The attempt of General Lawton’s | punitive expedition to surround and capture the army of Pio del Pilar, south of Manila, has failed, the Ta- gallos escaping into the mountains. The net result of the movement has been the clearing of natives from a | strip of country which will probably | | have to be abandoned to them again, owing to the American inability to maintain garrisons, and the /oss of a few men on either side.
