The Indiana arrived at Manila on December 1, and the Newport on December 6, 1898. The third battalion landed on December S, and the first and second battalions on the 11th. The first battalion was stationed at "La Rosa Tobacco Warehouse;" the second battalion, with regimental headquarters, at the "Administracion de Hacienda;" and the third bat- talion at "Aldecoa & Co.'s godown." The first battalion was moved, on January 8, 1899, to the "Cuartel de Infanteria," the tobacco ware- house being located in the smallpox-infected distriet, but moved back again on the tenth, and remained there until January 25, when it was moved to "No. 73 Lunetta." This battalion lost a number of men from smallpox.
On February 4, at about ten o'clock P. M., the outpost of the regiment was attacked, and the second and third battalions, under regimental com- mander, moved rapidly to its support. These outposts were on the ex- treme left of the American lines, and were being firmly held by Captain A. G. Clarke and Lieutenant Krause with about sixty men from various companies. A sharp fire was kept up all night, and, intermittingly, until

noon of the 5th, when an advance of the entire brigade line was ordered and executed, the first battalion having in the meantime joined the command. The enemy were quickly driven baek beyond two lines of entrenchments to their blockhouse, about two miles north of Manila. Here our lines fell back about 1,000 yards, but advanced, without opposi- tion, and reoccupied the advanced point the following morning (Febru- ary 6). On the 7th, Colonel Funston asked and received permission to attack the insurgent forees in his front. He immediately moved against them with four companies (B, C, E, and I), driving them from their posi- tion, with heavy loss after a sharp fight lasting about forty-five minutes.
February 10, at 3:30 P. M., orders were received to assault and take the town of Caloocan in conjunction with the First Montana Infantry and the Third U. S. Artillery (aeting as infantry). The left was pro- teeted by two companies of the First Idaho Infantry, and the line re- enforced by two guns each from the Sixth U. S. and Utah Light Artillery. After a half hour's shelling of the town by the fleet the advanee began gradually swinging to the right. The enemy was rapidly driven through and beyond the town, where our line was halted and formed for the night. On the day following (February 11), position was taken about one-half mile beyond Calooean church, and entrenched, where the regiment lay in the face of an almost continuous fire from the enemy until the evening of March 24, when it was moved to LaLoma church, about a mile to the sontheast.
March 25, at 6:30 A. M., the advanee began-`the Twentieth Kansas in the center of the brigade line-the entire division gradually swinging to the left until stopped by the Tuliajan River, where the enemy was strongly entrenched on the north bank. A crossing under the enemy's fire was finally accomplished by each company of the second and third battalions in its own front, company E, under command of Captain William J. Watson, meeting with especially strong resistance. The insur- gents were driven from their position with heavy loss. The entire regi- ment had crossed to the north bank at about nine o'clock A. M. At seven o'clock A. M. the following day (26th) the command moved forward with little resistance from the enemy. On the 27th, shortly after noon, com- panies II and I were ealled into action on the left of the road, engaging the enemy aeross the Marilao River. Being unable to dislodge the enemy, the regimental commander, with one platoon of Company C, crossed the river on a raft and attacked the enemy in the rear, capturing twenty- eight prisoners and rifles, in addition to a large number of killed and wounded. This platoon returned and the command moved down and crossed at the town of Marilao, where an attack by the insurgents was met and the enemy driven beyond the Santo Maria, Bigaa and Gniguinto rivers. Just north of the Guiguinto River the advance was checked by a spirited fire from the enemy. A line was formed, and, after a sharp action lasting twenty minutes, the fire of the insurgents was checked.
On March 30, at about 2:30 P. M. the advanee was continued, with the first battalion in support, to the main road leading into Malolos, where, resistance being met with, the line was halted for the night. On
913

the 31st the regiment, on the right of the brigade, advanced on the city of Malolos. Colonel Funston, with a small detachment of Company E, pushed forward in front of the command, and was the first to enter the public square of the city, meeting but slight resistance. A line was estab- lished abont one mile north of Malolos, where the command rested.
April 25, aetive operations were again renewed, and the Twentieth Kansas, in conjunction with the First Montana, moved against the in- surgent entrenehments north of the Bagbag River. After a spirited shell- ing of the enemy's works by the armored train from a position one-half mile away, Company K, under command of Captain Boltwood, advanced rapidly to the river and drove the enemy from their position. On the 26th the advance was renewed until opposite the town of Calumpit. An incessant firing was maintained for the remainder of the day and a part of the 27th. It being too costly to force a passage of the river at the rail- road, the regimental commander, with forty-five men from various com- panies, crossed the river one-fourth of a mile below the railroad bridge and attacked the enemy in the rear, driving them from their position. The remainder of the Twentieth Kansas, with the Montana regiment, crossed at the railroad bridge, and the insurgents were rapidly driven northward through the town of Apalit, where the regiment halted until May 4.
On the morning of May 4 the Twentieth Kansas and First Montana marched north along the railroad. At about nine o'clock A. M. the third battalion, leading the advance, encountered the enemy entrenehed on the north bank of the Santo Tomas River, and promptly engaged them. Company H, supporting a battery of one Hotchkiss and one Gatling gun, deployed on the right of the railroad, and later Company C deployed to the right of H. Company H running out of ammunition, was relieved by Company I. Company D advanced along the line of the railroad, firing on the enemy to the left. After a sharp engagement of an hour's dura- tion, the insurgents retreated to their entrenchments north of Santo Tomas station and made a determined stand. Companies C, D and I crossed npon the broken railroad bridge, and, reenforeed by companies G and E, of the second battalion, charged the enemy and drove them from the field. The regiment rested at Santo Tomas.
On May 6 the command occupied San Fernando. On the evening of May & the outposts were attacked by the enemy in force, who were driven off after an hour's engagement, in which companies B, C, D, H. I and M took part. On May 24, at 8:30 A. M., the regiment moved out under the command of Major Whitman to attack the enemy north of San Fernando, the third battalion being left in reserve. The first and second battalions made a detour to the right under cover of the woods, and arrived within 150 yards of the enemy before being discovered. The first battalion, eon- sisting of companies A, B, and L, deployed, and attacked the enemy in front. The second battalion, companies E. G. K, and M, deployed at nearly right angles with the trenches and pushed the enemy in a southerly direction along the trenches, completely routing and driving them from

the field in disorder. The first battalion followed the enemy through and beyond Bacolor.
May 25, at six o'clock A. M., General Funston, with a reconnoitering party consisting of companies D, H. and one platoon of I, and two com- panies of the First Montana, marched through Bacolor to Santa Rosa, engaging the enemy in a skirmish of about an hour's duration. Having accomplished the object of the movement, he returned to San Fernando at four P. M. At this hour, our outposts being threatened on the north. companies A, B, C, D, E, F, G, I, and K, sent out to reinforce, engaged the enemy and drove them north beyond Calulit our forces retiring to that point. On the morning of May 26 the outposts being attacked, com- panies B and F reenforced company L and drove off the enemy. Until the 16th of June the outposts were quiet, although rumors of an attack on San Fernando caused extra vigilance to be observed.
On the morning of June 16 a large body of insurgents attacked the Kansas and Montana lines, the assault extending around the city. Com- panies D and G were on duty at the outposts, and were promptly reen- forced by companies C and H. followed shortly by the entire regiment. Companies C and E, under command of Major Bishop, moving under cover of a strip of timber, surprised a body of insurgents, and, moving by the left flank, drove them to the west and north in the greatest dis- order, killing and wounding a large number. After an engagement last- ing an hour the enemy retreated, having suffered a heavy loss. The forces at San Fernando were again attacked during the night of June 22, the firing beginning on the east side of the city. It was heavy for a time, but by the time it reached the Twentieth Kansas it became half-hearted and was easily repulsed.
On June 24 the first and third- battalions, and on the 25th the second battalion, were returned to Manila, having been on the firing line since February 4-140 days. Those had been days of hardship and misery, beneath a tropical sun, whose intense rays heat down on the heads of the struggling lines as they fought their way forward across marshy rice- fields, through stagnant pools and over inmimerable rivers, and through almost impassable bamboo jungles ; it was a period of constant discomfort. Yet, with all this, every duty was cheerfully performed. The first and third battalions were quartered at the "Cuartel de Espana," and the second battalion at the "Cuartel del Fortin," where they remained, per- forming provost duty, until the 12th of July. On this date, companies C. D. H, and I, constituting the third battalion, were moved to Paranaque. and there reported to General Lawton, relieving a detachment of the Fourteenth U. S. Infantry. This battalion remained performing duty at this station until August 9, at which date they were marched back to Manila and assigned to the "Cuartel de Espana."
The foregoing sketch has made no reference to the losses that the regi- ment suffered. During those days of constant fighting the regiment suf- fered a loss of 3 officers and 30 enlisted men killed and 10 officers and 120 enlisted men wounded. The entire loss of the regiment by disease was 35 enlisted men. During that period on the firing line the regiment

always advaneed, driving the enemy before them-never making a retro- grade movement.
On the 2nd of September, 1899, the regiment embarked on the United States transport Tartar, and sailed out of Manila Bay on September 3, at 5:30 P. M., arriving at Hong-Kong on the morning of September 6, and remaining at this port until the afternoon of September 14. On this date the Tartar sailed by way of Maji and the Inland Sea to Yokohama, arriving on the evening of the 20th. On the morning of the 25th the transport sailed for San Francisco, reaching that port on the evening of October 10.
On the morning of the 11th the regiment disembarked and marched to camp at the Presidio, and on the 28th of October was mustered out and discharged from the serviee of the United States.
On the 3rd of November, at Topeka, a reception was extended to the members of the regiment by the people of Kansas, who came in vast numbers from all quarters of the state to do honor to the brave boys who had added a new luster to the name of Kansas.
The Twenty-first Kansas Volunteer Infantry was organized and mus- tered into the United States service at Topeka, Kansas, on May 12-14, 1898. As indicated by the muster-out rolls, the several companies were recruited at points indicated below :
Company A, Great Bend, May 14, 1898.
Company B, Garden City, Dodge City, and Larned, May 14, 1898.
Company C, Wichita, May 12, 1898.
Company D, Smith Center, May 14, 1898.
Company E, Hutchinson, May 12, 1898.
Company F, Winfield, May 13, 1898.
Company G, Osage City, May 13, 1898.
Company H, El Dorado, May 13, 1898.
Company I, Hays City, May 14, 1898.
Company K, Kingman, May 14, 1898.
Company L, Wellington, May 14, 1898.
Company M, Marion and MePherson, May 13, 1898.
On the 17th of May, 1898. the regiment left Topeka by rail for Lysle, Georgia, where it went into camp at Camp George II. Thomas, and remained at that station until August 25, 1898. During the time spent at this camp, the regiment was given constant and thorough military instruction, and soon became a well-disciplined body of troops ; and the officers and men waited anxiously for orders that would take them into active field service. Much siekness prevailed in the regiment during this time, and the twenty deaths from disease that the regiment suffered were nearly all at this camp, and from typhoid fever.
On August 25 the regiment was moved by rail to Camp Hamilton, Kentucky, arriving there on the 26th. The regiment remained at this station until September 25, 1898, on which date it was ordered to pro-

ceed to Fort Leavenworth, Kansas, preparatory to the muster-out of the regiment.
Arrived at Fort Leavenworth September 27, and immediately went into camp. On the succeeding day the regiment was furloughied for thirty days. This furlough was extended to November 10, 1898.
The regiment was mustered out and discharged from the United States service on December 10, 1898.
This regiment was made up of sturdy material, well officered, and it is a sonree of regret to officers and men that they were not given an opportunity to demonstrate their efficieney in the field.
The companies constituting the Twenty-second Kansas Volunteer Infantry were made up from the local county and the counties adja- cent to the several recruiting stations designated below :
Company A, at Parsons.
Company B, at Concordia.
Company C, at Beloit.
Company D, at Holton.
Company E, at Emporia.
Company F, at Columbus.
Company G, at Norton.
Company H, at Emporia.1
Company I, at Clay Center.
Company K, at Seneca.
Company L, at Atchison.
Company M, at Blue Rapids.2
Immediately after organization the various companies proceeded by rail to Topeka and went into quarters at Camp Leedy, where the men of each company were re-examined and mustered into the service of the United States. on the several dates from May 11 to 17, ineln- sive, for a period of two years, unless sooner discharged.
The regiment remained at Camp Leedy until May 25, when it broke camp and proceeded by the Missouri Pacific and Baltimore & Ohio railways to Camp Alger, Virginia, where it arrived May 28. While at Camp Alger the War Department directed the regiment to be recruited to a maximum of 106 enlisted men to each company. For this purpose a limited number of officers were obtained to fill the regiment to its maximum strength of 1,272 enlisted men.
After a little more than two months of incessant drill and other military instruction necessary to fit reernits for active service in the field, the regiment marehed from Camp Alger to Thoroughfare, Vir- ginia, a distance of about fifty miles, camping by way at Burke's Sta-
1 Company II was known as the "College Company," and was made up of students of the State Normal School, the State University, and the State Agricultural College and Washburn College.

tion, Bull Run, and Bristow, arriving at Thoroughfare on August 9.
On August 27 the regiment was again moved, by rail, to Camp Meade, near Middletown, Pa., and on September 9, from thence to Fort Leavenworth, Kansas.
At Fort Leavenworth the regiment was furloughed for thirty days, preparatory to being mustered out of the service. The regiment was mustered out and discharged on November 3, 1898.
The Twenty-second Kansas was composed largely of farmers' sons, with a liberal percentage of young men from the various institutions of learning of the state. With such material, had the exigencies of the service called the regiment to the field, its record would not have discredited the fair name of the state it represented.
The Twenty-third Kansas Volunteer Infantry was a two-battalion organization, of eight companies, and was composed entirely of col- ored men. Lieut .- Colonel James Beck commanded the regiment dur- ing its term of service. The membership was well scattered through the towns in the eastern part of the state. A majority of each com- pany was recruited in the vicinity of the towns specified below; the date given is the date of the muster-in of each company :
Company A, Topeka, July 2, 1898.
Company B, Lawrence, July 5, 1898.
Company C, Kansas City, Kan., July 9, 1898.
Company D, Fort Scott, July 9, 1898.
Company E, Wichita, July 14, 1898.
Company F, Parsons, Coffeyville, and Fort Scott, July 16, 1898.
Company G, Kansas City, Kan., July 16, 1898.
Company H, Atchison, July 19, 1898.
The regiment broke camp at Topeka on August 22, 1898, and pro- ceeded to New York by rail.
It sailed from New York on August 25, on the steamer Vigilancia for Santiago, Cuba, arriving there August 31, 1898. The regiment proceeded immediately by rail to San Luis, reaching that point on September 1. Hostilities having ceased, the duties which devolved upon the regiment, though arduous, were of a peaceful character. Excellent discipline was maintained and all duties were cheerfully and faithfully performed.
The regiment camped in the vicinity of San Luis until February 28, 1899, when it proceeded by rail to Santiago, where it embarked on the steamer Minnewaska, on March 1, 1899, and sailed for New- port News, Virginia, arriving there March 5, 1899.
On March 6 the regiment procceded by rail to Fort Leavenworth, Kansas, reaching that point on the 10th of same month. The regiment was mustered out on April 10, 1899.
The Twenty-third Kansas was an organization that soon became thoroughly drilled and maintained at all times excellent discipline. The
