War in Two Places Constas attacked by Ladrones near Manila
A force of native constabulary fought a band of Ladrones near Colooena four miles north of Manila. Four constabulary officers were killed and one wounded. The Ladrones left three dead, and carried off their wounded as pursuit continues through the mountains. Moros renew attacks on Mindanao outposts near Lake Lanao with U.S. forces repelling them. President Roosevelt may be urged to authorize aggressive action. Labor leaders were arrested in Manila over a dispute related to a premium wage agreement on the Tacifo road project.
