COnnell's Men in Samar.

MANILA, Oct. 2-The latest advices from
the island of Samar give narrowing details
of the slaughter of the members of Com
pany c, Ninth United States Infantry, last

friendly, led the assault in person.
On hearing of the slaughter Col. Isaac
d. De Russy. of the Eleventh Infantry,
started for the scene Immediately with a
battalion. The body of Captain Connen
had been tied at the heels, saturated with
kerosene and partly burned.
Forty-fve bodies had been burned in a
trench, leaving. seven unaccounted for. The
charred remains of many were recovered.
In numerous instances the bodies had
been mutilated.
Three hundred Macabebes also will be
dispatched to the scene Of the massacre

a typhoon.
