THE BATTLE OF BOcAS.
Liberals Victorious After a Fight
Lasting Two Hours.
BELLlGHRENTS RESPECTED AMERICANS.
The Enemy Moved on the City Towcd
by Launches Taken from Ameri-
can Merchants.

Mobile, Ala, April % The surrender Of
Bocas on April n has been reported by
cable. The fruit steamers Hispania and
Mount Vernon arriving here today bring
news Of the battle and also Of the unsuc
ccssful effort to secure the return Of the
American launches seized by the liberals
The Hispania left BocaS early on the
morning Of the 18th and the Mount Vernon
left Ave hours later. Or, J. u. Terry Of
Greensboro, Ala. who was on the Mount
Vernon witnessed the fight and describes
t. The excitement the day before in Bocas
was intense Upon receipt OF the report
that the liberals were marching on the city
In Overwhelming numbers the American
residents were greatly alarmed and APP
pealed TO the commander or the United
states gunboat Machias for protection Tho
women aud children were speedily taken
aboard the gunboat, hut the men preferred
to remain aud look after thrlr places OF
business To protect these number of
marines were landed and a picket me
thrown around the American business quar-
ter. When the liberals approached they
also threw out picket between the
American Hue aud part OF the city occ1nied
by the conservatives or government troops,
which was done to prevent the conseffa'
tiycs from taking refuge inside the Amri'
can picket line.
At daybrcak the battle began by the III.
erals and for two hours u ragged without
any sign of weakening. The smoke could
be seen from the deck of the Mount Yer.
non and the rattle Of the muskcuy aud
even the cries of those who were woun led
heard. After that the fire became scat
terlng and the conservatives were In re-
treat. Before the Mount Vernon left the
battle was over and but an occasional shot
was heard.
AS the fighting progressed In the early
morning the necessity for protection by
Americans was very great Nearly every
house was seen flying the American lag.
The captain Of the Mount Vernon exhausted
his supply OF flags in his desire to AFFORD
protection. An incident that fastened
the attack on Bocas was the attempt Of
the Machae to recover the launches which
the liberals had taken from the United
Fruit company. The MNchas did not get
the launches. The liberals were ON an
demand Of the Machias with great cour.

WOULD REVISE TARIFF
MR.. ROBERTS or MASSACHUSETTS,

For some time he has been discussing the

Roberts is a protectionist and has al
ways been "A staunch supporter Of high

consistent in support Of protective tariff
legislation. When he first made his prop

ing To a revision Of the tariff he met with
decided opposition. More recently how
ever, he has received much encouragement
and he stated today that he had decided to
circulate a petition calling for n rcpub-
lcan caucus to consider the question
'In my opinion" said he to The Post
correspondent today, 'the time has arrived
when the tnrif should he revised and I be
lievc that this is the judgment Of a ma
jovity Of the republicans in congress. Sons
OF the tariffs now In existence amount to
extortion instead OF protection. Unless
some action is taken by the republicans the
tariff issue will he forced into politics and
result In an endless amount of pickering
and discussion, disturbing business and az
focting trade. I believe that the revision
