The insurgents attempted to destroy

succeeded in badly warping the iron

Manila, April 25, 10;3i) p. m. Gen
eral Mai-Arthur's division fought ita way
to the Filipino trenches betore Calumpit
today, advancing four miles, mostly
through woods and jungles, and crossing
the Bagbag river. This was accom
plished ut a cost to the Americans of six
killed and 23 wounded, tlie First South
Dakota regiment being the heaviest
loser.
After lording the river, tbe South Da
kotans pursued the insurgents to the out
skirts of the city ot Calumpit, but that
town was found to be so strongly pro
tected that MacArthur deemed it best to
withdraw the tired fighters and go into
camp for a night's rest before making
the final assault.
Ilebet Fir the Tow n,
. The largest buildings in Calumpit were
being (lied by the Filipinos while the
Americans were crossing the river, fully
a mile away, showing the enemy's inten
tion to abandon the village.
The Filipinos have adopted a settled
policy of retiring from one position, after
another, Inflicting the greatest possible
damage upon the advancing army. The
forces today were well drilled. Every

Colonel Fuston said afterward: "It
was not much to do; we knew they

crossing "
Hard Fighting of Hale' Troop.
General . Hale's troops, on the right,
had tlia hardest fighting. They followed
north bank of the river nearest th tnu-n
fn,m the left, with the First Nebraska ! 'omH;lled t abandon all towns when an
on the left anil First South Dakota and
Fifty-first Iowa beyond. The country
they traversed was mostly jungle, but
the Filipinos stood their ground, even
in the open spaces.
General Hale's right joined General
Wheaton'sleft soou after noon, a curve
in the river allowing the Americans to
pour an enfilading fire on the enemy's
trenches.
About this time the cheeis of the Kan
sas troops announced that the Americans
had crossed the river. General Hale's
men began to ford the Chico, a branch
of the Bagbag, stretching to the north,
the general himself plunging in to his
neck, and the regiments, all carrying
flags, floundering across the stream.
The guns of the Utah light artillery
were dragged over next, and formed an
extended line to advance upon the
trencheB before Calumpit, where the
Filipinos were pouring volleys into the
Americans.
The Loaae.
The armored car had one man killed
and two wounded. Tbe Kausos regi
uient had three wounded during the
charge, and the Utah light artillery one
dead and two wounded. Most of the
other casualties befell the South Dakota
regiment.
It is difficult to estimate the insurgent
loss, but they are no fewer than 70 killed,
meny of them by the artillery. Among
the dead was a Spanish captain.
During the day the Americana cap
tured 35 prisonersr.

annihilated Aguinaldo at Calumpit.
The insurgents made a brief stand
against C000 Americans, and tben fled to
the hills. The Americana lost eight
killed.
The capture of Calumpit gives the
Americans strategic contTol of the north
half of Luzon, and is the final blow to
the hopes of the rebel leaders and the
insurgent republic.
General Lawton today lost communi

now has to cover eight miles by courier.
