Nov. 11.—The landing of the American troops at San Fabian, Tuesday, was the most spectacular af fair of Its kind since General Shatter’s disembarkation at Baiqulrl. The co operation of the troops and the navy was complete. The gunboats main tained u terrific bombardment for an hour, while the troops rushed waist deep through the surf under a heavy but badly aimed rifle fire from the Insurgent trenches and charged right and left, pouring volley after volley at the fleeing rebels. Forty Filipinos were captured, mostly non-commis sioned officers. Several Insurgent dead and five wounded were found In a building which had suffered consider ably from the bombardment. The town was well fortified. The sand dunes were riveted with bamboo twen ty feet thick, which afforded a fine cover. When the transports arrived in the gulf they found the gunboats Prince ton, Bennington and others waiting After consultation with General Wheaton, Commander Knox of the Princeton and Commander Sheridan of the Bennington anchored two miles off shore. The gunboats formed a line Inside, the Helena, Callao und Manila close In shore. With the first gun of the bombard ment small beats were filled rapidly without confusion by Major Cronlt’s batalion of the Twenty-third infantry and Captain Buck’s battalion of the Thirteenth Infantry. While the lines of boats moved shoreward the gun boats poured the full force of their batteries Into the trenches, soon forc ing the insurgents to flee through the burrows dug back of the trenches. About 200 men held their places until the keels of the boats grated on the shore, when their Mauser bullets com menced to sing overhead. The bat talions formed in good order, Captain Buck pursued the insurgents on the left into the bamboo thickets. On the right was a frail footbridge across the river, leading to the towns. General Wheaton, personally com manding, ordered a charge across the bridge and Captain Howland of his staff led Coleman's and Elliott's com panies of the Thirteenth and Shield's company of the Twenty-third, who be haved splendidly under their first fire, into the town, which was found to be deserted except by the aged and some Spaniards who had hidden in the buf falo wallows and who came shouting delightfully toward the Americans. Two companies of the Twenty-third had a skirmish along the Dagupan road with the retreating Filipinos. Major Shields of the staff, with his command, captured several insurgents. The troops camped in the rain dur ing the night and in the morning General Wheaton established his head quarters in a church, quartered his men in the houses and sent the cap tured beyond the outposts with orders not to return. The roads were found to be practically Impassable and it is believed Aguinaldo has secreted a yacht in the river Longapo. near Subic, for use in his flight when he finds his capture is inevitable. Captain Chenowith and Lieutenants Davis, Van Horn and Bradford, with two companies of the Seventeenth regi ment, reconnoltering east of Mabala cat, attacked and routed a battalion of insurgents, killing twenty-nine of them. Three Americans were wound ed. MEETING Of THE CABINET Doniemlr I’nutiige Kates Will lie Kstwb listied In the Phlllpplnex. WASHINGTON, Nov. 11.—The cab inet meeting lasted almost three hours.
