FATALITIES IN BRAZIL
The Internal War Assumes q More
Serious Aspect.

LISBON, Jan. 16.-Ds stalls of the defeat OF
the government force under General
Telles, which attacked the Ilha do Cover
nador on Dec. Is. have reached this city
by mail. The island had been occupied
by the insurgents since September. Pres
ident Peixoto had been led 10 believe that
the capture of the island would be an
easy task. owing to the absence of any
movement on the island denoting that the
insurgents there were in force. The at
tack was, therefore, ordered. The govern
ment roops were conveyed TO the island
and landed without the slightest opposi-
ton being offered 10 them. In fact, the
government forces saw nobody while
effectiug their landing. Thinking that
the island was practically theirs without
a struggle, the troops advanced carelessly
aud marched directly into an ambu scad
the insurgents had prepared for them.
Suddenly a deadly fire was poured into
them, and before they could rally and
form ranks TO repel the enemy the. insur-
gents sprang from their hiding places aud
charged Gen. Telle's command with fixed
b~ayonets. The ground was covered with
the slain.
Gen. Telles was one OF the first TO be
struck down. He was hit in both legs
with a shot from a machine gun. Ad-
miral da Cana, the leader of the insur-
gents, permitted the removal of Gen.
Telles TO tho mainland for medical at
tendance. IL was found necessary TO am
putate both his legs. Death from shock
and loss of blood followed soon after the
operation had been performed.
The rout of the government troops was
complete. Some of them to escape the
insurgents threw themselves into the sea.
Others sought TO gain the interior of the
island, but were either shot or bsyonetted
by the insurgents.

Terrific Explosion on a
Steamer at Bordeaux.
Excitement ut Lancaster, Pa. Over
the Discovery OF a Heavily Charged
Bomb Western Bank Wrecked
Dynamite Plot at salem. ..

BORDEAUX, Jan. 1S.-The French steamer
kqusteur, Captain Moreau, from Rio ia
Metro for this port arrived az Paulllac
yesterday afternoon. After the customary
sojourn for custom house formslities she
proceeded in company with the tenders
upon which the passengers and mails had
been transferred As she teamed slowly
up the river the officers entered the safe
COON with the object OF removing valua'
ole postal parcels, when a violent explo-
sion occurred shaking the vessel through
Dut. The safe room, adjacent cooks gal
ley and stewards cabin were all shattered.
The galley bulkheads and thick iron
plates of the lower deck were bent and
broken.
Two sailors were killed outright, one
had his face shattered 80 badly he cannot
live, and another was less seriously in
jured.
The plate glass in the port holes for a
long distance from the saferoom was atom
lied. The commissary OF the port OF
Bordeaux opened an inquiry. The con-
census of opinion is that dynamite ex-
ploded the moment one of the men killed
lifted a package of ostrich feathers, guam
titles of which were scattered in the vicin-
ity and other packages rent open. The
wrecked galley was nearly hidden by
ostrich plumes.

REBELS POSITION CRITICAL
Their Fresh Water aud Food supply
Growing Quite Limited.

WASHINGTON. Jan. 1.-THE admission
Of Admiral ds Cana contained in the de
spatches from Rio Janeiro regarding the
possible length of time which the insur-
gents in the Bay OF Rio can hold out under
existing conditions are confirmed by ad-
vices received In Washington.
These advioes state that Da Gama's
position Is more critical than he admits.
His forces are without fresh water aud
their God supply Is also said To be growing
quite limited. IL is conceded that II the
insurgents gained a foothold In Nictheroy
their position would be greatly improved,
but the probability of their enecting n
landing becomes more remote every day.
