A BATTLEON THE WATER
TWO CHILEAN VESSELS BLOWN
TO PIECES.

a Shell From Valparaiso's Forts Sub
sequently Goes Through One of the
Victorious Rebel Men-of- War-The
Insurgents at Iquique Said to be in
Desperate Straits.
SANTIAGO, CHILE, April 1.-The elections
just held have resulted in complete tri-
umph for the liberals.
1t is reported that the situation in which
the insurgents at Iquique find themselves is
a most desperate one. Everything is
at famine prices and the supply Of
coal is exhausted. The insurgent
squadron is securing the coast in the hope
Of capturing colliers. The Chilean govern
ment fiotilla, consisting of two gunboats,
three torpedo boats and an armed cruiser, is
almost ready to proceed to the rebel ships.
A desperate conflict appears to be ineVit-
able.
A BATTLE ON THE WATER.
SAN Francisco, CAL April Private
advices from Valparaiso state that the iron
clad Blanco, belonging to the insurgents,
recently attempted to blow up the armed
government tug Florence with a fish tor
pedo. The torpedo missed the tug
but struck big floating dry
dock in the harbor, blowing it
to pieces. The Blanco was thereupon
treated to hot fire of shot
and shell from every gun In the forts and
steamed out of the harbor. The same night
a torpedo boat and the tug Florence stole
out to attack the Blanco. The iron-clad
was not alone, being in company with
the sloop-of-war O'Higgins. Both ships
compelled the government vessels TO return
to the harbor and followed in hot pursuit.
THE FLORENCE SUNK.
A heavy shell fired from the Blanco
struck the Florence, blowing her entirely
out Of the water, and every one of her crew
of seventeen men we're either killed or
wounded. A broadside from the O'Higgins
knocked the torpedo boat all to pieces The
two insurgent vessels then turned their at
tention to the fort, and a lively battle en-
sued. A shell from the forts struck the
O'Higgins and went clear through
her. Another shell caused the gun
on her quarter deck to explode.
When the smoke cleared away the deck was
found to have been literally torn off the
vessel, and nine men out of the guns crew
of twelve were blown to atoms. The sloop
was at once taken out of the range of the
guns in the forts.
