A BRUSH WITH THE NATIVES.
The Moros Take Possession of a
Lighthouse Established by Our
Navy and are Dispersed.

Washington, Aug. S.-The following
dispatch was received from Admiral
Watson, in command of the Asiatic
station:
Secretary of the Navy-Nazro, the
commander of the Manila, on July IL.
re-established lighthouse at Cape Mel
vile, Balabac, Philippine islands, and
hoisted flag with appropriate honors.
July IS, on his return, 13 Moros, un-
der arms, were found to be in possess
sion of the lighthouse. Landing party.
commanded by Ensign f. L. Bissett,
encountered resistance. No casualty
in our party. Loss in killed, one Of
ficer and one man of the enemy.
Dieago Manalo, chief of the Balabac
Moras, was killed, seven taken prison
ers; two escaped. Chief of party was
very unpopular with the people of
Balabac, Philippine islands, owing to-
fear of him. Light has been restored.
Manila has landed force. Charlestown
is on her way to Balabac, and will rem
der all assistance possible.
WATSON"
The island of Balabac, the scene of
the brush with the Moros, detailed in
Admiral Watson's dispatch. is situated
southeast of the Island of Palawan,
which is the most westerly of the
Philippine islands and directly west of
the Island of Panay. The light which
was established there by Lieutenant
Commander Nazro shows for 25 miles
and is regarded as of considerable i'm
portance to navigation, being in direct
line between Singapore and the
Straits settlements and the islands to.
the north. The island is 90 miles long
and according to information in the
possession of the department, has but
a population of LOO. These are de-
scribed in Admiral Watson's dispatch
as Moros, the name applied to the,
fierce natives of the Sulu group. They
are Mohammedans and are regarded
as the most warlike people in the Phil.
ippines. The capital, Balabac, has a
population of 200. The Spanish gov
ernment established a military post
there in 1857. 1t consists of bar
racks, hospital and an armed fort.
The Manila, the vessel described in
the dispatch, is captured transport
Its mission in that vicinity is unknown
to the navy department

A FAR-REACHING DECISION.
1t VIII i'm Large Measure Cut Or
AguinaIdO's supply of Mod
ern Rifles and Guns.

Washington, Aug. 7.-Hon. John
Goodnow, consul general of the United
States at Shanghai, has rendered a de-
cision as referee in the consular court
which will be of far-reaching import
ance during the continuance of the
war in the Philippines. The case was
in relation to the steamer Abbey,
charged with taking arms from Can
ton to Luzon. It has been in conten-
ton for some time.
The owners of the vessel gave bond
that the ship should land the arms
purchased at Singapore, but she did
not do so. The bond was demanded
by the Chinese customs authorities.
Mr.. Goodnow holds that it must be paid.
The Importance of the decision is
pointed out by the Shanghai Mercury.
which says:
1.-The effect of the decision of Mr..
Goodnow reaches much beyond the
mere fact of being judgment for the
plaintiff with the penalty of the bond
and costs of suit. Hitherto the Amer
lean forces at Manila had to fight
against Filipino forces well armed
with modern rifles and guns, and it is
no secret that the majority of these
arms have been landed in the Philip
pines from Chinese ports. When United
States consular officials have received
information that cargoes of weapons
were about to be shipped from China.
their urgent protests to the Chinese
authorities have been the means OF
stopping shipments. But when the
tod Tot off1 io1c rf
knowledge, have been ignorant of such
contraband runs, the Chinese officials
have likewise been blind to these ship
ments, though no doubt well aware oi
such"
On the strength of that Judgment
the officers of the imperial maritime
customs of China must necessarily dc
all in their power to stop shipments OF
arms to suspicious destinations. 1t has
been decided on the motion of the ,on,
sui that China is liable for any ship
ments of arms which get to the Phil
ippines through lack of diligence and
honesty on the part of the Chinese
customs officials. Therefore the judy
ment in the Drew versus Sylvester
case will be the means of checking the
chief source of supply of arms and
warlike material that the Filipinos
have possessed"
The North China Daily News pub
fishes the decision of Cousul-Generni
Goodnow in full and comments edi-
torially upon its Importance in the
matter of preventing further ship
ments of arms to the insurgents in
the Philippines, and says that it will
be far-reaching in its effect in stop
ping the sending of arms to the Fill
pinos.

An Interesting Historical Fact.
An interesting historical fact dating
back to 1873 has come to light in
which Admiral Dewey was the central
figure. Dewey, then a commander,
was in command of the United States
steamship Narragansett,o on the Asiatic>
station, having taken charge of the
vessel on March /, 1873.
The vessel was on surveying duty
when the Virginius trouble was pre-
cipitated and a war with Spain
seemed imminent.
Commander Dewey wrote to the
navy department requesting that in
case war was declared he should be as
signed to the duty of capturing Ma
Mia.
The peaceful settlement of the con-
troversy with Spain avoided the neces-
sity for hostile demonstration, but
the interesting fact is that the dough-
ty officer had his eye on Manila over II
quarter of a century ago. y search
will be made for the letter in the files
of the navy department and if found
it is expected an effort will be made
by the citizens committee to have it
reproduced as souvenir of the re-
ception.
