Manila, Sept. 8.—The Iowa regi­
ment, the lust of the volunteer organ­
izations on duty in the island of Lu­
zon, has been drawn from Calula to
barracks at Calocan, preparatory to
departing for home. The number who
will sail is 806. Less than 800 of the
regiment were left on duty at the
front when the order came for their re­
lief, 406 being on the sick list. Tbis
regiment lias undergone hard outpost
duty for three months, during which
it has been very much ex|>oijed to rains.
Seventy-five members of the regiment
have re-enlisted. All the Iowans par­
ticipated in some of the fighting be­
tween Malolos and San Fernando, and
not one of them was killed in battle.
Thirty-nine were wounded and nine
died of disease.
The insurgents continue to make
demonstrations in the vicinity of Imus.
The American outposts were obliged
to fire volleys the past three nights.
Mail advices from Zamboanga re­
port that the town has been practically
deserted.
The facts concerning the recently re­
ported fighting between Dato Mundi
and the insurgents are that the insur­
gents attacked a village in Dato's do­
minion on a neighboring island, kill­
ing two of the villagers. Dato’s men
subsequently drove off the insurgents,
oi whom eeveral were killed.
The recent issue of Filipino paper
money amounts to $3,000,000. The
acceptance of this issue is made obli­
gatory, and the bills are made re­
deemable in three years.
The insurgents have issued a call
upon the property owners in the inter­
ior to supply gratis to the insurgents
army carte, horses and cattle.
