MANILA , April 2S. 11:45 : n. m. Yes
terday furnished added proof that
the United States troops have a fear of
bushwhacking that Is above their fear of
battles. The Washington regiment , which
Is holding Tagulg with three companies of
the Twelfth regulars , engaged n largo forcj
of Insurgent * In n fight lu the .Jungle. The
Americans lost two killed and ten wounded.
The Plllplnos have been massing at the
mouth of the Paslg river , and it Is estimated
that there are 2,000 of them now there. They
have mounted two guns one n three-Inch
Kruppanil have thrown a number of shells
Into the American lines. The gunboat
Naptdcin , which Is guarding the entrance
to the river , shelled .a launch which was car--
rylng supplies.
Yesterday n large force of rebels approached
preached the town , seemingly bent on luring
the Americans from Calutnplt. Three com
panies of the Washington irooas sallied
forth and attacked the natives and found
that they had their hands full. Two other
companies of the Washlngtons nnd three of
the Twelfth regulars reinforced them and
drove back the eneir.y , who removed their
den "tad wounded as they retired , as usual.
8:20 : a. m. At Calumplt for the first time
i large body of Filipinos attempted to face
the Americans In open ground. The Plll
plnos In the trenches were dispersed after
making a ridiculously feeble reslatanee , but
General Luna's brigade came upon the field
from Macaboles on .the , doublequlck and two ,
regiments preserving a perfect formation/
The American. from the south bank , of the
river , which Is higher than the north bank ,
could see General Luna mounted on a black
horse , galloping frantically along the lines
and apparently exhorting his lolluwnrs to
make n stand. Ho finally succeeded In get
ting them spread In nn extended Mm of
battle , whloh would have done credit to a
civilized army. But when the American
bullets showered thickly among them , stir
ring clouds of dust from the sandy soil , the
Filipinos again showed that no amount of
drilling could fortify them sufficiently to
mnko them face the American rides and
their train puffed up the track with Its loan
of dead and wounded In plain sight of the
Americans , who wore entering the town so
closely that the rebels barely slipped out or
their victors' hands. The Montana regiment
made n rush to capture the train , running
up the track , yelling shrilly , nnd even drop
ping their guns In the pursuit , but the en
gine backed off hastily , leaving the bodies
of six warriors to their enemy.
Three Plllpinos who came to meet the
tonrUror ! bearing a white flag de
clared heartily that they ivore sick of
fighting , adding that food was very short
In their camps. They ate the army
rations given to them with an
eagerness that testified to the truth of the
latter statement. One who had been
severely wounded dragged himself niter hlrf
comrades , showing remarkable nervo.
Fifty Americans wcro overcoms by thj
he.it nnd Colonel Punston dropped utterly
exhausted after the battle. The men of the
Kansas regiment cheered him cr.-ully when
hoont among them. Last night ihu flames
of burning villages nnd scattered huts gavu
the horizon n glow us of sunset nnd the
crackling of thu bamboos as they cnught
flro sounded llko musketry In battle.
If the American troops wore not fighting
the heat as well as the rebels they might
FEHALE MAIL.
That sounds more contradictory than
it Is , when attention is called to its beinj'
n description of the largest mail received
by nny man in the United States excln-
stvely'from women. This "female mail"
is received by Dr. R. V , Pierce , the cele
brated specialist in women's diseases ,
chief consulting physician to the Inva
lids' Hotel nnd Surgiqvt Institute , Buf
falo , N. Y.
It is only fair to say that it is not the
man tliut women write to , but the doctor.
One of the remarkable features of this
correspondence is that years nfter n cure
has been effected , grateful women con
tinue to write to Dr. Pierce , being thank
ful for health nnd for the kind and
fatherly advice , which was blended with
the physician's counsel , nnd which was
so helpful in preserving the health when
regained.
The offer of a free consultation by let
ter is extended by Dr. Pierce to every
rick and ailing woman. Every letter
received is read in private , answered in
private nnd its contents treated as a sa
cred confidence. To exclude any third
party from the correspondence , all
answers are mailed in n plain envejone ,
bearing upon it no printing or advertising
whatever. Address Dr. K. V. I'ierce ,

them to scatter Into the mountains ; but
the soldiers were so wilted that they must
rest , while the Insurgents have time to re
organize , dig new trenches and fortify San
Pornando , where It Is expected they will
attempt another battle. The matter of the
transportation of supplies also hampers Gen
eral MacArthur's movements , stnco with the

It is dinicult to supply so large an army
In such a rough country.

liortfil to IIeuiliiinrler .
MANILA , April 2S , 6:50 : p. in. The Filipino
pine olllcers walked down thu railroad track
to the Kansas regiment's outpost at 0
o'clock this morning. The Kansas captain
In command thcro escorted them to General
Wheaton's headquarters , where they were
provided -with horses and sent to the head
quarters of General MncArthur. The lat
ter Invited the Filipinos to wit down at
lunch with him , nnd conversed with them
some time. Ho refused , however , to speak
authoritatively pn the subject of their er
rand , referring nil Inquiries to General
Otis.
Otis.Tho
The Filipinos were then escorted by Gen
eral Maloney of General MncArthur's staff to
Manila , reaching this place at 3 o'clock p.
m. General Otis' aide , Lieutenant Sladen ,
was awaiting their arrival at the dpp t. wl h
a carriage , in which they wore driven to
the palace entrance. The Filipino officers
attracted much attention. They were
dressed In uniforms of checked blue and
white cloth nnd wore straw hats.
They carried no side arms. They were
escorted directly to the bfllce of
General Otis. .Jacob G. Schunnan , president
of tho. Philippine commission , .and Hon.
Charles Denby , a member of th'e-'commls-
slon , soon Joined the party there. , The news
of the arrival of the Filipino officers under
a ( lag of truce spread through the city rap
idly and many officers gravitated to the
corridors of the palace , while a crowd of
natives gathered In the square opposite the
palace.
At 5 o'clock the two Filipino officers , es
corted by Lieutenant Sladen and Major
Moloney , left the palace. They did not
look nt all elated as a result of their talk
with General Otis nnd the members of the
Philippine commission.
7:50 : p. M. Agulnaldo Is evidently selectIng -
Ing the army as a cloak for his congress ,
hoping by subterfuge to overcome General
Otis' consistent policy of Ignoring the
Pllininn tfnvprnmnnt Th TPMlnlnn * . . * _
ment Is that It Is Impossible to arrange an
armistice without the sanction of the con
gress. General Otis punctured this as
sumption by remarking that If Agulnaldo
could make war without the congress ho
could stop It without reference to that body.
Ono of the conferees afterward remarked
that they are shrewder than white men In
diplomacy , as the Malays are credited with
being.
While the insurgents are undoubtedly
tired of wur , the leaders are torn with
dissensions. There Is n suspicion that It
was hoped by moans of n conference < o as
certain what they could expect. If they
saw that anything Is to be gained by con
tinuing the war , an armistice .would afford
them nn opportunity for recuperating their
demoralized forces.
It Is an interesting commentary upon
Agulnnldo's scheme that only sixty of the
300 members of the Filipino congress have
taken the oath of allegiance which their
constitution requires.
A Filipino proclamation replying to thn
proclamation of the American commission
ers has appeared. It Is signed by Mndlnl
fur the president nnd is dated nt Cnnlasdro ,
April 15. It la In the usual grandiose style
nnd declares that President McKlnloy Is
sued the proclamation In order to force the
American congress to ratify the cession of
the Islands under the treaty of Paris.
"This contract of cession was made with
the Spaniards after Spanish domination had
boon ended by the valor of our troops , "
the proclamation asserts. The proclamation
complains that the Filipinos wcro not rep
resented ut ParlH during the negotiation of
the treaty and that they are without as-
Buranccs of the fulfillment of American
promises. It dilates upon the alleged
Anglo-Saxon hatred of blacks and asserts
n dcalre to enslave them. Deploring a lack
of foreign nld In prosecuting the war , the
proclamation concludes : "Wo stand alone ,
but wu will fight to the death. Coming
generations will pray over our graves ,
shedding tears of gratitude for their free
dom. "

WASHINGTON , April 28. General Greely
slates that the United States transport
Hooker Will 'be ' placet ! under the order's of
Major Jcoeph 'E. Maxfleld on Saturday. It
will sail on Monday , carrying with It Major
Maxfleld , Lieutenant Clarke and twenty-five
men of the regular signal corps to replace
signal corps volunteers In the Philippines.
The ship carries 212 miles of deep sea
cable and nil the gear necessary for laying ,
recovering and repairing submarine cables.
The cable Is entirely of American manufac
ture. It will be used to connect such Island's
nnd such points as Major General Otis may
deem necessary for military administration.
It Is expected that this system will supple
ment the cable lines of the Eastern Ex
tension Telegraph company to euch nn ex
tent that General Otis will be nblo to com
municate speedily with nil the Important
Islands of the Philippine archipelago. The
progress of the expedition will bo watched
with Interest , It being the first effort of
American manufacturers nnd American offi
cers to lay n deep sea cnblo of such length In
distant waters.
In addition to the cable the Hooker car
ries materials and Instrument for 1,000
miles of land Hiiro , 100 telegraph offices nnd
100 telephone stations. The supplies , with
those already In the Philippines , nro suffi
cient for the construction of 2,000 miles of

HAVANA , April 2S. The attitude of Gen
eral Maximo Gomez toward the "Interven

causes n lively controversy among poli
ticians here nnd oven among his friends
La Discussion and El Roconcentrndo treat
him ns nn ally of the United States and re
fer to him ns a "traitor to the cause of
Cuban Independence. " La Lucha and La
Pntrln view him ns n consistent leader of the
Cuban people. Prom time to time copies
of his private correspondence , embodying
allusions to public business , are supplied to
the press nnd afford material for specula
tion nnd argument regarding his real posi
tion and purpose. For Instance , one of the
papers today publlslics extracts from a let
ter Gomez recently wrote to Redolfo Men-
endez of Merlda , Yucatan , In the course of
which he said : ' 'My energy , my strength
nnd all my prestige I nm giving hero In
my devotion to the cause of Independence
for this heroic country , nnd I devote myself
especially to the labor In concert with the
provisional government which nttcnds nnd
serves the country. "
A member of his household has given the
following explanation of the position of
Gomez : "Of course General Gomez con
tinues to favor , as ho always has favored ,
ultimate Independence ; but he considers a
period of American control ns a logical
preparation for that Independence. There
fore ho wishes to co-opernto with the
Americans without reservation In disband
ing the troops and in quieting nnd recon
structing the country. Ho cannot tell how
long this period should be , but ho would
probably have Issued n statement , declaring
his formal support of the American pro
visional control , If the recent severe at
tacks upon his views had not been made. "
The report that General Gomez Is drawIng -
Ing up a proposal for the organization of
Cuban militia Is not verified by him.

The association has purchased 110 acres of
land alongside the Hudson River railroad at
Coxsackle ns a burying ground for pet nni-
, inals nnd birds. The Idea was suggested by
W. D. Lano"of Troy , president of the now

pare the bodies for burial , and the associa
tion will care for nnd protect the graves.
It Is Intended to make the cemetery na
tional In scope , thus bringing to Its support
all who take a sympathetic Interest In do-
mettle animals. The cemetery site com
mands nn excellent view of the Hudson river
and Cttteklll mountains. It will be sodded ,
on Iron fence will be erected , flower beda and
other improvements will add to Its natural
