Evans, of This City, a Member of Company D, Fourth Illinois Infan try, Who Was In tho Midst of tho Firing Estimated That 10,000 Soldiers Are Sick on tho Islands. Treachery of the Filipinos Toward Americans. Ucnjamln J. Evans, a member of Company D, Fourth Illinois infantry, who left hero In March, 180S, for South America, and afterwards Joined the United States army, has written sev eral Interesting letters to his sister, Atrs. P. W. Tnguo, of West Scranton, describing tho life of the soldier In the Philippine islands. Air. Evans is a son of Aline Foreman Jnmes A. Evans, of the Diamond, and is well-known throughout the city, having been connected with the Young -Men's Christian association while here, ills latest letter, received a few days ago, Is descriptive of the hardships en dured by the Americans in Atanlla, and Is as follows: Imus, P. I., June IS, 1S90. Dear Sister: SInco writing your last wo have had a good taste of army life. Somo of our soldiers are nearly heart broken, and we uio ull very anxious to get back to tho states again. When 1 enme hero I expected wo would encounter somo hardships, but It has been tougher than 1 ever expected. Wo have Just returned from making ono ot tho hardest marches tho American army has made. I havo tho word of old soldiers to that effect and I bellcvo it. HEAT WAS INTENSE. Wo started out Juno 2 and returned Juno 8. There were three thousand sol diers In thu march but the heat was so Intense that they started to drop out tho first das. Some of the companies had half ot their number fall out on the way. I was very forturoto In making the trip, but wouldn't enro to make another like It. One march like that Is sufllclent In a man's llfo time. Wo started out to scout tho eastern mountain range where the insurgents supposed they had a reg ular Gibraltar, and had to climb up mountnlns so steep that we had to Just pull ourselves up by roots of troe.i and vines, and the enemy was on top Ilring at us, but we routed them out of their strongholds in tho mountains down to the vatlev below. There we were te lleved by other regiments to start after them and round them up. Tho fat mules that hauled our provis ions when we started were as thin as rails when we returned nnd a great num ber wero In such bad shape they had to bo shot. After returning to the lines all worn out from marching and loss of sleep, we expected to have a rest and recuperate before wo started out again; but next morning we had orders to start on nnother trip. I presume tho com manders thought lhat inasmuch as wo had them located they could capturo them, so we started on our march to as sist tho other regiments. After traveling all day In the hot sun nnd men wero dropping out right and lelt, overcomo by tho heat, we balled at a place by the name of Uacoor which we captured with very little fighting. After arriving here a heavy rain storm set in, so tho Fourth regiment took possession of a largo church nnd convent which there is no scarcity of on these Islands, They nre the first thing noticcahlo on entering a village. They nre built of stone and have no glass lights In the windows, only largo lion bars, nnd no sents. The natives sit on tho floor. FOR A FORTIFICATION7. They are mado with tho expectation of using them as n fortification, If nec essary; but they have learned by this tlmo that it is certain death to look for protection In them any more. , I wish you could see some of their churches where they sought refuge. After our ar tillery got through with them they looked llko a sieve. Now they play a different game by retiring Into the most ditllcult country for our artillery to go through. After a few more days' rest four com panies from the Fourth Infantry wero ordered out again to do somo scouting through tho enemy's country to find where they were located, so the whole brigade could make a charge on them the next day. Company D, which I belong to, was ono of the unfortunato com pany's that had to go. Tho result was we lost eight men nut of our company which Is decreasing very rapidly. There wero forty-nine men off duty from sick ness nnd tho other companies are In about the samo condition. It Is reported that there are 10,000 sick soldiers here. So to have men soldiering In this country tho companies ought to have doublo their force. In starting on this march wo had only half tho number of men our companies should have had. After marching about eight miles wo wero fired upon from both sides of the road. As soon as tho first volley came, every man of his own accord dropped flat In tho road. I never before witnessed a body of men drop so quickly without being ordered. Tho enemy wero concealed In two creeks about 200 rnrds on both sides of tho road on which wo wero marching. Tho creeks run In tho samo direction as tho road. FOOLED THE AMERICANS. They generally have pickets around their enmping places tho same us our army, but this time they fooled us (they must have been Informed of a body of soldiers coming In their direction), by leaving us march right into their camp before they lite on us. Wo wero com pletely surrounded and had no way of es cape, only to light It out. Wo formed a skirmish lino across tho road, each man about five feet upart, nnd had to shoot as fast as possible. Wo wero fighting in this locality six hours. Doth sides of the road was swampy, marshy land, and wero nearly up to our necks In mud and water, so you can Just Imagine whut a nice looking lot of soldiers wo wero when we got through. My rlflo got so hot Irom firing so long thnt my hands were one com pleto blister. If tt hadn't been for ono of our men riding back for reinforcements, na soon as tho llrst shot was tired, I bellcvo wo would havo all been massacred, for our ammunition was about run out when re inforcements came to our assistance. Wo couldn't retreat on account of having so many wounded to tako care of. Tho enemy even chopped off tho ears and cut out tho tongues of some of our wounded. Wo held our post until tho next morn In when we made a charge on their vil lage. Thero was very little trouble In capturing tho place. After destroying their powder mill wo started to Imus. where wo havo been for tho past few days. This last battle was the worst po sition we have been in. It was such a small body holding so largo u number (ten thou'mnd) from advancing on them and only ' lost two killed and six wounded. DEAIX INSUItaENTS. We counted nltioty-two deud Insurgents, but how nmny, moro uhero wns we could not tell, lhat was uncared for, Atyself and a companion enptured two rifles and ono prisoner. There wero quite a number of prisoners captured, but its no lino capturing thfem, for they aro left loose nnd go right back fighting again, some of them havo been taken prisoners two and three times.

They come out and light, then hide their guns and como back to their homes and pre tend to bo our friends. They will bo along tho roads getting a pail of water and will hand our men a drink, then when wo pass will get their guns nnd tiro on us, so wo nre thoroughly disgusted with them. Now when they come with water for us to drink, sometimes our soldiers forget themselves and haul off with their lists and strlko them In tho face. Spain never sent her collectors hero, I nm told, so tho people had no taxes to pay, nnd had everything their own way. So I suppese they think they will havo to pay the United States a heavy tax If wo conquer them and are lighting all tho harder on that account. I only wish this thing was over so wo could get In decent quarters and quit killing. There Is no pleasure In it for us. I feel torry for the old people that aro left homeless nnd the little children that aro compelled to carry loads as largo as themselves along the roud. It Is no exception here to. other countries.

Joyce met Peter AtcCann, Johnny Hopo and Cokely, who were drinking at the Garden hotel at Twenty-seventh street and Third avenue. He Invited the, gang to have a drink with him, which invitation was readily accepted. Later a tramp entered and asked for some whiskey. Cokely told him that If he would sing and dance, his appetite for the stuff would bo appeased. The tramp performed his part of the con tract, but Cokely refused to keep bis promise, and beat tho trump In un un merciful manner. Joyce took offense at this and quar relled with his now acquaintances, A fight ensued, and Joyce, combatting with the three men, drew a knife unci plunged it into Cokely's left breast. Ho promptly surrendered himself to tho police, and is being held to await the result of Cokely's Injuries. He wus re ported to be dying yesterday.
