Trouble Among Insurgents.

Hong Kong, July 2.-According to pri
vate letters from Cavite dated June 21,
the insurgents occupy the whole OF Bull
acan province, occasional skirmishes oc-
curing there The insurgents captured
the Spanish ship Bahul in kayabo bay,
while she was landing 500 troops. 4 stub
born fight occurred, in which the Spanish
commander, a lieutenant colonel, was
killed. The insurgents have captured the
governor of Bulacan, together with his
wife and children.
General Aguinaldo placed under arrest
the rebel leaders, Artachio and Sandlco,
for having revealed the fact that the
steamer Passig. recently seized by the
Hong Kong authorities, was laden with
arms for the insurgents. Sandico appealed
to Consul Williams and was liberated.
He is now on board the Nanshan.
1t is feared that the incident will cause
split in the insurgent party, Sandico
being influential and the only insurgent
leader capable of administration. The in
su1gents fear that General Aga,inaldo will
shoot Artachio, unless Admiral Dewey in
terferes, as he is suspicious that Sandlco
intended to form an opposition party.

A NEW ORLEANS CHRISTMAS.
The Din and Dazzle of Fireworks
Make 1t Like Fourth of July.

'1he days preceding Christmas are
punctuated at intervals with the shaup
tones of firecrackers, merely to keep the
world from forgetting that Christmas is
almost at hand,' writes Julia Truitt BiSh-
op of ''Where Christmas is Like Fourth
of July" descriptive of Christmas scenes
and customs in New Orleans, in the July
Ladies' Home journal. "One frecracker
at time is set off, for it is sinful to
waste whole bunch at once until Christ
mas eve. Every night the tumult in
creases, a kind of jubilant applause in
mild explosives, a r'ere intimation OF
what is coming later. Every business
house which can under any pretense
handle fireworks, handles item by the
ton. Even the windows of the grocery
stores are filled with them. for the grocer
has recognized that there are people in
New Orleans who may dispense with roast
turkey stuffed with trufties, but nobody
can do without fireworks. There are
hundreds of children who never hang up
a stocking, but every one of them would
think the world was coming to an end
if there were no fireworks for him on the
one night of all the yea,

LITTLE GUNBOATs' VICTORY
OvershndOwed by the Great Success
but IL Good Fight Itself.

New York, July "A dispatch to the
Herald from off Santiago, via Playa del
Este, July ?, says:
Three vessels of Admiral Sampson 5
fleet have just returned from an adven-
turous expedition to AIanzanillo, during
which they sank two Spanish gunboats,
one sloop and one pontoon, disabled a
Spanish torpedo boat, considerably dam
aged several of the enemy's gunboats and
compelled the captain Of a troop ship to
| run towards shore.
One of Admiral SIMPSONS vessels, the
Hist, was struck IL times and another,
the Hornet, was disabled by shell which
hit her main stem-pipe. She was towed
out of danger.
Admiral Sampson sent the Hist, the
Hornet and the Wampatuek to NIanzanilo
to destroy four Spanish gunboats which
the admiral had been informed were lying
in that harbor Instead of encountering
that number of vessels the Americans Ell
countered nine vessels, including toE
pedo boat and cruiser. They also founI
the most of the vessels flanked by the
land batteries and armed pontoons. while
a heavy battery of artillery was in posi-
ton on the water front to aid in making
warm the reception of Simpsons vessels.
Hornet Hit by Shell.
When the firing was the hottest a shell
went scurrying in the direction OF the
Hornet striking in the stem pipe of that
vessel, scattering over the deck and doing
great damage. As soon as the Hist and
the Wampatuck discovered that the Hor
net was disabled their captains decided i
would be useless to fight longer against
such a superior enemy. Accordingly the
Wampatuck hastened to the rescue of the
Hornet, the Hist meantime keeping up
its sharpest fire. After the Wampatuck
had succeeded i'll getting line on the
Hornet she steamed out to sea with the
disabled vessel in tow. The Hist followed
close after pouring shot at the enemy
until out of range.
During the engagement the American
vessels succeeded in sinking one of the
Spanish gunboats, one sloop and damag-
ing one torpedo boat. They also did much
damage to several gtnboats in the harbor
and made a marked impression on the
Spanish land batteries.
AS if this was not enough excitement
for one small auxiliary cruiser, the Hist
poked her nose into Neguira bay and dis
covered Spanish gunboat lying there.
She Immediately opened fire on the Span
lard, which taken SO completely by sur
prise, replied feebly and inaccurately. She
was sunk by the Hist in 10 minutes.

Attack ON San Juan.

New York, July IA dispatch to the
Evening World, dated ''In the field, two
miles from Santiago, July T. and cabled
from Playa del Este, says:
San Juan heights have fallen and the
way is now opened for the advance on
Moro castle. 1t was glorious victory.
but very dearly purchased. The place
was the strongest Spanish outpost, well
fortified and valiantly defended. The po-
sition was an excellent one. 1t was also
occupied by barracks and other buildings,
but the American troops stormed the
heights and Spanish valor had to yield to
the bull dog tenacity and courage OF the
Anglo Saxon.
AS I write our troops are swarming up
the hill and covering it like ants. The
Spaniards are demoralized. The fighting
has been of the hardest kind, and our
troops have suffered severely, but the ell
env's works are in their hands and they
don't count the cost
FL Caney is also ours. The general ad-
vance, which began at P M, has been
successful all along the line. After driv-
ing the enemy out Of Ell Caney, the troops
took possession of the village and de
stroyed the Spanish forts by which it had
been defended. The Spaniards fled into
Santiago, where they now are. Losses on
both sides are very heavy. The bursting
of Spanish shell almost annihilated an
entire company of our troops.
The heavy volley firing was heard fol
three hours 1t seemed to indicate a strong
American advance. There is no artillery
firing from FL Caney and only scattering
shots come from San Juan. Both divisions
are really in battle
The day is clear and a moderate breeze
blowing, but there is strong heat. The
troops are in good condition. The bat
terry has shot 100 rounds, two-thirds shell:
and the balance shrapnel. The military
balloon used by the signal corps for the
purpose of obtaining accurate information
as to the loca ton of the enemy and the
character of defenses, proved of inestima

Vancouver, B. c., June 3O.-Mail ad-

rule has extended to the Caroline islands.
The Spanish have only small garrison
there, and as they are unable to send
relief it is likely that the rebels will soon
have control.
