DRIVING THE FORMOSANS.
japanese Use Mountain Guns With
Advantage-Natives
Forced Out.

VICTORIA, B. c., July 2l.-Further
advices of the little war Japan Is wag-
ing against Formosan aborigines were
brought by the steamer Ava Maru yes
terday. The Japanese forces are now
building intrenched lines with block
houses flanking the Formosans, the total
length of the lines to date being 3O7
miles. Following the recent heavy fight
ing, mountain guns have been taken In
as well as machine guns and the moral
effect of these has induced surrenders
of large bodies of natives. The fighting
is mostly in thick forests and mountain
sides, 5000 to 1900 feet above sea level.
and there are difficulties in the way Of
using artillery. The Japanese are mount
ing guns on high hills from which the
native strongholds can be bombarded.
The Japanese forces In five detach-
ments resumed fighting July and drove
the natives from their mountain strong
holds with heavy loss. The Japanese
forces went into action at thirty yards
distance, the natives throwing them
selves on the bayonets.
