HOW THE MARIA TERESA SANK
Further Particulars Regarding the Dis

Spanish Cruiser.

Charleston, s. c., Nov. THE ocean
tug Merritt put into Charleston and
reported the loss OF the Maria Teresa,
raised BY Constructor Hobson recently,
off San Salvador, Bahamas, November
in the midst OF furious storm. The
cruiser left Caimanera, Cuba, on the
morning of October 80 in tow for New
York. She had already passed Cape
Maysi and started northeast around
the Bahamas. A furious storm, warn
ing OF which had already been sent
out, overlook her and In her condition
she was unable to weather the gale.
The strain opened rents in her hull,
which had been patched to enable her
to make the journey, and she began to
fll rapidly. The Merritt took of
Capt. Hal'ris and the crew from the
sinking ship and she soon went down.
The Merritt brought the captain and
1856 men, who will proceed north by
rail. No lives were lost As near a

STRONGER FORCE NEEDED.
American Troops In Manila Have . Pre-

of MAI. Simpson.

Washington, Nov. a-Maj. Simpson.
Of Gen. .Merritt's staff, has just returned
from Manila, and, though personally
he does not seem TO fear serious trouble
with the forces OF Aguinaldo, he says
there Is a distinct sentiment among
the United States troops that there
may be more trouble and that more
troops may be needed. Aguinaldo's
force is reckoned at about 30, 1000, and
Maj Simpson freely admits that the
rebels are In control OF the island
OF Luzon. The recent attack on
Iloilo by the forces OF Aguin-
aldo recalled to Maj Simpson the fact
that Aguinaldo had some transports
and that about 500 OF the Luzon troops
had been carried to the island Of
Panay. On tho island OF Mindanao
the situation Is not understood, as the
inhabitants are mostly Mohammedans
Little or no investigation OF the situa-
tlon there has been made by our army.
Back In the hills of Luzon many tribes
are almost uncivilized, and have never
felt the force Of either the
insurgents or Spaniards To COM
plicate the situation the priests
are now intriguing to make the rebels
discontented with Aguinaldo and to
set up another insurgent chief. Should
all the islands pass into the hands Of
the United States the situation might
be one of surprises. The fact that
Aguinaldo's troops attacked 1loilo, &C
cording to Maj. Simpson, shows thai
Aguinaldo has not acquiesced In the
decision involved In the fall of Manila
