IL NOT GIVE UP DA GAmA

- - =
 He Has Taken Refuge on . Portu-
 guese Man.of-War, and Though .
 Demand Has Been Made fer Ills
 Surrender No Ansvver Has Been
 Given.
 RIO pr JANKRo, March 16.-Admiral da Gama and his eight officers are still on the Portuguese corvette Aindsllo, to which they were trsnsferxed by the French cruiser Magoun. The government applied to the Portuguese government for the sur render of tke insurgent admiral and his staff. The captain declined to give ds Gams up and the cabinet sent . dispatch to Lisbon repeating the application, which the minister had rejected. Admiral da Gama was described in this dispatch as e military criminal and dsfaulter, having nothing In common with the ordinary po- litical refugee.
 The Lisbon government has not yet re- turned an answer. The Portuguese mer- chant steamer Ciudad do Porto was fired on by the forts as she Was leaving the har- bor last night. She was compelled eventu- ally to stop, and she was searched by gov srnment officials who marched ashore nfnety-one insurgents found among the crew and passengers. The total number of prisoners taken by the government ex- ceeds l 200. Among them are the sick and wounded and many who were forced against their will into the insurgent ser vice. The fighting men who have been captured number 475 or 500.
 Little trustworthy neWa has been re- ceived from the south. It is not certain where the insurgent cruiser Aquidabsn is or what Admiral Mello Is doing. The of the land troops are only sur missed. The insurgents profess not to know what General Sarsiva's plans are or where he and his men have been during the last ten days.
