    A Fierce Battle In the Vicinity
of Tagulg.
THE REBELS SEVERELY PUNISHED
In the Dnrknesa TITO Americans Are
Killed mid Twenty Wounded Lieuten
ant Frank Jones Among fallen 1'rop-
crty of Insurgents Valued at 8800,000
Is Destroyed and Over Two Hundred
Native * Killed.
MANILA , March 20. Some of the
rebels recently expelled from Cavlte
and small towns in the vicinity of
Pasig combined forces and last night
as already cabled attacked a com
pany of the Washington volunteers ,
a detached post at Tagulg , about a
mlle and a half southeast of Pasls ,
General Wheaton Immediately rein
forced the Americans with two com
panies each of the Washington and
Oregon regiments. The post had held
the enemy in check and the fire of the
reinforcing companies repulsed them ,
driving them across to an Island form
ed by the estuary. They wore thus in
control of the Twenty-second regi
ment.
On discovering that they wore en
trapped the rebels fought desperately ,
n.dcd materially by the Jungle and the
darkness , but they wore completely
routed with heavy loss after two
V hours' fighting.
The Americans lost two killed and
twenty wounded , among the latter be
ing Lieutenant Frank Jones.
General Wheaton determined to
punish the natives , and at daybreak
today his brigade started In the fol
lowing order : The Sixth artillery ,
holding the extreme right ; the Oregon
gen volunteers , heading the center ;
the Washington regiment keeping tote
t-e endge of the lake and the 'i wenty-
second regulars occupying the right
of the line which swept the whole
country along the lake , In a south
easterly direction , toward General
Ovenshlno's position.
The line thus extended over two
miles of country , which was rough and
covered with thick Jungle , advanced
eleven miles. The enemy lied , the last
of them being seen about 4:30 : o'clock
this afternoon. At scarcely any time
did the Americans get within 1.200
yards of thorn.
The troops are r-turninc to Paslc ;
tonight , exhausted by the hard work
under a hot sun
The Oregon regiment had one man
killed and four wounded and the
Twenty-second regulars ono wounded.
According to the official reports no
fewer than 200 Filipinos were killed
General Otis says the American
army and gunboats now command the
lake. Ho estimates that property of
the Insurgents valued nt ? 500,000 has
been destroyed , while quantities of
rice and sugar and -100 tons of coal ,
which is very valuable hero , have
- { been captured.
Many prisoners represent that the
Filipino soldiers are weakening. The
generous treatment that the Ameri
cans administer to the native prison
ers nnd wounded seems to Influence
the Insurgent army powerfully.
In the opinion of the Americans ,
however , the Filipino leaders will con
tinue to provoke fighting Just as long
as they can retain their hold upon
their followers , because they have
everything to gain and nothing to
loso.
loso.Tho
The enemy have twice as many men
on their firing lines as they have
arms , and the fact that so few arms
are captured by the Americans is because -
cause the guns of the wounded Filipinos
pines and many of those who surren
der are spirited away.
The armed tugs Laguna do Bay and
Oeste have returned to San Pedro
Macatl and reported the result of their
tour of the lake. On Friday morning
last they shelled the town of Moreng ,
the rebels Ileelng without making any
response to the fire. The Americans
landed , a party , which destroyed a
quantity of stores and nil the stone
buildings except the church.
The expedition then proceeded to
Majayjay , where a sugar mill and saw
mill were destroyed.
On arriving at Santa Cruz , a town
of 1,200 inhabitants , it was learned
that the enemy was strongly en
trenched and prepared to defend the
position , assisted by two gunboats and
several launches. Moreover , the mouth
of the river was blocked with rocks
j and bamboo.
A few shells caused an exodus of
the citizens , but not of the enemy's
troops. The Americans did not at
tempt a landing.
Captain Grant , who is in charge of
the expedition , asks for reinforce
ments and will probably take Santa
Cruz tomorrow.
Many Are Unidentified.
WASHINGTON , March 20. The
quartermaster's department has re

RIOTING IN HAVANA.
rollco Attempt to M.untiiln Order nnd
Are 1'lrcd Upon.
HAVANA , March 20. A serious
conflict between the police and the
people of Havana last night resulted
In much shooting and clubbing. From
thirty to fifty people were wounded ,
some seriously. Among the injured is
Police Captain Kstnmpes , formerly a
colonel In the Cuban army.
Ever since the police Interference
about a week ago with the demonstra
tion in honor of General Gomez , the
police have been unpopular with tha
populace , who Jeer at them and declare -
clare them Inefficient. Certain news
papers let no opportunity escape to
criticise the force , denouncing the ar
rests as unfair and charging the police
with "trampling upon the rights of
free people. "
The police arc virtually in the po
sition of men who have to make the
people fear them In order to sccuro
obedience us they have no record to
fall back upon for example.
Last night's trouble occurred at a
public mulatto ball hi San Jose street ,
an unsavory quarter of Havana.
Many Cuban officers , colonels and cap-
talns among thorn , attended the a'-
falr. A policeman on duty in that
street , following orders to prevent a
crowd collecting In front of the build
ing where the ball was In progrei- ; ? ,
asked a group of men to go in or dis
perse. His request was unheeded and
aftcc repeating it he was attacked by
the group , whereupon many men is
sued from the building , sot upon him ,
took away his club and revolver and
handled him roughly.
The policeman Immediately notified
headquarters , who ordered twenty re
serves to the scene of the trouble. The
crowd had prepared for tholr arrlvul.
It is said they opened with a revolver
fire upon the police , which the latter
returned , the shooting being kept up
until the ammunition was exhausted.
The opponents of the police acted with
determination In the affray.
Many who were In the building
mounted to the roof , which Is com
paratively low , and fired from uv.t
point. They were apparently well
armed and this fact , togcthei witt. ue
resolution with which they fought ,
seems to confirm the belief that rho
attacking party was moat'in. . i y
of Cuban officers , as ordinary civil
ians would have lied from the revolvers
vers of the police.
Many women were wounded. A re
port Is In circulation this evening that
two of the Injured civilians have uc-
cumbed to their wounds , but this Is
not confirmed. Among those serious
ly hurt are Policeman Donate Aio/.a ,
Enrique Munoz and Benlgue Vasqurz
and Civilians Jose Domlngucz , Etoao
nnd Gallato , Alberto Aleja and Irene
Roquqo.
Public opinion respecting the police
is conflicting. Some sustain them nnd
other charge them with interfering
with the rights of the people. As iho
facts become known , however , opinion
is increasing in favor of the force.
It is reported on good authority
that many were wounded who wit'i-
drew hastily because unwilling to have
it known they were present.
American troops were called to the
scene when the trouble was over and
numerous arrests followed. Police
Captain Estampes , who Is well kno'vu
In Cuban military circles , Is so badly
Injured that fears are entertained that
ho will not recover.
Police Inspcctoi Uaoul Arango , who
came Into notice on the day of the
Gomez demonstration , because of hla
attempts to break up the procession ,
nnd who subsequently challenged Gen
eral Allejando Rodriguez , chief of staff
of General Gomez , for having accused
him of clubbing a woman , is credited
with coolness and bravery In his ef
forts to restore order.
Numerous permits have been issued
for similar balls this evening including
ono for an affair at the same house
and It Is feared that there may bo
further trouble. Those who ought to
know say thatt they are really against
the law and that the permits should
be revoked.
Major General Ludlow , military gov
ernor of the Department of Havana ,
desires to be relived of his duties , and
to go to the Philippines. It is undei-
stood that ho has applied to the War
department for a transfer and lias
strenuously urged that It be mado. Ho
is weary of the details of city admin
istration.
