MANILA, Juno 14.-(JiMitnil Lawton
inexjH-rlrilly stirred up one of the liv?
liest etiimKenieuts of the war south of
Las I'iniiH yesterday niorniiiK. upon
which oi'chkIciii American tieM trims were
dkhkoiI 111 the first artillery duel ntfnint
Filipino liattery coiuruleil in tin- jun
gle. Companies F mil I of tin1 Twenty-first
infantry were nearly surrounded by a
largo boily of insiirircnts, but 1 he Ameri
cans rut their way out wit!i heavy loss.
The I'niH'd St:ites turret chip Monad
nook ami the ginilauita Helena mid Zafiro
trained their bntteries on Itiieoor and the
rebel trendies near Las l'iuas nil the
morning.
Baeoor was oneo on tiro, but the na
tive stopped the spread of the flumes.
Diirinj.' the nUht un insurgent eniinen
-was fired three tiir.es at the Americana
on the outskirts nt Las Pinns.
General Lawton in the morning took a
battalion of the Kuirteenth regiment and
two companies of the Twenty-first regi
ment to locate the rebel battery and then
two puns of the Sixth artillery and four
mountain kuiis were planted against it
at MM! yards distance.
The rebels had a large (run. from which
they were firing homemade canister load
ed with nails.
They also had two smaller guns. Their
shooting was most accurate.
The first lot of canister burst directly
id front of Scott's guns, and another
shattered the legs of a private in tho
Fourteenth infantry. Several shots struck
tfce edge of the town.
The country traversed was as bad as 't
la possible to imagine, being mainly la
goons, mud and water fringed with bum-boon.
As soon as the fighting opened the
Americans were attacked by hidden rifle
men on all sides, even the ainigos, or
"friendly natives," in the houses of the
town, shooting nt them.
Two companies of the Twenty-first reg
iment, skirmishing along the beach, with
amigo guides, found apparently a hand
ful of rebels, who retreated.
The men of the Twenty-first followel,
and suddenly the rebels opened a terrific
fire- on the troops from the sides and
rear.
The soldiers withdrew to the water's
edge, finding what shelter they could,
and were picked off rapidly. After their
ammunition was nearly exhausted the
two compnnies retreated, but General
Lawton dashed down and rallied the
men.
A little group made a desperate stand.
General Lawton, Major Starr anil Lieu
tenants Donovan 'and Connelly taking
rifles from the wounded men and firing
at the enemy, the general officers bring
ing down some of the rebel sharpshoot
ers from a tree.
Finally their cartridges were all gone,
and they were forced to break through
the enemy's flank, carrying the wounded
t the main body of the troops.
Lieutenant Donovan, whose leg was
broken, floundered for a mile through a
bog, leading his men in the face of a
greatly superior force.
General Lawton ceased fighting until
ra-enforcemeuta could be brought up.
Two battalions of the Fourteenth regi
ment and one battalion of the Ninth reg
iment were hurried to the front, and in
the afternoon the battle was resumed.
General Lawton called out the whole
force of 3,000 men, and at 5 o'clock he
was only able to push the insurgents
hack 500 yards to the Zapote river, where
they are intrenched.
The insurgents resisted desperately
and aggressively. They attempted to
turn the left flank of the American
troops.
The American loss is conservatively es
timated at HO.
Information, believed to be reliable,
has reached here of the assassination of
General Luna aiid his aid de camp, Lieu
truant Pasco Itamon, June 8 by Agui
naldo's guard at the headquarters of

RIOT IN BUFFALO.
rhe Strikers Open t-'lre on n Onnsf of
Workmen.
l'.CFFALO, June 11. A pang of be
tween 'M and 40 stevedores and freight
lintnll'M'N last night about 7:110 o'clock
rlimbed tiboard the whalclmck Samuel
Mather, which was lying nt the Minne
sota Iron Ore docks, and opened fire on a
gang of about ."ill iron ore handlers who
were working yi the hold of the vessel,
lletwecn and 1IIM shots were tired.
John Malyek, HO years old, was shot in
the back nnd Is not expected to recover;
Joseph Marck was shot In the shoulder,
anil Mike Smith received n bullet in tho
right i houlder. Tho Injuries of the two
latter men are not serious. Sixteen of
the attacking party were arrested. Tho
trouble was caused by the ore handlers
referring to the freight handlers as
scabs. The docks in the vicinity of
the scene of the shooting are covered
with policemen, and no further trouble
is anticipated.
The strike on the docks has extended
to the coal heavers at the Delaware and
Lackawanna shoots. One hundred of
these men have quit work. They appar
ently have no grievance of their own,
and it is thought they went out In sym
pathy with the striking freight handlers.
The housemen employed by the Anchor
line also quit work Inst night. The feel
lug among the men employed along the
docks is said to be uglier than at any
time during the summer, and the present
strike is n I most certain to extend.

tnrea Are ns ( linn" llefoie the l-'n-rlons
storm The Kenrch For
the Head nnd MIsslnK.
NEW 1MCIIMOXD, Wis., Juno 14.
Indescribably sad lire the scones of deso
lation wrought by Monday night's torna
do, that has practically swept out of ex
istence the prosperous little city of New
Richmond. Out of fiOO houses and store
buildings comprising the town fully IK I
were wrecked by the storm or destroyed
by tiro. Almost every family bus one nt
more members among the dead, injured
or missing, and little groups are seen ev
erywhere searching, by the light of lan
terns or torches, for loved ones who may
be buried in the piles of debris on every
hand. With frantic energy the soared
has been conducted all duy, and up to 1)
o'clock last night !4 bodies had ben
found, although the number of dead cer
tainly will reach 1 1 H or more. These
have, for the most part, been taken lo
the Catholic and Congregational church
es, which, although in the very edge of
the storm's path, miraculously escaped
its fury.
In these temporary morgues the sight'
are such us to touch the hardest heart
us the grief stricken living lecognize the
bodies, horribly mangled and often dis
membered, of missing dear ones.
The wounded find temporary asylums
in the uninjured dwellings cm either side
of the path of devastation, where doc
tors nnd nurses from nearby cities and
towns are doing heroic work without
sleep or rest. The rumher injured can
not be told, but will probably reach 400.
As many as possible of the injured whose
chances for recovery are considered good
are being sent to the hospitals at St.
1'nul and Minneapolis, where they will
have better care.
It is the average resident of New Rich
mond who estimates the loss of life most
seriously. They claim that hundreds are
missing who were buried in the ruins nnd
there incinerated. One such is C. A.
Nelson, who owned the Columbian res
taurant, located on Main street. His es
timate of loss is 400 dead. Ho says that
when the rainstorm which preceded the
cyclone broke not less than 2(1 persons
rushed into his place for shelter, lie is
positive that not more than four besides
himself escaped. The building was a
substantial frame structure.
The business portion of the city cover
ed a space of four squares each way and
was built solidly of brick am; stone. 1 hN
ntire space was swept clear, foundation
walls and in some ( laces masses of de
bris alone marking where the business
pluces formerly stood. Trees that had
lined the streets of the neighboring resi
dence district wor broken clear off or
twisted and uprooted. The tornado came
up the river from Hudson where the
damage was comparatively slight. Fol
lowing the general course of the river
and the branch of the Omaha road, the
storm gained in intensity as it progress
ed and wns at its worst when it struck
the business center of New Uichnioud.
The Texas Floods.
AUSTIN, June 10. The unprecedent
ed flood in the Colorado river nnd its trib
utaries still continues, nnd reports of loss
of life and great destruction of crops and
property have reached here from trust
worthy sources. The earlier reports of
the destructiveness of the high water
have been verified. It is estimated that
the loss of crops nlono will aggregate
over $1,000,000, Tho rich San Snbn val
ley is devastated. The path of the flood
covers a distance of 1,000 miles of the
richest bottom lands in Texas.

WASHINGTON, June 9. The war
department has prepared a statement
showing the number of enlistments in
the regular army since the war began
At that time the army consisted of 25,-
000 men. The enlistments since that
time have been about 75,MK) men. This
would make an army of 100,000, but
there were a large number of enlist
ments made for service in-the war with
Spain alone, and these men have wince
been discharged. j
NEBRASKA TOWN DESTROYED.
Not a Honse Left Standing In Her
man Many Killed by Tornado.
OMAHA, June 14. The tornado that
struck the village of Herman last even
tug wrought fearful destruction. A con
ductor on the evening train from Sioux
City passed through the place not long
after the storm, and he says not a build
ing is left standing in town. He counted
12 dead bodies lying in the streets. The
fatalities will undoubtedly run up to
100, if not higher. A special train has
left Blair, the county sent, ten miles dis
tnnt, for the scene of the disaster, car
rying "surgeons and all needed supplies,
Wires are all down north of Herman
and it is not known how much farther
north the storm went, but reports are
coming in to the effect that a large por
tion of the country north of Hermiiii is
laid waste. The entire eastern portion
of Nebraska is being swept by a ter
rific rain, wind and electric storm. The
streets of Omaha are flooded, and the
play of the lightning is fearful.
FJTZSIMMONS KNOCKtU OUT.
'aiues Jeffries Wins the Flitht nt
Cone)- Island.
CONEY ISLAND. N. Y.. June 10.-
J aines J. Jeffries, another sturdy young ;
giant, has come out of the west to whip ,
champion pugilists. At the arena of tho I
Conoy Island Athletic club last night he
defeated Robert Fit.siinmons, world's
champion in two classes middleweight
nnd heavyweight in 11 rounds of whirl
wind lighting, lie came to t lie ring a
ank outsider and left it the ncknowleilg
d master of the man he defeated. He
wns never nt any time in serious danger
and nfter the size up in the earlier
rounds of the contest took the lend and
was never headed. He had the Austra
lian whipped from the ninth round and
Would have ended it in the tenth but for
the lack of time.
The men fought before n crowd of
f),(HH) persons nnd stood up in a grent
beam of blinding white light. It was
like a tlioii'iand calciums, and it showed
their great white bodies In strange re
lief. When the blood came, it was of
an iutenser red than usual. There was
not a suggestion of interference from the
police. Chief Devery occupied a seat by
the ringside, but never entered the ring.
When it was all over, lie sent Captain
Kenny In to clean the ring of the princi
pals. The contest was pulled off without
, wrangle and was devoid of the brutal
Icmcnts that Chief Devery alleged he
feared. Never was a crowd handled with
greater order and less friction. It was
all perfectly orderly.
THE CLEVELAND STRIKE.
The Street Car Company Operates
Cam With Outside Help.
CLEVELAND, June 14. The ollicials
of the Big Consolidated Kailroad com
pany were evidently surprised yesterday
by the success which attended the ef
fort to move their cars. While every
car Monday was surrounded by a
howling niol), there was no ilisturbsnce
of any kind during yesterday. While
this was due in part to the vigilance of
the police, who prevented the assembling,
of crowds, it was mainly attributable to
the fact that the strikers made no effort
to Induce nonunion men to quit. In fact,
the strikers remained away from the
curs, anil they were operated on one lino
at intervals of about .'10 minutes, carry
ing a few passengers during the latter
part of the day.
There is n feeling on the part of the
members of the state board of arbitra

of the union.

petizing, nourishing food drink to take
