THAT DISASTROUS BATTLE.
Full Report of the Company c
Massacre


Washington, Oct. 4 Lieut.. DruilIard
OF the Ninth infantry, Company c.,
which was 80 nearly annihiIated by in
surgents of Samar, has made the follow
ing report:
September Oath, while at breakfast,
Company G. was attacked at signal,
the ringing of the convent bells, by
abOt 45O bolOmen, 200 from rear Of the
quarters, 200 from the front simutan-
eOusly attacking officers quarters. The
company was completely surprised. The
force attacking the front gained posses
sion OF arms. A fight enaued for them
in which most of the men met death. In
the mess room in the rear the enemy was
beaten OFF temporarily by about 25 men
who gained their arms. Sergeant BetrOn
assumed command and endeaVOred to
collect the men and leave in boat, was
reattacked by the enemy. Strength Of
cOmmand-Three officers, 72 men; killed
three officers, 40 enlisted men; missing,
q; wounded, 13; present 49, The party
attacking the officers in the convent re-
tired through the church; large numbers
were led by presidente. There we're prob
ably 101 rifles with the company. 26
saved, 10 OF the lost rifles drawn, 25, 900
rounds ammunition lost. Ninety five
prisoners outside Quartet Joined in at
tack at signal. Boat of missing men of
the company seized. Captain Book

town, firing one shot. Buried three
officers, 29 men, number of bodies
burned in quarters, buildings tired as we
entered. Secured or destroyed most of
rations. All ordnance gone. Insurgents
secured 81 serviceable rifles, $4,000
cartridges, 48 men of Company C, Ninth
infantry, and one hospital corps man
killed or missing, % men accounted for,
found two in boat en- route here. Buried
dead, burned town, returned to Basey
will Punish Them.
Washington, Oct. 5.-The latest ad-
vices from the Philippines indicate that
the military authorities intend to take
prompt and vigorous measures for the
suppression of the insurrection in the
Island OF Samar, and that attention will
be directed first to the summary punish
ment OF the treacherOus natives who
took part IN the massacre of Company
G, of the Ninth Infantry, at Balangiga
There is, therefore, every prospect that
the Island OF Samar will be the theater
Of active hOstilities for some time to
come, as it is the purpose of General
Chaffee to teach the rebellious inhabit-
ants lesson and force them to respect
the power and sovereignty of the United
States.

Brain-Food Nonsense,

Another ridiculous food fad has been
branded by the most competent authori-
ties. They have dispelled the silly no.
ton that one kind of food is needed for
brain, another for muscles, and still an
other for bones. A correct diet will not
only nourish a particular part OF the
body, but it will sustain every other
part. Yet, however good your food
may be, its nutriment is destroyed by
indigestion or dyspepsia. You must
prepare for their appearance or prevent
their coming by taking regular doses of
Green's August Flower, the favorite
medicine of the healthy millions. A few
doses aids digestion, stimulates the liver
to healthy action. puriies the blood.
and makes you feel buoyant and vigor-

American Anarchist in England

London, Oct. IA fairly well attend
ed meeting of anarchists was held yes
to-day in a hall in TOttenham Court
road, London, to hear lecture on the
assassination of President Mckinley by
K. Kelly OF New York. The audience,
largely composed Of foreigners, ap
plauded all reference to Saint CzoI-
gosz and his 'meritoriOus" act. The
speakers included Enrico MaIatesta. the
Italian anarchist, who described the as
sassinatiOn 'as deed of heroism."
kelly's lecture was a wild narangue in
denunciatiOn OF Mckinley's career. He
declared that they did not try to Justify
assassination, but rather to explain it
as the outcome Of "the oppression of
workmen by capital" IF the killing of
Mckinley opens the eyes of the capital
lists and induces them to treat the work
ing people BETTER" cried the agitator.
"then great good will have been done"
