American forces advance near Manila and camp updates
Reports detail American military activity around Camp Dewey with General Greene’s brigade reinforced from Merritt’s transport. The Manila eastward advance ends a mile offshore but stops short of the Passig river, with Greene’s headquarters 4,000 yards from the Spanish line and 800 to 1,000 yards from insurgent positions. Congress faces an extra session to secure garrison troops, aiming to deploy about 60,000 in Cuba, 20,000 in the Philippines, and 20,000 in Puerto Rico, as war ends and new laws are needed.
