British omcsrs Murdered by M.l.ys.


SINGAPORE, April "A Pahang native
who has arrived here declars that two
British officers named Stewart and Harris
have been murdered by Malays at the
villages of Kualakinchi and Sungeiduri.
The murdcrers are believed to have been
commanded by the important chief. Pang
Lima Muda, who was expected to
make an attack on Pekan or
Pahang, the center of the European
trade in Pahang, on the night of April 8.
1t is thought the chief intended to
plumber the place. The Europeans have
stockaded the Jail and sent the ladies to
the mouth of the Pahang river to embark
on the first steamer. The entire garrison
at Pekan consists of twenty Sikhs. Re
Inducements have been dispatched from
Singapore. 1t is rumored that the sultan
of Pahang has instigated the revolt.
fPahang is on the western slope of the Malay
peninsula on the China sea, and is one OF the
largest of the states of the peninsula The chief
town is Pekan, on the Pahang river, not great
distance from the coast, and about 20 miles
from Singapore. The ruler of this state is
known as the sultan OF Pa
hang, who endesyors to retain indie
pendence by currying favor with both
the British officials and with the king of Siam.
He treats the British with difference and pays
tribute to Slams king by sending every year
golden vase and silver rose. The sultan re-
sides at Pekan. The products OF the country are
spices, gums, gutts percha, cocoanut oils and
minerals. The natives are small of stature, 1.-the
and vigorous frame, broad features with higi
cheek bones, coarse black hair and small eyes.
Their features have an intelligent expression.
The greater portion of the nation are agri-
culturists, while the floating population are
mostly pirates. There has been trouble in
Pahang for some time past, 1t being reported
that this was due to rebellion among the sui
tan's subjects.l
