THK MAKOH TO MALOLOfl-Conoludod they got away with many of their dond and nearly all of their wounded od , They have plenty of horses and flz up a kind of sled on which they pile their dead and wounded ; I Imvo scon them making off with dozens of thotn from the field. Wo continued to advance until 11 a.m. , when wo stopped and rested and lad lunuh ot uornod beef and hard aok ; there wo rested until about 12:30 , then changed our courao from northeast to north. Wo traveled until about an hour bcforo sun down , when wo oamo into u strong * y fortified body of the enemy ; wo had quitn a till with them until dark , when wo fell back for a dis- tanoe of about ono and a half miles to join the South Dakotos , who were supposed to bo on our loft , but who had got too far to the loft and oft quito an opening between them and UH. There wo stayed all night , ehoping on the ground without any ooveriug. At daylight wo had ) reafast ! und advanced in skirmish order all day until nearly night , when wo formed in oolmnnn of 'our and maruhod toward the rail road , striking that place near Polo. There wo oamo up just in tirno to relieve Pennsylvania and South Dakota , who had engaged the on- omy. Our boys made a brilliant charge , capturing ( ho rail road Bridge and driving out the enemy , who occupied a well entrenched ) lace along the reilroad. Thi-ru was where Nat Simuis was mortally wounded ; ho tried very hard to live ; 10 said that ho was worth more than all the niggers yot. I had stopped to dross a captain of Gen. Otis' staff , who was mortally wounded ; the ball had passed through both arms and his body ; I had not fin- shed dressing him until I was called to t > eo Siinms. Wo advanced about ono mile further and there > roparod to spend the night. Kay Skelton and the chaplain had cap tired 'a ' Filippino , and when they brought him tn he told me that his friend was shot through the thigh and ho wished to have him brought1 in. I took him and another man , and wo went about a mile through the dark and hunted him up and brought him in. There wore about 100 dead and wounded left on that field ; the wounded were all dressed jy mo and wont to Manila the next day. I took one of the prisoners that were captured aud made him my orderly ; ho oarriod my haver sack and instrument case , with ; breo or four uauteonB of water and ouoh things as that ; I kept him with mo until the last night 1 was m Malolos , when ho escaped. The next morning wo started from our oarap about 11 a. m. ; we were in reserve ; South Dakota and the Third artillery , ( who are infantry by the way , ) had stirred up a terrible nest of them about a mile further up , and there was a hard tight there. Wo finally came up and swung out on the right flank again aud rested about an hour aud bad lunub. About 5:30 the enemy made a charge on us ; wo waited until they were within a few hun dred yards , when we ( the third batallion ) ohargod them , driving them baok about two milep ; we lost nine men wounded theie. Wo had to fall back and join the other ret ; iinents that night , which lost us all the ground that wo had gained. We lay in camp all that day and rested. Qen. MoArthur paid during the charge that our boys made , "There goes the Nebraskans taok- ling and routing those folio wswhon I wan uncertain about attacking thorn with the whole force. " After our roHt wo started out and ad vanced in skirmish line for about three quarters of a milo , when the o'noiiiy opened on us at about 2,000 yards ; our boys would make a charge and then fall down aud res a minute , then jump up and go at it again. We had about six mon wounded in this charge. Wo rout ed the ouemy and advanced severa miles that day ; struck the rail road rested and'wont ' on about four1 miles further , when just before dark Kan sas , Pennsylvania and South Da kota and hoveral more struck the enemy at a railroad bridge ; there was a hard fight there , which latitoc until after dark. The next after noon wo again took the right whig of the advance ; wo had apont all the forenoon in Maneuvering ; wo had not advanced 100 yards whou wo were met by a terrible tire , but Ne braska again all by themselves ohargod and drove the enemy out. There wo lost three mon killed and nineteen wounded , Wo kept on going unt.l almost dark , whou wo lay down and took some rest , The next moruing just as wo made a start wo were opotnd upon by a heavy fire , when a few shots from our artillery And that of the Utah quieted them down a bit. Two of our men were wounded before we advanced ; wo started out aud fought for a distance of about two miles ; wo lost ono man killed and seven wounded. While I was dressing ono man ono of the boys who had stayed with him was shot through the shoulder. I think his being there saved mo from getting it my self. Wo were now north of Ma olos. which had been taken by some of the troops on the loft. > Wo foil back about a half milo and did not advance any lurlhor. The next lay Capt. Uorpolshcimor was aoci- dontly shot through the iloshy part of'tho ' loft forearm ; also another follow shot his own finger off. The boys ono and all were completely worn out by that time ; of about 000 who started , only 1182 were in camp on the morning of the first of April. Nebraska had more fight- ng and iv great deal more distance to go than any other regiment. Dlioro were only fourteen otliuers oft ; I wai the medical ofliuer with ho regiment. I was supposed to > e with the board of health , but Major Bourns kindly allowed mo to go with the regiment. April Olh , 1800 Well , I will wr to a few more iuos. Everything has boon quiet oday.

There were throe Spaniards oamo into our iuefl who claimed to have been leld prisoner ! * by the insurgents , but ono tried to escape and was cillod * as they are thought to bo spies.
