MORE OF THE FIGHT.

Further Details of the Battle Between
| Brazilian Insurgents and GOvernm ent
Troops Near Nictheroy-Adm. Da CANA
Wounded.
RIO DE JANEIRo. Feb. 9, VIA MONTE
vIDEo, Feb 11.-At o'clock this MORN
| ing 500 insurgents attacked Armecao
| and Ponta da Areia in the vicinity of
! Nictheroy. Launches conveying land
ing parties left the Island of Conceieao
at $3.50 a. m. and succeeded in reaching
: the mainland without discovery. Half
an hour after heavy firing occurred on
both sides. The government troops
retired, leaving five officers and forty
men prisoners, and six officers and fifty
/ men killed.
At o'clock, reinforcements of over
1000 men arriving. the government
troops again advanced under a heavy
fire of rifles and machine guns, the
Krupp battery, stationed on the island
| of Gaia. opposite Ponta da Arela, also
being engaged. Adm da CANA further
attempted to check the advance of the
troops by calling for reinforcements of
100 men from the island of Conceicoa,
and by sending launches from the
cruiser Libertad close to the shore of
the mainland. These efforts stopped
the advance and caused heavy losses to
the government troops. Then their
ammunition fell short, their fire slack
ened and the troops slowly gained
ground.
After three hours fighting the troops
were within half mile of Armacao,
and Adm. da Cana decided to with
draw his sailors, finding it impossible
to remain there on account of the over
whelming number of the enemy. The
Libertad's armed launch continued to
hold the troops while insurgents en-
barked at Armacao, the Aquidaban
covering their retreat. The Libertad's
launches were close to Ponta da Areia
and received the brunt of the enemy's
fire.
1t was IL o'clock before the last of
the insurgents embarked, after spik-
ing the government battery of heavy
guns at Armacao. The insurgent loss
was five officers and thirty men killed
and twenty officers and forty wounded.
1t is impossible to obtain correct re-
buth hS, Dub tiC ID ohPPOoCo
to have fifteen officers and $50 men
killed and many wounded. Adm. da
CANA has bullet wounds in his neck
and arm, but they are not dangerous.
The press correspondent was slightly
wounded in the throat by Manlnicher
bullet
Both sides displayed bravery, but the
sailors were demoralized at the finish
by the large number of the enemy and
fred wildly. Stifl the withdrawal was
orderly and without sign of panic. The
government claims a decisive victory
and 1, 500 men have gone to reinforce
the garrison of Nictheroy.
Adm. de Mello, with the Republica, is
now at DesterrO.
wOUNDING OF DA CANA CONFIRMED.
WASHINGTON, Feb. ia dispatch
has been received at the state depart
ment from Minister Thompson at Rio
de Janeiro concerning the engagement
between government and insurgent
forces at Nictheroy on Saturday. The
insurgents succeeded in landing, but
were driven back to their ships by the
government forces. Da CANA was
wounded in the breast and arms, but
it is not known how seriously.
