Large Force of nsurgents-Twenty.
four Wounded Survivors at Basey.
Washington, Sept. 30.-The war de.
partment has received the following
dispatch from General Chaffee:
Manila, Sept. 29-Adjutant Gen
eral, Washington: Hughes reports
the following from Basey, Southern
Samar: 'Twenty-four men of the
Ninth regiment, United States infan-
try, wounded, have just arrived from
Balangiga, remainder of company
killed. Insurgents secured all COM
pany supplies and all rifles except ~.
Company was attacked during break
fast the morning of Sept. %; company
" strong. Officers Thomas w. Con-
nell, captain; Edward A. Bumpus, first
lieutenant; DR.. R. S. Griswold, major
surgeon, escaped
The news created sensation in Of
fetal circles. 1t was the first severe
reverse that has occurred for long
prepared for news of just this charac-
ter from Samar, in which the revolu-
ton started by Aguinaldo still contin-
ues. Samar is a country about as large
as the state of Ohio and the American
forces of occupation number in all be-
tween 1000 and $500 men. These are
distributed among various posts in
the island, a large number being 10
Gated at the more important centers.
Spain never made any effort to occupy
Samar and it only has been for proba-
bly, three months past that the United
States has undertaken that work. The
latest report made by General Hughes
to the war department was that the
number of insurgent rifles in the isl
and aggregated about 800. The Fill
pinos carried on guerrilla warfare
and operations against them were diff
icult. The disaster to company G Of
the Ninth infantry occurred, 1t is be-
lieved, while it was engaged in an ex-
petition to clear the country of rowing
bands of these insurgents. The fact
that the Americans were attacked
while at breakfast indicates the daring
and pluck of the insurgents. Immedi-
ately upon receipt of the dispatch Ad-
jutant General Corbin cabled General
Chaffee to send a full report of the
fight and list of the casualties. A
well known official in Washington said
he regarded the outbreak as a sequel
to the assassination of President Nc
Kinley. The insurgents possibly be-
lieved the shooting to be the result
of some popular outbreak against the
president. The natives had seized the
opportunity in the Pickering hope of
retrieving some of their lost ground.
Company G was portion of the
Ninth regiment which went to China
at the time of the Boxer outbreak
and which there performed valiant
service. Later the troops went to Ma
Mia and were engaged in provost duty
in that city. During the past summer
q battalion of the Ninth was sent to
Samar. All the officers connected
with the company which was almost
wiped out by the insurgents are named
in General Chaffee's dispatch, there
being no second lieutenant now with
the company. Surgeon Griswold is a
recent addition to the army, having
crossed the Pacific ocean with Adju
tant General Corbin on his recent
trip to the Philippines.

arrival of Sergeant Marllley and one
private at Laning from the fight at
Balangia, where over 40 men of COM
pany G, Ninth infantry, were killed by
insurgents, who attacked the troops
while at breakfast Saturday last. The
men who have reached Laning say that
the officers of the company, who were

killed with the majority of the COM

unprepared, by 400 bolomen, of whom
the Americans killed about 14O. Many
of the soldiers were killed in their
quarters before they had time to grasp
their rifles.
General Hughes is going to the
scene of the disaster and will person

Industrial Features.
OF The Great Cotton Expos
ition.
New Trade Opportunities.

The South Carolina Inter. State and West
Indian Exposition will afford splendid op-
portunity for the extension of industrial and
commercial enterprise in the West Indies
and in Central and South America. These
&C ecnIres have population Of more than
50,O00,O00; living in lands unsuited to the
production of breadStuffS and meat and the
manufacturing OF cloth, put producing in
abundance coffee, sugar, fruit, tobacco and
other articles in general consumption IN the
country. The City of Charleston is admir-
ably adapted to the development of the most
intimate trade relations with these coun-
tries. For example, the distance from Ha-
vana to Cincinnati by way OF Charleston is
800 miles less than by way of Baltimore;
800 miles less than by way OF Ne,c York
and 800 miles less than by way of Boston
CharleStoDh as the same advantage as reg
ards the whole of the West Indies and Cen
tral and South America; and aCith anything
like proper development of railroad lines,
even the Gulf ports, with all their admitted
advantages should net he able to compete
successfully with Charleston as a port
through which to transact n immense West
Indian and South American business. To
Charleston the voyage is less perilouS and
insurance and other charges should be much
less to this port than to the Cults ports AS
compared with these latter ports, Charleston
hss no equal as a desirable outlet for the
products of the great West. BY sailing
vessel the run from Charleston to the Brit
iSh ports is ten days less than from Ner
Orleans, ard this difference alone ought to
lie sufficient to make it 10 the interest of
tie West to trade through Charleston.
The nearneSS of Charleston TO the new
West Indian possession of tue United S;a
tes, the safety of navigation aud the liue
railroad and terminal facilities ot this port
will make this Exposition of special value
and importance to Southern manufacturers
and merchants for the develop Hent of new
and larger trade relations with the v est
Indies. Cuba is an immensely ricn coun-
try, its soil being sc exceedingly fertile that
sugar cane has been grosn in the same fields
for centuries without the a;d of fertilizers,
BoletiÌn mercantil de Puerto Rico. (San Juan, P.R.) 18??-1918, 1901-06-19

and although the industries of that country
have been fearfully devastated by war, TN
der the newer and better conditions of in
dependence there is every reason to believe
that tie development of Cuba within the
near future will far exceed the widest
dreams of the enthusiast. Besides the i'm
mersely rich products of the Cuban sugar
and tobacco fields, the wooded wealth Of
Gu and its orchards anl vineyards offer
splendid opportunities for the Investment
of American capital and development 10y

and without manufacturing establishments

this country
There is a fine field also in Porto Rico
for American occupation not occupation

The Merry Mosquito,
Does 1t With His Little Bill.

DIR. G. f. Finlay, son of Dr. 9. j.
Finlay, who was first to advance the theory
that yellow fever is spread by mosquitoes,
arrived in New York recently from Havana
on the Ward, liner MORO Castle, Speaking
Of HE fathers, discoveries, DIR. Finlay
said
If tie mosquito were exterminated yel
low fever would be unknown. 1t is we'll
known that when frost comes yellow fever
disappears, and there is no more of it until
another crop" Of mosquitoes is hatched.
6 1t is believed that as the experiments
proceed virus will be obtained, either
from a patient or from the mosquitoes,
which will be used successfully in combat
ing the dread disease"
Or. Finlay is immune, and for that rea.
son he was allowed 20 leave tlhe vessel at
Quarantine yesterday and come up to the
city. The steamer, however, will be held
there until the usual Vest Indian quar-
lntine period of five days has expired.
Among the passengers held on board is
