New York, Jan. l6.-News of the serious mistake in which force of the government troops fought another body of government troops, thinking it vas composed of Columbian revolution ists, has been brought to Colon by the warship General Pinzon. The mistake happened in the vicinity of Dibullo, near Rio Haca, and resulted in eighteen men killed and six.y-three wounded.
 Captain Merritt of the Pinzon says that his vessel landed 400 men in DibullO to drive back the insurgents. Tho reyOlutionists retreated toward IsioiHacha when the government troops advanced. 1t was decided to divide the government force into two bodies in order to capture the rebels. One of these met the rebels and after a sharp engagement the insurgents retreated. The other body of government troops then came up and, having heard firing, the mistake followed. Thinking it was opposed by rebels each force started dring.
 The fight lasted four hours, when General Folicaco discovered the mis- take and stopped the battle.
