OUTRAGES IN PORTO RICO.
Lawless Gangs of Brigands Operating
with Low Glass Natives.

San Juan de Porto Rico Sept. 16.-
More depredations are reported to
have been made i'm the neighborhood Of
Utuado. Several places have been
burned and two Spanish planters were
killed. These outrages were attributed
to the lower classes of the natives. ac-
tuated by a spirit of revenge, and a
lawless gang of brigands which has
been operating near Cialema. The
Spanish planters fear for their lives
and are extremely anxious that the
Americans should obtain control in or
der to afford them protection, as the
United states is powerless now to pre-
serve order within Spanish lines.
on petition of practically all the resi-
dents of Ttuado, General Harry has
appointed Senior Martinez governor OF
the city. Utuado is the first town In
the island TO possess officers chosen by
the popular Will
The steamer Juan Forges arrived
here from Barcelona with provisions
for the Spanish troops, but as there is
a supply for two months still here, the
steamer proceeded to Havana, where
she will discharge. After the details Of
the evacuation have been completed
the movable property and military
equipments which the Spaniards pos
sess may be properly removed. II they
desire 70 do so, inventoried separately.
The details Of the evacuation of the
island were practically completed at
the meeting of the commission held to-
day. and all now depends upon when
the Madrid government shall place
transports at the disposal of Captain
General Macias for the embarkation of
the troops. Failure to send transports
will embarrass the Spanish commits
sioners but the American commission
ers will probably not set an absolute
time limit for the evacuation without
instructions from Washington.
The Spaniards do not desire to con-
centrate all their troops here for fear
of endangering their health, until they
are informed when the transports will
arrive In addition TO Lares, Aguidallo
and San Sebastian, the Spanish will
evacuate the island of Vieques on Mon

AN INFURIATED SPANISH MOB
AFTER THE OFFICER.
Angered by the sight of Soldiers Landing
Barefooted and Nearly Naked.
Toral Flees to the Leon NIII.

Vigo Spain. Sept 16-About 700 people
besieged the house OF General Toral to-
day, demanding that'the troops which ar
rived here yesterday from Santiago de
Cuba on board the Spanish steamer Leon
XIII be Immediately landed. They pro-
ceeded to the quays, cheering the troops,
and were with difficulty dispersed by the
soldiers of the garrison. Afterwards a
crowd of about 1900 returned to the quays
and when they saw the soldiers landing
barefooted and nearly naked they became
infuriated and surrounded General Torals
house, hooting, kissing and stoninE the
building. Eventually the Spanish general
succeeded in escaping to the Leon XIII.
on learning this the mob ga thered on
the dock and stoned the steamer for half
