V . IKIUUU Ifi l I1lllll .MIICJ,
which haa been the Inaurgenta' atrong
hold throaithout the war. The valley
haa several timea hen Invaded, but
never held by the Americana. General
Gnronlmo vu anpoed to have there
the largest orieanlxed force north of
Manila, and General Otia wlahed to gar
riion Mariipiina.
The night waa one of the worat of the
aeaaon. A terrific rain had begun anJ
la atill continuing.
A ceo m pan led by tila ttafTand troop I,
Fourth cavalry, General Law ton act out
at 0 o'clock in advance of the main force 1
coimiNting ol the Eleventh cavalry and
one battalion each of the Twentieth and
Twenly arventh infantry, which atarted
from LaLoma at iniilniitht. With a
nifll escort ho led the way through an
aliuoul pathleHa country, a distance of
15 milea over hill and through an al
ui'Hit pathluHa country, a dixtnnce of 15
inili-n over hilla and through canebrake
and duep mud, the horses climbing the
rock i and sliding down the hill. Iiefore
daybreak the command bad reached the
bead of the valley.
San Maloo AlUcktd.
Han Muted waa attacked at 8 o'clock,
and a three bourt' figlit ensued. This
resulted in but few casualties on the
American side, apart from the death of
General Lawton but the attack waa diffi
cult because of the natural defenses of
town.
General Lawton was walking along the
Bring line, within SOO yards of a small
sharpshooters' trench, conspicuous In
the big white helmet lie always wore
and a light yellow rain coat, lie was al
so easily distinguished because of his
commanding stature. The sharpshooters
directed several close shots, which clip
ped the grass nesrby. Ilia staff officer
called General Law ton's attention to the
danger be was in, but he only laughed
with hia usual contempt for bullets.
Suddenly be exclaimed : I am shot,"
clinched his hands In a desperate effort
to stand erect, and fell into the arms of
a staff officer.
Orderlies rushed across the Held for
surgeons, who dashed up immediately,
but their efforts were useless. The body
was t.iken to a clump of bushes and laid
on a stretcher, the familiar white helmet
covering the face of the dead general.
Almost at this moment the cheers of the
American troops rushing into San Mateo
were mingled with the rifle volleys.
After the fight six stalwart cavalry
men forded the river to the town, Carry
ing the litter on their shoulders, the
staff preceding with the colors and a
cavalry escort following.
Kntlra Coiitmamt Orlef Stricken.
The troops filed bareheaded through
the building, where the body was laid
and many a tear fell from the eyes ol
men who had long followed the intrepid
Lawton. I lie entire command was
stricken with grief, as though each man
had suffered a personal loss.
Owing to the condition of the country,
which is Impassable as far as vehicles
are concerned, the remains could not be
brought to Manila today. Mrs. Lawton
and the children are living in a govern
ment residonce formerly occupied by a
Spanieh general.
San Mateo lies between a high moun
tain behind and a broad, shallow stream
in front, with wide sand bars which the
insurgent trenches' and the buildings
command. The Americans were com
pelled to ford the river under fire. It
was while they were lying in the rice
fields Kiid volleying across preparatory
to passing the stream that General Law
ton waa shot. All except the officers
were behind cover, A ttaflf officer was
wounded about the Bame time, and one
other officer and seven men were
wounded. After three hours' shooting
the Filipinos were dispersed into the
mountains. Colonel Locket took com
mand when General Lawton fell.
flcularly bncauwe the Pacific Northwest

committee dueling with the river and

It ieo to 50.
Wasiiixotoh, Dec. 18. The currency
bill, which wai debated all last week,
was passed today by the boose by a vote
of I'M to 150. It had the united support
of etery republican In the house, and of
11 democrats Clayton, Drlggs, Fitzger
ald, Levy, Ituppert, Scodder, Underbill
and Wilson of New York, McAleer of
Pennsylvania, Denny of Maryland, and
Thayer of Massachusetts. All the ether
democrats voted against it, except John
Walter Smith, governor-elect from Mary
land, Stalling! of Alabama, and General
Joseph Wheeler, of Alabama. SUllingi
has not been present in the bouse this
session on account of Illness, and one of
his colleagues announced that if present
be would have voted in the negative
General Wheeler is serving in the Philip
pines.
When the speaker announced the re
sult the republicans cheered lustily.
After the vote the speaker rather unex
pectedly announced the committee se
lections, and the reading of the liat was
followed with intense eagerness by the
members, whose opportunities for dis
tinction dend so largely upon their
committee assighnmenta.
The only incident in connection with
the leading of the list was Dailey'a in
terrogatory of the speaker as to whether
General Wheeler's name had been
placed upon the committee on ways and
means. Speaker Henderson responded
in the negttiye.
Announcement of the deatb of the late
Representative Bland, of Missouri,
which occurred last summer, caused an
early adjournment.
