At daylight tho enemy commenced worrying tactics on various parts of the American lines, apparently with the purpose of withdrawing attention from affairs insi lo tho citv. They attempted to rush through our extreme left, near Calooean, but were promptly checked by the hot, effective i musketry and the artillery fire. I t In the meantime small bodies of rebals, evidently some of those engaged last night in the incendi-1 ary, work at Tondo, spread outl ! between the city and the outposts, and every available man was sent to drive them awa\. There was desultory firing all the morning. The Monadnock joined in the engagement, hurling ten-inch j shells over American lines into I ondicsof the enemy, as indicated i b" the signal corps, from 8 to ' 10:30 'his morning. Wo lost one I man killed and ten wounded. At 11 o'clock there vvore sharp; engagements in the Chinese ceme, ! tory and at San Pedro Macati. Almost simultaneously tho artillery drove the enemv from both positions. Fro.n high towers in the city tir*?s could l?e seen in a dozen different points outside. It is reported that the natives bate threatened to hurn Liseolata and tho walled city tonight. Scores of rebels have been arrested in the Tondo district. One hand of sixty rebels with two car loads of arms and accoutrements were captured in one house. Busk ness is practically suspended temporarily. The flimsy native houses burned like tinder and thousands of families are homelens. The property loss last night was probably half million. Pay your subscripiton t Ledger!
