REBELLION IN FORMOSA.
Two Bloody Battles, i'm Which Natives
Were Defeated.

were Oefeattu
Tacoma, WASH, Sept. lo.-Mail adj
sices from Japan state that another
formidable rebellion against Japanese
rule has broken out in Formosa, this
time in the southern part of the island.
Two battles have been fought, one near
Taichu, the other near Taihoku- The
tribes were defeated by the Japanese
troops and the police. Many were killed
and wounded on each side, but details
are not obtainable. The rebellion is
the outcome of an attempt by the Jap
anese administration to extend its ju-
risdiction over The semi-savage tribes
living in the interior.
According to official reports, sum-
mary of rebellious outbreaks in For
mosa during the last year shows that
1000 persons were concerned in 1,700
attacks in different parts of the island
Five hundred persons were killed and
wounded by these seni-savages, 1,500
captured and over 200 houses burned.
Their booty was valued at 257, 900 yen.
On the other hand 946 robbers were
killed and l, $50 taken prisoners.

Porto Rico.
San Juan de Porto Rico, Sept. 49,
The preparations for the embarkation
Of the Spanish troops are reported to
be complete, although the American
commissioners have not been officially
advised to that effect.
Two ships of the Campania Trans
Atlantic are expected to arrive here on
the goth inst. Five vessels will be
required to transport all the luggage
and field artillery and equipment. The
Porto Rican troops are to be landed
near Cadiz. The United States COM
missioners have agreed that such
troops as desire to remain here may do
so, and especially all the volunteers
and some of the regulars whose farni-
lies and interests are here will remain.
If the necessary ships were here the
island could be evacuated and formally
In our possessions within three days.
The American commissioners are
highly gratified with the spirit shown
by the Spaniards. The unexpected has
happened. Where twas expected that
opposition and delay would be encoun-
tered, none has been found. In good
faith the Spanish commissioners have
met the Americans and arranged with
them the terms of evacuation. Our
commissioners expect to see the Amer
lean flag hoisted and the Spanish flag
hauled down forever within three
weeks.
