Then a number of Ameri cans jumped Into the water, and, wading for about 40J yard, crept forward on the line, covering the landing of the teniain der, which Gniahed debarking about 5 o'clock. Three troops of the Fourth cav alry, unmounted', were sent ashore on a Jangerou. nianmy point, directly louth ol the city, under fire from the enemy's trenches.

General Lawton, desiring to make an w Klve 'B"n' n 0(lK,r'un',y to surrender, went on board by the Associated 1'refs lauch, steamed slowly to the dock, the whole fleet watching anxiously. When it was dis covered by the glasses that the trenches and stone buildings were swarming w ith white-clad soldiers, the two boats with drew, receiving volleys from the trenches thrown up on the marshy plain north of the city.

At sunrise today (Monday) the assault commenced. The American outline south of the city stretched two miles in land, and with its left sweeping the ehore, it moved north, while the Fourth cavalrymen, on the point, advanced to ward the city, pouring volleys on the trenches. Simultaneously the gunboats hovering along the shore shelled the woods ahead of the troops, and drove the Filipinos in land. The gatlimts cleared several trenches. The whole brigade was divided into squads of 12, and everything was carried on in frontier fashion, behind trees, crawling through bushes or running across the open. The trenches that were not cleared by the gunboats gave considerable resist ance when the line was Hearing the city, and the Laguna de Bay and Oeate bom barded for an luur in the hope of mak ing them too warm for occupancy, but did not succeed In clearing them entirely. General Lawton, with the Fourteenth infantry battalions, approached a narrow iron bridge across a creek on the south border of tbe town. Here a company of Filipinos was intrenched across the stream and behind a stone barricade at the entrance to the bridge. The Ameri cans rushed forward iu single file in the face of a galling fire, demolishing the barricade with their hands, and drove the enemy from the trenches, killing a dozen. 1'rUoiiera Captured, The Filipino soldiers in the town, bo- creted in various building and tiring from the windows, gave the invaders an ' inti-itint( hour.
