6nOrtly dfter the entrance OF the
army of Gen. Canto Capt Alberto
Fuentes, of the torpedo boat Almirante
Lynch, which was lying at the Fiscal
Mole, was summoned to surrender. He
attempted to steam out, and opened fire
with his machine guns on the insur-
gent troops There was sharp en-
gagement, lasting fifteen minutes. and
then Capt Fuentes hauled down his
flag and there was not an enemy TO the
revolution from Fort Valdivia to Vina
del Mar.
Nobody here has any knowledge of
the whereabouts of President Balma-
ceda- The insurgent leaders are ex-
ceedingly anxious to find out where he
is, and II they succeed in finding him
the chances are that it win go hard
with him. The general belief here is
that he Is making his way out of the
country, perhaps overland to Buenos
Ayres.
