OREGON TROOPS IN BATTLE.

Washington, May g, Th war de
paitment recoived the following di
patches tody:
Manila, May 0. Colonel Summer,
with six battalion, including tbe heo
ond Oregon, tbe Dakota regiment, the
Third infantry, and a piece of the Utah
light artillery, ol Lawton' diviiion,
proceeded north IM- morning to
Maasin. where thev croascl th" hut
and charged tho enemy in atrong en
trenchment, driring Ihem northward
and inflicting ooniiderahle lou. 11 if
casualties were two wounded.
Hoth Wheaton and Hale, of MacAr
thur'a diviiion, found the enemy in
(urce and Itrongly entrenched, anil
commanded by Commander-in-Chief
Luna, about four mi let south ul San
Pot Bando.
Hale, on tho right, dislodged the
enemy, ami Wheaton. on tbe left, lead
ing in patOOa, made a brilliant charge,
cattering bil (MOM, inflicting gieal
pnnlaBaaOBfc Several nfflccr ami aa
llHted n Were crm ,-ly wounded.
MacArthur proceedi lo Ban Eei

partial deatruction uf li e bridge acroaa
the river. It is not believed that the
ei en, v will make another dctci mined
stand until he effe, i liil ri treat to Aia-
yat. a ahuit diatalice from MB Isidio.
The situation is as follow: Luwtuu
hold llalinag, taken May 2 after a
lapid movement from Angat, where he
left IBppliM Mith a wagon train, pack
animal and rations. He scattered
the strongly entrenched enemy to tho
north and northwestward, capturing
large BUOOnl of food supplies, and has
In iletio hmeiit thrown out to the
north and eastward. Hit iicee(ul
movement i- attended with gieat diltl-
culty became of the chaiacter ol the
i oi nt i v and the rati and heat. He
now coven our railway cum mini ica-
lloM, and will he aupplicd (rum Ma-
lolo.
MacAithni's column was concen-
tiated mi l took up the advance on San
Per nando at 8:80 this morning. We
do not ap lelu nd a shaip resistance on
the part ol tin- enemy, who will pioha
hly leave the lailioad and retiie in a
north weal.-ly diiection and to the
ii or 1 1 1 of Lawton. The ileatiuction of
tho railroad near Calumpit necessitates
lependence on wagon transportation.
The enemy to the south and east of

SPAIN IN A NEW ROLE.

In OhlSHV
Hong Kong, May 0. Spain is col
lecting eivdeuce here with a view ol
claiming a cession ol laud in China as
indemnity from the Chinese govern
ment for permitting the steamer Abbey
to leave Canton last August, with
aim (or thu i'hilippines.
I In- little steamer Abbey wa seized
hv the armed diepulch-boat of Admiral
Dewey' squadron Septembei 23 lat.
She was of Ameiican register, though
(oimcrlv known as the J'usig. It was
repotted tu Admiral Dewey that she
wa cairying arms and supplies of war
to the Filipinos, ami he sent the Mo
Culloch to inteicept l er. When the
Ameiican cuttei finally found tho
Abbey in llatangiis l ay. on the south
cm coast of Luzon, the filibuster had
lauded her cargo of arms and muni
tions, ami the IflOUIgenta refused to
give them up. Thereupon the Abbey
was seized and taken by the McCul
loeh to Manila, in accordance with Ad
miral Dewey's desire tu maintain the
status quo in tho Philippine! pending
the conclusion of the work ol the peace
commission in I 'aria.

Washington, May 6 President Mo
Kinley has talke-l with some of his
congrelonal visitor about the ad
v ii ihty of calling an extra eion In
October t0 consider the UlipMHIOO M
the currency measuie, so that it may
not interfere with legislation which
will come Interior the government ol
the new colonics. There is a great
ileal (il work to come before the next
congress and two mouth extra session
would help a great deal.
Qreat satisfaction was expressed at
he war department ut tho manner in
which Colonel Summers is going ahead
wiili th Second iiiegon and winning
laurels lor himself and regiment. As
fnilher details aie received concerning
the action of the Oregon regiment,
and especially a NOOltod in Manila
napera, offloexi lone are loud in their
praise ol thu lors ami their officer.
While (leneral Olil doe not request
troops, he indn atea that mote could he
peed to advantage. It i plain that
with 0,1100 Filipinos near Manila and
town asking for garrisons tu protect
them, tioops aie needed. A call foi
.l.'i.ouo more Iroopi might have whole
some effect upon the insurgent.
Scnatoi Mcliridii called on 1'iesident
McKinley today and invited him to
visit Oregon on Ins Western trip, re
minding him of the invitation that wa
lent some time ago by the committee
appointed (or the purpose. The piesi
lleBt BUnred him that if he made the
Western trip contemplated, he would
gladly extend it to Oregon. He said,
however, that he had not dellnitely de
cided as to whether he wouhl make the
trip, as it would depend much on the
pressure ol public business.
Kdward Atkinson, whoso pamphlet
have U'en refused transportation to the
Philippines, claimed that tho senate
had endorsed his documents and made
them government pollinations. This
is true, but they weto oidered printed
is poblifl documents in a perfunctory
manner, tho same as thousand of
other documents are ordered printed by
the senate. Senator Jones, chairman
nf the Democratic national committee,
and Senator Caffety, of Louisiana,
both rabid anti-expansionists, asked
to have the Atkinson papers printed as
public documents, and without any
one Inquiring what they wete, the
leave was grauted. In the senate, If
leave to print such publications were
refused, the senator asking could read
them and make them official. For this
reason, hundreds ol crank documents
are printed without objection, in order
to save time and prevent thu defeat ol
important measures.
Charles Cintis, one of tho leading
lepicseutatives ol Kansas, says It ia
quite likely that (leneral Funafuti, who
has distinguished himself in the Phil
ippines, w ill he sent tu the senate after
tho next election. People of that
state are wildly enthusiastic to do
rometlling for the voting olllcer.
