Revolt. Tells Why It Failed.
One Of the passengers on the steamer Philadel.
phia, which arrived here from Porto Rico on
Tuesday, was Jos6 Bellon Budet. military leader
Of the recent uprising in that island. He says
that the reason why the movement was a fail
ure was that the Spanish were warned in time of
the impending revolt, and that tho rebels first
step would be to fall upon Yauco. in the south
eastern part OF the island. and capture q consid-
cradle supply Of firearms.
Tho Spanish authorities. accordingly. took
precautions which resulted in preventing the
insurgents from carrying out their plans. Thus
deprived Of firearms. there was little or no hope
for the movement to spread and the men sur
rendered.
As to the chiefs. Bellon, his brother Manuel
and Felix velcz, remained In the field. going
succeeded In smuggling themselves out of tho
Island. The last two went to St Thomas and
jose Bellon was booked on the Philadelphia as
q passenger under an assumed name.
Bellon adds that the feeling In the country is
evidently In favor of a revolution against Spain;
but it would be folly to pretend to start 1t before
adequate means are taken into the island
